“It's about protecting those around you, who cannot always protect themselves.”
Whenever I hear a parent rail against vaccines, it goes something like this: “Oh my goodness, I would never inject my baby with that POISON” or “I feed my kids oodles of Kale [substitute coconut oil, essential oils, probiotics, etc] so they can’t possibly get sick or die from [insert any vaccine-preventable diseases].”
When you make these arguments you are focused entirely on your child, or yourself.
You can bet your ass that I give them the flu shot each year, because the flu is a serious respiratory infection and while it may be “just a really nasty bug” for some people, for others it can kill.
