Too much caffiene  ???   =|

Too many kids who've gotten sick and died locally because some goddamn hippie doesn't believe in vaccines.

You do not have a natural immunity to - let's pick a well understood one - Polio.  Any statement about "a strong immune system" badly misses the definition of immunity.  You may survive it, which may provide a natural immunity for an indeterminate amount of time (it varies by disease).  You may also die.

"I'm a tough guy" is a poor refutation of a well researched, documented, and very publicly tested and proven system.

Who is refuting your system  ???

Make your own healthcare decisions and I'll make mine.
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

Maybe less of an issue with hermits such as yourself  ;) but when people "make their own healthcare decisions" to not vaccinate their kids, it does directly put me and mine at risk.
