Episode 7: Vaccines and the Limits of Liberty

In this episode of Hotwash, we explore the legal and public health foundations of vaccine mandates through the lens of the landmark Supreme Court case Jacobson v. Massachusetts. We unpack how the Fourth Amendment intersects with public health authority, and why vaccination programs have long been considered a legitimate exercise of state power. From smallpox to COVID-19, we trace the balance between individual liberty and collective safety in times of crisis.
