as i said, it was because of somalians here. i am doubtful outside of latinos that many immigrants make their way to alabama

So bottom line,... outbreaks don't happen in the most highly-unvaccinated areas of the country

[John Galt]

no, they do. i showed you a map. roughly 90% of cases of these preventable diseases have no vaccination whatsoever, others have varying degrees. if you have a compromised immune system you can still get it vaccine or no, so basically you're endangering cancer patient's and other children's lives not to mention your own kid. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15568260

also you showed a map for kindegarteners. the most unvaccinated state is alaska, not oregon. oregon doesn't even make the list of notable states. those kidegarteners have a few years ahead of them before they die horribly http://news.yahoo.com/ap-impact-more-ki ... 28437.html

the WHO estimates one out of 7 deaths of children could be prevented by vaccination. the dead kids don't deserve to be in the darwin awards, but their moronic parents do

look, go ahead, kill your children. but you shouldn't be allowed to bring them to any public school or public school function e.g., even if they are on a sports team for some Hippie Private School you can't play against anyone else because you're endangering them. i'd tryto do more restrictions but that's about all that can be easily managed.

We just need to 100% ban any kids from attending public schools without vaccinations. Its a public health hazard, much like a leaking sewer line, and I'm not making exceptions for anyone. If your religion doesn't allow it, tough. I'm fast running out a patience with religion being used a shield to justify indirect child abuse and ignorance.

I can't even imagine the rage I'd feel if my kid got sick or died because of the unthinkable idiocy of some clown listening to some celebrity or some "doctor" trying to sell a book tell them about how vaccinations cause down syndrome, autism, head lice, or whatever nonsense. FFS.

I guess women are required to be vaccinated too.

What has this world come to when people think that a woman should have rights to her own body as long as it involves killing someone, but not when it doesn't.
