    The majority of assholes in these areas are still vaccinated, unfortunately. It’s the kids that will be suffering, from the decisions of their parents. If disease would eradicate the unvaccinated quickly enough to wipe out the texas undesirables, we wouldn’t have had the current election outcome in the first place.

      As Hank Green said: They won’t start caring until the children start dying. He points to evidence that says that, vaccination rates decline due to mistrust or “health”, then kids start dying and they rise again. He uses multiple countries as historical examples, it’s great.

        Yup. The bible belt in the netherlands was a great contributor to the study of epidemics. Measles outbreaks are very consistent. Every 10 years an outbreak occurs there.
