Unvaccinated Florida kids exposed to measles can skip quarantine, officials say

However, due to the high immunity rate in the community, as well as the burden on families and educational costs of healthy children missing school, [the health department] is deferring to parents or guardians to make decisions about school attendance."

This is fucking bonkers.

We know it's hard on you, so fuck preventing a breakout of the most contagious disease we've encountered, that not only is bad on its own, but resets your immunity fucking you over even more for years to come.

I'm 53. I have never met, or heard of, a person that had measles. I honestly don't really know what it is.

As kids, we all thought that shit was extinct. Measles were as irrelevant as smallpox and polio.

This state is being ran by trash people, same as the rest of the red states.

Edit: All of you getting excited to see Florida get destroyed can fuck right off, normal people who don't vote for conservatives live here too, grow tf up and stop treating these things like it's team sports. The GOP is the problem, not some random citizens of the states they hold hostage.

Ladapo is a quack that should be thrown in jail for child endangerment.

Oh, so it's a death cult now? Cool, cool cool...

The pro life party, ladies and gentlemen.

Man. Florida fucking sucks.

I hate my state so much man. Nothing but the worst of the worst here.

In fairness to them, they are consistent when it comes to ignoring science.

What the hell is wrong over there? At the moment i think every news article considering the US is making me shaking my head harder...

Yeah this checks out for Florida. I wouldn’t be surprised if the vaccination rate declines over the next few years. Talk about having a burr up your ass from Covid vaccines.

What would the numbers be if autism wasn't stigmatized?

almost /nottheonion material with the post about permission forms for teens to watch kids movies in school next to this one

Waiting for the responsible parents who pulled their kids out to get charged for truancy.

"My kid got measles and it's my fault, can I get a WHOOP WHOOP"

I have to get out of this state before it kills me.

Can the rest of the country have a standing quarantine of Florida?

Do we have enough paper to print darwin awards?

Is someone trying to cull all the stupid people...?

I’m pretty okay with where Florida is going. Just keep it in Florida

i honestly hope this just completely wipes out all anti vaccinaters. Reaping what the dumb cunts have fucking sowed.
