    Whenever I see someone claiming not to be an antivaxxer, especially someone saying this, I can never resist asking: OK, so which *specific* vaccines are, in your opinion, “needed”? Which vaccines do you consider safe and effective enough to generally recommend?https://twitter.com/stacey_rudin/status/1344334697464279043 …

    You can decline a particular vaccine without becoming an “anti-vaxxer.” Some vaccines are needed, some are not, and this differs from person to person.

        I mean. If you’re not antivax, then there must be *at least* one vaccine that you consider safe and effective. So what is/are it/they?

        Apparently her family tree is resistant to polio or maybe it's rubella? How does one discover this fascinating "fact"? Via family hx or perhaps a personal diary kept by an ancestor? Why didn't I get this memo? Why didn't you? Baffling... /sarcasm

        I know an older vaccine denier who basically thinks all vaccines before 1990 are fine. MMR is fine, HPV and COVID aren't. Like he's some kind of vaccine hipster.

        And what virus are you willing to pass on to your loved ones? What illness are you willing to see them suffer and die from?

        Most are useful. I have skipped flu vaccine so-far (low risk) and don't see much point in chickenpox vaccine. That's about it. Question for anti-vaxxers. If you are bitten by a rabid dog, do you take the shots?

        Rabies turns you into a blithering idiot with endless erections and drooling, if you are a man. It is not a pretty way to die. That is why my brother took the the shots and the rabies immunoglobulin in his wounds, when he was attacked by a rabid cat.
