I promise you, anti-vax sentiments are alive and well in many countries. I'm from the UK, the birth place of Andrew Wakefield and in some areas, rates of uptake of the MMR vaccine is as low as 60% and the National average for England currently sits at 88%, down from 93% 10 years ago.

Let's not forget anti autism bigotry here, that's how it all got started

Well, not quite. It got started from genuine concern among actual parents who love and care for their children who were unfortunately manipulated by bad actors using incorrect and fabricated evidence to make money out of them.
