At Psychology Today Blogs, Paul Thagard argues forcefully that there is such a thing as the common good and that it extends to actions to protect public health. Here’s a bit of his piece:

. . . the rights to freedom and privacy are never absolute. If you drive at double the speed limit down a crowded street, the police may stop you, demand to see your driver’s license, and give you a dangerous driving charge that can land you in jail. Violations of your freedom and privacy are justified because of the high probability that your behavior will cause great harm to others. The avoidance of harms and the provision of benefits justifies many other limitations on personal freedom and privacy, including laws against murder, income tax, vaccinations for schoolchildren, antipollution laws, and gun control.

Thom argues that Republicans are trying to sabotage vaccination efforts so as to discredit Democratic candidates. (Frankly, I wish that Thom’s arguments could be harder to credit. But every time you think Republicans can’t go lower, they do.)

In related news, we got our second Pfizer shots yesterday. The process was extremely well-organized, as it was when we got our first shots.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
