We also don't really know how effective this vaccine is in the first place. Not knowing the longterm effects is unacceptable.
I learned from a friend who has daughters who might be affected by this edict that it is actually a simple matter to opt out of this requirement, even for "personal reasons", so the situation isn't quite as bad as the news article made it seem. Nevertheless, for a usually do-nothing governor with no medical background to suddenly make such a drastic law on his own is reprehensible.
Interesting that you have used thalidomide as an example. The consequences of that drug, given to combat morning sickness in early pregnancy (when the fetus is most vulnerable to any drug effects) were the reason that prenatal drug testing is done today. Prior to that time nobody suspected (why, I don't know!) that drugs taken by expectant mothers might have effects on their unborn offspring.
My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog thinks I am.
