re: #6 RogueOne

Those are great pieces but you seem to be putting the blame on U.S. “antivaxxers” while both outbreaks in the measles story are blamed on foreigners. The AZ outbreak was due to a Swiss woman traveling through Mexico and the Minnesota measles story says out of the 23 reported cases 21 came from an infection in Kenya.

The blame DOES lie with U.S. anti-vaxers because if they’d immunized their kids, and if they didn’t buy into the bullshit surrounding the issue, the chances of there being an outbreak at all would have been minor at best.

Not vaccinating yourself and/or your kids = lowering herd immunity = there being outbreaks of measles at all. We haven’t had an outbreak in ten years before the most recent ones because parents got their kids their vaccines. We’d pretty much eradicated many diseases from the map in this country until the anti-vax idiocy took off.
