Adverse reactions? You mean like death? Wtf is a worse reaction than that? If you truly cared for your child, you'd do everything in your power to keep death as far from your kid as possible.
These people belong in jail for willfully killing someone.
The parents murdered their child.
Hamburger-faced RFK is conspiring to murder more.
I hope you can vaccinate your children and they are not immunocompromised and relying on herd immunity
Because the Republicans don’t want to live in a society where we take care of each other.
I wouldn't be surprised if they started banning vaccinated children from school.
That’d be insane the classes would have like two kids in them
… so yeah completely plausible move by these idiots 😩
What the heck kind of photo op is that? The guy in charge of keeping people from dying takes a picture with a family whose daughter died from a preventable illness?
"Hey, good job on the dead kid! Lets take a picture!"
Just following the boss's example...
Donald Trump is facing backlash after he was seen giving a thumbs-up and smiling while posing for photos at Arlington National Cemetery. The ‘controversial’ gestures were made at the graves of soldiers who were killed during the 2021 U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.
This is even a few years after calling all soldiers that die in war "suckers" and "losers"
"Cheese!"
Like, seriously. They're smiling like their cute little 8-yo isn't dead a few days ago. What fucking sick ghouls.
What’s sad is that these clowns are also the same type of people that’ll take erectile disfunction meds that can cause things like strokes and heart attacks, just so they can pork their idiot anti-vax wives, but when it comes to protecting their children from deadly viral inventions, somehow the risk is too high?
I wish someone could speak face-to-face with these assholes so they could be told directly and right through their crocodile tears- that their kid would still be alive if they actually truly cared enough about them to do the right thing to begin with.
I would LOVE to see them slowly come to realize the abject horror of what they have done as their denial is gradually peeled away, layer by ignorant layer, lie by shameful lie.
These people need to suffer. And it needs to be public, because through example, we learn.
I saw a vid of a doctor talking to anti-vaxers.
They don't want to learn. They want to be in their own little reality where they are right and "stupid idiot DOCTORS" are wrong.
They will never learn. Psychologically, how could they ever admit that they set the stage for their own child's death? There's just no way. It's much easier for them to ignore basic science for the rest of their own lives.
Jesus Christ, I'm amazed they managed to keep RFK from eating the fucking corpse.
He didn't eat it but he did strap it to the roof of his car while he ran some errands.
As Daisy was laid to rest alongside Kayley in a modest Mennonite churchyard, her father hopes her story sparks reflection — if not on vaccines, then on care, compassion, and the urgent need to protect the vulnerable.
'She was my little girl,' he says softly. 'And they let her down.'
No, you let her down.
Daisy, once a healthy and energetic child, got sick about a month ago. She came down with a fever, sore throat, and eventually pneumonia.
The family tried to treat their daughter at home with cod liver oil, popular in the community for helping to 'strengthen the immune system'.
But when that failed, they took her to the hospital.
Hold on. So let me get this straight.
And this guy blames the Hospital?
Wow. You might as blame God, Mickey Mouse, and Tiktok dancers who also failed to keep her alive as well.
Skipped: 0. Did not vaccinate their child against the most common and deadly childhood infectious disease (measles), for which a free and highly effective vaccine is available and offered.
There was a similar case here in Alberta several years ago. Kid got bacterial meningitis and his parents tried to treat it with chili oil and maple syrup. Poor kid reached the point where he couldn't sit because his back muscles were seized, so Mom threw a mattress in the back of the car for him to lay on to visit the naturopath. Nurse friend of theirs alerted them to the possibility of meningitis and told them to take him to a doctor, but instead they went home and did nothing for several more days... kid eventually stopped breathing, and they only called 911 after he started turning blue. They lived in bumfuck nowhere, so it took fifteen or twenty minutes to meet the ambulance in the middle.
Rather than accept even a shred of responsibility, they blamed the ambulance for not being adequately equipped to resuscitate their child.
You forgot:
She was eight. Their callous stone-headed defiance against giving a safe and effective vaccine to their children killed their otherwise entirely healthy eight year old girl, who had friends and dreams and goals and a favourite colour.
Sadistic, unrepentant morons.
And now they're basking in the limelight with the celebrity-cum-Health-czar?
I can confidentltly say this sideshow would occur in no other western nation. America is sliding backwards so fast its an avalanche.
Joselyn doesn’t want to get her children vaccinated despite the outbreak because she claims to know people who’ve had adverse reactions
Because 'death' totally isn't one of the possible adverse reactions from measles. Oh wait..
It's amazing to me how many people antivaxxers claim to know who've had adverse reactions to a vaccine, given how low actual rates are. I'm convinced that these dipshits not only attribute every sniffle and scrape they suffer to vaccines they received, often years or decades earlier, but use the word "know" as shorthand for "heard thirdhand from someone."
One antivaxxer I used to work with claimed he knew six people who'd suffered severe adverse affects from one of the COVID shots, but it turned out they were all cases he'd heard about from a girl he used to date whose former roommate was a nurse or some bullshit.
I'm one of the people who had an adverse reaction to the COVID vaccine and boosters, a mild allergic reaction resulting in shortness of breath. Sucked to have to spend an extra hour or so at the vaccine centre each time to be monitored, but a small price to pay. My father-in-law unfortunately did develop pericarditis, which was a known side-effect of the vaccine he received. He's doing better these days, but it took over a year to clear up.
But despite that, I'd still recommend getting those shots. Apart from these side-effects being rare, I've seen how Long-COVID fucked up two of my friends. Both in their 20's, healthy, worked out very regularly and in peak condition. COVID completely wrecked them, one catched it before the vaccine became available and the other now regrets his decision to put his trust in the crap floating around social media. Hard lesson to learn.
Personally I came down with COVID at some point and it made Influenza feel like the common cold. I don't think I've ever felt worse in my entire life and I shudder at the thought of how it might have ended had I skipped the jabs.
"How could the liberals have done this to me?"
There should be someone assigned to follow these stupid sacks of shit around through every waking moment. Any time they try to express an opinion, their minder can slap them into oblivion and remind anyone nearby that these assholes killed their own kid. No tip-toeing around and giving them space to craft their own narrative about what happened, just a perpetual rain of palms on faces until the message sinks in.
Make this your platform and you've got my vote
Oh of course they’re some kind of Mennonite or Christian extremist. look at her head covering.
Religon is child abuse
They're doing victory laps with a politician over a dead kid, it doesn't get much more grotesque or morbid.
They should be charged with child abuse and neglect, and any other children removed from their care.
They won’t, unfortunately. They’ll continue to reproduce and do the same shit over again.
Cult.
When cognitive dissonance turns deadly.
There's no cognitive dissonance here, and far too many people misuse the term. Cognitive dissonance is a feeling of discomfort a person feels from holding beliefs that contradict each other or from behaving contrary to their beliefs.
This is just plain old stupidity. These assholes believed vaccines are a hoax, their daughter died as a result, and they still believe vaccines are a hoax. They behaved exactly as one would expect antivaxxers to behave.
With parents like that, the dead kid got off lucky.
Republicans are SO Pro Life and Pro Family that not EVEN KILLING THEIR OWN CHILD will Change Their Minds about ANYTHING!
Meh, your daughter is dead but who cares? You got to meet JFK, man, who gives a shit about some bratty girl?
Jesus would find it difficult not to slap the shit out of the parents
If they're going to consider abortion as murder, then child neglect should be penalized even harder.
That poor fucking girl. To have a precious life cut short because your parents have been intentionally brainwashed. Just tragic.
She died doing what they loved.
Ignoring modern medicine in exchange for right wing cred.
The family are Mennonite, part of a small Christian community that often emphasizes 'natural remedies' over modern medicine.
I mean if you absolutely want to you can kinda see death as a weird form of "natural remedy" I guess... Because once dead you definitely aren't sick anymore and on top of that you also won't ever get sick anymore. Doubt this is what they want to hear though.
