Vaccinate or home school. How hard is that?
Unfair to kids with legitimate medical exclusion.
An edge case that can be addressed.
Show me a legitimate medical exclusion that is recognized by actual doctors and is peer reviewed.
Some people are allergic to the ingredients. From what I remember, it's rare but it happens.
Yeah… just gonna tag you as antivax and be sure to bring it up later to mock you.
Here's the CDC from 2024 Allergies to ingredients are a big one, and for the MMR (because what the fuck why is measles back vaccinate the 99.999 whatever percent of kids who can get vaxxed ffs) severely immunocompromised kids can't get it (and probably can't do much with whatever vaccines they can get). The fact that some kids legitimately can't get vaccinated makes it more important for the rest of them to get vaccinated because of herd immunity.
Let’s just lock the yanks inside until they all die.
Antivaxxer who?? Why do we need to lable people based on feelings? I hate this lame Lemmy culture. Do better.
Leave Lemmy then. People need to be reminded they’re a trash antivax piece of shit.
I’ll tag you too cutie.
That's cute with your 3 month-old account. 😂 Tag away, I got you too.
Hellooo. Need a mirror?
yes but they will become carriers and destroy herd immunity
Child abuse
This is absolutely frustrating and yes, people should know better. But as our government becomes less trustworthy generally, and the business world increasingly turns into a carnival of cynical scams, it becomes harder and harder for members of the public to figure out who they should be listening to.
I just hope we find some way to turn things around and also just turn down the noise without everything collapsing first. Not sure how to accomplish that, though.
Ban them from grocery stores, markets, and food pantries
Next headline: Michigan school-age children drop to 10-year low
bringing back measles, mumps, rubella, Diptheria, and making chickenpox more prevelant(since it hasnt been completely eliminated in the us), and tetanus.
are they having a measles outbreak, or is that Minnesota?
Is coughing on children back in style?
America is dead lmfao.
Nah man we're smart. Natural selection hasn't been a part of humans lives for so long morons breed with morons that in the wild would have been eaten LONG before reproducing. So they're doing the US a favor in a way.
I don’t disagree. Fewer antivax bloodlines is a benefit to humanity. What little we have left.
95% vaccination is required for herd immunity for measles. 0.9% is a big part of 5%.
So what WAS your intention then? Lay it out, maybe we can undo those down votes.
