Mandatory vaccination of health care workers: whose rights should come first?

Abstract

What would you do if you knew that by undergoing a minor medical intervention, you might save the life of another person? What if you could potentially save dozens of lives? How risky would the intervention have to be before you would even hesitate? Vaccination is a minor medical procedure that reduces or eliminates the risk of contracting a targeted disease. If the disease is contagious, a vaccine can also reduce the risk of disease in people with whom the vaccinated person comes into contact. Vaccination is credited with preventing more illness and death over the past hundred years than any other medical advance.1
