I’ve been gettng tetanus shots all my life. As a kid, I played all kinds of games on dirt, climbed walls, rode my bike down ravines, climbed fences, down river beds, got my foot pierced by a nail on wood plank I stepped on, and those days you got a shot, not the ten year vaccine, but later on I got and still get the booster vaccine everybten years. My mother would race me to get the shot every single time. I remember when you could not eat eggs after the shot in the early days, and all.

These parents are fing stupid, and they cost tne rest of us insurance money. No vaccine? I say ....DIE. Treat yourself at home. F off.

I have lost all patience and sympathy for idiots.

Unvaccinated boy nearly died from tetanus. The cost of his care was almost $1 million.

An unvaccinated Oregon boy almost died from tetanus and underwent painful, two-month treatment that cost close to a million dollars, according to a case report published Friday by the CDC. Doctors wrote that the family then declined to allow the 6-year-old to receive a second dose of the standard vaccine against tetanus "and any other recommended immunizations."

“This was entirely preventable — an unnecessary episode of torture for this poor child," said Dr. Albert Wu, a professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
