There is some studies showing a link to SSRI use in utero. How significant of a link, I can't say.

And it's not a direct comparison to "gun control" as there's a difference between responsible gun owners (only shooting bullets downrange at safe places) and irresponsible gun owners (shooting through trees into houses, etc.)

On the other hand, there is no responsible unvaccinated person, unless they segregate themselves from society entirely. Because you cannot see pathogens, and they will already be contagious before they even have symptoms, they don't have an ability "to be responsible". Even if you wash your hands, and avoid sick people, and you're very clean, you could still be shedding a virus at a time when you're around newborns or infants that will kill them, prior to you even being aware you're sick. (Typhoid mary comment on point).

It's more akin to people asking for gun control if your guns, in theory, could start shooting bullets at people without your awareness.
