Anti-vac children on the line

YLE Wrote:Measles shows up in southern Finland
The front page of the print version of Ilta Sanomat -- Helsingin Sanomat’s companion tabloid daily -- highlights a worrying case of measles in Lohja that has exposed more than 100 children to the extremely infectious disease
According to the daily, one child was diagnosed with the disease at the small village school in Sammatti in Lohja, southern Finland. Local authorities are particularly concerned about the case since about 40 children have reportedly not been inoculated against the disease.
Local health officials have ordered all of the children who have not been vaccinated into home quarantine for at least one week, for their own safety.
Worst part of this is, in the mentioned Ilta Sanomat, the parents proudly stated that "in this community we don't vaccinate our children!". Yeah, these fuckers should be fined for child abuse and for willfully spreading disease.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Oh fuck. The potential for Lohja to be wiped off the map!

If I remember rightly (and I'm NOT a physician), the technical term for the littl'uns who don't get childhood vaccines is 'corpse'.

If not, then vegetable. Measels causes brain damage in about 1/1000, so it's not common, but as a parent I would not appreciate those numbers.

Stupid is always proud, for some unfathomable reason.

Maybe too late if they have already been exposed?
