This is just sensationalization of the vaccine and swine flu issue (not you warren but the youtube video) but generally the public seems to blow this issue completely out of proportion. I checked the Mass gov website and it is mentioned there that a person who refuses to get vaccinated will be islolated. But the quarantine and decontamination will require a court order. There could be a case that the person next door to you is having swine flu, then would it not be that you want that person quaratined? If the govt does that against the wishes of that person, then What is wrong if others are prevented from getting the swine flu?

The point here is that if a person refuses to get vaccinated then the govt has the right to quarantine or isolate him and decontaminate him, but a court order is required for that. So I dont think they will just pick up people and quaratine them.

1) to vaccinate or provide precautionary prophylaxis to individuals as protection against communicable disease and to prevent the spread of communicable or possibly communicable disease, provided that any vaccine to be administered must not be such as is reasonably likely to lead to serious harm to the affected individual; and
(2) to treat individuals exposed to or infected with disease, provided that treatment must not be such as is reasonably likely to lead to serious harm to the affected individual.
An individual who is unable or unwilling to submit to vaccination or treatment shall not be required to submit to such procedures but may be isolated or quarantined pursuant to section 96 of chapter 111 if his or her refusal poses a serious danger to public health or results in uncertainty whether he or she has been exposed to or is infected with a disease or condition that poses a serious danger to public health, as determined by the commissioner, or a local public health authority operating within its jurisdiction.


(1) to decontaminate or cause to be decontaminated any individual; provided that decontamination measures must be by the least restrictive means necessary to protect the public health and must be such as are not reasonably likely to lead to serious harm to the affected individual; and
(2) to perform physical examinations, tests, and specimen collection necessary to diagnose a disease or condition and ascertain whether an individual presents a risk to public health.
If an individual is unable or unwilling to submit to decontamination or procedures necessary for diagnosis, the decontamination or diagnosis procedures may proceed only pursuant to an order of the superior court. During the time necessary to obtain such court order, such individual may be isolated or quarantined pursuant to section 96 of chapter 111 if his or her refusal to submit to decontamination or diagnosis procedures poses a serious danger to public health or results in uncertainty whether he or she has been exposed to or is infected with a disease or condition that poses a serious danger to public health.

(d) An officer authorized to serve criminal process may arrest without a warrant any person whom the officer has probable cause to believe has violated an order for isolation or quarantine and shall use reasonable diligence to enforce such order.
(e) Any person who knowingly violates an order for isolation or quarantine shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 30 days and may be subject to a civil fine of not more than one thousand dollars per day that the violation continues.

If your sick your putting the public at risk for infection, by not taking the vaccine youll be carrying a cold thatll make you miserable and maybe kill someone's grandma or toddler. Every strain of the cold can kill, but some strains have been around so we can understand them. That is why YOU STAY HOME FROM SCHOOL WHEN YOUR SICK, so you dont spread it and make everyone else sick and miserable.

But, now that there is a new strain of influenze more people will be sick and more people will spread it. I dont see how a vaccine is such a big deal? We're all vacinnatied at birth.

THERE ARE NO SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS to the swine flu vaccine. I just dont get it. why would our government systematicly kill us. We are the people who pay their taxes, we are the people who give them the vote and give them a job. If they dont do their job WE can fire the person. If there is that much controversy behind something, why wouldnt it gain enough support for action? It seems to me to be alot of bark but no bite.
