Do you think we would have a measles outbreak if we had higher vaccination rates?
No. Measles had been all but eliminated in this country 15-20 years ago. Then the anti-vaxxer movement started, entirely based on pseudo-science and paranoia.

The narrative now is that hipster, granola parents refusing to have kids vaccinated has lowered the herd immunity. So you think that’s right?
It is right. There has been some impact from immigration as well, mainly from African nations with low immunization rates. Mexico and most Central American countries have higher vaccination rates than the US.

It’s not just “hipster and granola” parents if you are trying to say it’s just liberals. I know a Super conservative chick who is also the most ridiculous anti vaxxer out there. One picture she has her gun in her work out pants saying #comeandgetit and the next one she is talking about some ridiculous stats that are obviously slanted toward her way of thought. I also know some very liberal folks who tell the anti vaxxers to gtfo and get your kids their shots. What I am saying is the crazy is everywhere and this one thing seems to have infected both sides with the dumb.
