Mandatory Vaccination

Topic: Mandatory Vaccination
Mandatory vaccination is an ancient practice that has remained a controversial issue due to variance in beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge. Since vaccines were introduced in 1796, there have been people in support of the practice while there have also been other against vaccines. The case has only gotten worse with the government making some vaccines mandatory as the determined compelled those against vaccines to feel like their feelings and rights have been violated by the government. at the same time, the government leaving people exposed and vulnerable to contagious diseases has led to massive negative effects a situation that has compelled the government to go against the wish and desires of some people. There are a lot of reasons shared by both parties and the challenging thing is that all arguments are valid hence creating an intense ethical or moral dilemma on the issue.
The supporters of mandatory vaccinations claims that vaccines save lives since infectious diseases are leading killers for instance polio, tetanus, chickenpox, measles, and the recent corona virus among others (Orient, 2019). Secondly, the supporters claims that vaccines boosts the body’s immune system and this makes the body able to handle even other underlying conditions that could have affected overall wellbeing of the person.
On the other hand, the opposers of mandatory vaccinations claim that vaccines have string side effects and there are many instances they have weakened the body’s natural immune system. This is because the body is created in a manner it has a natural method of fighting diseases and hence vaccines only compromises the original body version (Giubilini, 2021). The second reason shared by those opposing vaccines is that vaccines are made from chemicals and it is for this reason that some people have still suffered other complications to the point of suffering death despite having been vaccinated.
According to MacDonald, et al., (2018); Ethical Egoist is a person that makes a moral decision guided by pure self-interest. On the case of Ethical Egoist, such a person is likely to support the perspective that he/she would feel would suit personal interests on the matter. In the case the ethical egoist would have a direct link and benefit from the act of having people vaccinated, he/she would support the idea not because it is good but because he/she is benefiting. On the other hand, it he/she is not benefiting in any way, he/she is likely to go against the mandatory vaccinations claiming they violate human rights. The reason for this is that ethical egoist are always in support of things they would benefit and can highly all benefits while shadowing negative effects and always talks ill of things they feel are not of any importance to them even though they have a general benefit to others (MacDonald, et al., 2018). Whenever there is no benefit, ethical egoists are more focused on negativity of the issues than the positivity of an issue.
Looking at the mandatory vaccinations moral controversy issue; it is evident there is a conflict between loyalty to self and to community. A majority of the people are more focused on loyalty to self by looking at the gains they would have as individuals as compared to community benefits. As a long as people feel they do not have any direct benefit as individuals, they tend to argue against vaccines overlooking the general benefit the society is having (Orient, 2019). At the same time, many people make use of the knowledge they have, personal beliefs, and attitudes towards an issue to make a decision that would affect a community. Nevertheless, the fact that vaccines affects the society, loyalty to self should be overlooked and people applying good interest for others to make a general decision. This being the case, vaccines should be viewed from the perspective of how they have benefited the society and not a few people as this is the morally acceptable perspective.
Social contract ethicists are people that claim people live together in society in accordance with an agreement that established political and moral rules of behaviors. On the case of mandatory vaccines, the social contract ethicists would support vaccinations since they have proven to have more benefits than challenges a situation that communicates morally and interest of the majority (Giubilini, 2021). The more reason is that social contract ethicists are more focused on morals than self-interests and this means it is the well-being of the society that takes center stage. From this perspective, it is evident there is a collision between personal obligations and national ones. This is because social contract ethicists are nationalists that focus on taking care of national obligations overshadowing their personal obligations despite the desire to have their attitudes and feelings on the issue taken into consideration. This is the action that best suits the situation where personal interests should be left aside while national interests uplifted for the wellbeing of the majority (Orient, 2019). The more reason is that when the interest of the majority is considered, mandatory vaccines would be supported or opposed from morally acceptable arguments and not because a single or few people like or do not like them.

Case Study: Fetal Abnormality
/in Nursing /by adminJessica is a 30-year-old immigrant from Mexico City. She and her husband Marco have been in the United States for the last three years and have finally earned enough money to move out of their Aunt Maria’s home and into an apartment of their own. They are both hard workers. Jessica works 50 hours a week at a local restaurant and Marco has been contracting side jobs in construction. Six months before their move to an apartment, Jessica finds out she is pregnant.
Four months later, Jessica and Marco arrive at the county hospital, a large, public, nonteaching hospital. A preliminary ultrasound indicates a possible abnormality with the fetus. Further scans are conducted, and it is determined that the fetus has a rare condition in which it has not developed any arms and will not likely develop them. There is also a 25% chance that the fetus may have Down syndrome.
Dr. Wilson, the primary attending physician, is seeing Jessica for the first time, since she and Marco did not receive earlier prenatal care over concerns about finances. Marco insists that Dr. Wilson refrain from telling Jessica the scan results, assuring him that he will tell his wife himself when she is emotionally ready for the news. While Marco and Dr. Wilson are talking in another room, Aunt Maria walks into the room with a distressed look on her face. She can tell that something is wrong and inquires of Dr. Wilson. After hearing of the diagnosis, she walks out of the room wailing loudly and praying aloud.
Marco and Dr. Wilson continue their discussion, and Dr. Wilson insists that he has an obligation to Jessica as his patient and that she has a right to know the diagnosis of the fetus. He furthermore is intent on discussing all relevant factors and options regarding the next step, including abortion. Marco insists on taking some time to think of how to break the news to Jessica, but Dr. Wilson, frustrated with the direction of the conversation, informs the husband that such a choice is not his to make. Dr. Wilson proceeds back across the hall, where he walks in on Aunt Maria awkwardly praying with Jessica and phoning the priest. At that point, Dr. Wilson gently but briefly informs Jessica of the diagnosis and lays out the option for abortion as a responsible medical alternative, given the quality of life such a child would have. Jessica looks at him and struggles to hold back her tears.
Jessica is torn between her hopes of a better socioeconomic position and increased independence, along with her conviction that all life is sacred. Marco will support Jessica in whatever decision she makes but is finding it difficult not to view the pregnancy and the prospects of a disabled child as a burden and a barrier to their economic security and plans. Dr. Wilson lays out all of the options but clearly makes his view known that abortion is “scientifically” and medically a wise choice in this situation. Aunt Maria pleads with Jessica to follow through with the pregnancy and allow what “God intends” to take place and urges Jessica to think of her responsibility as a mother

Jones, L. (2019). Mandatory Vaccination. The American Journal of Nursing, 110(3), 13– 13.
According to Jones (2019), taking advantage of the population in fear of an infection or a disease outbreak to try and sway them for a vaccine that is approximately 50% is not appropriate. Vaccination is important to people’s lifestyles and choices but it should not be mandatory because that would be interfering with the people’s rights and freedom. The government needs to roll out the vaccination processes with a good initiative to get numerous people to voluntarily accept the program but not a compulsory process. Jones explained that the fact that there is “interference with people’s rights and freedom it is not right to take part in a program that would deny people the mandatory vaccination” (2019). The inaccuracy of the vaccines and the fact that there is no clear understanding of the negative consequences and reactions of the vaccines makes it a major threat. The concept makes it a major problem because people will not willingly jeopardize their health instead, they do need a healthy standard which will make it easier to change their interactions which is important towards their practice.
Offit, P. A., & Salisbury, D. M. (2021). Childhood vaccination: should it be mandatory? BMJ: British Medical Journal, 344(7858), 18–19.
Offit explained that childhood vaccination should be mandatory because it helps protect people from infections (2021). However, Salisbury thinks that “mandatory issuing of vaccines is not an option instead there are alternative approaches that the government can easily utilize” to help make sure that there is a higher uptake of the vaccinations (2021). It is evident that the government might have the best interests for its people but the research and the effects of the vaccinations are usually not clear and this is what makes numerous people skeptical. The mandatory sense of the vaccine will help get rid of a disease or an outbreak within a short duration and help save millions of lives which is vital for the way that they do advance the health protocols and principles that would shape and change the way that they embrace the concept of vaccinations. The general belief of the most of the public is that the government needs to be forthright with the consequences of the vaccines and all the possible effects. The clear understanding of such impacts will help make it easier to change and improve the appreciation by the public towards the vaccinations.
Lambert, S. B. (2020). Patient Care Drives Mandatory Vaccination. BMJ: British Medical Journal, 337(7680), 1188–1188.
According to Lambert (2020), patient care demands for mandatory vaccination because it seeks to increase its beneficiary of the service. The program runs to make sure that there is a vaccination program that sees them “cut the costs on medical procedures and approaches which is vital for the way that they do achieve their interests (Lambert, 2020)”. It is important to understand that health standards will help make sure that they achieve the best principles and outcomes that would see a conclusive health program. Lambert explained that mandatory vaccination will help cut back on the level of people needing patient care and the rate of illnesses and disease outbreaks that will help improve and change the way that they do connect (2020). It is important to understand that the health principles in the society are to make sure that the population remains healthy and thus it is important to understand the mandatory vaccines will help improve their outcomes. The organization works towards achieving their right outcomes for the majority of its population which is important for the way that they do conduct their goals but it is not the right approach. There is need for democracy in health thus it is important to give people their right to choose which is vital for allowing people to choose to get vaccines or to deter which should be a personal choice.
Cave, E. (2017). Debating the future of mandatory vaccination. BMJ: British Medical Journal, 358.
According to Cave (2017), future vaccination is an important prospect that would help make sure that they do change or improve the health standards across the world. The rate at which there is an increase in the medical risks makes it a major threat thus its mandatory vaccination becoming an important principle. For instance, the recent Covid-19 outbreak that got the entire world on its knees would suffice within a short time with mandatory vaccination. “The previous Spanish flu disease outbreak led to death of millions and vaccinations helped put an end to the disease thus it was a tough lesson (Cave, 2017)”. The possibility of the vaccinations being mandatory is high but it might start with specific directives such as those travelling outside of the country or to certain parts of the country, or healthcare providers, or those working in the public service. The concept will help make sure that there is a minimization of the repeat of the events that threaten the larger population. It is important to acknowledge that the future is seeing the introduction of new principles and laws but it is also a new approach and understanding of the world which influences the democracy level in the country which changes the way that they can improve their interactions and outcomes. Most people will decline mandatory vaccinations with the basis that interferes with their rights which is not appropriate thus it is important to find what works for all the people.
Killmond, M. (2017). Why Is Vaccination Different? A Comparative Analysis of Religious Exemptions. Columbia Law Review, 117(4), 913–952.
Killmond explained that the approach to vaccination is a problem because it is a major political heated topic which makes it integral in all the decision-making processes within the state and country (2017). The vaccination concept is a problem that even led to the Supreme Court to intervene which proves that some people argue on the subject in relation to their religious beliefs. Some religions and denominations have certain demands and directives when it comes to vaccinations and thus it is important to acknowledge and respect such freedoms. People do not need to force the religious beliefs onto the people but instead try to make sure that they do accommodate the interests of the people to help salvage the case. Vaccination is a sensitive topic because it is a political influencing issue and this changes the narrative of numerous people thus it is important to come up with the right prospects to avoid causing numerous issues (Killmond, 2017). Religious exemptions are influential and it is a strong arguing point because it influences a large number of people, because similarly to abortion some religions disagree while other approve which results to a major difference in opinions. It is important to understand that religious background is influential since they do change and have a major influence to the people’s choices and decisions in the society.

Examine Nursing Leadership through Dr. Watson’s curative factors, and processes
/in Nursing /by adminDr. Jean Watson (2012) found “Human caring requires high regard and reverence for a person and human life, a love of humanity, non paternalistic values related to human autonomy, inner wisdom, and freedom of choice” (p. 46). Caring Nursing leaders committed to advancing the science of human caring will lead others to adopt this philosophy. Examine Nursing Leadership through Dr. Watson’s carative factors, and processes, (Table 4-1), including the assumptions underlying nursing science (figure 2-1). How can Nurse leaders sustain human caring science for best clinical practices in the workplace?

[MUSIC PLAYING]
DR. JENNY: Hi there. My name is Dr. Jenny. Can you tell me your name and how old
you are?
DEV CORDOBA: My name is Dev, and I am seven years old.
DR. JENNY: Wonderful. Dev, can you tell me what the month and the date is? And
where are we right now?
DEV CORDOBA: Today is St. Patrick’s Day. It’s March 17th.
DR. JENNY: Do you know where we are?
DEV CORDOBA: We’re at the school.
DR. JENNY: Good. Did your mom tell you why you’re here today to see me?
DEV CORDOBA: She thought you were going to help me be better.
DR. JENNY: Yes, I am here to help you. Have you ever come to see someone like me
before, or talked to someone like me before to help you with your mood?
DEV CORDOBA: No, never.
DR. JENNY: OK. Well, I would like to start with getting to know you a little bit better, if
that’s OK. What do you like to do for fun when you’re at home?
DEV CORDOBA: Oh, I have a dog. His name is Sparky. We play policeman in my
room. And I have LEGOs, and I could build something if you want.
DR. JENNY: I would love to see what you build with your LEGOs. Maybe you can bring
that in for me next appointment. Who lives in your home?
DEV CORDOBA: My mom and my baby brother and Sparky.
DR. JENNY: Do you help your mom with your brother?
DEV CORDOBA: No. His breath smells like bad milk all the time. [CHUCKLES] And he
cries a lot, and my mom spends more time with him.
DR. JENNY: So how do you feel most of the time? Do you feel sad or worried or mad or
happy?
DEV CORDOBA: Worried.
DR. JENNY: What types of things do you worry about?
Case Study: Dev Cordoba
DEV CORDOBA: I don’t know, just everything. I don’t know.
DR. JENNY: OK. So your mom tells me you also have a lot of bad dreams. Can you tell
me a little more about your bad dreams, like maybe what they’re about, how many
nights you might have them?
DEV CORDOBA: I dream a lot that I’m lost, that I can’t find my mom or my little brother.
They seem like they happen almost every night, but maybe not some nights.
DR. JENNY: Now that must feel horrible. Have you ever been lost before when maybe
you weren’t asleep?
DEV CORDOBA: Oh, no. No. And I don’t like the dark. My mom puts me in a night light
with the door open, so I know she’s really there.
DR. JENNY: That seems like that probably would help. Do you like to go to school? Or
would you rather not go?
DEV CORDOBA: I worry about by mom and brother when I’m at school. All I can think
about is what they’re doing, and if they’re OK. And besides, nobody likes me there.
They call me Mr. Smelly.
DR. JENNY: Well. That’s not nice at all. Why do you feel they call you names?
DEV CORDOBA: I don’t know. But my mom says it’s because I won’t take my baths.
[SIGHS] She tells me to, and it– and I have night accidents.
DR. JENNY: Oh, how does that make you feel?
DEV CORDOBA: Sad and really bad. They don’t know how it feels for their daddy to
never come home. What if my mom doesn’t come home too?
DR. JENNY: Yes, you seem to worry about that a lot. Does this worry stop you from
being able to learn in school?
DEV CORDOBA: Well, [SIGHS] my teacher is, all the time, telling me to sit down and
focus. And I get in trouble for [SIGHS] looking out the window. And she moved my chair
beside her desk, but I don’t mind because Billy leaves me alone now.
DR. JENNY: Billy. Have you ever hit Billy or anyone else?
DEV CORDOBA: No, but I did throw my book at him.
DR. JENNY: Hmm.
DEV CORDOBA: [CHUCKLES]

DR. JENNY: What about yourself? Have you ever hit yourself or thought about doing
something to hurt yourself?
DEV CORDOBA: No.
DR. JENNY: OK. Well, Dev, I would like to talk to your mom now. We’re going to work
together, and we’re going to help you feel happier, less worried, and be able to enjoy
school more. Is that OK?
DEV CORDOBA: Yes. Thank you.
MISS CORDOBA: Hi.
DR. JENNY: Thank you, Miss Cordoba, for bringing in Dev. I feel we can help him. So
tell me, what is your main concerns for Dev?
MISS CORDOBA: [SIGHS] Well, he just seems so anxious and worried all the time, silly
things like I’m going to die, or I won’t pick him up from school. He says I love his brother
more than him. He’ll throw things around the house, and gets in trouble at school for
throwing things.
He has a difficult time going to sleep. He wants his lights on, doors open, gets up
frequently. And he’s all the time wanting to come home from school, claims stomach
aches, and headaches almost daily. He won’t eat. He’s lost three pounds in the past
three weeks. Our pediatrician sent us to you because he doesn’t believe anything is
physically wrong.
Oh, and I almost forgot. He still wets the bed at night. [SIGHS] We’ve tried everything.
His pediatrician did give him DDVAP, but it doesn’t seem to help.
DR. JENNY: Hmm. OK. Can you tell me, any blood relatives have any mental health or
substance use issues?
MISS CORDOBA: No, not really.
DR. JENNY: What about his father? He said that he never came home?
MISS CORDOBA: Oh, yes. His father was deployed with the military when Dev was
five. I told Dev he was on vacation. I didn’t know what to tell him. I thought he was too
young to know about war. And his father was killed, so Dev still doesn’t understand that
his father didn’t just leave him. [SIGHS] I just feel so guilty that all of this is my fault.
DR. JENNY: Miss Cordoba, you did the right thing by bringing in Dev. We can help you
with him.
Attached below is the template to use and an example of how to answer the questions
Public Health Law and Legislation
/in Nursing /by adminBased on the following question, I need you to help respond to the attached 4 peers’ posts in 150 words each.
Question on Public Health Law and Legislation
Question(s):
Visit the CDC Public Health Law News Archives, and choose one of the reports.
In no more than 300 words, discuss:
Why did you choose your report?
Why is this particular report important to society and how it fits in the Dahlgren-Whitehead model?
Using what you have learned through your nursing education, what are your thoughts about how you might affect legislation around this issue at the local level or above?
Visit: NCSL. (2021, April, 26). State Action on Coronavirus (COVID-19). National Conference of State Legislatures. Choose one state that passed a piece of legislation regarding health care and Covid-19.
Why did you choose this legislation?
What does the legislation provide for?
Healthcare policy (both COVID and non-COVID).
/in Nursing /by adminFor this Discussion Board, please complete the following: 300–500 words
The healthcare world and the world overall is now a very different place since the COVID-19 global pandemic uprooted people’s daily lives. Healthcare policy had to change on a dime in many places. For example, hospitals fearing the worst limited the visitation of family members to those loved ones struck with illness (both COVID and non-COVID). New parents had to take turns seeing their newborns. Telehealth has taken on a new leading role in many healthcare organizations because face-to-face visits were no longer acceptable due to nationwide lockdowns. Many organizations did this to mitigate risk and follow strategic national policy. Your organization has decided to take a stand to implement the same strategy. Its policy is to not allow any visitors during a lockdown.
In this class debate, you are going to be placed on a side of the new visitation policy. Your task is to argue for the new policy. You are tasked with presenting your case to the class on why the policy should stand. Cover the following:
Consider how this has changed the way that you view healthcare access and equality.
Consider the risk to the organization.
Consider the impact of the decision.
Should there be exceptions to the policy? Why or why not?
Use data and evidence from literature to support your argument.
Remember that in healthcare administration, you are often tasked with supporting unpopular policy; it is not your job to change this policy; rather, your job is to defend the side that you are on respectfully.
Utilitarianism · Egoism · Relativism . Absolutism
