One of my biggest peeves is seeing an obviously newborn infant being drug around Walmart or some restaurant by its stupid mom. Not only is that newborn NOT vaccinated against anything it might reasonably be exposed to (HepB at birth is the only vax prior to the 2m pedi visit), the downside of that child GETTING one of those diseases is WAY higher than a 3yr old. Or even a 6m old.
Stupid stupid mothers.
And throwing them in daycare at 6w has to be another dumb idea. Still haven’t had any more vaccines than they had after the 1d HepB vax. Prior to antibiotics no sane mother would have had her newborn infant around hordes of other germ laden kids including toddlers and pre-schoolers. Doing so would have been a deathwish for the kiddo.
EXACTLY!! People are exposing their babies to these illnesses and then blaming their infection on other people. No personal responsibility whatsoever and then our children (well, children of most people anyway who don’t do their own research into the pros and cons of vaccines) all pay the price with asthma, allergies, autism (admitted to on the CDC website), etc.
