The '''vaccine police''' are people who insist on mandatory [[vaccination]] or mandates which require vaccination for basic activities such as travel or attending school.
The vaccine police typically engage in fear-mongering about diseases which [[vaccine]]s supposedly protect against. Many of these disease have not been seen in decades, or have not been serious illnesses for a half-century.
The vaccine police also distort history as a way of further advancing their agenda, as in claiming that:
* [[FDR]] had polio (he did not)
* the measles vaccines caused the sharp decline in mortality from the measles (that mortality had declined to nearly zero before the vaccine was even introduced)<ref>https://physiciansforinformedconsent.org/measles/dis/</ref>
The vaccine police disparage and underpublicize cheaper, safer ways to avoid contracting a disease, such as using [[hydroxychloroquine]] as preventive and early treatment for [[COVID-19]], and simply adopting [[abstinence]] to avoid [[sexually transmitted diseases]].
