I DON'T KNOW WHY PEOPLE THINK WE NEED VACCINES

Wearing asafoedita in a bag around the neck keeps measles at bay. It's a sure preventative.

If you think you need extra protection, sip some water from a holy well while walking widdershins around it and reciting the Lord's prayer backwards.

Besides, getting measles isn't the worst thing that can happen to a child. Only 1 to 3 in 1,000 die of measles. And those who die must not have been meant to live; they lacked natural strength and were not fed and exercised properly.

For children who survive measles, the worst that can happen is that they go blind — but at least, they'll have their lives, even if they can no longer see.

Every dark cloud has a silver lining, after all. Look on the sunny side of life.

And none of these hazards compare with the gruesome damage any vaccination does.

People in the pre-modern world practicing "primitive" medicine had better instincts about all of this than we science-addled folks today have, right?

@wdlindsy Vitamin A is a problem with measles if you're deficient -- which really isn't an issue in North Americans because it's in so many of our foods. Taking extra when you're not deficient just won't impact .
Prevention is best and vaccines have a great track record for this. I mean who wants to get sick at all?

@AskPippa Yes, eminent reality-based good sense — and sadly, this is not where the people now heading the US government are.
