I've been following articles covering the WA outbreak and I can't count the 'they are just red spots!' comments there are so. One person rolled out the Argument From Brady Bunch (where they say getting the measles is awesome). It is horrific.

Antivaxxer: It's benign. Also Antivaxxer: Vaccines are dangerous because shedding.

I hadn't seen that one before other than the claims of "natural immunity" from the measles being supposedly superior to vaccines. Of course, Sayer Ji got it exactly backward.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2015/05/15/the-benefits-of-the-measles-vaccine-go-beyond-measles/ …

The anti-vaxxers I know (all evangelicals) cling to the belief that vaccines cause autism. They are extremely anti-science

Wasn’t there an episode of MASH where there was a “childhood” disease going around the camp that people were genuinely concerned about? It was measles or mumps, I think.

It's amazing. Using a heavily censored 70s sitcom (where's the toilet in that house? Too scandalous! What happened to Carol's first husband? Divorce was a dirty word) to somehow suggest that a disease is benign just shows how far away fromm reality they are.
