The campaign to change the rules was years in the making, orchestrated in part by two men with close ties to US health secretary RFK Jr
When a federal judge in Mississippi ordered a sweeping rollback of the state’s strict school vaccine rules in 2023, the ruling hit some doctors like “a gut punch”.
Mississippi had for years achieved some of the highest vaccination rates in the US for children – a point of pride in a place that consistently ranks at the bottom of other health measures.
The state health director warned of the dire possible consequences, including a comeback of preventable illnesses like measles, diphtheria and pertussis – known as whooping cough.
“None of these diseases are gone,” Dr Daniel Edney told a talk radio host as the state implemented the newly ordered rules. “They’ve not been eradicated. They’re just waiting. They’re lurking.”
Fucking idiots. I’d laugh and say “have the day you voted for!”…but I cannot. Children, who have no say in any of this insanity, will be directly affected by these moronic policies.
None of this should be able to be torn down by anyone except for the scientists and medical professionals that do the fucking research, and have the fucking data.
How many kids will suffer because of this?
It really does break my heart, these children didn’t ask for this and we didn’t need more data points to know this would be the case.
Pro life, amirite?
“God works in mysterious ways.”
The leaders of the anti-vaccine movement must be put on a trial for crimes against humanity.
Is this the state that ranked 49 out of 50 in education? Surely no one is surprised
Baby not drinking enough raw milk obviously.
All part of the Republican eugenics program.
Guess which country they are actually dragging back to the stone age.
It’s what he does
Just like his bullshit he pulled in Samoa killing people with the Measles.
Having read Naomi Klein’s Doppelganger, I think for the proto/pre-fascist antivax crowd that’s… acceptable, even desirable, because it means cleaning up the race from weak immune systems.
