I agree with reconmike, when the parasite can survive outside the host, then it should be afforded separate entity status. Until then it is a growth and excising it is no more murder than removing a tumor.
I can see the reason behind forcing drivers to wear seatbelts, it costs the government money to scrape people off the pavement, not to mention how it screws up traffic. And in a socialized health care system like canada, it does cost the government money to deal with peoples tobacco related illnesses.
