For covid. Presumably ebiester is interested in being vaccinated against other diseases.


Yup. If they take this far enough I’ll be taking my son out of the country for boosters. I’m not letting my son be hurt, become sick, or die (depending on the wide range of diseases young children are vaccinated or inoculated against) because of this out of touch scam artist nepo baby.


Have you considered taking your child to a European state? Reason I ask is that there is a vaccine for tuberculosis (the BCG vaccine) which is widely available in European countries but not in the USA. On my next trip to Europe I hope to take that vaccine.

FWIW TB was the leading infectious disease killer in 2023 (surpassing COVID-19)

and remained so in 2024.


Happily TB is rare in the US, but if you travel a lot maybe it's worthwhile.


Rare for now.
