Those of us who are old enough to have had measles, mumps and chicken pox see this as a giant control scam.
There are good reasons we vaccinate against diseases many of us had as kids.
Measles can cause deafness and brain damage, mumps can leave boys sterile, and rubella can cause birth defects in unborn children.
Until the MMR vaccine was developed in the 1960s these were real public health challenges. I’m sure you don’t want them back.
Measles, mumps and chicken pox are relatively benign diseases in children. However they are often catastrophic in adults. When the vaccines became available , there were some scientists who felt immunizing children may have been somewhat misguided and the vaccines should have been given primarily to adults who demonstrated no immunity. The problem of course is that large numbers of people are entering the US as adults with no immunity. Also some are concerned that the vaccines people received as children may begin to “wear off” as these children enter their forties and fifties. Stay tuned.
2 in 1000 will die, 1 in 1000 will develop brain damage and many others will be stuck with big hospital bills. Yeah, it ain’t no big thing.
