Your opinion is backed by Adam Schiff, the WHO, FB, Google, Twitter and big government. You have some elite buddies.

You may want to look at some of your anti-vax buddies.

Do you need "anecdotal" defined for you? This is not indicative of parents who question vaccines, the ingredients and the schedule.

The Democrat press knows exactly what they are doing and you're buying into it.

Quick Google search on tetanus developing despite vaccination. Vaccination is not a ‘sure thing’, but it seems it is preventative in most cases & also leads to milder tetanus if it does develop. Postoperative tetanus has been reported following both elective and emergency surgical procedures, particularly those involving disruption of the lower gastrointestinal tract. About 70% of all cases diagnosed in the United States now occur in adults over the age of 50 years.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Because of the success of widespread vaccination, tetanus rarely occurs in developed countries such as the United States. Vaccination, however, is not entirely protective even if patients develop an adequate antibody response. We discuss a case of generalized tetanus in an individual with both a history of prior vaccination and a measurable level of anti-tetanus antibodies at the time of presentation. We speculate that the patient’s preexisting antibodies may have moderated his course of illness.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Tetanus is an often severe and fatal disease that is difficult to diagnose. Prevention is of the utmost importance because the vast majority of cases occur in patients who have not had primary vaccination. Our case supports previous reports that tetanus can develop in patients with ”protective” antitoxin levels.

They can't compare with your anti-freedom socialist crew.

I see.

If the anti-vaxxer's irresponsible behavior results in horrible abuse of a child then they weren't the right kind of anti-vaxxers.

No true Scotsman doesn't like haggis.

Why don’t you try learning some facts.

First if you give a tetanus vaccine at the time of an injury it takes WEEKS to work. Thats how vaccines work. And that will work if you have been PREVIOUSLY VACCINATED.

For people who have NEVER BEEN vaccinated, you also have to give them Tetanus Immune Globulin, as well as then starting the vaccine.

Or we can just get immunized every 10 years and not have to worry about it.
Which has worked for about the last 75 years.

Why are illegals bringing disease?

With thinking cap? Are you ready?

Southern America has a poor railroad system, poor agriculture, poor sanitation, poor water cleaning, poor due process, poor liberty, poor Constitution, poor communication, poor gun rights, poor free speech ...

Southern illegals have a poor IQ of 70,
they put dirty toilet paper on the ground
and the biggest reason mass migration brings disease is that

THEY SH*T WHERE THEY EAT.

Absorb all that with your hard thinking.

Civilization has many disease preventing factors.

If you ever talk to these illegals, they are broadly stupid ignorant which is the product of their societal upbringing.

It takes 3 to 21 days for a tetanus infection to incubate. Tetanus immune globulin works immediately.

Its a psycho liberal mom and earth muffin movement. Moms who do this are in league with the Democrats. This case is an Oregon mom.

Why are illegal aliens showing up filled with diseases that were eradicated decades ago here

Of course you are being facetious with that rhetorical question.

It begins with corrupt societies where public health takes a back seat to violent graft and socialistic strangling of business investment coupled with local superstitions, carries through with Democrat/Republican encouragement of mass immigration without health screening, and ends up with old diseases popping back up in the good ole U S of A.

So Democrats are all anti-vaxxers AND pushing vaccines?

Actually, being a parent means that you question what is being done to your child. Do they need vaccines? Which ones? What are in them? Are they being given too soon? Too many?

Those are not crazy questions.

LOL. One other thing. Hypertet comes from the plasma of people who HAVE BEEN IMMUNIZED for tetanus. So you you are getting second hand antibodies. Or you could be vaccinated and MAKE YOUR OWN.

So were you asking to see if I knew? :-)

I question all the vaccines and their ingredients however, when one of my kids stepped on a board in the dark with a rusty nail he went to the ER. His last tetanus was a DPT when he was 6 and he was now 15 so off we went.

Not just tetanus. Illegals bring in a list of diseases that are long dead here, including polio. It’s because they come from the third world and don’t get the vaccinations we do.

Anti-vaxers would have America return to the 1950s medically.

“Quick Google search on tetanus”

Google? Google is FAKE NEWS.

Typical Vaxer dumbed down by Google.

Actually, the Democrat campaign against what you call “anti-vaxxers” is a liberal campaign to silence people questioning big pharma and to redirect attention away from where the diseases are coming from, illegals. Big Pharma has deep pockets at election time and you protect your donors, even making it so they can’t be sued.

Laughable. So you think those diseases left America because of our infrastructure and good water.

Americans can and have visited that very environment in Mexico, Central and South America, Calcutta, Africa and guess what sport? They don’t catch polio, measles, tuberculosis, etc.

Mexicans and Central Americans have those diseases because they don’t get vaccinated. Simple as that.
