These people should have their children taken away from them.

100% agree. CPS should be way more aggressive because it's neglect and abuse. I am so sick of seeing them treated with kid gloves.
The issue is where the kids go after you take them away. It's not like foster care is renowned for its nurturing environment. Would these kids actually be better off there?
It is way bigger than that, I agree. But these kids aren't even being educated, and it's really troubling.
This is a person that people with children taken advice from!
I'm not sure the 6 million people that died from Measles before we had the vaccine would agree "Measles is a positive illness".
"Prior to the introduction of measles vaccination in 1963, there were >100 million measles cases resulting in 6 million deaths worldwide, with 4 million cases and 450 deaths in the US annually." source
Not 6 million dead.
6 million dead each year.
We've had one 6 million yes.
Or all the people who lost their hearing or sight but survived.
Also even if you survive, it fucks up your immune system for several years after, preventing you from developing immunities and even erasing ones you already had.
Yeah but they didn’t have essential oils back then /s
Too much tech time and not enough picture books
In 2011/2012 Influenza caused death in 0.13% of cases according to the CDC.
According to the numbers in your quote, in 1963 Measles did cause death 6% of the time worldwide, but it only caused death 0.011% of the time in the U.S., less than Influenza in modern times.
I don't know why, but I felt like your numbers weren't compelling, and I felt like looking them up. I don't know what it means though. I'm sure there are other factors to be considered.
Instead of going to homeopaths for advice, why don't we grind up homeopaths and dilute them with water a couple dozen times? That's how it works, right?
10/10 best use of a homeopath.
I think compost would be better. What if they have a disease?
This is a brilliant idea - not just because it solves the problem of too many homeopaths but because of the way homeopathy 'works'.
Homeopathy is the idea that "like treats like" (the homeo is latin for "the same"). So typically the homeopath looks at the symptoms of the disease, finds some poison that causes the same symptoms, then dilutes the hell out of it.
In this case, what are the symptoms that homeopathy causes? Dumbness. So the ground up homeopath pills would be ideal for treating homeopath users and practitioners. And the Gwyneth Paltrow crowd. So many birds with one stone!
The bigger the body of water you dump them in, the more potent they become.
No! You'd make them more powerful!
I’m a homeopath…
That’s not how you spell “psychopath”.
No, it's an alternative spelling for moron.
They're trash
Anyone else feel like these kinds of things are the state sponsored bot farms at work? I mean how better to sow chaos than convince stupid parents that the measles are a good thing?
Doesn't need to be state sponsored, there are companies making good money from those legalized pseudoscientific scams, see Boiron and Weleda.
Ahh yes, Boiron, the company that doesn't tell their customer's their number 1 product is duck liver, because if they did that, they would have to explain they are only pretending it is duck liver.
Oh Flower you forgot to link to the rose water cure you're selling!
probably because links were dissabled because they did mention the Helios help lime
help lime
Typeo or weird fruit?
Those are the ones they put on the rims of margheritas.
Reading things like this makes me wish we could slap people through the internet
Do these people think Measles is the goddamn Pokérus?
"I caught the measles and I turned into Mr Mime." Terrifying...
All these people do is prescribe placebos. Homeopathy is almost funny save for the damage it does by pretending to be medecine.
Just another guy supporting my theory that homeopathy is quack and should be illegal, and people promoting it should be sued for medical malpractice.
Whoever pays for an homeopath needs to cut just a tiny corner of a $20 bill, dilute it 1000 times in water and pay with that. It's worth more than the homeopathic services.
Let's see what Zombie Roald Dahl has to say about the subject...
God bless all he did to promote vaccines.
little know fact but einstein actually got measles 6 times and thats why hes so smart
spoiler
(he did not actually get measles 6 times)
