    And what about my wife? She’s allergic to the measles vaccination.

      That seems different than a refusal, no? That seems more like a medical incompatibility.

        People use bullshit excuses all the time to avoid getting their kids vaccinated, including “allergies”.

          “Allergies” are medically provable. Bullshit reasons are stuff like “sky daddy told me I don’t hafta” and “the govmint can’t 5g me”

            That is certainly one extreme.

      That’s a contrarian question, of course there would be loopholes for that.

      I assume it would be documented and considered an exception

        She lost the documentation years ago. We’re almost 40.

          You can either get the documentation reprinted, or get tested, no?

            Yes, but it’s just another thing on the pile of shit we’re dealing with right now. The fact that she is a woman already doesn’t bode well. We’re just glad that we’re both sterilized, all things considered…

      Then she is also allergic to measles, because all it is is weakened measles itself.

                I got nothing to prove to you, asswipe. It’s people like you that makes it difficult for others to be taken seriously at the doctor’s office. Fuck off and die.
