4/5 kids survived. Those are great numbers if you’re living in the 19th century.
The denial after the fact is a necessary coping mechanism. Otherwise, they will suffer from the guilt of killing their child.
Which they absolutely did.
So she’s a child murdering monster. Got it.
“Pro-life” I’m sure.
Help! I’m trapped in a shit hole country and surrounded by moronic assholes.
The most generous way I can look at this is to say she’s in denial. Five unvaccinated children with one dead. Apparently a 20% fatality rate (in her family) is not enough of a reason to get the vaccine.
The most generous way I can look at this is she’s a danger to her children, and they should be removed from her. Rejecting vaccines should not be a choice, just like choosing to starving your children should not be a choice.
That’s a 20% mortality rate. If vaccines had anywhere near that level of mortality risk, all the streets of every city in the world would be absolutely fucking littered with bodies. You have to be one dumb motherfucker to think this is some kind of vindication for your antivax position.
There was another story the other day of a father whose unvaccinated daughter died of measles, and he said he was still glad she didn’t get the vaccine because he didn’t trust what’s in it to be safe. These people’s minds are not functioning rationally.

I assumed this is the same family. If not, measels may be doing it’s thing.
Measles is insanely infectious. People have no clue the fire they’re inviting into our lives. Even vaccinated people are at risk.
Yes, so often we see people online saying “Ha ha, let the morons get COVID/measles/bird flu/etc!” They don’t stop to think about the risk to everyone else, particularly vulnerable people some of whom can’t get vaccinated and rely on herd immunity. In all these years still that lesson doesn’t seem to have been learned. I suspect the people saying this are healthy young people who haven’t really considered how different from theirs some people’s lives are.
Many of them are likely just annoyed and use it as a coping mechanism. It’s understandable. I find it easy to believe that when a group of people wants to kill and or deport you, your family members, friends, or even your neighbors. That resentment will build and ultimately people will say they want things to get worse faster so it opens eyes faster and we as a community start fixing the problem sooner. For example it’s why I have at times wanted Trump to ignore/piss off the courts more once he already has violated people’s rights since only violating some people’s rights people are coping with just fine. A good example of something that would harm and possibly kill many people before things were fixed is social security. Many people would say we would be fine with it at this point if social security checks just stopped going out. It’s not because we want those people to die. It’s because we want an act like that to happen sooner rather than later. It would directly impact the largest majority who supported this administration. So something so blatantly obvious is harder to get blame shifted, and the people who only say to themselves “am I better off now” would have to admit to themselves they are not. Opening the door to possibilities of a rapid change through grander support. The bill of rights has been ignored, the constitution has been ignored, so many believe the only reason they are “playing” that the government is still in function is to ensure they have replaced all the people they need with sycophants so when the mask does eventually shatter, it is to late for anyone to really do anything. All media outlets controlled, all Government entities (including elections), all large corporations, the food, water, energy… All controlled to make it so we can be tamed and drivin like sheep.
In a dictatorship we are all slaves with no rights, people right now are still believing we have rights because the facade.
People like this should be treated the same as parents who drive their kids without car seats and seat belts.
This is why you don’t vote idiots into the white house. Imagine this quality idiot dictating policy.
You’d better avoid FDA news for a while😬
Love it or hate it: having a litter of children works. You can neglect them and a few might make it to adulthood.
20% death rate seems somewhat normal for unvaccinated
… This isn’t an onion article. That’s horrifying.
Crazy that anti-vax has even a fig leaf of personal liberty as a defense. Yes, you do have the right to make your own choices and you can be a negligent parent in 1000 different ways.
But this isn’t even close to a personal freedom issue. You being a dumb piece of shit is a direct threat to the rest of society. YOU don’t get to make the personal choice to kill MY child.
It should be simple for these serious diseases: unless you have a certified medical issue preventing it, you have to get the shot. Fuck any objection (personal, religious, whatever…). If there’s some negative side effect or a bad vaccine batch, you get generously compensated for our collective societal fault in harming you.
Strap them down and jab them, let them bitch and moan about everyone’s children being alive and healthy later.
Either that or, more gently, ban them from public spaces if they haven’t had the vaccine – schools, public administrations, grocery stores, malls, churches…
This is the approach I would suggest. I do not agree with forcing people to take vaccines, but if they want to be part of society then this is a reasonable requirement. It’s simply an extension of the duty of care principle we already have for healthcare environments where vaccination and other measures are required for people to work in.
I will skip this particular circle jerk where we all say vaccines are amazing together in a big ring. :)
I dont feel any anger of someone decides to not vaccinate. Its their decision.
It wasn’t that 6 year old kids decision.
Yep thats true.
