re: John Oliver goes after anti-vaxxers in his most recent episode (video)

You can already see the measles and mumps are making a comeback from just the small percentage of anti-vaxers. Imagine what they would be if 300 million stopped vaccinating.

A child who contracts something like The measles has a high likelihood of severe brain damage, and yes possibly death. I know of this firsthand, as my mentally challenged uncle was born with a fully functional brain, but contracted the measles as an infant.

The speculated pros do not outweigh the very real cons
