Vaccinations have been a long time developed science. Today, they are now one of the heavily debated topics we hear about in the news regularly. I recently discovered an article on one of the children who's parents chose not to vaccinate him.
He was invited to speak in front of Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions where he spoke on the misinformation of the American people. He blamed sites, such as facebook for allowing the spread of so many claims that hold no evidence.
The case has gone viral with Senator Rand Paul saying, “I’m not here to say ‘don’t vaccinate your kids.’ I believe the benefits of vaccines greatly outweigh the risks, but I still do not favor giving up on liberty for a false sense of security.”
This peaked my interest since we have been discussing in class what "liberty" means and how it has become a blanket term for many other things.
