If our entire country were to take the never VAX stance to avoid vaccines disease would be running rampant throughout our society. Unfortunately, in an instance with a new disease where there is no immunity or foundation of vaccination to stand on the never VAXor‘s could significantly delay heard immunity and our country‘s ability to move past this pandemic. One could argue it is a very selfish and self-serving decision.
