They are not wicked. They have just been unfortunately scared and misinformed
by bad sources. They were left and now majorly right. Makes no difference.
There are no legitimate studies to link MMR with autism; therefore are no valid reasons.
Only hope is to get the right info out there and persuade. Don’t “do your own research”.
Don’t believe in conspiracy crap from internet bloggers selling you hydroxychloroquine
or snake oil.
Not bad if that’s the 1 word you zeroed in on in that lengthy post, today they aren’t wicked.
Have you found out which subgroup those 3 deaths in 2025 were part of? How about which of the subgroups made up of the majority of those 2000 total cases? You’re putting a lot of effort to proselytize to the anti-vaxxers and not focusing much on the other 2 subgroups. Maybe the undocumented, unvaccinated, and the skeptical Black community are reading the same crap you describe. I doubt that using your tactics, you’re getting many people to change their crap ways.
And you ?
Twice you’ve said you’re done with this thread, but here you are again.
What tactics do you employ to inform ?
Seriously, you think year 2000 measles is relevant at this point ?
And AI tells us this about individual cases. We can’t dig more into that.
Official public health tracking data for the 20th-century high of measles cases in the U.S. does not break down total national case counts by race or ethnicity. Instead, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) track cases primarily by vaccination status, age, and geography rather than racial demographics. [1, 2]
vast majority of 2026 cases (93%) are in individuals who are unvaccinated or whose vaccination status is unknown.
From the geography, it’s pretty clear it’s not immigrants.
And I’m still interested in your explanation of the problem with the Yao graph.
I literally gave you a Reductio ad absurdum proof of why it’s wrong.
Can’t go any further logically on that one.
I am done, if you and anyone else decide to quit tagging me, I could disappear. Take the challenge, quit quoting me when I’m responding to someone else. See if you can do it.
The total number of cases, NOT the year 2000. From your initial post, you provided a link with the number of cases.
Cumulative measles case counts
More than 2,000 cases have been confirmed this year, outpacing last year’s record measles case growth.
Wow! 
For what it is worth dept.
Went to Elementary school in the 1950’s.
Virtually everyone got the measles. Yep, I did.
No one died. After it swept through our Community it disappeared. Suppose we all had herd immunity. It never again appeared amongst our 800 or so classmates who were the Baby Boomers generation in my hometown.
As an adult have not had measles. Nor my wife. We had no vaccinations.
~500 people died a year in the 1950s from measles, mostly children.
You bring logic and facts…Sorry buddy you are wrong.
So this anecdote is basically a textbook case of survivor bias. This happened but no one had any adverse effects therefore there must be no adverse effects.
It wouldn’t be any different than saying, “I grew up driving with no seat belts and nothing bad happened therefore no one needs seat belts.”
Real empirical data shows that it’s still a serious virus that can really mess folks up even if it doesn’t kill them.

What’s lost in some of what I consider silly rabbit holes is the fact that no matter where the damn measles come from, they should not take hold here in America, but for anti-vaxxers who for whatever reason, don’t do what the rest of society is doing as part of the social contract. Because. Freedom? To get measles?
So yes, it’s the anti-vaxxers fault. No question. On both the left and right.
Bingo.
I happen to think that 800 children is a good sample size.
But can expand on that.
Have had 2 wives. One from Greater Houston and one from Greater Dallas.
Both had my experience, but with much larger class sizes. All Baby Boomers.
None died that we three ever heard of. Zero.
Now we are up to a sample size in the thousands. Zero out of thousands.
My parents and Grandparents had measles. They didn’t die. They never talked about anyone dying when they were children.
This alarm is fake. Herd Immunity takes care of it. And obviously the Measles virus was brought here via Immigration. Obviously. As we see more and more deport, the incidence of measles will decline.
500 deaths a year, mostly being children, isn’t fake. That’s ~5k deaths over that decade.
And it makes sense that you don’t know anyone that died. That doesn’t mean it didn’t happen to MANY families. Because something didn’t happen to you or people you know doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
Not to mention death isn’t the only consequence, it’s just the worst.
Thank goodness we have a vaccine to avoid those deaths and severe consequences now.
And what you point to as obvious hasn’t been proven out. In fact, it’s largely been proven to not be the case. Plenty of studies linked to in this thread. Kinda funny that we are deporting so many yet measles start spiking after that. Makes no sense if this is all about immigration.
Survival of the fittest, we’re hurting the human gene pool caring about the weak
Anti-Vaxxers ALL give me a pain.
This is the correct thinking. Doesn’t matter if you’re a crunchy hippie anti-vaxxer, religious anti-vaxxer, Instagram grifter anti-vaxxer.
Doesn’t matter they all suck and should be shunned
2000 cases of measles? Wow, a frickin epidemic!
Of course, 805,000 heart attacks annually. 600,000 are new and 200,000 are repeat.
Where’s my heart attack vaccine?
Yeah we call that
Epidemics like this aren’t going to start quickly. It’s the trend that’s worrisome.
And we have the cure for it, that we’ve previously tested and confirmed. The impact to kids is the worst part of it.
