There you have it folks, “average anti-vaxxer” > medical field.

I think the real question that needs answering here is why 'Lisa' would let her cat shoot her up.
19
I think she's more of a Karen. The cat probably scratched her pretty good and she didn't vaccinate so now she has Tetanus ,and the spasms made her write this.
Seriously now, this looks like r/ihadastroke material.

It shows her name at the top so she is definitely a Lisa

I honestly wonder why people deny herd immunity is a thing. Do they believe diseases spontaneously generate inside of your body even if no one you've interacted with is infected?
13
After spending two years in an anti-vax Facebook let me try to help you out. Generally, those who claim it is fake point out two things:
-
the vast majority of adults are not up to date on vaccines so the needed percentage of 80-90% coverage isn’t possible.
-
the concept of herd immunity came about after looking at natural immunity, not vaccine caused immunity. They claim that these are two different things.
-
others just have the “I won’t light my kid on fire to keep yours warm” mentality.
Again, not saying I buy any of it. Just trying to introduce you to their argument.
17
My follow up would then be how the hell natural immunity and vaccine-caused immunity are different when they both use the same mechanism to be established and only the origin of the microbes is different.
2
That is like the whole thing about “natural vs artificial”
“We have two molecules, both are the same but one is from a banana and the other was made in a lab, but they are both the same thing, so how is one better than the other?”
3
This is the point where anti-vaxxers usually bring up “ingestion v. Injection”. Naturally attaining something is different than purposefully injecting it to them. In their mind, injection skips the bodies naturally filtering process. This then usually leads them to bringing up how vaccines lead to “toxins” building up in your body.

Anti-Vaxxers don't think. We are not asking you to light your kid on fire, we are trying to cover them in fire retardent so they don't cath on fire from already on fire kids.

I hardly hear them adding ADHD into their argument, but today I learned that it's not genetics that gave me ADHD, it was VACCINES.

After two years in an anti-vax Facebook group I can tell you they believe vaccines are pretty much the cause of every medical ailment. Cancer, ADD, Alzheimer’s, etc.

Excuse me, WHAT THE FUCK?!!?? by this mentality she'd gotten all the availible shots 10 times to get idiotism like that
5
If you asked an antivaxxer what an antibody is, I'm sure they'd answer "it's what big pharma is doing with vaccines, killing and sterilizing us."

Your cats smarter than someone who went through rigorous medical school, huh, well my cats clearly smarter than you if you believe shit like that
3
My cats tried to play with and eat a furry dingleberry that fell off my oldest cat last night, but that's probably just because they've all been vaccinated.

It's funny, everything you just said was wrong.

I didn’t say anything. Just sharing this beauty.

Oh, I was talking about Lisa, not you OP. Sorry that wasn't apparent!
Edit: I was trying to make a Star Wars reference

To respond to their claims point by point:
Prove it.
Prove it.
Prove it.
Prove it.
Prove it.
Prove it.

Counter claim by “average anti-vaxxer”
- I can’t prove it because the CDC, “big pharma”, and the NWO discredit every study/doctor that makes anti-vax claims. They then ramble on about Wakefield and cite some studies that support their claims
It is a very interesting mindset that is infested with conspiracy logic and anti-intellectualism. When pushed for proof, they often send you some links to various anti-vax websites, documentaries such as VAXXED, or doctors like Susan Humpries.
2
Oh, I know they have their own sea of bullshit resources that all incestuously cite each other. But at least then it shifts the paradigm to that of proving their sources.
“Alright; lets say the CDC is corrupt. Surely there’s evidence for that.”
Keep going far enough and, if there’s an ounce of reason left in them, they would hopefully realize their sources don’t stand up to scrutiny. I have to keep hoping that somehow, there’s a way to reach these people.

Vaccines have a higher mortality than any of the diseases they purport to provide temporary immunity for. Every single one.
I'm not saying that this is complete and utter bullshit, but I'm afraid I'm going to need to see a source for this.
2
Ive had eczema before its not that big of a deal

It's at this point that I'd make a joke about how this particular specimen mixed up prescription-grade stupid pills with the usual over the counter stuff, but she'd probably thinks it gives you AIDS and MRSA

Possible Vaccine Side effect: everything “bad” ever
🤨🧐

Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the anti-vaxxers on internet. So let's get to taking out their fragile yet stupid beliefs, one by one. normal anti-vaxx idiots. From what I can gather they huddle on the internet from their computer inside their home. they are not protected at all, so with the right diseases, we can punch through their useless immunity system, take these idiots out, and break their grip on the public opinion

Do they realise that most other countries have vaccines etc subsidised so the Drs dont get a cut for them?
Nah dude, #BIGPHARMA
Funnily enough, Bigpharma makes millions of dollars peddling snake oil to gullible people.
I suspect Bigpharma started the anti-vaxx movement. They make relatively little money on vaccinations, so they convinced people not to get vaccinated and sell them fake cures. /s
I was seriously kidding when I started this, but its a good plan assuming you have no morals.
BUT ‘MURICA IS THE ONLY COUNTRY
