Discussion 4

Post a developed set of public policy principles that represent a balance between the individual and collective concerns as you address one of the case studies (free speech and social media versus dangers presented by such media; public health versus calls for individual freedom to decide related to masks and/or vaccinations).

Support your postings and responses with specific references to the resources.
