But also, vaccines don't cause autism.

Even IF they did, the incidence is obviously insanely low, and yes... if someone would rather have a dead child than an autistic one, they shouldn't have children at all.

Remember when Trump said Obama should resign if one American died of Ebola?

Killing your kids is the best way to show “big pharma” who’s boss!

-A bunch of idiots who like to performatively "protect" children while not actually giving a single fuck about children

as they “protect” women by legislatively denying women crucially necessary health care procedures

Well, I'm going to do it whether the women like it or not. I'm going to protect them.

Well what doesn't kill you, makes- oh. Well, if it doesn't kill you, then it makes you-

Oh, well, never mind then. There are absolutely no redeeming qualities when it comes to having measles.

It does no good to screenshot without a source.

I'll feel a lot safer after all the stupid people die.

They're risking MY life without getting my permission.

Scrollone@feddit.it · 12 pts · 1y (1 reply)

The sad thing is that those children were innocent. It's their parents that are stupid.

SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 1y

That should be parental abuse. Why isn't it?

A "free" country?

Not when your decision hurts kills others.

PattyMcB@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y

Until it spreads so much that vaccinated kids who didn't get immunity start dying.

SeaJ@lemm.ee · 8 pts · 1y

We are on track to have the worst measles cases in decades.

Omg, RFK attended the funeral and wasn't murdered? What kind of place welcomes someone like him after a kid dies from a preventable disease??

Ledericas@lemm.ee · 4 pts · 1y

RFK

technically rfk is just a empty husk, controlled by his worms, the worms already ate his brain, kinda like that alien in MIB.

This kind:

"“It’s not as bad as they show in the news,” said a woman in a nearby park, who did not wish to be identified. Children who are vaccinated are “not as healthy,” she added"

If only they could invent a medication people could take to prevent getting it...

Unless the parents get behind bars for child endangerment.

This wouldn't be a problem if the vaccines weren't so risky.
