Anti-vaxxers making Washington state great again.

* In 2012, a child of an anti-vaxxer gave me the mumps. Turns out even if you had the mumps, you can get them again. I was deathly ill for three weeks, and my bits swelled to the size of oranges. VA told me to stay the heck away from the hospital and sent someone round my house to check on me. Miserable doesn’t even begin to describe how I felt.

“It’s my choice to leave my child unvaccinated! It doesn’t hurt anyone else!”

Times I really do think the idea of requiring people to be certified before they can have kids has a certain appeal.
