Why do some folks think that they have to go out of their way to learn how to legally decline a vaccine?
The usual suspects…
How to Legally Decline a Vaccine
Of course, since vaccine mandates don’t actually force anyone to get vaccinated and protected, you don’t necessarily need to look for any extra legal ways to decline your vaccines.
You can simply say no, or in the case of vaccine mandates that require vaccines for school attendance or an employment requirement, if you don’t meet an existing exemption, you can make alternative plans.
But no, you are not going to get any kind of ‘Get Out of Vaccine Free Card’ because of some plan you read about on Facebook.
In fact, when presented with such a plan to decline vaccines, your health care provider, since they are bound by the Hippocratic Oath, should:
- Ask “is there a possibility that you could get a vaccine-preventable disease if you decline a vaccine?”
- Also ask, “is there a possibility that the vaccine-preventable disease could be life-threatening?”
And then, if you don’t have any contraindications to getting the vaccine, since the answers to the above two questions are almost certainly “yes,” then instead of declining the vaccine, you should get vaccinated and protected!
After all, vaccines are safe, with few risks, and are obviously necessary.
