    It’s not unusual to give pox to anyone

    🎺🎺🎺

    It’s not unusual to give polio to them

    So when I see out and about unvaccinated, it’s not unusual to see me cry

    You’re gonna die

      If you had 14 outbreaks the previous year, and now you see one, then no it is not uncommon to have a few each year.

        Put the outbreaks on a graph. Look at the year on year changes. Come back when you have learned to read data you incompetent prick.

          You’re acting like the incompetent prick. If you think it’ll prove something then by all means do it. The CDC URL I linked to already had charts.
