Belesarius Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 http://www.npr.org/blogs/goatsandsoda/2015/05/07/404963436/scientists-crack-a-50-year-old-mystery-about-the-measles-vaccine?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=news Pretty cool on a couple of levels. The whole Measles causing immune system 'memory loss' is very interesting. One more thing the anti vaxxers have to answer for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priory_of_Sion Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Anti-vaxxers answer for nothing, this is all part of the conspiracy to hide the truth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaustianQ Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 I unironically think vaccinations should be mandatory, I could give a fuck less what the nuts think. Either that or they were a sign that says "Biohazard!" everywhere they go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xthetenth Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Unless you've got a serious medical reason, pretty much. Your rights stop where other peoples' begin, and not dying is a bit higher up the chain than not having to deal with paranoia induced cognitive dissonance.

Collimatrix Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I'm seeing some speculation now that measles played a larger role in the epidemics after the European discovery of the New World than previously thought. Measles weakened the victims' immune systems, and then smallpox polished them off kind of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
