    Vaccines aren’t perfect immunity for everyone. It’s herd immunity. You could have been vaccinated and still get it because it’s only 99% effective. Children can’t get it until they are 2 months old. There are thousands of kids with medical conditions that made them unable to be vaccinated.

    On the other hand I would’t protest if the newborn grandchildren of that doctor were exposed to polio in front of him. Conservatives are incapable of empathy. It must affect them personally.

    Although there was a family in Texas where the child died and the mom still said she made the right choice to not vaccinate.
