So far in 2019, theUSA has seen 1022 confirmed cases of measlesacross multiple states.
For reference, the total number of cases recorded in 2010 was 63.
You live in the public eye, Jessica.
Intentions dont mean anything.
Look, I get it medicine is scary.
But nobodys taking informed consent away from parents.
Nobody is denying access to some miracle cure because they didnt ask for it.
Nobody is excluding the parents from the decision-making process.
The goal of doctors is to help a patient be better, to live a full life.
That is and always has been the bottom line.
But it will kill those who are poor.
The parents whose medical insurance just doesnt cut it.
The adults whose unique medical conditions mean they are unprotected.
The elderly who couldnt save enough for retirement, let alone protracted hospital stays.
The anti-vaccine movement benefits no-one but the rich and powerful.
And what is it rooted in?
What started it all?
Treating people who are neurodivergent as something that needs to be eradicated.
These are the people youre getting in bed with, Jessica.
Are you sure you want to go there?
