Can we start a class action lawsuit in the international criminal court for the USA running a biological warfare program now?
“Hey, look at those leopards over there…”
Really hoping that this outbreak can knock some sense into these idiots.
Unfortunately that’s not likely because it’s hard to cure selfish dipshit diaease.
Any exemptions that aren’t medical should be illegal. This is literally the most contagious disease on the planet and it kills kids. If kids are going to go to crowded places together, like schools, they should be required to be vaccinated against measles.
And the other shoe is to hold the parents accountable.
No medical reason for exemption and little Johnny just got his class sick?
I dunno, you lose your right to vote or something. Or you have to be someone’s butler.
Absolutely. And it should be considered manslaughter + neglect if a child dies because some parents refused to vaccinate.
Yes, but my spaghetti sky God says that vaccines make marinara taste bad so my reptilian brain is scared. What can I dooooo
This really is the simplest solution.
Also, the government can’t really do a lot about it because of free speech laws, but like Google and Facebook and so on that gleefully spread anti-vax nonsense should be held accountable. Youtube could just refuse to host anti-vax videos. But I guess all they care about is money, and not enough people are angry enough to start hanging directors and c-suites yet.
Glad I don’t leave the house anymore.
Oregonian, here. Yeah, we’ve got our loonies on this issue. Bunch of people convinced that the MMR vaccine causes autism because of that murderous fucker Andrew Wakefield.
Let’s not forget to thank Oprah Winfrey for platforming Playboy centerfold/medical doctor Jenny McCarthy and her anti-vax nonsense in the 2000s also.
You’re thinking too small. Anti-vaxx is literally a billion dollar industry, held up not only by the grifters and snake oil sellers, famous or not, but also social media and tech companies, and even members and or funders of our governments:
Antivaxxers love to class themselves as small fish going against big pharma.
Yup, like so many other exploitative and oppressive groups (conservatives, transphobes, racists, and so on), part of their schtick is playing the victim not only for the sake of their own cognitive dissonance, but also to use as a veil of innocence and obliviousness to hide their true intentions behind.
True, the oppressors are really good at controlling the narrative as they have resources to keep up the lies and half-truths.
Don’t forget Larry King. That guy famously gave her a lot of airtime in front of a lot of eyeballs.
He was famous for be lazy AF and never fact checking his guests.
And Jim Carey.
Oh no, really?
Interesting.
Thankfully the vaccine has at least 90% efficacy if not more, so it’s unlikely that unvaccinated people could still give you measles if you’ve been vaccinated. (https://www.cdc.gov/measles/about/index.html https://www.cdc.gov/measles/data-research/index.html)
Sucks for those who genuinely can’t have it though, and rely on herd immunity
What most people don’t realize is that childhood vaccinations don’t actually last forever. It’s been probably 30 years since I completed most of my vaccinations as a toddler, but when I got my most recent job (at a healthcare provider), they tested me and I needed booster for some childhood vaccines due to losing immunity.
Vaccines totally don’t work, the limes everyone was eating just didn’t have enough juice in them.
The tragedy here is that these idiots are hurting kids. Like, hey, if you’re a grown ass adult who’s afraid of microchips, don’t get vaxxed, I hope you catch whatever it is and fucking die. But doing this to your child is abuse.
I’m not going to disagree with you. I just want to point out that if they manage to get their offspring infected when they also contract something… They have a chance of winning a Darwin award…
I’m not saying any of that is a good thing.
Can’t live with autism if you’re not alive.
Stop blaming vaccines! It’s clearly caused by insufficient prayer!
Ever since I started drinking Holy water twice a day I’ve been feeling so much more hydrated. Explain that science!
Lucky. Can’t drink holy water cause it gives me a burning sensation. No idea why.
