So, I’m not sure what percentage of this board is on the anti-vax train, but let’s get a general outline going here.
tetanus
polio
rabies
smallpox
and many other diseases
Have either been virtually eliminated by vaccines or at least vaccines have been proven beyond any doubt to work. Pic related. Josh Hightower had received an organ from somebody who had been bitten by a bat in Arkansas and died in Texas. He received a kidney for glomerulosclerosis that he had suffered since birth. He came down with rabies 27 days later and died. Why? Because the donor didn’t get a vaccine.
Anyone who believes in this anti-vax shit is stupid. And I’m not talking stupid in a “2+2=5” way but in an actual Darwin Award kind of way. Just about every disease that has a vaccine for it the vaccine has been PROVEN to prevent disease. I just don’t see how anybody could unironically believe that refusing to vaccinate their children for tetanus after they got cut by a rusty saw blade won’t result in the child getting lockjaw. How retarded are anti-vaxxers?

I apologize for some of my shitflinging, of which I am admittedly responsible for. But sometimes, a carefully-crafted argument can be effectively destroyed with much fewer words than the original argument itself.

While that's true, there's also the issue of bullshit requiring more energy to refute than to propagate. Though, you're intelligent and capable of self reflection, so i'd say you're squarely above a good deal of anons here.
