Can we please start arming swat teams with vaccine dart guns and have them storm the homes of anyone who shares an anti-vaxxer meme on facebook?
....Someone needs to write that book.MarsAtlas said:Sorry PsychicTaco, people already believe this. It should've been something like "Vaccines turn people into gingers" or "vaccines cause heterosexuality". If it were the latter, you sure bet all those children in Texas would have more holes in them than a sponge.

Two words - Measles Epidemics.The Bucket said:I dont know where this sudden surge of snark at anti-vaxxers that swept the internet over the last few weeks came from.
Epidemic is pushing it. Sure, what these people are doing is awful, but they don't have the power to really stuff things up. In large part, people seem to be against dangerous anti-science in general, not this particular example.Mutant1988 said:Two words - Measles Epidemics.The Bucket said:I dont know where this sudden surge of snark at anti-vaxxers that swept the internet over the last few weeks came from.
These morons are hurting and potentially murdering their own children.
It's an epidemic through the communities that subscribe to anti-vaccine ideas. People that are vaccinated are of course not effected by it, but it's still causing harm to their own people. Children, in particular, should not suffer because of their parents stupidity.thaluikhain said:Epidemic is pushing it.

Sure, but they are still relatively few in number, there's plenty of herd immunity.Mutant1988 said:It's an epidemic through the communities that subscribe to anti-vaccine ideas.

If it causes a resurgence in eradicated diseases then it's a severe issue. Not all diseases are as kind as measles.
If you would rather risk contracting a potentially deadly disease you are welcome to.Chucky99999 said:http://healthimpactnews.com/2015/obama-grants-immunity-to-cdc-whistleblower-on-measles-vaccine-link-to-autism/
Gee what timing, not exactly the same thing but keep saying vaccinations are perfectly safe when they obviously are not. Safer then the alternatives is not the same thing as safe, vaccinations are gamble pure and simple.
With a stuff like "'By the way, my book was totally right after all. My only flaw was linking autism with the vaccines while I should have claimed it was cancer! I can totally cash on this and make mad money. I may be a doctor but doctors still have to eat too' said Wakefield."NeutralDrow said:That only works if it's actually funny.Haerthan said:Dude Taco is a joke reporter. He makes shit up. Than he posts it under the guise of reporting. Check his thread history. You will see what I mean. Seriously, once you see his name as the OP you know you are in for a good laugh.keniakittykat said:I flagged this on the ground of dangerous stupidity. If you rally for not vaccinating then, indirectly, you are killing people. I don't care if I get a strike for doing so, but spreading unfounded bullshit like this is dangerous.
Children that are not vaccinated are dying for completely preventable diseases. Adults are dying from these diseases because they never got the chance to make antibodies when they were vaccinated as kids. Mumps, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Pneumonia, Meningitis, Whooping cough, Rubella, Smallpox, Cervical cancer, these are serious diseases and should be prevented.
Please stop spreading this uninformed nonsense.
This is just played too straight, and I've read too many similar things elsewhere that were completely sincere and twice as stupid, so it runs smack into Poe's Law.
