Immunizations are important

I just found out that two moms whom I used to hang out with do not vaccinate their babies. Unless there is a legitimate medical reason not to vaccinate your child e.g. allergy to the immunizations or immunocompromised, then you need to vaccinate your children. The disinformation regarding vaccines is harmful and frankly fucking stupid. Furthermore “IF” vaccines actually did cause autism, you’d really rather your child die of a preventable disease than get autism?! If the unvaccinated children were the only ones getting sick and dying of harmful preventable diseases, then I could not care less. But this selfish decision impacts the rest of our children too! Do your research, and stop being a dumbass! I have a graduate degree in public health and am so tired of watching parents put their children in harms way like this. It should be considered child abuse not to vaccinate your child unless there is a medical reason. I’ve tried and tried to gently communicate the importance of immunizations to so many parents. I’m sick of it. We literally have information at our fingertips
