[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just limit close contact with people who are not vaccinated.  Not for all kids, just for babies and those who are immunocompromised, and of course if there is an outbreak in the area.  Or if we are going to be visiting great-grandparents so I really don't want my kids to be sick.

It's not really feasible to avoid in public spaces, but I wouldn't go to someone's house or have them at mine.  I'm not a germaphobe, my kid rides the subway and the bus daily, but snotty toddlers tend to get it all over each other and that's where I draw the line.  It can be socially awkward to turn down a playdate, but when people choose not to vaccinate, we have to fall back on the older methods of limiting contact to prevent contagion.  People who don't vaccinate usually understand this. [/quote]. You have no way of knowing who is or not. [/quote]

Au contraire.  Some of the anti-vaxers are rabidly open about it.  These are not the kind of people with whom I would be friends, so a playdate is never going to happen anyway.  [/quote]
