Can we just quarantine the entire state? Or just… I don’t know-
Push it out into the ocean?
There's a lot of landmass between Texas and the ocean but you know what, I'm on board.
If parents and doctors aren't getting in trouble for killing their kids with quack drugs, why are they getting in trouble for giving real medication when their "child" is still in the womb?
Doctors aren't giving the kids the Vitamin A, doctors are sounding the alarm that children are coming in with Vitamin A poisoning.
Sounds like a quick call to CPS is in order, if they are still around and haven't been dumped by dumpy.
Health insurance companies shouldn't cover these people who refuse to vaccinate.
Health insurance companies shouldn't exist

Why are these people ok with isolated vitamin supplements (which are not natural), but not ok with a vaccine? I don't understand the line they draw.
"I don't know what's in the vaccine" is the dumbest excuse too. The information is available, and if you don't trust the information, why would trust the label that tells you those pills are vitamin A. They could put anything in that pill with Vitamin A.
Because they are operating on propaganda, not logic.
Because opinion is more important than fact, and choice is more important than logic.
They're contrarians and conspiracists. They will go with whatever the established authorities recommend against.
Add in just a pinch of traditionalists who think herbal supplements are better than modern medicine and that the human body is composed of 7 ancient energies capable of healing all wounds if you eat right, or some bullshit.
When everyone knows all you need to heal all wounds is to ingest 1 cup of school glue. You have to dry it on your hands and peel it off before eating it though - a lot of people get that wrong.
RFK is so ridiculously stupid.
But he once threatened a cop with a falcon, so that's cool
well ok, +1 for that. But let me check his total score.
Negative 1 for each child death he has caused. So preeeettty low
It's time to bring RFK to schools with measles outbreaks. Let him personally reassure people that the vaccine is a choice.
What, you're worried about catching measles? Why the fuck would you?
I guarantee that RFK has had the MMR vaccine.
