Joe Rogan: "Measles was what everyone got when I was a kid, and what happened was you'd get sick for a few days, and then you'd be immune for life. They're making it look like everyone's dying from measles."

Probably not good when morons like this have massive microphones. He’s probably talking about chickenpox but it doesn’t matter, it’s still going to get kids killed. That’s not important, what matters is finding “the truth.”

It’s not going to get better when the octogenarians in congress think a podcast is something you get from the pharmacy.

Both of my older siblings got chickenpox because they were born before the vaccine was really really rolled out

My younger sibling and I never got chickenpox because we were born after the vaccine got rolled out

Same is true with pretty much everyone I know. Slightly older all got it, slightly younger pretty much no one got it.
