So basically we have to wait for their children to get sick with dangerous and entirely preventable diseases before we can talk about taking the necessary steps to prevent them from contracting the diseases that they have already got? This is not hypothetical, it is happening right now. Diseases that had been reduced to single figure cases are now booming in the hundreds and even thousands because of these retarded fuckwits playing dice with their children's health. And they are getting sick. I am tired of reading about outbreaks of antiquated diseases in schools.
This is a real thing and the science is in. Pertussis, measles, mumps, diphtheria, rubella. Pertussis is killing babies again, too young to be vaccinated yet, but who used to be protected by the barrier of immune people around them. Not any more. One family's unconscionable stupidity costs the life of a sensible family's child.
They're booming again now because their parents' generation got the vaccines. Because their parents lived in a time when these diseases were still prevalent and had seen what they do to people they knew and love. So they actually had the wits about them to take advantage of the miraculous preventatives provided by modern medicine, thus inadvertently creating a world where the unsubstantiated rants of daytime TV chat show guests are scarier than the actual fucking diseases making a comeback due to their own actions. Or lack thereof.
We already live in a world where the authorities step in when children are not being cared for properly, where they they are neglected even by well-meaning parents, or even abused. What I am saying is that this is both. And not just that, but their ignorant fuckery actually endangers the people around them too. Which might be solved by segregating them, though short of actual quarantine I doubt it. But even then, what I am hearing is an argument for the right of idiot parents to abuse their children. I say that they never had that right.
