Regardless of your belief in vaccines, a foster child is legally in the custody of the state and they make the medical decisions. So if they say the child can only be placed in a home where all the occupants are fully vaccinated then either comply or return the kid.

Getting vaccinated is so unnatural....shoves 5 donuts into mouth. Fat people are stupid.

Future pharmacist, they are pretty effective at preventing the no shit flu. Everyone gets a little fever and maybe some gastroenteritis and thinks that have "the flu." If you actually get the strain of flu you get a vaccine for you'd guarantee yourself a trip to the ER. History has forgotten all the extremely deadly flu epidemics in the early 1900s.

Anecdata alert!!
I've been getting the flu shot every year for almost 10 years. I've been exposed to a lot of people with the flu. I haven't had the flu yet. They make a best educated guess at which strains will be most active in a given flu season. There are usually three strains the vaccine will protect against. Sometimes, though, they don't guess correctly or there may be a different strain that's more prevelant in one area.
Having said that, I don't get too up in arms about people not vaccinating for the flu. Other diseases like polio, rubella, mumps, measles, etc.? Yes, vaccinate or go to some isolated island somewhere.

Unfortunately it IS a vaccination issue, from the original article.
Because the flu shot will give you mercury poisoning... that's how this works.

Distrust of government is rational given the countless horrors they routinely inflict. Unfortunately, despite being good things, advice about both vaccinations and healthy eating come from the same mouthpiece. This leaves people with only their common sense to rely on which means low IQ people are completely fucked. Kidnapping their child merely inflames the situation.
Look at it from their point of view: why is the government right this time? Every other time the government has been shown to be evil (wars, pollution, excess tax on the poor, immigration, failure to enforce the law, brutal social engineering, cultural marxism, etc). We are left in the terrible situation where any institution is seen as corrupt, even if they are genuinely trying to do the right thing (preventing outbreaks of disease).
