I will choose to vaccine my children every time.
In 1962 author Roald Dahl's oldest child Olivia was infected with measles.
Days later she died from encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain.
This was one year before the first measles vaccine.
In 1986 he wrote a heartfelt letter to parents about the importance of vaccines.

I’m an NSF panel reviewer that was scheduled to meet today. Just got notice that all NSF panels were canceled today. I reviewed some innovative proposals in support of students. Devastating if these scholars don’t get to do this work. For the love of science & students I hope this is just a delay.💔

If you speak out against a vaccine, you're anti-vax.
RFK, Jr. has spent the last 20 years speaking out against vaccines.
