So, my an online american friend said"My mom didn’t want to vaccine vax cuzs autism". Is he joking? I know many people say thing like that but i thought they all were joking?

In my country which is a third world country no one believe shit like that even my Grand mother who is illiterate and religious don’t believe thing like that and knows the benefit of vaccine.

    I personally know nurses who I went to school with who are anti-vax.

    Honestly, lockdown convinced me that most nurses don’t have enough education.

      Your average practice runs with one doctor on the books and a handful of nurses performing all the observations and making decisions by proxy.

      Even if they had the education and passed the classes, I worry. Working as a nurse in a regional hospital and being anti-vax isn’t a “didn’t know any better” kind of problem. These people can be trained to the gills, but if they were brought up anti-vax, they’re not going to do shit polio literally shows up on their own personal doorstep.
