It's because of transgenders! And Antifa! And people kneeling at the Superb owl!
Anyway, it's all fake news. And the dems' fault. And something something Clinton.
Besides, I'd rather my kids die from 3rd world illnesses than have autism in my house.
(To those who can't detect sarcasm, consider this training material)
If it was only idiots who died from this kind of thing, it would be funny. Many innocent people will suffer and die, too. But somehow we're supposed to treat republicans like a legitimate political party and their members like reasonable people.
But but but my main goal in life is to make floridian lawmakers and lobbyists more powerful than anyone else so who cares about disease and stuff.
I have zero sympathy for the contents in the Florida Oblast. Zero!
Step one: Shoot foot with shotgun Step two: why does my foot need to be amputated??
step 3: crippling hospital bills
step 4: debtor's prison step 5: can never leave the state again because you owe rent to debtor's prison

Nobody even does from it anymore!
Did the (mostly) children getting whooping cough vote for it? Because if not that’s not really leopards eating faces. It’s just kids getting sick from stupid ass policies they had no say in.
It's leopards eating faces if their parents care that they have whooping cough. Which isn't a given.
Making kids dead again. Good old MAGA morons.
Republicans and social nedia have brought back old illnesses
Well it sure beats being gay, am i right Florida?!
*hears sirens approaching*
Uh oh. I forgot.
Glad to see Darwinian evolution playing out. The children of the stupid are dieing off. Hopefully this means the next generation won't buy into Brawndo being what plants crave
Good, let them die
The children who are going to suffer and die from this didn't ask for it, it was their parents who are themselves vaccinated.
Fake news! There have always been whooping cough! My cousin took it! And he is fine! Better than the risk of microchip 5G in the vaccines!
— people that asked for this (likely)
I keep quoting that one famous Iowan: Let them die.
I wonder what impact this has had / will have on the for-profit health care industry in the US.
They should pray harder.
Praying to nurgle got them into this.
Whoop whoop it's the year of Juggalo!
The ONLY way to Prevent this is to PRAY MORE! Also we DONT want to Prevent it because Whooping Cough SAVES the Children!
