So, my an online american friend said"My mom didn’t want to vaccine vax cuzs autism". Is he joking? I know many people say thing like that but i thought they all were joking?
In my country which is a third world country no one believe shit like that even my Grand mother who is illiterate and religious don’t believe thing like that and knows the benefit of vaccine.
The rumor started with a few celebrities with their new age theories (from the same era that brought you “rock and roll comes from the devil”, “Anne Frank didn’t write her diaries”, and “Elvis is alive but Paul McCartney is dead”) and then it just kind of picked up because America isn’t very pro-disability and gets alienated easily. Fortunately it has finally just about died down, but once in a while someone will bring it up.
Someone like the secretary of health or the president, as it currently stands
The American president?
When did this happen?
