I guess technically there’s a political issue though it’s health related |
| Well my kids are vaccinated so..... |
|
This is a result of the hectic, poorly planned, totally rushed withdrawal.
This and SO MUCH ELSE could have been avoided. What a $hitshow. |
No this is the effect of Trump loving anti vax idiots. Cult members who clearly don't care about anyone but themselves. This is only going to get worse. |
FFS not it is not, it’s coming from the Afghan refugees. Read some real news for once. DP. |
This. Seems like a pretty good argument for vaccination when possible, no? |
Sounds like you'd rather the refugees were not rescued but were still back in Afghanistan. Instead they're here, getting proper medical treatment. And since VA isn't an antivaxxing hot spot, they're in the right place. |
| The 'antivaxxers' are against COVID vaccine, not measles. |
The true anti-vaxxers are against most vaccines including those for diseases like measles or the flu. Much of the movement against the COVID vaccine is not the same people or groups and instead reflects unique factors associated with the pandemic and the development of these vaccines. I know a lot of people who are not "anti-vaxxers" but are not yet ready to take the COVID vaccines, and think "anti-vaxxers" are in many cases nuts. |
What? I am not opposed to Afghans coming to the US. But, this evacuation was so poorly planned that they were not able to vet those who boarded the planes and did not have an efficient (or any) process for getting SIV holders and those who helped the US on the planes first. Blinken testified that pretty much anyone who showed up was allowed on. It was a mess. And, these are the ramifications of a process that wasn't planned and executed properly. |
The anti Vax movement started with misinformation about the MMR vaccine. My Dad's a pediatrician and the anti Vax stuff isn't new. This doesn't pose a threat to the vaccinated population and the kids can get caught up in their vaccines too. This stuff takes time to administer and then to kick in. |
Neither of my nieces (two separate sets of parents) are vaccinated against ANYTHING. One set of parents is religious conservatives, the other set is liberal. My kid is fully vaccinated for everything he’s eligible for at his age. I still can’t believe that we have gotten to this point as a society. |
| It hasn't spread to any non afghans |
You’re either a troll, or literally the dumbest human being on the internet. Pick one. |
DCUM accusing the measles of being a racist disease in 5…..4… 3….2.. |
