I wager native born Indians in India would say something similar if a bunch of white people (or just any large non-indian population) flooded into India and fundamentally changed society. Immigration can be disruptive. I know you want to call everything racist so you can get your CCP bucks though.

Get vaccines if you want them and don't get them if you don't want them is not the great solution you think it is

Vaccines aren't just about protecting people against diseases but also stopping the spread which is only possible with high numbers of people vaccinated. This is why we don't let unvaccinated children go to school even if the other kids are vaccinated.


If a vaccine works, then it doesn't matter if others get it. You will be safe from whatever the vaccine protects against whether someone else gets the vaccine or not.

Which is precisely why nobody young and healthy should ever get a flu or cold vaccine. Neither provide immunity, neither limit the spread.

And once again, for vaccines that DO work, such as the MMR vaccine, it's quite literally a basic requirement for US Citizens to even be able to attend public school.

The reason they never reveal the identities of those who catch and/or die from measles? 99.99% of the time, it's illegals who catch and/or die from them.

Once again, not all vaccines are vaccines. :)

If there's no data on the identities of those who catch and die from measles where do you get the idea that it's mostly illegals catching and dying from it?

There is data. It's simply not reported on.

Hence why the article you posted says nothing about the identities of those who caught it.

It's quite funny that vaccines bring in some $25 Billion a year in the US alone, and you're pretending like anyone is "Anti-Vax".

Do a quick straw poll in PaRD simply asking, "Who has gotten MMR vaccines" and from the American and Canadian respondants, it'll be 100%.

Meanwhile, INDIA experiences what, 20K+ cases of the measles and dozens of deaths every single year. Perhaps you should be pointing the finger at Indians for being anti-vax?

Not all vaccines are created equal. There's no reason for anyone to get smallpox, polio, or measles, the vaccines offer durable, virtually complete long term immunity. Vaccines aren't nearly as effective against the Flu, or as it turns out against Covid. Immunity isn't complete and the virus is too good at adapting. It really should be specifically for people who are have poor immune systems.
