More Than Half the World Faces High Risk of Measles Outbreaks Following 'Big Gaps' in Immunizations, WHO Says
More than half the world will be at a "high or very high risk" of measles outbreaks by the end of 2024, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
Earlier this week, the global group warned that the viral infection — which is also known as rubeola — has been increasing across the globe due to a high amount of vaccinations missed amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
"What we are worried about is this year, 2024, we've got these big gaps in our immunization programs, and if we don't fill them really quickly with the vaccine, measles will just jump into that gap," Natasha Crowcroft, a Senior Technical Adviser on Measles and Rubella with the WHO, said during a press briefing in Geneva.
"We can see, from data that's produced with WHO data by the CDC, that more than half of all the countries in the world are going to be at high or very high risk of outbreaks by the end of this year," she added.
Thanks, antivax morons
And if you are an antivax moron: fuck you 🖕
As an autistic person that's a double fuck you from me
As an ADHD person, what was it we were talking about again?
If only telling morons not to be morons was the solution to morons being morons.
Being confrontational will only alienate them from your position and be counterproductive for everyone. Better to just share info that is simple and friendly enough; my favorite is this video: Kurzgesagt: The Side Effects of Vaccines - How High is the Risk?
They don't care.
If they cared about the truth, we wouldn't be in this situation in the first place.
Fuck them. They are literally killing people with their fucking stupidity. I didn't mind if they killed themselves by not reading labels and drinking bleach or whatever, but now they are putting everyone at risk from their willfull ignorance and stupidity.
Again, from the bottom of my heart: fuck these knuckle dragging truth denying idiots who don't deserve any time, effort, patience or sympathy. Fuck. Them.
"Bullshit. Lies! That guy's sister heard from her hair stylist's cousin that he read an article on Facebook that they implant Alien Neonazi microchips with every vaccine that make you gay and dumb!"
Those people are lost to science, let's face it.
This only works if they are rational actors. They are not. The issue is they have forgotten the pain of the silent generation, where of families of 8 kids, only 3 would survive to become adults.
What they need is trauma, lots of it. Until then, ridicule and humor is the best we can do.

Isn't fun being downvoted for trying to be rational, by people claiming to be rational.
"Responding with the same actions is detrimental and only accelerates the ever increasing division that drives all this. It's best to respond with logic and a calmness to try close that division, at least on one side."
Everyone here, "FUCK YOU!!! They don't listen so fucking pound it into them, that always works!!!"
