I had the great misfortune to meet in person for the first time a real life anti-vaxxer, so against it that she won't even vaccinate her pets. After her rant, I asked her how she distinguished what was true from what wasn't to which she responded "I don't know". I asked her how she felt about potentially killing people by spreading the virus and she replied that she took her temperature every morning. I asked her if she knew that the experts handling the virus and the vaccine had spent their lives learning about how such emergencies are best handled by communities. She said like her father before her, the gubmint was not going to tell her what to do.

When she finished doing a shitty job of cleaning my house, I called her employer and said I could not risk my health to accommodate their employee's unfounded beliefs. It's funny how people who don't know shit think they know the most without ever having developed an area of expertise. I fear what we're really up against here is a sizable American demographic that is truly uneducable.
