ItTs jUsT a cOmMoN cHiLdHoOD ILlNeSs !!1! 🤮
Nobody even does from it anymore!
I have zero sympathy for the contents in the Florida Oblast. Zero!
Well it sure beats being gay, am i right Florida?!
*hears sirens approaching*
Uh oh. I forgot.
Republicans and social nedia have brought back old illnesses
Let them die. Let’s put together a fund that helps pro-vaccine people move out of the Florida wasteland.
??? The people who are going to suffer and die from this are the children who don't get vaccinated and the immunocompromised who can't. The dingbats who wanted this will be fine because they themselves were vaccinated as children.

Oh noooo what a shame
Whoop whoop it's the year of Juggalo!
I wonder what impact this has had / will have on the for-profit health care industry in the US.
They should pray harder.
Praying to nurgle got them into this.
But but but my main goal in life is to make floridian lawmakers and lobbyists more powerful than anyone else so who cares about disease and stuff.
The ONLY way to Prevent this is to PRAY MORE! Also we DONT want to Prevent it because Whooping Cough SAVES the Children!
Glad to see Darwinian evolution playing out. The children of the stupid are dieing off. Hopefully this means the next generation won't buy into Brawndo being what plants crave
Florida is a literal cesspool. Glad I’m far away from it.
Fake news! There have always been whooping cough! My cousin took it! And he is fine! Better than the risk of microchip 5G in the vaccines!

I keep quoting that one famous Iowan: Let them die.
Good, let them die
The children who are going to suffer and die from this didn't ask for it, it was their parents who are themselves vaccinated.
