They are still going on about the vaccine??

I miss the days when antivaxxers were just a source of amusement, like flat earthers. Now they seem to be everywhere and it's just sad.

It was never amusing. Earlier it was "only" kids dying of the measles because their dumbass parents were antivaxxers. With COVID-19, it started affecting adults so that's why they get more attention. The public seems to be better able to tolerate children dying of preventable shit than adults.

It was way less children than Covid has killed.

And it wasn't like nobody cared, those parents had to go out of their way to not vaccinate their children.
