What do you get when you take a hefty dose of nostalgia and mix it with the idiocy of the anti-vaccination movement? The Anti-Vaccination girls!
What do you get when you take a hefty dose of nostalgia and mix it with the idiocy of the anti-vaccination movement? The Anti-Vaccination girls!
We sincerely hoped that we'd never have to remind you the importance of getting vaccinated, but here we are. Washington state declared a state of emergency yesterday in light of 35 recently confirmed cases of measles, a highly infectious disease that can be fatal in young children - and easily prevented with the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine. News reports cite anti-vaxx communities as a major catalyst in the spread of the disease.
While most of us are high-key freaking out about the epidemic, many anti-vaxxers are remaining calm about the ordeal, claiming that refusal to get the vaccine can improve their child's immune system. We hope we don't need to explain why this logic is completely insane, but for anyone in your life who does in fact need a little refresher on the importance of vaccines, be sure to direct them toward this educational comic!
This delightful assortment of memes is just what you need to quench your thirst forprocrastination. They're more fun than cleaning your room, and slightly less fun than playing video games or watching television, so you don't have to be terribly guilty about your choices.
Anti-vaxxer logic is pretty much non-existent, yet somehow their ranting and raving has become news - and threatened peoples lives, too. While these memes won't be able to take down their highly unscientific movement, they'll definitely spread a little bit of knowledge.
