World Health Organization says "Anti-Vaxxers are a threat."

[Byzconia]

You don't? I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make, but some people (many people) really are just irrational idiots who can't make intelligent decisions.

So, what you're saying, then, is that, while the education was *offered*, it was never actually *received*.

No, that's literally not what I said at all.

Just so y’all know there have been three newly reported cases of childhood measles in Atlanta. This isn’t good at all as most of the measles outbreaks have been in the northwest near Seattle.

We need to stop pissing around and crackdown hard

[LiberNovusAmericae]

Thinking vaccines cause autism is an idiotic way of thinking. I agree with the WHO here; anti-vaxxers are causing a problem.

Anti-Vaxxers are a massive health threat. This thread is just preaching to the choir. Time to institute mandatory vaccinations to protect the rest of us.

I never thought I'd agree with making it mandatory, but we might have to that with our current situation.

No tolerance for folk who encourage the spread of deadly diseases.

I have generally favored a religious exemption. But If too many people use said exemption I am afraid we must remove it.

Agreed. Religion is a ridiculous reason to deny something that has been scientifically proven to prevent disease anyway.

Wait, crackdown, what?

I was willing to allow it so long as the religious exemptions were few enough not to endanger herd immunity but this is getting crazy.

No, that's literally not what I said at all.

If someone sends you a package and you refuse to accept it, then you have not received said package.

[Ors Might]

Education does not typically share the same kind of physicality that a package has, however.

[Byzconia]

But, you did receive it. It literally arrived to your doorstep/mailbox. Receive and accept aren't synonyms.

the easiest way to cure anti-vaxx paranoia is to have the government arrest them and forcibly inject fluids into their bodies.

The eyeroll would seem to indicate you think someone has advocated this.

Many here advocate for mandatory vaccinations. The only way to actually enforce that is to forcibly vaccinate people who don't wanna be vaccinated.

Um, no. The way mandatory vaccinations actually work is that if your kid doesn't get vaccinated, they're not allowed to go to school. Conceivably, we could also start handing out fines as well.

[The Foxes Swamp]

Despite what Facebook likes to tell you, It's only like 2% of the population at worst

2% is all it takes to destroy herd immunity and give a death sentence to everyone too young or too sick to be vaccinated.

seriously the people that have never even had the chance of being vaccinated would be a larger percentage of the population than the anti vaxxers.

ah, so it's only mandatory for kids then.

[Auze]

I highly doubt that anti-vaxxers would be participating in the forums of an online nation-building game, even if it was made to promote a book of a dystopian overly-controlling government. Cool news, though- looking forward to increased initiatives to curb antivax influence.

Who knows this might be the first time NSG agrees on something without causing a debate though I may be wrong.

But I'm glad the people in this thread have common sense when it comes to vaccines being important to the entire human population.

I know this is old, but here is the most one sided poll I remember.

I would have gotten away with it too.

Although one could conceivably think of ways to make it obligatory for adults as well...

I Know what's Going on Anti-Vaxxers but there is an Fake Vaccination. In Philippines, There is an Event of Anti-Rabies Vaccine in an One Hospital in Pasig City and Another in Possibly Mutinlupa City had Reported using Fake Anti-Rabies Vaccines. It was being Creating another Rabies on Humans which it is From Contaminated Vaccine. and Even Another News from ABS-CBN. That could Parents turned into Anti-Vaxxers because of Fake Vaccines?

How do people fall for that? You would think WHO or the CDC would announce a rabies vaccine was created and not some random hospital.
