    Some people seem to think anti-vaxxers are harmless eccentrics who should be indulged by a broad-minded society. In fact, they kill kids.

        @BernardKeane Check the rates of death of measles, pertussis, in Australia if you don't believe me.

        @SydWalker I'm talking about measles, pertussis specifically as more virulent and the ones involved in debate over herd immunity threshold..

        @SnowyPanthera Thx a lot! I'll check out these refs. Other than the (very few) deaths, is there evidence of long-term damage from pertussis?

        @BernardKeane I am of the opinion that anti-vaxxers should all be dumped on an island somewhere so their nonsense can't hurt others.

        The crude binary style of @BernardKeane's thought is implicit in his vulgar comment. Intelligent consideration of this issue has more nuance

        @BernardKeane Children are far more at threat by domestic violence, motor vehicle collisions etc.

        @BernardKeane Statistically speaking, children are not at threat by anti-vax in Aus. Vaccination rates remain high, deaths almost unheard of
