Summary
A father whose unvaccinated six-year-old daughter became the first U.S. measles death in 10 years remains steadfast in his anti-vaccine beliefs.
The Mennonite man from Seminole, Texas told The Atlantic, “The vaccination has stuff we don’t trust,” maintaining that measles is normal despite its near-eradication through vaccination.
His stance echoes claims by HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr., who initially downplayed the current North American outbreak before changing his position under scrutiny.
Despite his daughter’s death, the father stated, “Everybody has to die.”
Maybe, depends if he was born and raised Mennonite then it’s possible he didn’t. But that also means he likely did nothing to comfort his daughter as she died or else he would have caught it too
It’s also possible he was very lucky and had a mild case of measles as a child. That’s often a reason people don’t take a dangerous disease seriously, especially when you add the religious factor. He’s an idiot who killed his child but we don’t know he didn’t care about her or try to comfort her.
