I came across an article from "I fucking love science" facebook group, about how Americans are now getting measles, and there was a heated debate between anti-vaxxers (people against vaccination) and people who see the importance of vaccination.
It is just very difficult to comprehend how such a movement would have emerged and gained so many followers. Especially when they claim that vaccines are toxins and result in autism.
And no offense, but I've never heard of this movement in the East.
Whilst, there had been much controversies about the linkage between vaccinations and autism (many claimed that the scientists are being bribed), even if they are right with this, I don't see why having autism is an excuse for not having vaccines.
Is having autism that bad? That they'd rather risk their child of dying in exchange of this "prevention" of autism? Is there discrimination towards autism?
What is the matter of being unnatural? (They claim that vaccines are bad because they are unnatural.)
What is with them that they assume every natural thing is good whilst every unnatural thing is bad?
Would they want their kids to not wear any clothes? Natural? How about having your kids eaten by predators? Or leave your kids die in the cold because radiators are so unnatural?
I don't understand them. No, I mean, I'm even more interested to know as to WHY these movements can gain so many followers, that herd immunity becomes a problem. An article said that 8,000 children in Iowa alone will go to school without being vaccinated.
I think it's very scary.
I think they should make it illegal to refuse vaccination. I wonder why this cannot be done.
Why can't we do anything about it?
(If this keeps on spreading in the West and gain enough support, people in the East may start to follow as well. It's only a matter of time, and I don't want this to happen.)
