I must say, this does seem a wee bit intrusive to me. It certainly intrudes on the rights of local government to govern locally.

Meanwhile . . . .

The person in question has defended himself by claiming that he was trying to educate his constituents. I tend to agree with Emma Vigeland’s point that “some questions are so illegitimate” that they don’t deserve to be asked, let along answered.

At the Des Moines Register, Tim Johnson asks the nay-sayers why they are saying nay to COVID vaccintations. A snippet:

If it’s a religious objection you have, I ask you, if a preacher or missionary is doing God’s work, why can’t an epidemiologist? Or a geneticist or a lab technician? They all have the same goal to help humankind. The lab people are not preaching, but their work is saving souls. Saving them by keeping us alive.

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.
