Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Why mandatory vaccination is nothing new

Ever since cowpox was found to be effective to develop immunity against smallpox in China in the 17th century, and Edward Jenner developed a smallpox vaccine in Britain in 1796, vaccination has prevented many deaths. Because of the proven efficacy, mandatory vaccination was implemented in today’s Italy as early as during the Napoleon era. Several kinds of vaccination are being mandated in many countries, such as hepatitis B, diphtheria, pertussis, poliovirus, tetanus, influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella. However effective and necessary it is, not everyone agrees to be vaccinated because of their beliefs, lifestyles, and uncertainties about the vaccines. Does the vaccine include the prohibited ingredients in their religion? Was it produced in a way their religion permits? Does it contain any animal product? Recently, a medical facility in the US that achieved a 95% Covid-19 vaccination rate had been taking a very careful and sensible approach toward vaccination such as the flu to its staff. The medical center found that it is essential to motivate the staff to get vaccinated through communication, interaction, and education. Indeed, sharing the goal with participating members is the key to success for any business.

Enjoy reading the article and learning about how mandatory vaccination works.
