@Burning Bush.

That is your right. And society has the right to refuse to permit you, your children and anyone else that choose the same as you to attend school, be hired for work, attend any event in which your possible non vaccination can lead to infecting others especially those that have real medical issues that comprise their immune systems! Perhaps less USA TV and movies that all have some great conspiracy background and more factual education would help!

The ignorant are always with us.

In their self centred ignorance they ignore the rights of everyone else not to be endangered by their actions

The body is private realm and nobody can force you to inject anything into it if you don't want that.

As long as you deal with the consequences of that decision and keep isolated from the community. The problem with irrational antivaxxers is that they don't want to accept those consequences and think everybody else have to deal with their illogical decisions.

How would you react if the kid in the desk next to yours in the school came from a family that believes that active radioisotopes applied abundantly to the skin are healthy? would you be perfectly ok with that as "body private realm"?

Very emotional topic. Lack of transparency fuels all accusations. I personally don’t trust any official word just because some so-called expert says something. Too many interests involved. I hope I won’t have to cross that bridge, or my family. It’s not about ignorance not lack of public mindedness. It isn’t black and white. To me it’s a very grey area.

Anti-vaxxers are the willingly-diseased who walk amongst us. Gross. They deserve all the disdain of humanity.

There have been several programs on radio and TV detailing how Putin has intentionally used his government funded internet trolls to intentionally spread disinformation, and sow discord, outside of Russia. It isn't a matter of him gaining anything for himself or his country by his actions, but rather that he enjoys doing it because of his warped personality.
