Life imitates art (in a clueless way)

Watched this clip and thought about how stupid these healthcare workers are. Then, at 1:38, one of them says something about opinions:  

... and I could only laugh as I thought about this exchange on the big bang theory:

It’s played for laughs, as the mother character says something so stupid that no one can take it seriously.

Truly, talking to these holdouts and anti vaxxers is like the comedy hour.

Auburn’s new football coach raising alarms

We need to see more of this kind of reporting. The message has to be clear: get vaccinated. Adding "dumbass" is optional.

The virus

I'm a tolerant guy. I can accept various points of view - so long as you can intelligently defend your position on something.

But now we've reached a point of stupidity where "self selection" is happening and survival of the fittest is playing out, right before us.

People are refusing vaccines because…they think they know something?, and they understand "their own bodies" whatever that means.

They are wrong. And it's on them.

I have no sympathy for how they're being singled out, or (heaven forbid!) discriminated against. And limited sympathy for the families for those refusing vaccines who get sick.
