ProPublica has published a scare-mongering article entitled "The Horrors That Could Lie Ahead if Vaccines Vanish." The gist of the article is that if the childhood vaccination schedule is modified like Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has urged, WE WILL ALL DIE. And it makes this argument even though the Kennedy's plan would not do away with the vaccines on which the article focuses. Like I said, it is scare-mongering. But the article had a bit of truth that had somehow been overlooked:
Outbreaks often start when an American catches one of these illnesses abroad and returns home.
Of course it isn't just Americans that bring these diseases back with them but the foreigners that also come to our country. That the article makes no mention of that source of diseases merely underscores that it is a pure propaganda piece.
