It also prevents death later in life, who knew!

It can also cause infertility in men. So when the son in this skit asks why he can’t have kids she can tell him she infected him with measles on purpose cause she didn’t want to vaccinate against a severe childhood illness that could have been eradicated but instead got traded around like pokémon cards by a bunch of real bright bulbs

The risk is indeed reduced to 0% for sure!

​@@uNkrEaTIvArTsyea, dead people are infertile

I ven if they knew they still don’t care because it’s their kid. So somehow they will be special and be spared. They can’t swallow the idea off risking giving their child a shadow government vaccine, or Bill gates 666 chip, but they can gleefully ignore the risk of actually getting sick and dying or suffering. THAT risk they can ignore. I get it, HELL, even a surgeon would have a hard time taking a measured risk on their own child even if they 100% it’s the correct risk to take. But that’s why we don’t let people do surgery on their own loved ones, their mind doesn’t think right. However we didn’t use to be afraid of vaccines or vaccine conspiracies to this point .

that is not why it was because of the culture of the time a lot of unprotected sex and there were more religious couples who did not believe in contraception it isn't because tons of kids were dying from measels or anything else just hippies and christians lul

That's partly true, but also kind of a myth. People had big families because there was no birth control. Yes, child mortality was high, but there's this idea that people made the choice to have as many kids as possible in order to give them a chance of survival, and especially, this idea that people didn't care about or _even name_ their newborns? That's all a myth. People had so many kids because they had sex, because they're people. Children happened, death happened, sex happened, people largely haven't changed, just access to necessities has.

I’m 45, my grandfather was born in 1912 (we’re a family of people who have kids older lol). He lost a sibling to the 1918 flu pandemic, and before he was born one of his siblings died from the Black Death. In Australia. In the early 1900’s. These diseases are not that far away from us.

Mostly, they don't believe vaccinations will really help against it. Also, they are partly afraid of what other things the vaccines will do to their child. There is a lot involved in how such people think, most of it is emotional and not reasonable.

Because they're scared and stupid. Most of them see Facebook friends preaching about the evils of vaccines and how they can definitely for sure give your child autism. I heard some people saying the covid vaccine made people magnetic.

Having seen an adult with chicken pox --- I was relieved when all 3 of my children had it one Summer. Yes, there's a risk of Shingles later in life; however, the new Shingles vaccine is very effective. Edited to add: The adult male in his 30s with Chicken Pox had a horrible case of it, was understandably miserable, and took weeks to recover.

They're talking about getting measles, not not getting the vaccine. Measles relatively often causes infertility on males who get it, especially as an adult, but there's still a risk as a child.

Yup! I can’t imagine how scary it is to be a new parent. I worked at a NICU for a time and we always tried to explain why we gave certain vaccines or medications because it’s easier to make your own decisions when you have the information. It can be really frustrating to just be lectured, but when things (both the risks and benefits) are explained it’s usually easier to trust the information.

You were right. It does a hard reset on your immune system, has a not insignificant mortality rate, is painful, and can cause other conditions later on like autoimmune disorders that are life-threatening in and of themselves.

My mother gave me chicken pox intentionally. Boomes gonna boomer

before we had a good vaccine for chickenpox.. pox parties were a thing. My mom hated the idea and refused to take me to one. So one parent thought my mom was being a meanie brought her daughter in full costume during Halloween and the girl shoved her lollipop into my mouth to give me a taste because it was a special flavor. My mom told her to not do that please and the mother said "Oh dear... Melody you shouldn't have done that... you know you have chicken pox." and remove her mask showing full blown. As she was leaving, the girl said "But I did what you say." This sets off a series of events that effectively banned everyone in the neighborhood from setting foot in our yard.

Yeah my mom has autoimmune issues that her doctor linked to having mono in as a teenager. She didn’t get it from a party but probably from a friend who did.

Yeah, I can relate. Somehow my family managed for me to get most of the "common threats" out of the way in primary school.

Yup, here's me, born with a hole in my heart, (it healed on its own) sent over to the neighbors for a "party" so I could catch the measles. This is after I had whooping cough as a baby, and almost died. Fun! Also had mono. No badge of honor, just 3 weeks out of school and misery. Ugh. VACCINATE YO KIDS!

Yeah, but getting Chicken Pox at any age puts you at risk of Shingles when you're older. I had a mild case of shingles as a teenager. It went from my ribs down to my knee. I only call it mild because it was brought on by a UTI so bad I was in the ER. The shingles just erupted while I was there and in too much pain to feel them. My mother, on the other hand, had a reoccurring case of shingles on her lower back near the spine, for a few years. It was so persistent that it caused permanent nerve damage.

@@crowleysgirl3257Oh no... I really, reallly, REALLY hope I don't get them! Had a friend who ended up with them from head to toe. Like on her scalp, face, and everything else. They had to drug her to keep her from doing something terrible because of the pain.

Because the vaccine wasn't widely available before 1995. Until then, it was considered a best practice to contract it when you were a child, although 2 seems a bit young to me. I never heard anyone claim it would prevent shingles, but it _is_ actually worse the older you are when you get it.

@@RutabegaNG oh yeah, there’s tons of people who claim if you get chicken pox you won’t get shingles. I’ve had to look online to see if it was legit and there’s two different opinions on it. It just sucks being someone who goes through hell as an adult bc of a parent who intentionally gave you something. Also, there’s parents still doing this type of thing today when there’s vaccines for everything almost. So it’s sad

Shingles is when the chickenpox you had as a kid lying dormant in your nerves resurges as an adult though, more like she cursed you to get shingles

Crazy thing is you'll still be able to get shingles even if you got chicken pox if you got it naturally so she was wrong. My manager in 2009 got shingles from stress . Her body couldn't take the stress and started attacking itself.

As the previous replies to your original comment are correct, you’re probably going to get shingles and it directly result from your mother, getting you infected with chickenpox. I would certainly look into getting the shingles vaccine so that that way, if you do happen to develop shingles, it won’t be as bad of a case

Really? Because when my kid caught measles it was barely equivalent to a regular cold. He ran a slight fever on and off for 5 days and had the classic spots on his skin etc. but he was completely fine. Doctor seemed not concerned at all, either, and the doctor is super pro-vaccine. I was flabbergasted because I was under the impression that it was supposed to be a REALLY BAD thing to catch? This was 8 years ago... my son has been healthy.

And sue EVERYONE!

Oooo! That was good! So sad but true. Why let your child go through that?

In their mind, it wouldn't be their fault. They'd blame it on other medicines, or try and say the vaccine was secretly put into the food, air, water, etc.

What makes you think they weren't? I got the MMR and got measles 3 days later. I was in the hospital for over a month and almost died. It's why my mom stopped. She wouldn't let anyone inject me again until they could prove with science and tests that I 1. wouldn't get the disease 2. prove it was safe 3. prove it's efficacy. They never could, so she didn't. Why couldn't they prove this? Even in the literature, it says it MAY help. It doesn't guarantee you won't get it even after injected. It's meant to be preventative. not a cure.

@@6Jenne6La6Flaca6 the main issue with measles tho is not its intensity but twofold: one, it's viciously contagious. It is one of the most contagious illnesses that we have and thus while yes a kid can get it and be only mild, one becomes ten then a hundred a lot faster than say Ebola. Two, and far more dangerous, is its effect on the immune system. Measles has a nasty little superpower: it can effectively erase antibodies for other viruses. Say you got chicken pox as a child, as most should; because you did you have antibodies which makes you less likely if not unable to get it later in life. This saves lives as chicken pox is notoriously worse when you're older, potentially fatal, whereas a child with chicken pox is only inconvenienced usually. But then you get measles and you think, this isn't so bad. Until you get chicken pox as an adult. But wait that's not right, you should have antibodies! Except you don't anymore; because you got measles your immune system was reset. Those antibodies? Gone. And suddenly illnesses you survived once, that because you had antibodies against you should be okay against a second time, are just like new for you. That's what makes measles a menace; it's not a dangerous illness because of its potency but its so contagious, and it has such a negative effect on the immune system, that it is a serious threat that requires vaccination.

@6Jenne6La6Flaca6 If he got the vaccine, measles will be less violent. That or it wasn't measles. There's a good amount of diseases that mimic measles but aren't actually measles

Depending on how old you were that may have been the best protocol at the time. There was no vaccine in the US until 1995 and chicken pox is MUCH more serious the older a person gets, so parents were encouraged to have their kids get it while they were young. My husband got it at 14 and had pox through his mouth and down his throat. He also ran a 104 F fever and was delirious for three days. Stinks that you got it twice!

Now there's a problem They did not create a vaccine The crap that you're allowing them to put in your body is not a vaccine and The Bayer corporation President during their stockholder meeting said so He said well we had to say it was a vaccine because we were able to put the DNA manipulator into 80% of the population instead of telling them the truth that it wasn't a vaccine and it was going to manipulate their DNA hopefully to fight against the virus this doing something that's never been done before not tested etc so we would only get 20%, we reverse the numbers Now only 20% of the population in the world is not vaccinating well guess what China didn't vaccinate their people They couldn't give a crap. Because they created it they know what it's there to kill and they have so many people they don't want to stop killing they've got to get their numbers down to be able to feed the amount of people they have be self-sufficient fend off any adversaries and get rid of the excess elderly they had that they no longer needed. They have this huge huge population of elderly people that they cannot afford to feed put into housing etc That's why communism doesn't work. You have all these people at the end of their life expecting you to take care of them and you're broke if you do that It's hard enough on our country that we are trying to do it with social Security and then we started paying people who would never even paid into it we're using social Security to pay for people who come here for asylum etc It's coming out of that money that was supposed to take care of the elderly and the indigent the sick & disabled. Well it isn't doing that anymore. Try being an American and get your social Security that you worked for yeah Biden put in a new law that you're 49 and you can possibly get it that's because there was a complaint about it but guess what The states have a quota and if your quota gets filled too bad too bad for you that you're at the end of the year and you don't get it your your little measly check that you work so hard for putting in every time you got paid since you were 15 years old and now you're 49 maybe 52 you work so hard to try and keep working even though you were disabled even though you were getting sicker and sicker even though you fought through cancer and made it back to work They don't care about you They only care about someone who's going to vote for them as far as their concerned you're dead to them because there's not much they can give you You don't provide a vote that has a strong enough wish list You deserve your social security You're not going to appreciate them giving it to you because you earned it and they take it away instead we're sorry We just don't have any room for an American born here female married no kids at home Don't think I'd want my kids at home when I'm 50 I think I'd really hope that they were grown and on their way Oh my kids were growing and on their way out of the house doing what they're supposed to be doing not living at home happy as could be summit said can I come back and help you Mom do you want me to like no and it wouldn't have done any good anyway because they were past the age of 18 I just love how my government manipulated me and paying for something they weren't going to give me

my mother was so glad that her children didn't have to fear disease the way she did as a child - she lost classmates to polio etc. She died in 2019, and at the time I never would have guessed I'd be grateful she didn't last another year. The antivaxxers and antimaskers would have broken her heart.

@@FerretKibble they definitely broke my grandmother's heart for sure 💔 she was locked up tight in her home with her cats during the entire pandemic.

​@@FerretKibblei would love to have talked to my great grandmother about this stuff but she passed away when I was in middleschool. I have still seen these horrid diseases that we don't have vaccines for like Ebola (that one may have changed) and god that shit is terrifying. God forbid unvaccinated rabies. Honest if theres one vaccine you should never turn down it's the rabies one As far as I'm aware it has NEVER failed and you can use your fingers to count how many unvaccinated people survived it after symptoms showed. Rabies is like the scariest common virus

Did you have chicken pox? Cuz that sounds like how I remember our folks doing with chicken pox.

@@toshaville I think I got a couple of things, because I remember it happening twice. Mumps and chicken pox.

​@@toshavilleyeah I definitely was intentionally exposed to chicken pox as a kid, still have a small scar on my face. Then the vaccine came out a couple years later... Ah well. My mom did it with good intentions and it ended up working out for me ok. My daughter got the poke asap, I even asked about the MMR vaccine when I was pregnant but they said no lol

He’s not actually a doctor. He’s a nurse, and that doesn’t count. Don’t overthink it honey. Antivax people aren’t really known for being logical.

Because she thinks random idiots on social media know more and are incredibly gullible

me when my grandma sees a dr and says she doesnt trust drs.

Just because you see many of them should not pass university, does not mean all of them dont.

Isn't he a nurse? I have problems keeping up with these characters.

pneumonia?

​@@linebrunelle1004 pneumonia is illness that inflames your lung's air sacks, which get filled with fluid, eventually drowning you from inside if left untreated, usually happens in single lung i think, so double pneumonia is when it happens in both

Your mad at OTHERS for refusing to inject poison into their bodies? You've got issues. You can't expect other people to make health decisions about their own bodies solely based off of how it's going to effect YOUR feelings. Nobody who is unvaccinated is going to get you sick. The sickest people you have to watch out for are the ones whose immune systems have been messed up by vaccines.

Fun fact: if you go through chemotherapy, it wipes out all your prior immunity, so after remission, cancer patients need to get revaccinated for everything. There's also some illnesses, including measles and COVID, that can wipe out prior immunities, too.

You have every right to be mad.

I know I commented on this but my comment is not here... wtf

weird isn't NY one of the places its spreading again wonder if they no longer require that or maybe they are allowing exemptions but man I really wish these idiots would just do the right thing and get their kids vaccinated.

But the illegal migrants were not required to have any vaccines for months while they put their kids in school. Not cool.
