    What do you mean? Worth to whom?

    Also, these people aren’t just harming themselves; they’re harming everyone around them. A vaccine isn’t like a seat belt. It doesn’t just protect you. It also protects the people around you. Additionally, by having a weaker immune system, these people are making their bodies breeding grounds for viruses which can mutate into new forms.

      Well exactly.

      I’m not sure why my comment has gone from being agreed with, to being controversial.

      Anti-vaxers can fuck off and die, but preferably somewhere else, so as not to compromise anyone else’s safety.

      I feel sorry for their kids and others that they hold hostage to their stupid views.
