Why would you even join the Anti-Vac Campaign
How is this suddenly a trend? After decades of vaccinations we now see a new trend of "anti-vaccine" parents.
What the heck? How can these parents deny their children this kind of life protection? How can these parents be so selfish and jeopardize the health of others.
Here we had wiped out TB and Whooping Cough and now they are a problem again. This is criminal in my mind.

Some people will believe anything. The kids are not allowed in city or parochial schools without vaccinations, so they are "home schooled", the legality of which may vary depending on the jurisdiction.
Anybody doubt that these idiot parents will be voting for Trump?

It's here too. Back in 1998 Dr Andrew Wakefield published research to suggest a link between Measles, Mumps and Rubella vaccine (MMR) and autism. The fear run through the country like wildfire.
His research has since been found to be fraudulent

In a world where people still believe the US gummint put bombs in the WTC and the Pentagon, and that Hilary was directly responsible for the Libyan Embassy deaths, you wonder about anti-vaxxers?
My granddaughter is still convince that here Autistic son got that way because of Vaccines. I guess it is preferable to believing that it was a result of something she might have done. People seem need to have a cause and the cause must be outside their own sphere of influence, or they end up blaming themselves.

The situation is made even worse by a couple of third rate "celebrities" that are constantly appearing on the daytime talk shows to spout their conspiracies.
Any attempt to confront them with actual facts is taken as further "proof" of the big gummint conspiracy.

I wonder about how the lies concerning Benghazi emanating from Obama and Hillary figure into this.

I have a nephew who is not only Autistic but deaf mute. I haven't seen that boy in many years. My other brother blames drug use by the kids parents for that.
Growing up seeing on TV children my age in iron lungs scared me and to this day I thank G-d for Jonas Salk and the Polio vaccine. It grieves me when I hear the anti-vaccine folk drivel.

What happened to Kamala Harris' campaign?
She had the black vote all locked up.

I can remember kids wearing metal and leather leg braces. The polio vaccine has put an end to that.
This is the sort of 'Freedom' that in a modern society is questionable.
I wonder if Non vaccinated people could cultivate different strains making general vaccines invalid, just a thought.

Wandrin,
I want to address your post first, you are Bang on. How have humans become such followers of ill informed celeb's???
Here where I live not only do people follow faithfully these anit vac type of celebs, but also the anit oil sand type celebs. Not that the two topics are similar, but the celeb hype is pathetic. If a celeb jumped off a cliff I suspect many followers would do the same, I am embarrassed when I hear people quoting celeb "experts".
I fully support vaccines, and firmly believe the anti vaccine is far more damaging and long lasting than the actual vaccine.

we are all right in my opinion, Vaccines prevent far worse conditions, than causing conditions.
I too remember the polio leg braces.
I remember whooping cough too.
I remember actually having mumps

I was not aware that current vaccines prevented mumps. When I was a kid, measles, mumps and chicken pox were more or less regarded as "rites of passage" and rarely harmful.

To make matters worse, we have a presidential candidate who spouts the antivax paranoia about vaccines causing autism.

Mark we have an MMR vaccine now, Mumps Measles and Rubella. I don't think we had this vaccine as kids (or when I was a kid some 40+ years ago). I recall standing looking sadly out our living room window watching my friends play outside on a nice hot sunny day and I was stuck inside with swollen painful pouches under my jaw. Not Fun.

Why would a doctor (if he really is a doctor) need to hang a stethoscope around his neck in order to make a video?
