Long story short, there's a recent outbreak of measles spreading out from Disneyland because people aren't vaccinating their kids.
Almost all of the people who got it weren't vaccinated. Two of them were babies too young, but the rest of them...
They think it causes autism. I think that is garbage bs. And in any case I'd rather be autistic than dead.
Jenny McCarthy, you are killing children.
Yeah, some people are too young. Some are allergic. Some people have some special condition so they can't have vaccines.
But that is why we need the rest of the population to have herd immunity. The increasing percentage of unvaccinated people is eroding that.
(Also, I live somewhat close to Disneyland and I don't want no fucking measles just in case I'm in that ~1% of the population where the vaccine doesn't work.)
Thoughts?
Vaccinate!! I highly agree with vaccination.
Read this, this is perfect.

If you know even basic principles of the immune system, you would know that vaccines actually do what they're meant to do. Some people are stupid enough to think that their anecdotal evidence is enough to disprove vaccinations.
E.g. if you vaccinate for flu and still get the flu, it doesn't mean the vaccine didn't work. Since there are so many flu strains, it's not viable to insert all the strains into your body. So although you might get a vaccine for 1 strain, you might have gotten infected with another strain. Anyway, I kinda veered off a bit there but yeah vaccines are good ok.

I read this too. I've just avoided the flu vaccine because it always made me super sick for a long time, and without getting it I haven't had the flu since.Originally Posted by Lyric
I've never had the flu vaccine and I've never had the flu, not that this is relevant. xD
Like Moon said, sometimes you get vaccinated for one strain but there are many strains of the flu out there.

ur so unreligious omg
Heh they kinda guessed wrong this year for the flu vaccine, happens.
I don't get sick often so the flu doesn't concern me much but I'd like to go to Disneyland with my friends and their baby without it being ground zero of the next plague apocalypse movie or something.

Omigosh this pisses me off SO MUCH. It's incredibly selfish of the parents to not vaccinate their children. It's not just their children that are affected when they choose not to, but MANY MANY others. Complete morons.
Thanks Anne <3
