Talking with anti-vaxxers always makes me angry..
..imagine telling to a mom who lived a few centuries ago that we COULD keep our kids from dying with the current technology
"But we don't since someone we know better then decades of research, millions of doctors and professionals"
It's child-abuse, plain and simple

@stux i always wish these people could walk my local cemetery. headstones start around 1700 and for most of it’s history there is one child headstone for every other adult headstone. it’s very chilling. and i am not even a parent

@stux Abigail Thorn, from philosophy tube, has an excellent video on this. She was part of a group of researchers who spoke to a range of folks who chose to not to get vaccinated. They aren’t arseholes, just wrong for often dumb reasons. https://youtu.be/Va0RCgbywGc?si=Icj8ySuwukXqzbqo

@cerny_kocky @stux I was looking at my family tree online (an uncle put a lot of work into that) and if you go back 3 generations the amount of dead children is just horrifying. Also, many women dying along with a newborn. We are so lucky to live today rather than even one century ago, we have no idea.

@stux
For ANYONE contemplating taking ANY MEDICINE or ANY VACCINE, it’s is always a risk versus benefit calculation. For me, the benefits often outweigh the risks…you may come to a different conclusion, and that’s OK.
People who may tell you that everyone SHOULD TAKE the vaccine, or that NO ONE should TAKE the vaccine are BOTH wrong.
It is NOT a one size (one answer) fits all, it is individual decision dependent on circumstances -

@stux My Mother had radical surgery on one leg, lived in an iron lung, and spent the rest of her life disabled. And because of the disability, she was unable to exercise and died in her 70s. But when the polio vaccine came out, she whipped her kids in to get as fast as she could. And none of her kids got polio. Imagine telling her she should avoid vaccinating her kids.
