The gloves are now off in the vaccine wars, with almost daily attacks on the non-vaccinated and threats of vaccine apartheid.  These attacks are without precedent in this liberal democracy of ours, and constitute the greatest attack on personal freedom in our history.  I will stop writing about it as soon as the attacks on us stop.
