A antivax mom gave kids lolipops infected with chicken pocks for halloween
How is that legal
👋
I don't know
I don't think it is legal
She probably got locked up for it
If she didn't then it is legal to knowingly harm children
Ok now
Measles is a preventable disease by vaccination
But antivax kids die from it
Greetings lads.
Bc of antivax theres a deadly measles outbreak in samoa
Yo
It's said to lessen the risk of catching the disease yeah
No they dont
Ok then give me image perms so i can send u the screenshot
I feel like some people who are anti-vax do put their children in danger which is a problem

Of note, it is true that you won't always die when you aren't vaccinated but do recall how many people per year were dying from smallpox alone.
It is very true
I acknowledge that
In 1760 - 1796 the rate was hundreds of thousands dying per year.
Fatality rate was about 30% for the more deadly strains
But if you are anti-vax and live a life within people who are vaccinated you'll be fine for the most part
Government officials say anti-vaccination advocates such as Tamasese have complicated their sweeping efforts to turn the tide on the highly contagious disease that has sickened more than 4,300 people on the independent Pacific islands.
The government has declared a state of emergency and ordered mandatory vaccinations. It shut schools indefinitely. This week, it launched a door-to-door mass vaccination campaign, asking families to pin a piece of red cloth on their homes if they haven't been vaccinated.
On Thursday and Friday, the government closed all of its offices except public utilities, so that civil servants could focus on the campaign. Officials say more than 20,000 people have received vaccines.
"Let us work together to ... convince those that do not believe that vaccinations are the only answer to the epidemic. Let us not be distracted by the promise of alternative cures," Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi said earlier this week.

You will.
With herd immunity working
Problem is if it isn't
I just really dislike measles parties
If you live in an area with few enough vaccinated people, herd immunity cannot sufficiently work.
There
That's why you should move to areas where there are more vaccinated people if you want to be anti-vax publicly in my opinion
It is a lot safer for them
Keep in mind, herd immunity is for protecting those with allergic reactions or who cannot take vaccines.
They are the people who are at the most risk.
Samoa got pomped with measles cus vaccines prevent them and antivax dont do vax
Woops
