Measles is the most contagious virus we know of, can cause devastating complications, and increases vulnerability to *all* infections. It’s horrible and deadly, and we have the tools we’d need to *eradicate* it. We can’t afford to let this get out of control again.

Reiterating that measles infections target and deplete your memory immune cells, leaving you more vulnerable to *any* infections for *years*, including things you might’ve previously been vaccinated against. Measles vaccination is multi-hazard mitigation!!

This terrifies me.
But the effects of fraudulent science are still being felt 30 years later, with people using bad research to excuse anti-vaccine sentiment.
The damage that Wakefield has done just keeps adding up though.

Right? 🤔
I wouldn't have worried about it if people weren't being reckless about not getting their kids vaccinated.
I want to take them to the nearest cemetery & drag them by the hair to look at the graves of every child who died of a vaccine preventable disease. We are losing our memory of the horror.
Let them live in their anti-woke, pro-infection spaces by themselves as long as they agree to never come near the rest of us again. They can die out alone.
Grr.
