Nah, to me, anti-vaxxers are against virtually all vaccinations.
Not getting the Covid vax, I can undestand.
I took them, and you likely know why.

Research the hepatitis vax. It’s giving kids autism.

Good lord just get your kids vaccinated. This isn't a rushed covid vaccine.
There also has been 80 cases at age range of 5 and above including at least 18 cases in the 18 and above age range (plus another 5 whose ages are unknown as of now). It also has moved out of Gaines with cases in 8 nearby counties (Gaines still has the far majority of cases).
When cases were just in Gaines the majority of cases were also in the 5 and up age range including a similar % of cases in 18 and up range.
This anti-vax existed in this community before covid vaccine ever existed. If it started more recently with covid vaccine negativity you would not be seeing higher numbers with ages 5 and above. Something or someone got introduced to community that passed it to a child, a teenager, an adult, or all of the above and then started spreading it.
Also, 5 cases were vaccinated.

At this time, 124 cases have been identified since late January. Eighteen of the patients have been hospitalized. Five of the cases are vaccinated. The rest are unvaccinated, or their vaccination status is unknown.

i'm seeing many of the dumbest people i know homeschooling their kids and bragging about not getting them their *real* vaccines on facebook.
I was properly vaccinated, as a child. I was homeschooled from the 5th grade & up. I went to college and managed to be a "normal" person, with a career. I refused the COVID-19 vaccine. I am alive to talk about it. Not all homeschooled kids are as weird and/or dumb as you plainly state. People really do misunderstand parents who homeschool. Most of your Olympic gymnasts were homeschooled. These aren't dumb athletes.

As a father of two healthy children I’d recommend finding and listening to a pediatrician you trust instead of idiots on an anonymous football board.
Just my opinion though.

More kids die from the shots than the disease.

Vaccinated kids aren’t as healthy as the unvaccinated.

Mennonites interact daily with non-Mennonites. It could have come from contact with anyone who was contagious.

The illegals may have been the vectors?
The kid was not a Mennonite and there is zero mention the kid had ever even interacted with Mennonites. The article discusses Mennonite communities, but never even suggests the kid had ever been associated with them.

Never the less, Mennonites are dangerous and should be avoided

That part is the problem.
I know quite a few folks who homeschool their children the correct way. They themselves are successful, and even pretty well educated. Even a couple of the wives are certified secondary education teachers and know where to seek out resources for proper homeschooling of their children.
And then I know…others. God help those kids being homeschooled and “educated” by those others.

Yeah, frick that.
The "scientific consensus" is very often filtered and skewed.

I was one of "those others". We were busy homeschool parents, might have put 2 hours a day into it. Despite skipping science throughout, my daughter got a 30 ACT and son a 28.
Daughter got 2 undergrad degrees at LSU and is now a PhD, published, keynote speaker, etc.
Those more educated types have done no better, no worse in general.
Maybe my point is
1. You don't need qualifications to homeschool well.
2. It doesn't take much at all to outpace kids wasting their childhood in the classroom.
