Why are there people old enough to be mothers who are unvaccinated? I thought it was just people whose brains were addled by the pandemic not vaccinating their kids.

This is how you start the zombie apocalypse

Sadly, the anti vax nonsense goes back much further than covid.

Or stop it after it starts.

How to use wilful ignorance to ruin the lives of your children.

Because we are old. Wasn’t the Andrew Wakefield nonsense paper from 1989? Oops no, it was 1998.

Unrelated, beginning of his Wikipedia entry is to die for:

Andrew Jeremy Wakefield (born 3 September 1956[4][5][a]) is a British fraudster, anti-vaccine activist, and disgraced former physician. He was struck off the medical register for “serious professional misconduct”[8] due to his involvement in the fraudulent 1998 Lancet MMR autism study that falsely claimed a link between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and autism.

Something far worse.

I remember being a young adult (I’m 38 now) and hearing about anti-vaxxing in the media. In the early -mid 2000s Jenny McCarthy and I think a few other celebrities were on the “vaccines cause autism” train.

Imagine a standard zombie apocalypse movie. Someone comes up with a vaccine, but instead of the ending showing helicopters and planes transporting them, happy people leaving ships, people cheering in camps and getting mass-vaccinated, a new war just starts. Armed antivaxxers destroying labs, produced vaccines and vaccination centers, and the entire humanity just fucking dies.

THE END

Not vaccinating your kids is child abuse and she be prosecuted as such including losing your kids.

Yup, and 1998 was 27 years ago, that’s a perfectly reasonable age for motherhood. My kids were born when I was younger than that.

Now, that’s a statistic that conservatives could get behind. Unfortunately it’s not convenient for them. So they won’t.

You should learn to read

Fuck every last anti-vaxxer - dangerous idiots, all.

I get that these kids were born with measles because their mothers weren’t vaccinated but that doesn’t change my statement. The mothers should have been vaccinated when they were kids. Still child abuse.

Don’t forget Drug Fraud’s daughter is an anti-vaxxer.

Adults were once children.

We still haven’t reaped the full outcome of that. Still plenty of parents to be who haven’t had kids yet who fell for that BS.
