  Damn I wish the media would run more scare stories about pandemics of extremely virulent diseases that are actually completely preventable! "Don't want to risk having your child die? Don't want potential life long health problems? Get vaccinated today!" >_<

  Universities require all standard vaccinations. How was this student admitted to Berkeley?

  ...and this is why people shouldn't be able to stop their children from being vaccinated because they're too stupid to understand how it works.

  The UK regularly seems small-scale measles outbreaks due to the same idiots.
