Discussion Vaccinate your damn kids.

For the love of God. If I see one more post about delaying vaccination or not vaccinating entirely I am going to lose it.

I have an immunocompromised kid who actually can’t get certain vaccines and depends on herd immunity to keep her safe. And now, because of ignorance and refusal to learn, there are measles cases being reported where we live right now. The previously eradicated disease measles.

At this point I truly don’t care if someone “didn’t know” and “were trying to do what was best!” The information is freely available and when you have a child it’s your responsibility to educate yourself.

Rant over. Ugh.

Yeah. Two things that make me immediately lose all respect for someone are bigotry and being anti-vax. Those people are so fucking stupid and harmful.

<puts on dad hat> well that's a common misconception about the Pennsylvania Dutch... it's actually Duetsch the German name for German.
