    What I don’t get is that people will chose the terrible effects of the disease over the chance of having side effects from the vaccine when they’re orders of magnitude different levels of effect.

      The “side effect” (autism) they are terrified of, isn’t actually a potential side effect of vaccines, no matter how much they want it to be.

        Yeah:

        1. Autism isn’t caused by vaccines
        2. Autism Isn’t a punishment

        I’d rather be a person with autism than whatever they’ve got going.
