Measles Outbreak in a Texas Low Vax County

look who is running the country..bleach and rectal glow tubes for everyone

 

Same with me as well as the chicken pox. Back in the '50 and '60 all three were considered routine childhood diseases.

 

Think hard about what you are trying to accomplish here.

 

He’s a grownup who doesn’t need a minder.

 

Granted, from a virus believer, but there are benefits to getting rash and fever, er, measles during childhood …

DeSantis enters the fray and brings flu vaccine along with him


Shots fired: Ron DeSantis, Joseph Ladapo cast doubts on flu, measles vaccines

 

They’re doing God’s work. They have to. Nobody’s listening to God when he’s been trying to get the point across, all along, that his creatures are not broken and in need of modern pharmaceutical interventions.

 

The religious exemption was an option in the 80s back then it was the left wing idiots who were antivax. Now you need a scorecard to tell whose idiots are worse.

 

Apparently, no longer an option …

 

LOL, I’m posting this graph, on social media, and several have said they know someone who knows someone who’s died of measles …

 

What is the political upside of bashing vaccines? Even Trump seems to understand this.

 

Poor vaccines the way people bash them.

 

Things that are deadlier than rash and fever

 

This article focuses on political trust as a key for support of vaccines. While Trump may support vaccines, he and other Republican leaders constantly bash government per se, leading conservatives to not trust government on vaccine safety. The article describes it as a heuristic that enables people to substitute political trust instead of analyzing a govt policy on merits.

So you just provided the proof for backing the efficacy of measles vaccines. Congrats

 

Repeat after me: “safe and effective.”

 

Vaccines so effective that they work retroactively

 

from a broad sense I don’t think it’s helpful at a national or statewide level, politically. Perhaps it can fly in places that are heavily right wing or left wing.

It seems like DeSantis damaged his brand by staking out extreme positions.

 

LOL!

You must not have been in Florida the last time we elected DeSantis…

 

I think it is a rationale why people believe in the safety or efficacy of vaccines based on who they most align with politically. We see it on this board. Republicans, through Limbaugh, recognized the way to power was to be oppositional to everything Democrats proposed no matter how moderate, and it was a successful strategy. The downside are consequences like vaccine safety denial.
