    My newborn is getting all their vax in 2 weeks, had to do an explanation for PTO so I’d be there for them. The first thing after I sent the request to my boss was, “have you looked into all the vaccines and how they affect them”. I just don’t understand why these proven vaccines are always in question

      It’s because these ‘so called experts’ are liars, sometimes. We thought Aristotle was right, until we found out he was wrong and a total removed. We thought the same of Galileo and Newton until they were proven liars and total removed. So how do we know these vaccine scientists aren’t liars and total removed. /S

        What is frustrating is that these people will gobble up any bullshit that a snake oil vendor post on Facebook and they reject modern medicine until they need it. Bunch of hypocrite idiots.

    As someone who wants to get their child vaccinated but their pediatrician is having trouble getting in the vaccines, is there another option in the US? Every local pharmacy only has certain COVID/flu shots and nothing that would work for an infant

      That seems very strange if it goes on too long. I’d suggest calling another pediatricians office.

      WTF! What is going on?

      What’s the pediatrician attribute the shortage to? Tell me it was just somebody in their office forgetting to re-order somehow…

    My GF and I were talking about vaccines and COVID, mainly doubts about them. We both got the vaccine pretty quick. A lot of the talk was about how a healthy skepticism of the profit driven US healthcare system leaves room for doubt. It’s not like the vaccine made us any less sick or prevented us from catching it, or transmitting it. So we were asking ourselves what was the point?

    Ultimately we landed at a pretty logical conclusion which is that the widespread vaccine seemed to ultimately drop the total COVID rate down and we seem to catch some variant of it similar to the flu once a year now. My sister works in healthcare and she usually knows when COVID is making the rounds. I don’t find myself leaning antivaxx. I am skeptical of the Trump and Biden administrations both though in the USA. It’s all too odd how willing people are to put their faith into the vaccine with literally zero doubts.

          “the 20-year streak of measles being eliminated in the us” is the road.

          You are wrong, it would be the point of impact according to your method of marking. Also the streak itself is not signified by the road but the people alive already in the bus, again according to your logic. As The Quuuuuill mentioned, “The meme is flexible. Your attitude is not”
