Let them die, they are getting everything they wished for. Would have been so nice if they’d only had the brains to recognize what they were wishing for but alas, here we are.
Here’s the problem with that, the anti-vax adults were likely vaccinated as children, so they’ll live, while their children die, never connecting the dots as to why they survived.
Vaccines are not 100% effective. You need those kids to be vaccinated also or your vaccinated child would still run a 3% risk if exposed. I have terrible luck and that’s not a risk I am willing to take.
My daughter’s school will allow for medically necessary unvaccinated children (eg, immunocompromised so cannot take a live vaccine), but only until they hit the herd immunity limit. After that they turn away parents for the unvaccinated child because they have to protect the other children. Those parents will probably be frustrated at first but, recognizing the need for herd immunity from the school for their child, will be better off. They will just have to find a other school that has an opening. This shouldn’t be hard if the only refusal for vaccines was for medical purposes, but it’s getting harder these days.
Public schools should do this. I think some do, but maybe not. And certainly not with our current admin if they can force whatever they want. My point though is that it’s not only the “stupid antivaxxer’s kids” who will die. It’s 3% of all the others. And that’s just for measles. Polio is coming back too. Who knows what else.
A lot of us with conservative families would prefer not to be lumped in with them, not everyone follows their parents footsteps, especially with conservative ones.

And? I’m at the point where I see it as gene removal from the pool
Sorry, not sorry. It sucks to be those kids but they can’t be saved no matter what you do and these kids will be the next anti Vax generation anyway
Good riddance
Harsh.
low key agree tho
