It simply is not against Catholic teaching. The faith is not a rubberstamp for exemption. Treating it like one will make it will build resentment to accommodate other important practices.

You gotta make a better argument about how every vaccine is rejected.

There are several of them made differently. Vaccinations are not intrinsically against the practice of the faith.

Every human being of sound mind has a duty to God and self to take reasonable care of their health. If it also benefits others, which is usually the case, great.

But unproven treatments are not ordinary and there are many reasons one can, and even should, refuse suçh experimental treatments. No one has the right to make such decisions for others, not doctors or bishops or bureaucrats or presidents.

That also means though that if one refuses to take treatment, they have a serious duty to protect others by masking, isolating or whatever appropriate.

Just about every ChinaVirus "vaccine" is tainted by abortions, except the Johns Hopkins candidate and maybe 1-2 others. That there is enough for a real Catholic to claim an exemption.

Odd, my priest disagrees. And he gave me a letter explaining his belief that refusing the vaccine is a moral duty.
