Why are people debating measles vaccines again? The covid vaccine debate was stupid but I could kinda understand the concern there in comparison to this

Listen, a playboy bunny listened to her mommy instincts and came to the conclusion that vaccines caused autism.
If that's not proof enough that vaccines are bad then I don't know what is.
Anti-Science sentiment. Scientists are their enemy, so anything science is bad.
'cept if they need it in particular
RFK JR has OF COURse saying it isnt neccesary to vax against measles, he did only partially backtrack that by only adminstering 2000doses lol. remember RFK JR is the one that resulted in 86 children deaths in samoa.
What happened in Samoa? I assume RFK is that american health secretary that looks like he's a demon in a human suit?

The MMR (measels, mumps, rubella) vaccine is the one Wakefield was against. The OG of the vaccines cause autism movement.
It all goes back to the BS "vaccines cause autism" thing.
The antivax movement goes back farther than Wakefield and the "causes autism" thing. That's just when it became really popular.

i had no sympathy for anti-vax adults during covid, their choice to risk their lives. But children with basic vaccinations? their parents are taking the risk and the ones that didn't choose are getting the consequences
One side takes the risk, the other side faces the consequences.
Are we still talking about parents/children? Because that also applies to republican politicians/everybody else
She needs to be censored and imprisoned.
They used to burn witches too...... just saying
It's so weird that they don't want abortions to be legal but they basically want spontaneous death to happen after birth.
Yay, baby gambling!
But on the serious note, they want poor to be confused, miserable and desperate. They themselves take all the best healthcare, all shots and boosters, but they want for pandemic to happen because it would occupy ordinary people's minds and also give the government additional abilities to control everyone, while the collapsing market would once again benefit the rich and make poor even poorer. There's no downside for the likes of MTG, Trump and RFK as long as they are in power.

Stupid bitch would be advocating for ebola parties if there was a vaccine for it.
I'm pretty sure they did recently develop a vaccine for Ebola that they are trying to distribute in the affected areas of Africa, but I'm afraid that US governmental funding, the WHO, and American-based NGOs were involved, so who knows if the money exists for the manufacturing and distribution anymore.
