What do you mean "blames"?? No it is the cause of the outbreak.... people not getting vaccinated are the cause. Period. We have decades and decades of no measles with people being vaccinated...then dipshits magically thought they new better and stopped...and now we have outbreaks. All evidence points to them ...not some vaccine resistant strain.

Measles doesn't seem to mutate easily and still be infectious since the vaccines clearly worked so well, but it'd be better if we didn't try our luck by letting it grow in all these unvaccinated people.
The last thing we need is to have to re-vaccinate people if it does happen to mutate to evade our immunity. It'd be a disaster in today's climate.
I'm all for personal choice but if you choose to not have your children immunised, you're not the one who suffers.
The children and those who can't receive vaccinations do.
Which is why this infuriates me. People are harming others so that in most cases they can gain clout with other conspiracy fuck nuts.
There's no personal choice when you live in a community when your choice affects such community. You don't have a choice not to follow the laws, etc. There should be no choice not to vaccinate your kids. Don't want to vaccinate? Move to another country.
When it comes to public safety, personal choice ends when you choose to take part in society. These people are selfish scum who refuse to give a fuck until they are personally affected.
You don’t get to choose, there’s a reason schools required vaccinations.
In the wild, some animals eat their young. This is the human equivalent. Some people just aren’t meant to exist. Whether it be because of their own stupidity, or the unfortunate luck of being born into stupidity.
We can do what we can to educate these idiots, but at the end of the day- they’re still going to do what they want.
It’s not simply “oh they will die, it’s their fault.”
It doesn’t end there, they spread the diseases farther allowing them to mutate. It negatively impacts everyone around them.
Yes. They must be shunned for the good of society.
NYC has an island they set aside for this purpose for scurvy when they thought it was communicable, right?
Misinformed, gullible, idiotic people, the article failed to add.
Polio isn’t far behind. FUCK YOU ANTIVAX SCUM
There is probably measles parties..
Maybe we can invite them to a rabies/ebola party and lock the door.
Darwinism.
