    I literally want to stab someone in the face...

    NOT SEVERAL DAYS.

    Seriously, what about the fact that these diseases are deadly....
    Let the anti-vaccine crowd people catch something and exterminate themselves. Then we won't have to hear their shit anymore

    that would work if they were isolated, they're not. Vaccinations don't always work to protect people, which is why almost everyone has to be vaccinated for a disease to be eradicated. Ohio has been having a serious issue with mumps and measles because of the anti-vacc crowd: http://fox8.com/2014/07/18/state-say...uld-be-at-end/

    NY had a measles outbreak too. Its ridiculous.

    "To see your own normal happy child regress shortly after receiving the vaccine and then diagnosed with Autism is such hard thing for a parent to watch."

    Autism, worse than deadly illnesses guys.

    What's with all this worry about measles? It's not like measles is deadly. Right, Tenlaar?

    They probably will say it is full of shit though. When that fails, show them this part of the site.

    Oh gods, GR's chart shows that around 0.000176875% of the population has gotten the measles and conveniently doesn't show how many were maimed, killed, or even had to go to the hospital!

    IT'S AN EPIDEMIC, HIDE YO KIDS HIDE YO WIFE!

    It's pretty funny watching your reaction to measles. On one hand you have the vaccination crowd who thinks having a vaccinated society is an awesome thing because, well, it saves lives.

    Then you have the anti vaccinated crowd who are certain that vaccinations cause autism, even though they have no proof.

    Then there's your argument of who cares because measles isn't dangerous anyways.

    People die. It sucks and all I guess, but it happens. People die in all kinds of crazy ways. People die from falling out of bed. People die from tripping while walking down a sidewalk. People drown in their bathtubs.

    I am not anti-vaccination. I am anti-baseless hysteria. When a disease kills an average of one person a year, no, I don't consider it dangerous. Pointing out that 500 something people out of roughly 320,000,000 got the measles does not suddenly make it a dangerous epidemic.

    From 20 seconds of googling... "However, the majority of measles patients will feel extremely sick for approximately one week, and up to 30% will suffer some sort of complication to the disease, ranging from diarrhea, ear infections, or pneumonia to seizures or hearing loss as a result of swelling in the brain. In some areas of the world without widespread access to medical care, up to 5% of children die of the measles."

    I suppose a lot depends on what level of medical care you have available.
