Low vaccine uptake is, on a long enough timeline, a self-correcting problem (ominously)

Heh 😬

Measles is normally the first indicator, it really springs containment pretty early, mutates a lot, really makes a problem for itself, but pertussis kills babies and when the babies start to go people really snap to attention

People have forgotten how incredibly horrible childhood mortality is which is one of if not the greatest achievement of modern science. That parents are so brainfucked as to even consider not vaccinating their children is purest madness.

My hot take is that Andrew Wakefield should be hanged by the neck until dead.

My most illiberal stance is that childhood vaccination should be mandatory no exceptions.

Like we don’t let people have “religious exemptions” from running red lights!

I remember when this was starting to become really controversial (2021?) and other nurses were arguing "well, would you really forcibly vaccinate someone?" and: yes. absolutely yes I would

My proposal was 'Vaccine or the sea' because it was simple. You understood it right away. You could get the vaccine, or you could take to the sea.
