There's possibly a religious element whether habit or ideology involved as well.

An avoidable, and easily so, death though.

@gregggonsalves Future deaths, absolutely. But this outbreak is in a Mennonite community of kids in private and home schools. The anti-vax movement is nothing new, especially among cults; I was raised in it in the 90s. These kids probably haven't been vaxxed their whole lives—well before COVID came along.

But yes, this is where we're headed, and medically neglected kids are going to keep paying the price.
