Your perspective is valid, but it exists on a continuum. It's clearly possible for the "I have the right to be the next Typhoid Mary" perspective to be carried too far. That's the whole dilemma in a nutshell... how far is too far? I'm not qualified to say, and it looks like you aren't either, given the lack of actionable guidance you're offering.

"Leave people the hell alone" isn't an option, because you live in a populated, civilized nation rather than on a deserted private island. (I will note, however, that they won't shoot you at the border for trying to leave.)
