    Funny how antivaccine activists dismiss the possibility of death due to measles (~1 in 1,000) as being of little or no consequence; yet, a one in a million chance of severe reactions to a vaccine is completely unacceptable to them.

        But, but vaccines aren't natural! // as well as low infant mortality rates, obviously.

        I know. But antivaxxers don’t want to accept that as fact.

        Because it’s not a fact. Do your homework. Start with VAERS https://vaers.hhs.gov/index.html

        In 1st world more like 1 in 10,000. Times the probability of actually getting measles in 1st place which is much smaller again. Compound probability of death by measles is less than death by measles jab. (Most recent 20 years of US Government stats bear this out).

        What I don’t get is, do Americans never want to go on holidays to places where the incidence is higher?
