In a world without government, but where vaccinations are effective1, how would anarchists achieve a near 100% vaccination rate?

    i know anarchism as “chaos” and “without organization”

    That’s called anomy. Anarchy is the absence of domination, not the absence of order.

    (also who decides what is and isnt an unnecessary hierarchy?)

    Nobody. No hierarchy is necessary. I think there’s a lot of confusion around this expression. Some anarchists refer to “necessary hierarchy” as a power imbalance that’s not unjust, that is, which does not imply domination/exploitation.

    For example, someone may have more knowledge of a specific topic, or may have more physical force to achieve a certain task. It’s a form of power, but does not necessarily lead to injustice.

    For example, a teacher does not need authority over students, just like a doctor.
