Speaking of misinformation, the smallpox vaccine is no longer given as the disease has been eradicated.

Bs bs bs
Palm Beach Jacksonville fort meets it’s all over you are just stupid,

Destantis will roll back vaccines and make them banned
I hope every maga child gets what is coming! I hope every maga family suffers horribly

I'm in FL and never saw this. Schools are strict about vaccines...

I would just post pro-vax stuff until I got booted.

I'm not sure how lifesaving vaccines became the boogeyman to these folks. However, I do think that when people have too much time on their hands that they can go down dark conspiracy rabbit holes. This happened to a relative of mine. They don't go out much and don't work, so they have all day to stress out about conspiracies.

PS: My theory is that some of these people suffer from untreated anxiety and depression, and this is how it's coming out into the world.

Of course they do.

This is my experience as well.
Until someone dies or has a severe impact from a preventable disease, they are fine spreading this.

No they are too far gone. They will go to the funeral and then show up on Fox News talking about how the influx of immigrants is responsible for their child dying.

+1

Or it was the physician or hospital’s fault for not saving their child.

If you have tried to set someone you love straight with facts and they rebuff you, it's time to let it go. If a child is involved, and so at risk, stay involved and keep trying to share good information.

Op, just unfollow the group. Why would you expend and mental energy on this? Life’s too short. If they want to risk their kids lives by avoiding vaccines, let them.

Wait. They’re anti vax for babies and kids? Or just covid boosters and flu shots? Either way, I agree it’s crazy. My niece has a baby and I’m scared to ask about vaccinations. She lives in deep MAGA world.

Hoping that someone can relate. I'm a member of the palm beach county moms facebook group and the sentiment on there is CRAZY TOWN. So much disinformation, so much ignorance. As a former journalist it makes me so nuts that these people are unable to ascertain where to get their information and how to extrapolate data. I love this page but have to unfollow it bc the vibe is so ridiculous.
Anyone else struggling with this?
