I'm sorry for the kids that are punished for having stupid parents, but maybe a few public incidents of children dying from entirely preventable diseases is what it takes for other parents to finally stop mindlessly parroting every piece of anti-vax BS they read on Telegram and vaccinate their kids after all.

Though at this point it's evident that we as a species have well and truly failed either way.
