On: Measles Cases Triple in U.S., Vaccine Refusal Here and Elsewhere to Blame

"I think it's unacceptable to compromise herd immunity because of selfish non-scientific beliefs that verge on ideology at this point."

I don't understand this point of view. We literally live in a country where our government uses vaccinations as part of secret assassination campaigns. Reluctance to get vaccinated doesn't necessarily mean ignorance about science.

If science allows us to determine patient-0, I think it's reasonable that people be allowed to sue the culprit parents for tort, if not criminality, at this point.

[Alex3917 → mc32]

Except for that patient-0 could easily have been vaccinated.

So in those cases there would not be grounds for a lawsuit. Why is this a problem?

WTF? What campaigns are these? They have programs where they assassinate people with vaccines?

Nobody (that I'm aware of) who refuses to vaccinate their childern, does so for this reason.
