  1. I don't think that is fair because you cant make somebody get their vaccine.

  2. I think it is fair. His religious beliefs don't say anything about it specifically. He didn't want to take it because he thought it was from an abortion. But the people who made it said that it isn't. He doesn't have any reason to not take it.

  3. I do think it is fair because in most cases you cannot force somebody to get the vaccine but they recommend you get the vaccine to prevent the spread of the chicken pox.

  4. I think it is fair because not getting a vaccine would let you become sick from something preventable and if you do get sick from it then you can spread it to almost anyone you get near and then they could spread it too.

  5. I believe this is not fair because it should be his choice to get a vaccine or not. Nobody should be forced to do something they don't want to. That is like bullying and schools want to decrease it but how you going to stop bullying if you are doing the very thing you don't want. I get that you want to be cautious of the disease but you shouldn't use force on others, that is their decision so let it be.

  6. I don't think it's fair however when you think about it from another perspective it's not fair that other people would possibly suffer from so contagious as the chicken pox. Even though the boy may not have chickenpox it's a risk that other parents dont want to worry about. If the parents have already paid and helped to make sure their kid is safe from something like a disease, why would you want all that to go to waste. If im in a room full of students who have been vaccinated and one hasn't i would want to stay away to ensure health of myself and im sure other people would want to as well. It doesn't make you a bad person if you haven't been vaccinated. I think it just makes you dangerous in a way.

  7. Overall this is fair, he was mislead from what the vaccine was for meaning his justification was adulterated.

  9. I don't think it's fair that his school is limiting his school activities just because he refused to take the vaccination. You shouldn't be obligated and should be given a decision on what you want to put in their body and given the same opportunities everyone else have if you choose not to get it. So I think he is doing the right thing.

  10. It is fair that that the school is limiting the kid's activities due to him not receiving the chicken pox vaccine. The health department is looking out for the protection of other students against chicken pox. The health department ultimately made the decision to keep children who have not received the chicken pox vaccine out of school and from participating in extra-curricular activities because of an outbreak. This is not motivated because of discrimination due to his religious beliefs as he and his father have claimed, when in reality the department made this decision to keep others safe.

  12. It is fair and the school did the right thing. He can go to another school if he doesn't want the vaccine.

  13. I think it is fair because the school is making sure that the majority of the students are safe. if he refuses to take the shot then he should be able to deal with whatever comes with that decision. I understand that he may feel hes being pressured or set up but its as simple as taking a shot. he has no health concerns that would prevent him from taking it

  14. Its half and half. There making a student get a vaccination that sometimes doesn't even work,but at the same time the school is making sure there students are safe.

  16. I think its fair that school is limiting what the students because in any activity you have to communicate, touch, and you have to move around to get to wear you go to go.And with all of that being said the littlest thing that student mad do or does could greatly affect any student in his area

  18. The school did the right thing. They have a certain set of rules to attend, and if they are not followed then they have the right to keep students from participating in activities. The student made a choice to not get vaccinated, so he can't get upset at the consequences.

  19. It is not fair because you can not force someone to get vaccinated. His father said that they do not believe in the chickenpox vaccine, so they shouldn't give him consequenses for that. The school can not push a vaccine on someone. The kid has the right to sue the school for doing that. It isn't fair to him or his family.-Amber
