You can thank all those people that didn't immunize their kids because they listened to people like Jenny Mccarthy.

You should see them when they come into the ER. As part of the standard history taking, I ask "Are your child's immunizations up to date?"

These buffoons are just waiting for that question. I swear to God, their child could be dying of an acute asthma exacerbation or overwhelming sepsis, yet the minute THAT question is asked, their child doesn't matter, only the opportunity to "get into it" with someone in the "Medical Establishment."

They tilt up their heads, puff out their chests, change their tone and say with an insolence bordering on Joe Pesci in "Goodfellas." "No."

They never say "We don't believe in them." That would rob them of the chance to answer the question "Well, why not?" with "We don't believe in them and the medical establishment blah, blah, blah......"


(bleep) and their children benefit from herd immunity, yet they don't want to participate because they and that (bleep) Jenny McCarthy know more than the entirety of the medical community on this matter. Makes me want to transport them back to the days before we did have vaccinations, maybe see half of their children die of these entirely preventable diseases. Instead, they live amongst us and expose the young, sick, elderly, immunocompromised and pregnant patients to diseases that cost real human lives.

(bleep) (bleep).

Come on KBCB. . . if a fully learned and accredited physician advises you immunize your child, how are you supposed to go with that advice when there's a semi-porn star/"actress" and a dozen of your fellow stay at home moms who hold BA's in Husband Finding telling you your child will get a brain disorder from a simple vaccine?

You Doctors are SOOOOO full of yourselves.

I read somewhere (and I'm paraphrasing) that there's 15x more formaldehyde on your average apple than there is in a single vaccine.

My son isn't up to date because certain vaccines like MMR and Varicella are incubated in eggs. He has an acute allergy to eggs, milk and wheat, and his doctor would rather not risk it.

oh just (bleep) great. I planned on taking my family next month after not being there for 2 years. I have a 6 month old and now I'm getting second thoughts because some (bleep) hippie decided not to vaccinate.

My kids both are crazy allergic to many things including eggs. During a check-up with their allergist, he had the nurse administer their vaccinations since they were already in the hospital. I'm sure everyone is different and I'm the first to say to trust your physician, but a second opinion might not be a bad idea.

While the whole anti-vaccine things is nutty, I think the coverage on this has been pretty funny too.

It's like there's an Ebola outbreak.

In 2000 562,000 people World Wide died from Measles, in 2012, that number was down to 122,000. The WHO estimates that during that time period alone, over 13 million Measles deaths were prevented by the vaccination. So, yeah, it's worthy of all the coverage, far more than Ebola.

Measles is not a joke or a benign disease.

You're making it more dramatic than it is.

We all grew up in times with measles.

It's not a joke of a disease, but it's not like it has a high mortality rate.

Don't get me wrong. It's great that it's so rare now that every outbreak is an anomaly.

But people are freaking out. I swear, the only thing more important going on in the world is probably the Patriots playing with under-inflated footballs.

Losing someone to a preventable disease is awful. Especially since the measles vaccine is given with two other vaccinations, that is 3 diseases we don't have to worry about in one. It just shouldn't happen. Infecting other people with preventable disease is awful too. Herd immunity could be protecting our children and elderly.
There isn't a good enough scientific reason to not get a vaccination, the belief is based in conjecture or some preconceived notion. That does not trump the safety of others.
