Climate Change Just Changed

Having probably not lived through fatal measles epidemics or seen rooms full of people in iron lungs it's easy to think this way, speak to the older generation and try to use that perspective.

Here is a famous account of losing a child to measles: http://www.roalddahl.com/roald-dahl/timeline/1960s/november-1962

Those diseases are all but eradicated now (measles is seeing a resurgence in certain localities due to the concentration of antivax kooks in those areas.)

The benefits, with that perspective in mind overwhelmingly outweigh the risks.

If you think that's not the case then you simply lack the perspective to understand your privilege.

read what I said ... how about if your kid died from a vaccine related side-effect that your doctor didn't inform you of?
