re: Parents of girl who died of measles in TX say it was God's will, and to avoid vaccination

Just some simple vitamin A man

"why didn't the doctors offer a simple recommendation of Vitamin A to prevent the disease from becoming a problem?!"

So you trying to imply the Measles aren't sometimes deadly?

quote:

---

Measles being reintroduced to the US followed other allowed waves of illegals by a Dem President as well as a lot of 3rd world refugees who in some cases were allowed to get vaccinations after arrival due to large numbers shipped in by Obama along with some using religious exemptions which shouldn’t be allowed for non-citizens coming in under a refugee program. They can stay in their piece of shite countries they helped create. Biden’s illegal problem was much worse

Holy gaslighting.

Measles vaccine is included in the first batch of vaccines GLOBALLY. So unless you think all these illegals were born in barns on bails of hay, you're wrong. Latin America has high vaccination rates, in general.

And if your argument is that these "dirty" illegals are risks because they aren't vaccinated, what the frick is your defense for Americans not getting vaccinated?

"They recently appeared in an interview with antivaccine nonprofit Children’s Health Defense to talk about their daughter’s death."

Well at a basic level, if God exists and is all powerful, then either this is in his will or he just doesn't care about anything that happens to us. Pick your faith poison in all of that.

God also gave man free will. God created the universe, he created us and everything around us. He gave us a path to salvation if we choose to take it. He gave us intelligence and the resources on earth to unlock secrets of the Universe, modern medicine being one of those.

Nowhere in scripture that I can recall does it say God micro manages everything on earth. He did not cause that girls death nor did He intervene to stop it. Her parents made a choice not to utilize modern medicine and her death was a consequence of that choice.

Pain and death are the punishment for sin going all the way back to the beginning when man disobeyed God. I would argue the decision by the parents to not utilize life saving medicine on their daughter was sinful in nature since it ultimately and unnecessarily caused her death.

including cod liver oil and vitamin A, which doctors say have no effect on measles.

Which doctors said this? According to ChatGPT:

quote:

---

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends vitamin A supplementation for children diagnosed with measles, particularly in areas where vitamin A deficiency is common. The vitamin helps to strengthen the immune system, supports the repair of damaged tissues, and can reduce the risk of complications such as pneumonia and diarrhea, which are common in measles infections.

For added details on this case - below is an assessment by a doctor who reviewed the hospital records.

Also the stats I’m seeing basically say all the measles cases are from unvaccinated and “unknown”. That should be 2 separate categories otherwise people could say they were just covering for vaccine failures by classifying as unknown.

Considering they don’t use modern technology it’s highly unlikely one would post here

That’s another factor in all of this. These folks basically want to live a much simpler life. Does that mean they could be more susceptible to a disease like measles? Does that mean they are much less susceptible to other things that currently plague our society? Probably so. The old I get, the more I start to realize that people like these folks and the Amish are on to something.
