This is what happens when you don’t vaccinate.
You can have mine 💉 to make you feel safer. Poor baby’s.
To think that some people still don't know is crazy. 28 fools meet on censortube.
@@brensway Not a single person is going to miss you when you're 6 feet under.
Bathe daily, wash hands with soap and water, wash clothes to prevent the spread of diseases.
@@void9837All that is good practice and all but it doesn’t prevent air droplet contamination.
My mom came down with the measles in the 70’s. She literally got sick with it right before all the other kids in her school were getting the vaccine, which had just come out. As a result of the measles, she developed a low platelet count (immune thrombocytopenia purpura) and had to be hospitalized. She also has permanent vision loss from it. My mom had no underlying conditions. You do not want to contract this illness. It is not worth taking the chance.
Ok, that was in the 50's ...
Vision loss due to measles DOES NOT HAPPEN in America in 2024, try again
Antivaxxers should read some 17th century biographies where people had 15 kids in the hopes that 2 of them would reach adulthood.
Thousands of years ago in Leviticus 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 describe bathing, washing clothes and washing hands with soap to prevent the spread of diseases. It also describes quarantine procedures.
@@void9837lmao, you’re one of those god people, and think you’re imaginary sky daddy will save you
@@void9837 Take that to an orthodox jewish community and find out if they also still vaccinate because they are very pro science . in addition to all their laws of cleanliness they still vaccinate. Because cleanliness laws alone don't prevent the spread of disease.
I was vaccine skeptical for 10 years actually didn't vaccinate 2 of my 3 children at one point
. after a long conversation with a friend who grew up in West Africa I realized what a privileged position I was in where I didn't have to actually see a polio or a measles outbreak. I didn't have to witness the death and desperation. My friend from West Africa is a physician said it is quite a sight to see mothers desperately lined up hoping to get their child a vaccination. even the witch doctors roll up their sleeve to receive a vaccination when their incantations and potions have no effect on the outbreak.
Exactly. Measles was eradicated too. So ridiculous
Hows this no-vaxxing going for you? Y'all are really going to hate if subacute sclerosing panencephalitis starts popping up here in about 10 years...
Poor kids! If only their parents had the option of a shot that has over a 1/2 century of success in preventing the disease.
Maybe one day science will find a solution!
In Florida........Shocking
Intellectual central. 😅😅
This is the crap we have to put up with when parents refuse to inoculate their children. 💙☮️🙏🇺🇸🤪
Yes but only their kids have to put up with the crap...
If only there was a medicine that could have helped prevent this!
Vaccines will do
😂 for sure!
Now called the DeSantis Flu
Typhoid Mary stand aside!
This is what Deathsantis does when he says no vaccines.
Well let the parents that don’t vaccinate their children. Thought and prayers .
Yep, that'll work. 😊
Let desantis and his surgeon general visit the schools
And play nurse for the I'll!
HA! Hahahahahahahaha 😂
Seriously folks, vaccinate your kids, this is beyond stupid and sad.
Yup. So unnecessary
This is what vaccines r for
I go to the high school near this school and I saw the all of the news crews this morning. crazy
Anti-Vaxers 😂😂😂
What will it take for them to wake up? 🤔
Illegals
You don't get off MSM much do you?
@@larryneville1811: Neither do you, your comments are nonstop 24/7, lol.
To coin an Alice cooper song; "Dead babies"!
@@aaronthenorm5400: How can you “coin” an Alice Cooper song? Perhaps you meant ‘quote’?
Omg what a tragedy! Scandalous
97%? Somebodies lying?
Yeah, that school admin is actually pretty sneaky about the numbers--notice at 1:00 that 97% number he provides is for **a single dose or more** of measles vaccine.
But the measles vaccine is a two-dose vaccine, meaning the actual **effective** coverage at the school is well below 97%, probably around 92-93%. That's below where they need to be to get herd immunity.
Dr. Lapado should be an embarrassment toHarvard Medical School. Political ambitions don’t mix with good science and he’s accountable for those kids who will die of measles pneumonia or recover with neurological impairment.
I’m so glad I saw this. I’m 19 and I’m already getting wrinkles under my eyes 😅
1:50 Watch my sister walk by lol
The vaccine can wear off too. I’m a 51 year old woman and I just got a booster because my blood tested negative for measles antibodies even though I was fully vaccinated as a child.
Often you need boosters in hs or later. I think it's min 2 shots for measles.
Not mark btw.
Selfish parents sending their kids to school anyway despite their child not feeling well. School is not free daycare it was never designed to be that way I get that parents have to work but they shouldn’t be sending their kid to school just because they didn’t want to stay home with their kid or pay for a babysitter.
Is Meatball vaccinated?
😊😮😅😂😂😂😂
Don't they require kids to be vaccinated in Florida?
Are you kidding? Under Desantis, they don't require anything of the sort.
@@ingothitrust5248 I'm not from there so I didn't know. I just thought when kids go to school they had to be vaccinated. Especially when it comes to vaccines that have been around for years and years and years.
Technically they probably are required.
But there's ways around these things that aren't because your kid has a medical reason they can't be vaccinated.
they’re more likely to be banned than required over there, no?
@@jenniferhansen3622 The Bible Thumpers have religious exemption. 🤮
If only we had a vaccine to stop measles, wouldn’t that be nice?
Freedom at its finest
You mean ignorance and fear!
Change the name to the DeSantis Rash.
florida..hmm sounds about right
Florida doing a Florida
Stay safe
sounds about florida
Aren’t we supposed to be vaccinated against this?
Once upon a time; back when Democratic law makers were plentiful!
This is what happens when you have a open border .
Keep up that anti-vax propaganda
Censorship is the tool used when a lie loses power.
zombies in coming
Only in the unvaccinated though.
My dad had the German measles and the 3 day measles when he was a kid. He’s 85 years old now. 🎉
I had both when I was a kid to an doin fine
Well, no one said everyone dies from it. People live through horrible illness all the time. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try and prevent something that is preventable, especially something that tends to sterilize male children. That's like saying every smoker will die because of it. It's just not true that doesn't mean smoking is good for you.
I had measles when I was a kid and recovered in a week. Now my immune system is super strong. Natural immunity is the best.
Cool. My mom had the measles in the 70’s’s and was hospitalized with low platelet count as a result of it. Oh, and she also has permanent vision loss from it. She had no underlying conditions.
@@anastaciafang270 congrats…not everyone survives it, or comes out of it ok
Fun fact: Americans are required to get the mmr vaccine to enroll in public school
And any hospital. Whether you work in Caffateria or work as a surgeon, you have to be fully vaccinated against anything, including annual flu vaccine.
Vitamins calcium, A, C, and E may help.
Vegetable broth - carrots celery onion garlic cabbage etc
Eyes may be sensitive to lights - ie TV / Computer
Just the beginning....we have millions immigrants here now...
What's your point? Vaccinate your kids, and you have no worries.
ITS DUE TO IMMIGRANTS NOT VACCINATED AND COMING HERE
Immigrants are examined and put in temporary quarantine before entering the population. Vaccines did not replace bathing, washing clothes and washing hands with soap and water to prevent the spread of diseases. The nurses told me to take an Ibuprophen or Tylenol 15 minutes before getting the vaccine to minimize the symptoms.
No it's literally conservative white families. There's a whole movement of them not vaccinating their kids
Could you post the proof doctor by the way you get medical degree from you tube google or trump university?
Florida literally forced a tough immigration law last year. Literally Florida farms are becoming ghost towns. Because they can’t exploit undocumented migrants and hire migrants for cheap anymore. The migrants are not going to Florida it’s all New York and California. This smells of Americans not taking accountability and not knowing their history. American exceptionalism at its finest
No. This is xenophobic
Vaccination is Good
God bless President TRUMP
God bless Florida
FJB...FJB
TRUMP 2024....TRUMP 2024
So measles outbreaks are a blessing from your god?
There is no President Trump.
