Well, as expected, the first un-vaccinated child has died of measles in West Texas today.

Where most of the non-compliance for measles vaccination is happening in the USA is among the Mennonite community. But thanks to the anti-vax MAGA movement, measles are making an explosive comeback and becoming more widespread across America.

I am very sad for the kid and its siblings. Not for the parents

So sad but completely foreseeable...

People forget.
What next? Polio?

@Pretzel
People either forget, they never learned from past history, or they're following the advice of some extreme right-wing fascist anti-vax cult who probably got that way from a childhood aversion to needles.

I don't think this thread has anything to do with the "cost to publish" one's opinion nor has the cost to publish been at issue here until you brought it up.

Despite me reading your excellent response about 3 times now, I'm still not exactly sure what your point is.

You're going to hang Mennonite practices on MAGA?

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP Not what she wrote.

@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP i live in an area with lots of them, they have actually let people die, because it goes against thier religion or something, MAGA has nothing to do with them, it is out of thier control

The only person who sent a 'laughing' emoji in response to the very first un-vaccinated American child to die from measles, was @jshm2.

That American right-wing, uneducated mentality who laughs at the death of an un-vaccinated child is why Donald J. Trump is President of the United States of America again.
