Recent Gallup poll on the importance of vaccinating children, comparing Dems and Repub. This is not good.
@carmen My parents were anti pox parties like why would you intentionally make your kid miserable.
@Ruthat It is very dangerous to expose children to diseases. With chicken pox, some of the side effects are devastating like deafness.
@Ruthat I got chicken pox as a kid when my aunt, in her home spun wisdom, decided I should play with my neighborhood friend who was infectious. Anyway, fast forward to now, I have dutifully gotten the shingles vaccines because I don’t want to risk getting shingles.
