    But it’s a beautiful world of straw you live in!

    You’re close. It’s actually called: “understanding facts”.

    Hey, when there is a measles outbreak, do you think it’s going to run rampant in communities where the majority of people vaccinate their children, or is it going to run rampant in the communities where people don’t vaccinate at all? Do you know why that is, because that’s how fricken vaccines work. Before I get a flu vaccine, do I ask myself, GARSH, DID EVERYONE GET A FLU VACCINE I SURE HOPE SO!!

    See? This is what I was talking about when I said you should pull your head out of your arse.

    I never said anything remotely similar to anything you’re crying about here, mate. You would understand it if you stopped to think for three seconds, but instead you’re just assuming I’m standing on a different hill than you do and immediately go screaming that I’m wrong.

    Do you even know the top 10 countries with measles outbreaks?

    Again: it’s not the point.

    Now, I’m tired of your attitude, so here’s the two points I was making, as clear as I can write them:

    1. Even vaccinated people can transmit the virus, endangering unvaccinated people.
    2. Without CDC we won’t know how bad the situation in the US is.

    If you want to shout some more, please don’t, I’ll just ignore you. If you want to have a conversation, you can switch to that and we’ll see how it goes.
