It's almost like we knew we didn't want measles and all were getting vaccinated so we didn't have to live like it was in 1950 🤷🏼‍♀️ PSA: anti-vax isn't cool, it isn't protecting your family. You and your family don't want complications from diseases that can be prevented.

My kid has to select the proper US state as an online interactive map calls them out in random order in under 2 minutes. I can't even come close. It's near impossible when you have to zoom in on small states in the NE to accurately press the right tiiiny state on an iPad and then zoom back out.

The tiny amount of aluminum helps make certain vaccines even more effective& has a strong safety record. “In the first six months of babies’ lives, vaccines expose them to roughly 4.4 milligrams of aluminum. One slice of American cheese, by contrast, can contain as much as 50 milligrams of aluminum”
nytimes.com
Yes, Some Vaccines Contain Aluminum. That’s a Good Thing.
R.F.K. Jr. and others have blamed the ingredient for allergies and other illnesses. Scientists say it actually bolsters the immune response.
