Confused? If you think a measles vaccination is the way to go, then get out and get vaccinated. Quit worrying about those that do not for what ever reason agree with you.

Let them risk catching the measles. You will be safely protected from the measles if the vaccination works as promised. But does it always work? Maybe yes, maybe no. What if you experience a nasty side-effect like paralysis or worse? The government won’t care either way. You are only a statistic to them.

Big government and too many village experts are trying to control other peoples lives for their own selfish interests. Vaccination is a personal choice. It is about being free to make your own decision and live with the possible outcomes knowing there are risks involved either way you choose. If you are among the very small percentage of the herd that die from the disease or the vaccination itself, I guess you made a bad choice or were just plain unlucky. Again, the government won’t even care to send flowers to your wake.

The bottom line is the rest of the herd, the majority, are going to survive and acquire an immunity to the measles regardless of their decision and the government’s help. But don’t trust the government to make the right decision for you. They might make a bad choice.

At the current rates, very few people will die of measles in the United States, single digits to zero for a given year. What’s really an issue with a vaccinated disease is the flu, which kills at a rate comparable to what polio used to despite mass vaccination.
