I didn't realize this. I remember the first time my oldest got Scarlet Fever. Instantly my mind went to LIttle House on the Prairie and omg what is this gonna do to my kid?? Turns out that it's just a form of strep throat. He got it 3 times as a kid. And the only thing that happened to him was that his palms would peel 2 weeks after the onset of the scarlet fever. Oh and his genitals got beet red. I associated "scarlet fever" with some deadly disease and I thought his family plans were ruined for life.
Measles is so dangerous that parents in the UK used to send their kids to "measles parties" to get it over with. Curiously, the parents themselves rarely caught it - probably because they partied when young.
But I should mention that it can cause birth defects and blindness - allegedly.
The headline is right on the money, no pun intended. This is absolutely about declining vaccination rates, but don't think the soul-less people at the pharmaceutical companies or the scare-mongers of the CDC care about anyone's health. This is to stop a big cash cow from going away.
Measles are nothing.

Measles didn't become a "deadly disease" until they came up with the vaccine. Then "deadly" became part of the sales pitch.

I came from a family of 6 kids. We all shared measles, chicken pox, or anything that came around. We all survived !
A great pitch for sealing up that border!

Fuck Them Scumbags Vaccines
They need to get people taking vax's again
The plural of tax is taxes so I suspect that the plural of vax must be vaxes?
It's not Greek to you?
Maybe. I don't english good.
