This article comes out of Canada, so most Americans will discount it reflexively. The idea of mandatory anything, especially regarding medicine, is a third rail to American culture, the antithesis to personal liberty.
But truth is truth, and science is science, and people dead of diseases don't have a lot of enthusiasm for personal liberty. The legal principle that "Your right to swing your arms ends just where the other man’s nose begins"[1] applies here. Your refusing to be vaccinated (or to vaccinate your children) directly impacts me and my own loved ones as the herd immunity is diluted.
'Vaccination, like paying taxes, is a civic duty; it is part of the social contract. Opting out for personal beliefs should not be an option.'
Yes, the "social contract" is another of those things that Americans seem ambivalent about, when push comes to shove. Which may be fine over little things, but when it comes to epidemics, it's murderously shortsighted.

Yes, your freedom ends where someone else freedom begins.
There are a lot of limits imposed by society (mostly in form of law) that prevents someone's reckless behaviours from harming others.
While you can argue having seatbelts enforced is a limit on your personal freedom (technically you are endangering yourself so it's your own business, but then emergency services are forced to deal with it if you have an accident) a speed limit, or having to obtain a driving license is a perfectly reasonable thing to enforce.
So, you don't want to vaccinate and you die from a preventable disease – your business. Is this contagious? It is my right to demand you don't get it in the first place by vaccinating.
