When should personal freedom yield to the common good? - 3 views

  •  
    Here is an article about people having personal freedom to not take the vaccine and risk peoples lives around them. There is also the argument of people should abide the government restrictions, and wear masks during the pandemic.
  •  
    It seems you have found a good article with sound resources for information and in depth analysis on the human trend of morality and how it relates to the issue at hand of personal freedom in the midst of the pandemic. Its interesting to see the history behind the debate of "common good" in Typhoid Mary and how her story relates to todays issues. Though the article shows a bias, it is clear that they cite their sources and are presenting information clearly for the reader to form an opinion albeit the article is hoping the reader forms an opinion of questioning the ways in which Americans choose to embrace their personal freedoms. Great find!
  •  
    I love this article, it explains both sides. People who want to follow government regulations and those who don't. I think personal freedom is a big thing, we all have our own opinions and feelings. It's important for everyone to respect others wishes and feelings.
