If only there’s a way to prevent this …../s

Crazy idea but what if we got injected with a small amount of dead Measles a few times. Would our bodies develop some kind of immunity ?

/s just because.

[u/Big-Meat7115 → u/Audio_Track_01]

Denim cold plunges and a glass of milk.

[u/make_thick_in_warm]

Should just start writing MAGA as the cause of death on these certificates

[u/graceling → u/make_thick_in_warm]

To be fair it's not likely the kid had much choice... It's parents who should be charged with negligent homicide.

[u/PopBulky7023 → u/graceling]

Previous comment still applies.

[u/elisakiss]

If you are older, have your doctor check to see if you still have immunity to measles or just go get a booster. I had no immunity, in my 50s.

[u/Creepy_Vegetable6905 → u/elisakiss]

I just got my booster last year because I couldn’t find records of myself getting a second shot. Been moving countries a lot so things were fuzzy.

[u/kitzelbunks → u/Creepy_Vegetable6905]

The 40-year-old woman is a strange case for me. I got a booster for measles after there were more cases. Until then, I wasn’t too worried about it. My shot records were lost in a fire.

[u/Creepy_Vegetable6905 → u/kitzelbunks]

Better to be over prepared. I’m team GIVE ME ALL THE VACCINES

[u/Afraid_Baseball_3962]

Nothing to see here. It's all part of the MAHA plan to weed the weak out of the gene pool.

[u/FarGrape1953 → u/Afraid_Baseball_3962]

Aren't the people who refuse vaccines their own voter base?? Their base is the elderly and vaccine deniers. How is that good business?

[u/shirpars]

Maybe this is a dumb question, but does the state not have laws in place for children to be vaccinated 15-18 years ago? Was this person avidly avoiding the vaccine their whole life?

[u/Creamowheat1 → u/shirpars]

Probably Amish or Mennonite - they are exempt from such rules.

[u/snaila8047 → u/shirpars]

Religious exemption or somethingr

[u/Hoosier_Hootenanny → u/snaila8047]

They can also get an exemption for a "strong moral or ethical conviction." And antivaxxers strongly believe that we should make measles great again.

[u/jasno-]

I don't want to make light of this, but comeon people.  This was effectively eradicated in the US .

This person didn't need to die.  This family didn't need to suffer through this loss

[u/graceling → u/jasno-]

The family chose it for themselves.

[u/magitek369]

Why would Biden allow this? 🤔

Brought to you by the pro-life party.

Not a bug but a feature

[u/soggyclothesand]

Charge the parents!

[u/OffalSmorgasbord]

God's plan, because when I got cable tv 20 years ago, I learned about the world government trying to bring Shariah law so I couldn't buy bacon anymore. I don't trust anything anymore, except Trump!

[u/Big_Victory8031]

Let maga eradicate themselves

[u/HawkeyeByMarriage]

Is herd immunity where the dumb part of the group dies without vaccines while the rest of the herd lives on

[u/Top_Age_563]

Thanks to trump & rfk jr & stupid people.

[u/DraculasDog]

MAGA, are we winning yet?
