She’s figuring out why families 200 years ago had a dozen kids.
Not really. She didn’t learn shit.
She gets to hold her dead child who could have had a full life thanks to modern medicine and pretend like she’s the victim.
I will skip this particular circle jerk where we all say vaccines are amazing together in a big ring. :)
I dont feel any anger of someone decides to not vaccinate. Its their decision.
It wasn’t that 6 year old kids decision.
Yep thats true.
In other words, irresponsible parents who should not raise kids in the first place.
Not just irresponsible, delusional. At what point does delusional thinking causing a child’s death turn into neglect or child abuse?
Poor child.
People like this should be treated the same as parents who drive their kids without car seats and seat belts.
How this isn’t abuse is beyond me. They’ll screen about personal freedoms, but what about that poor child’s personal freedom.
I hate that we let parents treat kids like property.
CHD and Kennedy have relentlessly spread dangerous misinformation about the safe, lifesaving MMR vaccine, including that it causes autism (it does not) and even deaths (it does not).
So much better that she just died rather than got autism and then died.
As if autism is the worst thing you can have, come on… That’s actually offensive af of them to even say. I have autism and I’d rather have it than be dead, any day.
There are definitely days I’d rather be dead, but that’s not the autism’s fault, it’s morons that believe in this shit.
So she’s a child murdering monster. Got it.
“Pro-life” I’m sure.
4/5 kids survived. Those are great numbers if you’re living in the 19th century.
Help! I’m trapped in a shit hole country and surrounded by moronic assholes.
I work with a guy who is an extreme germ, a phobia. He always wears latex gloves even when he eats his food but yet he refused to get the Covid vaccine him and his wife are not even 30 yet and they have nine kids. I believe four of them have some sort immune deficiency problem, as well as one or two with a learning disability yet it’s all part of God‘s plan FYI he is also a big-time Mormon.
Fuck it, i need to know. What does being a homophobe have to do with eating with latex gloves or no covid shots?
Sorry mistyped, i meant germaphobia.
[he’s] an extreme germ, a phobia.
I love the new version where now he’s straight up just a singular bacterium with strong opinions, and that’s freaking you out. Pls don’t change it again
Oops lol!
Fear that their food or covid shots might’ve been handled by someone attracted to their same gender? Hoping it’s just an unfortunate typo and they meant germaphobe.
Crazy that anti-vax has even a fig leaf of personal liberty as a defense. Yes, you do have the right to make your own choices and you can be a negligent parent in 1000 different ways.
But this isn’t even close to a personal freedom issue. You being a dumb piece of shit is a direct threat to the rest of society. YOU don’t get to make the personal choice to kill MY child.
It should be simple for these serious diseases: unless you have a certified medical issue preventing it, you have to get the shot. Fuck any objection (personal, religious, whatever…). If there’s some negative side effect or a bad vaccine batch, you get generously compensated for our collective societal fault in harming you.
Strap them down and jab them, let them bitch and moan about everyone’s children being alive and healthy later.
Either that or, more gently, ban them from public spaces if they haven’t had the vaccine – schools, public administrations, grocery stores, malls, churches…
This is the approach I would suggest. I do not agree with forcing people to take vaccines, but if they want to be part of society then this is a reasonable requirement. It’s simply an extension of the duty of care principle we already have for healthcare environments where vaccination and other measures are required for people to work in.
What a shitty mother. I feel sorry for her other children.
20% death rate seems somewhat normal for unvaccinated
… This isn’t an onion article. That’s horrifying.
The most generous way I can look at this is to say she’s in denial. Five unvaccinated children with one dead. Apparently a 20% fatality rate (in her family) is not enough of a reason to get the vaccine.
The most generous way I can look at this is she’s a danger to her children, and they should be removed from her. Rejecting vaccines should not be a choice, just like choosing to starving your children should not be a choice.
If she got bit by a rabid dog, she’d get the vaccine in a heartbeat. Anti-vaxxers are only anti-vaxxers out of pure spite for science and the government. That’s literally it. Willfull ignorance and contradicting personalities in defiance of the status quo. If the disease has a low risk of them or their loved ones dying, they’ll take the risk of not taking the vaccine, because they suck at math and it can’t possibly happen to them and their family.
If the risk of death is 100% (like in rabies), they’ll take the vaccine, because they know deep down they are fking wrong about vaccines and they don’t want the 100% chance of death.
Btw, If you ever debate with an anti-vaxxer irl, asking them if they’d take the rabies vaccine once bit by a rabid animal does fuck up their stupid logic quite effectively.
Math is not their strong suit.
Neither is science. These are the kids who set in the back of the class and got D’s and got passed by the teacher because they didn’t want to deal with them for another year.
