Full legal liability as solution to antivax?

You spread some disease that's preventable by vaccine? Everyone you give it to can sue for medical bills, lost wages, wrongful death, etc.

Edit: topic here is vaccine preventable diseases that are not permanently transmissible. Not permanent & permanently transmissible infections which we know this kind of system is bad for handling. It's not necessarily a good idea for topic at hand either, but they're very different.

@dalias from HIV prevention, we know that penalizing transmission is a very bad idea.

@sophieschmieg That's in the absence of vaccine or clearing of the infection. Completely different situation.
