I feel bad for the kids, but their parents should be charged with neglect of a child or something.

If only we had some way to preemptively build our immune system defenses with, idk, a dead virus or something

Measles is beyond contagious. Something like R18. But you don't have to get it. Now these antivax dolts will probably breed a new strain that escapes the vaccine.

I read that as missiles. Like WTF Florida!?! It's still WTF, but not missle striking an elementary.

I went to Florida for the first time back in 2022 and swore I would never go again. Feeling pretty good about that decision.
