I can’t believe that we are at the point where we need to constantly remind everyone that children aren’t meant to die from vaccine-preventable diseases.

I've been getting vaccinated since the 1960s and never even knew anti-vaxxing was a thing until about a decade ago. Where do these fucking imbeciles come from? I truly don't understand this particular psychosis.
We need a national citizens' assembly. One breakout group should backtrack from where we are to figure out how it happened.
Just as a clue: look at top universities. This was an inside job, unfurled over decades, w/unintentional but apparently acceptable consequences to the elites who fund the GOP.
One of my grandmothers worked with the first March of Dimes vaccination drives - she'd seen children die in her low-income neighborhood & she wanted her child safe from polio. It meant the world to her that that millions of children including hers would be safe. She'd be so angry if she knew.
A whole lot of people don't recognize a threat until they see it in action, which tendancy hugely hinders preventative efforts.
I really wish health history was a standard school subject, so more people would grow up understanding why vaccination, CDC, EPA, OSHA are direly needed
