In the middle of a downpour these people would believe they no longer needed their umbrella because they havent gotten wet recently.
We just had a downpour (COVID-19) and many of them were trying to blame it on umbrellas.
There would he fewer weather reports if we stopped looking up
Great metaphor.
Yes and then they get drenched and track it all over the house causing others to slip and get hurt.
…and then blame the unused umbrellas.
I’m pretty sure they blame the others for not being more careful and that they if only they slipped and fell more often it wouldn’t hurt so much.
We’ve suppressed the natural selection too hard
I’d be so fine with nature taking it’s course if they didn’t insist on making it everyone else problem too one way or another.
My father’s parents were told he’d die of polio in the hospital that night. He recovered. The vax was new when my mother got it. I exist because of vaccines and dumb luck. I hate them, every shithead antivax fuckwad for harming humanity.
My grandmother got polio as an adult and suffered from post-polio syndrome. She lived to a ripe old age (mid 90’s), but had a significantly reduced quality of life.

So much for modern education
So much for modern memes
If you want better memes, be the change you want to see and post some
My newborn is getting all their vax in 2 weeks, had to do an explanation for PTO so I’d be there for them. The first thing after I sent the request to my boss was, “have you looked into all the vaccines and how they affect them”. I just don’t understand why these proven vaccines are always in question
It’s because these ‘so called experts’ are liars, sometimes. We thought Aristotle was right, until we found out he was wrong and a total removed. We thought the same of Galileo and Newton until they were proven liars and total removed. So how do we know these vaccine scientists aren’t liars and total removed. /S
What is frustrating is that these people will gobble up any bullshit that a snake oil vendor post on Facebook and they reject modern medicine until they need it. Bunch of hypocrite idiots.
its the mark of the beast man, its inverts your heaven particles to hell particles making you an unwitting agent of Satan /s
Invent time travel so we can make all the antivaxxers live in Europe during the black plague
Honestly it got pretty visible during the height of the covid pandemic: https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-health-68c9762a4420094d300f9cbada0186f8
Not sure how much worse you could make it.
As someone who wants to get their child vaccinated but their pediatrician is having trouble getting in the vaccines, is there another option in the US? Every local pharmacy only has certain COVID/flu shots and nothing that would work for an infant
That seems very strange if it goes on too long. I’d suggest calling another pediatricians office.
Sounds like doctors, clinics, hospitals, and many pharmacies + some schools.
If you’re having difficulties, your state’s department of health is responsible for the VFC program CDC.gov/…/vfcWTF! What is going on?
What’s the pediatrician attribute the shortage to? Tell me it was just somebody in their office forgetting to re-order somehow…
More or less the same ppl who share “i fucking love science” fb posts.
My GF and I were talking about vaccines and COVID, mainly doubts about them. We both got the vaccine pretty quick. A lot of the talk was about how a healthy skepticism of the profit driven US healthcare system leaves room for doubt. It’s not like the vaccine made us any less sick or prevented us from catching it, or transmitting it. So we were asking ourselves what was the point?
Ultimately we landed at a pretty logical conclusion which is that the widespread vaccine seemed to ultimately drop the total COVID rate down and we seem to catch some variant of it similar to the flu once a year now. My sister works in healthcare and she usually knows when COVID is making the rounds. I don’t find myself leaning antivaxx. I am skeptical of the Trump and Biden administrations both though in the USA. It’s all too odd how willing people are to put their faith into the vaccine with literally zero doubts.
It’s not odd at all that people are willing to take the vaccines. Hundreds of doctors and scientists have been involved in the process of determining how viruses work, how the body fights them how we can use that to improve the bodies response and then how to safely package that for delivery to every person in the country.
There is no blind faith here except for that of doubters, just literal thousands of hours of dedication and science.
So you’re telling me that a vaccine for a sickness with basically 1 year R&D to production turnaround time doesn’t cause you to think twice, when a regular prescription can have side effects and need to be changed?
Think of any experience you’ve had with anti depressants or reoccurring drug as a prescription: it’s frequent that people have these changed out because of the adverse side effects or lack of effectiveness. The joke used to be that a commercial for medication would quickly read out side effects on TV for 20 seconds straight.
What I’m saying is the complete lack of any critical thinking before taking the vaccine is disturbing.
No because it came off of over a decade of research, the mRNA vaccine delivery had been in development for years, COVID is also a type of virus related to other viruses they had developed or were developing vaccines for.
This was not some weekend project dumped out with no thought.
But the vaccines literally have zero to do with the US administration. Why would the president inform your medical decision making process? With the exception of J&J (which I know nothing of), they were developed and manufactured outside the US.
In Australia people also have issues. They are calling it vaccine fatigue here, where people aren’t getting their boosters and also aren’t getting their flu shots. People are getting tired of vaccines. I admit I’m behind on mine. I had my 4th shot last April, and you are meant to have a booster every 6 months. So far I’ve had 2x Pfizer, 1x Novavax/Nuvaxovid and 1x Moderna. I’ve also had covid 3 times. Every shot (except Novavax surprisingly) makes me have minimum 2 days off in bed/on the couch with symptoms and I find myself putting it off.
That is a ridiculous amount of work and jabs. Do you find that there is near to no sickness then? In the USA I find that COVID is seasonal for everyone here no matter how many vaccines you’re getting. In other words, I’m curious do you find it makes a difference keeping up with it?
As for politics - in the USA the structure of what decisions below the president get made can sometimes change during a term because Democrats and Republicans basically play musical chairs when the opposite party is president. So it might be a democratic figurehead for a president at the top but speaker of the house is Republican and maybe the justices are Republican in decision making. Trump appointed new justices during his time that made a lasting impact with abortions during Biden’s presidency for example. More relevant to this conversation and topic they both had different stances on vaccines relative to their core voters. Trump appeared skeptical at times of Dr. Fauci who was chief medical advisor to the USA.

The meme is flexible. Your attitude is not
“the 20-year streak of measles being eliminated in the us” is the road.
You are wrong, it would be the point of impact according to your method of marking. Also the streak itself is not signified by the road but the people alive already in the bus, again according to your logic. As The Quuuuuill mentioned, “The meme is flexible. Your attitude is not”
