I’ll say it again so that it will sink into a few...

Before the MMR vaccine in the 60s children were intentionally exposed to those diseases in addition to Chicken Pox.

Combined, those diseases took about 500-700 people per year in the US.

The 2016-1017 Flu took 80,000 lives in the US.

Yet the nanny-staters insist everyone...everyone...must receive the MMR vaccine to prevent a general pandemic.

Because most of them are either stupid, or completely ignorant of the facts.

The rest have a vested interest.

Pregnant women who got measles or rubella (I can not remember which) often had babies with related problems, such as deafness, I have been told.

Also consider the vaccine schedule has increased greatly since we were kids, and our parents were kids. Lot more crap pumped into small bodies in a much shorter timespan.
