      I think they are trying the “let them die” approach. Bold strategy, let’s see how it works out.

        Fortunately/unfortunately well so far. Very few have died from this so, like COVID, they’ll probably feel justified that they were either stuck at home for a week or in the hospital only a few days and completely avoided that “dangerous shot”.

    Stupid adults being stupid and paying for their stupidity is one thing. But 1) this affects their kids, and 2) this can affect my kid (<1yo) and anyone who can’t get vaccinated because they’re immunocompromised/etc.

      I empathize with the immunocompromised but I think the children of the antivaxxer’s that survive are all bound to develop an incurable case of survival bias.

      Even fully vaccinated people are at risk. A vaccinated man in Colorado was just diagnosed with measles. Of course, the severity of his illness will be greatly diminished by being vaccinated, but still.

      Americans give their kids guns year after year after school shooting after school shooting.

      Stupid is in the Constitution.

    Bleak in the US, rest of the world still believes in vaccines and medical science.
