I'm thinking it's funny. When people go hike and hurt themselves, get drunk and injure themselves or others or vacation in hostile territory they're the ones who didn't exercise common sense, should have known better and got what was coming to them. 

...But, when people get a preventable disease, like mumps, suddenly it's the government's responsibility to instill panic and go door-to-door forcing people to do something that is very cheap and easy for them to do on their own.
