Facts
The flu vaccine causes more deaths per year than chicken pox.
The direct injection of RSV immunoglobulin, commonly known as the "RSV vaccine" would prevent 16x more deaths than the flu vaccine does, but is too expensive.
There is a vaccine for the plague, and that is why it is no longer an epidemic.
Ebola is caused by vaccines.
There is a vaccine for autism, but it causes mumps.


Opinions
Vaccines do not contain thimerosal, a known toxin.
If you snuck up on your neighbor's kid and cut open his skull, you would be arrested.  But when brain surgeons do it, and charge hundreds of thousands of dollars, it considered "medicine."
99% of vaccines do not cause autism (HT JJ1000).
Every pedi has seen healthy kids become sick physically & mentally hours after a vax (HT Baryochai)
Vaccines cause cancer, infertility, astma, adhd etc (HT Baryochai)

Is it wrong to want to make an informed decision about vaccines?

All it takes is for that parent to see their kid with any preventable disease (chickenpox, measeles, e.t.c) and they will have themselves to blame for not vaccinating. To see your kid in pain knowing you could have prevented it......

Never mind the numerous horrific mumps outbreaks in jewish communities which may leave many couples childless R"L.  With noone to blame but their vile parents.

Unfortunately the way herd immunization works relies on everyone getting immunized.  Vaccines aren't perfect for everyone so you also need the herd to stamp it out.
Otherwise we're all vulnerable.

Problem is we're too far removed from the The 1918 Flu Pandemic.

So we should just pass a law forcing all those who don't want to vaccinate into quarantine together. After a few years, problem solves itself...

If someone never gets the flu should they still get vaccinated?

If you 'never get the flu' it only means that your body isn't affected by it, but you can still carry and spread it to others.

there is no reason to assume that you are immune.
If you have very little contact with other human beings and kids we'll give you a pass.;)

I am not immune. I am the only one in my family that does not get the shot. If I get the shot and then get the flu you know I will have to blame the shot.  :P

They dont give it to pregnant women and babies because it is a live virus.
