I don’t think people understand how bad measles is:
Furthermore, measles’s reproductive number estimates vary beyond the frequently cited range of 12 to 18.[17] The NIH quote this 2017 paper saying: “[a] review in 2017 identified feasible measles R0 values of 3.7–203.3”
The measles virus can deplete previously acquired immune memory by killing cells that make antibodies, and thus weakens the immune system, which can cause deaths from other diseases.[42][43][44] Suppression of the immune system by measles lasts about two years and has been epidemiologically implicated in up to 90% of childhood deaths in third world countries, and historically may have caused rather more deaths in the United States, the UK and Denmark than were directly caused by measles.
Just wait until a third of the US doesn’t vaccinate for it – you’re going to have 1980’s levels of deaths to it, and it will be mostly children.
So here’s what you’re gonna do. You test. And you spread factual information. Oh and you protest. Good news is people won’t be frothing at the mouth celebrating your death, getting folks to not celebrate us dying was like half the battle.
Oh and an old prostitute once told me that after enough of her friends died she just broke and walked to another city (like days of walking distance). It’s not a good plan A, but don’t throw the idea out prematurely
I’m in Canada, and I do most of those things already, but this is great advice in general. I warn specifically about Measels because I have family who (thankfully, were) immune to the vaccine, so they’d get warnings from doctors like “we’ve seen a rise in people not vaccinating so… avoid bringing (my cousin) to large gatherings of people like concerts, and try to keep them in schools with higher vaccination rates.” They’re teenaged and were finally able to get the vaccine to work (I don’t have the details, just that it worked) but my cousin missed seeing Raffi because some conservative fucks decided they didn’t care enough about children dying to vaccinate theirs.
RFK Jr. as Health Secretary.
Measels is going to fuck the US up.
Not before Zombie Roald Dahl rises from his grave and forcibly vaccinates every child in the world.
Or bird flu.
Or polio. Or some other preventable disease.
Watch
It will be all of them. Then he’ll introduce something that has a brainworm parasite in it to “cure” it. The animorph brain work thing.
I’m telling you guys, that “dead” brainworm ain’t dead.

You spelled “and” wrong. 3 times.
