...What the post is about (a nonvaccinated child bringing back measles and spreading) is probably referring to, as typically happens, is the antivaxxers live in a community of antivaxxers and so the measles spreads easily among them. "Larsmo is... some 5,000 people, many of them members of fundamentalist religious communities. The child who fell ill ... visited a prayer room where other unvaccinated children were present before being diagnosed.
...epidemics were common in Finland..breaking out every 5-7 years, but the illness has been virtually eliminated in the country since 1970. [People born before 1970, have a > likelihood of having had or being exposed to measles, and thus having natural protection against contracting the illness again]
...a resurgence of the virus in EU. The WHO says that a record 41,000 people were infected in the 1st 1/2 of the year, w/ 37 deaths... up from just over 5,000 cases just two years ago. The WHO attributes the explosion to lower numbers of people."

Sloth. As i expected too

...If you were hurt due to some rare thing from vaccinations Guillain-Barre, anaphylaxis, a simultaneous illness, or some other complication/side effect, sorry, but in general the larger population is more important, and by having the ~90% needed for herd immunity to protect the 10% who can't have the vaccines from other vaccine available viruses in the world. The antivaxxers who go along with it because they're uninformed and it's trendy in their groups, are the people provaxxers think are idiots, not those with legit reasons not to receive vaccines. If approved by a doctor, children do get DTaP at 2, 4, 6, 15-18mo, 4-6yr, then Tdap at 11-12yr & every pregnancy; MMR at 12-15mo (quick immunization schedule check). Some vaccines take multiple injections to be what is considered fully protected; if some no-reason-but-ignorance parent allows their infected child near others before those ages they are potentially, willingly, harming the ones just waiting to age in from preventable harm.

Some vaccines can't be given because kids too young & are at risk. Some people have their immune systems compromised (like chemotherapy destroying bone marrow so can't produce enough white blood cells to fight off the disease, or they are simply ill/injured from other things and it's easier for the virus to infect them). Some, very few, people legitimately cannot receive vaccines due to allergies to ingredients. Some viruses mutate in the child which then can then infect those who would have been able to resist the original virus. Provaxxers aren't saying there are 0 people who have serious negative reactions, they're saying those idiot parents insisting that vaccines cause autism and cancer, or are some conspiracy, because they've only lived in the communities where there are high vaccine rates & haven't seen the preventable damage/death that the diseases that can be vaccinated against can cause (polio - paralysis, smallpox - disfigurement, etc. brain swelling, blindness, deafness)..

His name is Lennu :)
