Who cares about liberal vs conservative? Trying to ensure employee safety is just the responsible thing to do for an employer.

Vaccination has, sadly, become a partisan issue in the United States.

We can't pretend that a reasonable appeal to public safety will work to convince people of the merits here, when there are so many politicians and entertainers who are successfully using opposition to the vaccine as a wedge issue to further their own selfish agendas.

I feel like it's really only partisan for anti-vaxxers. For others, it's the same as stuff like building codes, or health codes for restaurants: just a common-sense protection.

That's definitely the outer surface of the issue, you're right. Some issues have deeper things going on.

It's 'deeper' for the anti-vax community, for everyone else it's just a basic employee/public safety issue.

"Everyone else" is pretty broad and the kind of categorization I wouldn't expect from someone with an open mind

Was there a larger point to using that personal attack?
