I am still wrapping my head around the fact that the Navajo Code Talkers, who, y'know, SUCCESSFULLY KEPT WAR SECRETS Secret apparently needed to be memory-holed to make room for the true glory of sharing war plans with a journalist you *invited* into the group chat

Both should have to undergo the same drug tests that people do to get welfare. Frequently.

*Barry's real name is Tristan and Magda's is Taylor but they wanted more old fashioned names to sound cool. I'm still workshopping the gay couple's names. There is a lot of Gilmore like dialogue in this show.

sabotage tactics, like making reels about how much they love gas station egg rolls and Barry eats 10 and then has food poisoning for the next 3 days.

Well I hope we both learned some stuff from this discussion, I have to sleep.

There's no federal law, and state laws differ. For example, in my state it's school and preschool age children, but exceptions aren't that hard to get. Laws for healthcare workers are different, but those are adults.

See, as a parent I looked at the smallest smallest odds of my kid having an adverse side effect vs actual effects if my kid got that disease and made the choice.

prevent having abnormal pap smears. They'd get a vaccine to avoid getting pap smears! They'd get a vaccine to avoid getting an incredibly painful biopsy of their cervix! HPV is a lot more than "just" cervical cancer.

Shingles is an old person's disease and if the chicken pox vax had been around when I was a kid, I'd have gotten it to prevent shingles, because it's so painful. I suspect most old people would gladly get a vaccine to prevent going through cancer treatment. Hell, most women would get a vaccine to

receiving the vaccines vs getting the vaccine at the standard one year mark and there's no measles outbreak in my area that I am worried about, that's fine. But your skepticism is a lot more vague than that so far.

Again, I don't care if people delay the MMR vaccine in their children. I don't think that's the best outcome for public health in general, but if parents read the CDC webpage on the safety of the measles and go hey, there is a slightly higher chance for febrile seizures in infants under a year

Also people do know the warning if they read the CDC pamphlet that is given with every vaccine. It's not hidden, it's in that literature.

They should also know how safe modern vaccines are, how effective they are at preventing illness and death, and the actual numbers of adverse life changing side effects (incredibly incredibly low).

What do birth rates have to do with delaying the MMR vaccine?

What about the studies done in other countries that have shown no link between vaccines and autism?
Rise in autism - more diagnosis and a wider range of autistic characteristics (including merging Asperger's with autism, new diagnostic criteria for autism in girls, more adults getting diagnosed)

Cervical cancer is most frequently diagnosed in women between the ages of 35 and 44, with the average age being 50. That's old people??

And when RFK spouts off nonsense as he does in this very video about how "unsafe" the MMR vaccine can be, it's very dangerous because it feeds into that movement and then people don't vaccinate their kids and then children die of the measles.
comment in response to

RFK is continually spouting misinformation and casting doubt on vaccines. That makes people skeptical when they shouldn't be skeptical of the safety of vaccines! My kids were born in the anti-vax Jenny McCarthy era, the anti-vax movement is zero vaccines, that's the point.

Dude, you are the guy thought HPV was an old person's disease. So, what are you arguing? You've had a lot of a arguments, I've challenged many of them. I've even agreed with you! (Again, his security detail isn't looking at vaccination papers or whatever was said, in TOTAL agreement with you there)
comment in response to

people are still getting vaccinated. It's not perfect for babies, but it's far far better than zero vaccines. That is anti-vax and that is the anti-vax movement.

This article is riddle with conspiracy theories and zero science. You gave me one study that proved nothing. But honestly, if people want to delay the MMR vaccine, that's their choice. There's a huge difference between anti-vax (no vaccine) and delayed vaccines. At least with delayed vaccines,

Or should we argue about kitchen fires? You are the one who can't seem to figure out what is the argument here.
comment in response to

Figure out what you want to argue. Do you want to argue that RFK Jr is not anti-vax it's only the media portrayal, because that is where you started. Do you want to cite studies that link vaccines to autism? You gave me a very weak study. Do you want to argue that the MMR vaccine should be delayed?

that Hooker and Wakefield were recording him.

That study only showed a slightly higher proportion of children with autism were vaccinated before 36 months and the study itself attributes this to a immunization requirements for early intervention programs rather that a direct cause. Thompson's claim wasn't in the paper and he didn't even realize

You challenged me on every quote from RFK JR (again not my words) and never once mentioned anything about merely delaying the MMR vaccine. There's a gulf (of America?) between delaying vaccines by 6 months and the continual anti-vax propaganda coming out of RFK's mouth and people like them.
