For sure. We’re gonna drop under the minimum vaccine threshold for measles, smallpox, polio, and more. Leave us to roll in our own filth
Edit: smallpox is eradicated in the wild. did not know that
It worries me when people say this, because it implies that you guys just regurgitate stuff without understanding it at all. There is no minimum vaccine threshold anywhere in the world for smallpox, it is eradicated, same with polio with the exceptions of a few isolated areas. The US is not unique in not vaccinating for smallpox, nobody but soldiers and researchers are still vaccinated for smallpox worldwide and most countries do not generally vaccinate for polio, because it doesn’t exist in the wild in most countries. There are so many scary things that could happen because of people not vaccinating. The return of smallpox would require more than vaccine hesitancy though let alone the US “stopping vaccinating against it.” The US has not routinely vaccinated for smallpox since 1972. This would require a lab leak or bioterrorism. Please, being ignorant in the correct direction is really not that much better than ignorance in the wrong direction. Learn more about issues.
Polio is on the rise again. New wild variants as well as vaccine derived strands are contributing to it.
When vaccination rate and access to healthcare are good, this does not cause an issue, but if it lowers, or if the health system is deliberately destroyed like in Gaza, it creates the ground for a new outbreak.
Yes, there are a few isolated areas of the world where polio is still a threat and vaccine efforts are very important including for anyone visiting that area, and yes, it could get bad enough that anti-vaccine morons could reintroduce polio to a developed nation and that would be disastrous. However, for the time being there is no minimum herd immunity threshold for polio in the developed world, it is eradicated there and vaccines for it have not been recommended for the general populace for quite some time.
Have you ever seen us manage a problem that we didn’t share with the rest of the world? Were that asshole who caught Covid and then went to the pubs as a malicious joke.
We’ll soon have to quarantine people from the USA lol.

The MAGA zombie: Rabid, riddled with infectious diseases and shitting themselves everywhere from drinking raw milk.
World War Z 2.0 is going to be fun.
Maybe the problem will solve itself?

Hey, I said maybe!
They’ll all get rabies and then spread it by biting each other.
