Diphteria is back too, y'all.
Excellent reporting by @stephanienolen.bsky.social on the resurgence of #Diphteria in displaced populations, with a focus on #Somalia. The resurgence of this infectious disease is happening globally due to declining vaccination rates.

I had Measles as a kid, bc I'm old and the vax didn't exist yet. I remember being very sick.
My mom was a stay-at-home mom with 2 kids and we each got measles, mumps and rubella
But we did vaccinated for polio, tetanus, diphteria, small pox, and whooping cough

Wait until diphteria and polio come back. Because they will. Wait until parents will watch their kids suffocate or become paralysed for life, and no blame on Biden will help them.

AKA pertussis—the P in TDaP, which protects against three diseases: Tetanus (lockjaw) Diphteria and Pertussis.
These diseases will kill your children. And it will be your fault for not doing what is best for your child because you believed a bunch of crackpots making a profit off of you.

Except for the herd immunity bit: a fairly high percentage need to be vaccinated to reach herd immunity.
But sure, if you want your kids to die of whooping cough, measles, diphteria or tetanus, it is totally up to you.

I feel sorry for my US online friends, here in Germany you get all common vaccinations for free. I´m vaxxed against Covid (4 x), flu (yearly), zoster, pneumonia, diphteria, whooping cough, measles, polio. All shots were/are paid for by the mandatory health insurance here.

The #WorldHealthOrganization reports that 27% of babies have not received vaccines against #diphteria, #whoopingcough or #tetanus.
The Mexican "government" generated a medicine shortage since 2018. Mexico used to be one of the best countries for #vaccine coverage.

What would a world without vaccines look like? All the airborne diseases for which vaccines exist, listed in red below, would then make a dramatic comeback. Since the vast majority of classrooms are poorly ventilated, they would be a continuous source of airborne contamination.
