Measles, that old-timey disease we didn't really think about as kids because of vaccinations. Welp, that's coming back. Thanks to fucking idiots.

It's coming back thanks to those vaccine mandates that were brought in.

You don't put people at ease about a new vaccine by saying "you must have it otherwise you can't participate in society". That has the opposite effect and makes people even more reluctant and sceptical. It also gives anti-vaxxers more ammo for their nonsense that they can spread online.

All that combined has led to a big increase in vaccine hesitancy and scepticism, and the worst thing is that it's now harming kids as a result.

I AGREE! Even though before Covid we also couldn't participate in things like travel or schooling or sometimes even workout with the Right Vaccine!
