Anti-Vaxxers should be forced to live on an island, away from the rest of us. Seriously. They are dangerous.

Well you're just a stupid adult in that case. These idiots on the other hand are allowing their kids and their kids friends fricking polio because they're so scared of autism. Jesus Christ, just ask some elderly person that got stricken with that one if they'd rather have been autistic.

The only thing I lend any credence to with some anti-vaxxers is the discussion of whether the vaccine schedule should be altered for infants. And even at that, the science is iffy. Outside of that, they should be made to home school or send their kids to private school if they refuse to vaccinate their kids (medical exemptions aside).

But working in a school where we just sent out our second health department notice for whooping cough when I have immunocompromised kids in my building, they can frick right off.

for saying a couple of comedians make the best case for vaccines. That is just as stupid as listening to Jenny McCarthy on whether or not to vaccinate your kids.

Comedians are on average certainly smarter than fricking porn stars. All you have to do is fricking spread em for that job. At least with comedy you have to think critically to be good at it.

Kids of anti-vaxxers are fighting back:

Yes. Yes they are. I deal with them all of the time in the school system. They flat out refuse to vaccinate their kids because they believe that BS Wakefield study (that has been debunked a million times over) that vaccines causes Autism.

They are idiots and are going to get people killed through their stupidity.

I read an article a few weeks ago about a woman in Portland who is an affluent area with lots of anti-vaxxers. She has two kids. One is 8 years old and fully vaccinated. The other is a baby and not yet fully vaccinated because she isn’t old enough yet. So until her baby is fully vaccinated (or close enough to that level), she isn’t allowing her 8 year old to bring over friends who aren’t fully vaccinated. If I recall correctly, more than half of the kids aren’t vaccinated.

That she has to think of this type of stuff in the 21st century is absurd.

WTF does how smart a comedian compared to whatever McCarthy is have to do with anything?? Neither should be who you should go to on whether or not to vaccinate a child.

Some people have a need to feel smarter than others, so to compensate, they find bullshite conspiracies online and follow them to prove they are actually smarter than doctors.

In reality, they are as dumb as a box of rocks.

I have never met an anti-vaxxer that was not otherwise a complete idiot regarding non-vax things too.

Good work by that kid. He should follow through on his vaccine cycle and in 2-3 years (or perhaps less time), he will be covered as well anyone with normal parents.

So has there been a parent go public yet with a kid that wasn't vaccinated but does have autism? Wouldn't that debunk the whole thing?

My opinion is that their kids are walking, biological weapons that may blow up at any given moment.

I believe that if their child gives my child measles or some other disease that my child has not become fully vaccinated against yet because they've only done one round of vaccinations, that the parents should be subject to law suits and required to pay my medical bills, including those medical bills that result from ongoing treatment due to chronic effects caused by the disease their child gave mine.
