All parents should have to go to a 200yr+ old cemetery and be forced to count dead children before and after 1950

Everyone knew someone who had polio. My sister had a friend who got it. My parents were uneasy about summer, because that’s when polio was rife. When we finally got the vaccine the late 50’s, early 60’s, people flocked to get the kids vaccinated.

well, it won’t take long till our cemeteries start filling up again with the graves of children and people decide that maybe vaccines are a good idea

Or maybe the iron lungs that were needed by some polio victims prior to vaccine? Horrific enough?

Please. The science and medical community has stood strong on vaccines. If the media is toxic and people are stupid and gullible, well, maybe that’s their own damn fault. For too long, our system has protected stupid people. To all our detriment

I was born too early to get any of the childhood illness vaccines except polio. Even in the early 60s, parents were afraid of polio, tuberculosis, and more. I have realized my health was damaged permanently by measles, which almost killed my sister.

People who are vaccinated have no dog in this race-that’s why they’re encouraging you to not get vaccinated-it’s eugenics, baby….

You forgot stupidity. Major factor (in a lot of things).

And a lack of education for too many younger generations that BENEFITTED from these vaccines when they were kids. They never HAD to see these diseases. And now SELFISHLY don't offer their own kids these protections.

The inability or unwillingness to curate and evaluate information, i.e. critical thinking, is the problem.

They really seem to only trust their own hate driven, arrogant, selfish, uninformed opinions... children be damned.

Anti vaccines are all lies. There is only one truth. They are scared of needles and will make any lie to keep from getting a shot

Vaccines aren't completely riskless, but their risks are far less than not getting vaccinated.

And a third was the mainstreaming of Anthony Wakefield's bullshit, thanks to celebrity moms like Jenny McCarthy and Suzanne Sommers being platformed by Oprah and bringing Wakefield's nonsense into American living rooms after he had been debunked and dismissed from medical-profession spaces.
