The WHO European Region is experiencing an alarming rise in measles cases. Over 30 000 measles cases were reported by 40 of the Region’s 53 Member States between January and October 2023. Compared to 941 cases reported in all of 2022, this represents a more than 30-fold rise. The rise in cases has accelerated in recent months, and this trend is expected to continue if urgent measures are not taken across the Region to prevent further spread.

    So at what point is this straight up child abuse? It’s at least negligence right?

    I’ve made my peace years ago with the fact that this problem is going to take care of itself.

      Except it’s not the fully immunised parents that are going to die out, it’s their children.

        Enough dead kids and the morons will learn their lesson while the most unteachable idiots will see their bloodline get thinned out. I’m old enough to remember the stories of my great-grandparents and what diphtheria has left them of their 10 children.
