... The survey found that one in three parents of children under age 5 say they intend to delay or refuse some or all of their children's recommended vaccines. Only about 4% of first-time pregnant women intend to delay or refuse all recommended vaccines. However, the study showed that first-time pregnant women are far more uncertain about vaccination decisions. Nearly half of these women are unsure if they will fully vaccinate their children, compared to only 4% of parents of young children who stated they are uncertain. About 40% of parents say they intend for their child to receive all recommended vaccines, while 20% plan to delay some vaccines. Over 30% of parents with young children intend to refuse some or all vaccines for their children. ...

Good job by MAGA on convincing people that proven methods for disease prevention that have been working for decades with no problems are part of a giant conspiracy. Getting people to reject the truth is a big step in getting them to accept fascist dictators.

Now, when more and more kids get sick, Republicans won't say it's because the kids aren't vaccinated.
Republicans will say it is because of disease carrying immigrants that must be rounded up for our own safety.
