25 Of The Best Responses Doctors And Other Medical Professionals Had To Anti-Vaxxers
Nobody wants to face the public wrath of the internet but anti-vaxxers experience this daily as people continue to troll them, however, you know what's even worse than getting challenged by someone you don't know online - someone online with a medical degree. That's right according to data analysis from CNN measles cases in the United States have surpassed the highest number on record since the disease was declared eliminated nationwide in 2000.
Doctors are employing all strategies to fight the disease from using electronic medical records to identify unvaccinated patients living in outbreak zones to refusing to accept patients who haven't been vaccinated - and now they have taken the fight to Twitter. Sure some of these savage tweets are funny, but believe it or not, fighting misinformation on the internet is vitally important, even when it's done in a simple tweet. Scroll down below to read some anti-vaxxers get destroyed by doctors and don't forget to upvote your favs!

That's the kind of language that everyone should use to these incredible blockheads that refuse to have their offspring vaccinated.
Measles became a nationally notifiable disease in the United States in 1912, meaning that health care providers and laboratories were required to report diagnosed cases. During the first decade of reporting, an average of about 6,000 measles-related deaths were reported annually.
RELATED:
In the 1950s, researchers found a way to isolate the measles virus in a patient's blood, and in the 1960s, they were successful in transforming the isolated virus into a vaccine. The vaccine was licensed and became part of the measles vaccination program, introduced in 1963.

Before the introduction of the measles vaccination program, according to the CDC, there was an estimated 3 to 4 million people getting infected with the disease yearly nationwide. Following this program the numbers of cases and deals from measles substantially dropped. In 1994 there were 963 reported cases, which fell to 508 cases in 1996.
Jump forward to 2000, when the disease was declared eliminated in the U.S and there were only 86 reported cases. This meant there had been no continuous transmission of the disease for over 12 months. These numbers only continued to plummet until a resurgence in 2014 where the country experienced 23 separate outbreaks, which occurred primarily among the unvaccinated Amish community.
In 2018 the U.S saw 17 separate outbreaks and the numbers continue to climb. According to the CDC, the disease was largely imported and spread among unvaccinated pockets: "Eighty-two people brought measles to the U.S. from other countries in 2018. This is the greatest number of imported cases since measles was eliminated from the U.S. in 2000."

Above explanation by Eve Switzer pretty much describes what anti-vaxxers do on the internet and in real life, and it also describes why they are sometimes succesful. "Health freedom" sounds so much better than being "pro desease" and "quackery".

It's my firm belief that vaccines should be required by law (unless you have a medical condition preventing it) and parents should face prosecution if they do not vaccinate their children

You see the problem with freedom of choice is that your freedom ends where it starts to endanger the lives of other people. It's as simple as that.

I agree. Freedom of choice is essential to every non-distopian society. But endagering the lives of others because of your stupidity is unacceptable.

This. The antivaxx movement is based on a hatred of autistic people so deep that parents prefer a dead child to a different one. How disgusting is that? (also autism has less than nothing to do with vaccines, it never has)

Have you read the Miss Marple book A Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side by Agatha Christie? It's inspired by a true story. Actress Gene Tierney gave birth to a deaf, partially blind baby with severe mental disabilities in the 40's due to being infected with rubella by a fan during her pregnancy. In the book, the character inspired by her is driven to murder when she finds out about who the fan is. Sorry for spoiling the story for those who haven't read it, but I'd say better spoiling a book and still being informed about *real* tragedies that happened less than a century ago.

I am one of the 20% of people who the whooping cough vaccine does not work for. My mother vaccinated me and I got it 3 times. Also I got measles at 7 months old. If other a******s would give the weaker of us herd immunity it would be great. Also I now as an adult have a child with an autoimmune disease which leaves her more vulnerable again hers immunity would be nice. My own health and daughters has suffered as a result of others not vaccinating
Erik Granqvist 5 years ago (edited)
Yeah, I had measles when i was a kid. Because it was a long time ago, and they started to vaccinate peoplr here just after it ran thru my family. Let me tell you, it was no fun neither to me nor any other kid in the family. And yes. We all got it. It ran kind crazy thru the school where my older sister was.

ANOTHER QUESTION TO ALL ANTI-VAXXERS: If you have both pets and children, how come you have a problem vaccinating your children against diseases and not have a problem with vaccinating your cat/dog/horse (seeing as how many of these vaccines are mandatory when you own a pet)? Can you please explain why you put more value on your pets' life than your children's?

My husband was diagnosed with hpv throat cancer. He went through utter hell. Chemo once a week and radiation every day. He dropped to 132 lbs. Blood transfusions, 7 days in the hospital for an infection he got from no immune system. Vomiting all day unable to eat. In remission he has perminent damage to his throat makes swallowing food difficult, salivary glands damaged so has severe dry mouth which makes eating even harder. Taste buds damaged. Not the same mentally. Yes he is 5 years out in remission and praise God he is still here. DO YOU THINK HE WOULD LET HIS OWN SON FOREGO HPV VACCINATION? Anyone who would sentence their child to that should go to jail for child abuse. Freaking Evil.

At some point an at Iskander child is going to die, and the will be a direct obvious link with an un vaxxed child. What would be the legal consequences of that? Hopefully prison time for the parents. Would love to see the idiot "Dr" who started this mess serve time as well

The doctor who started the anti-vaccine movement had his medical license revoked because no others were able to get similar results and his data was found to be fabricated. There is no link between autism and vaccines.

First, VACCINES DON'T CAUSE AUTISM. Second, AUTISM ISN'T BAD. I've never met an anti-vaxxer, but I'd probably end up slapping them and then ranting for an hour. Based on these (and other posts), they probably wouldn't listen or care. Can you tell that I'm five seconds away from flying into a rage? Can you?!?

Maybe a law should be passed whereby all Anti-Vaxers be corralled and sent to an island in the middle of nowhere where they will have no contact with others who have been vaccinated. Eventually that community will all die off of their own accord. Sounds cruel, but there it is,.
Marnee DeRider 5 years ago
There IS one rational argument for not vaccinating. That is that there are too many people in the world. It used to be that many children died before the age of 5. (That is where the myth came from that people were "old" in their 30s...the average age was skewed way down due to children dying of "childhood" diseases.) If anyone argues against vaccinating for any other reason than that they actually want lots of children to die to reduce population, then they are idiots. Not that I think it's a good argument for not vaccinating, but is the only rational argument I can think of.

I have a question tho as my vegan friend has said they test vaccines on animals and although she still vaccinates that for vegans this is the issue, not the autism/big brother govt b******t. I don't know enough about his they're made but I had hoped we were evolved enough not to test c**p on animals. Tho obviously they still do. Anyone any info or thoughts?

I've been saying for the last several years that vaccination is a public health matter. It should be legislated and enforced. With the stiffest of penalties for non-compliance, (children taken away from idiot, neglectful parents). The only exception being medical reasons. This should supersede all beliefs. Anyone who tries to argue against this should be reminded that you can't yell "FIRE!" in a crowded theatre.

Most of us (if not all) were vaccinated against measles as children. Even those who did get sick, it was a mild form, less dangerous. And lots survive today too, but what about those who don't? There was also the herd immunity for those too young or unable to get vaccinated, which is starting to disappear nowadays...
