Smallfil the Troll,
When you were young, America's school system required vaccination proof (card) that showed you were vaccinated against chickenpox and measles to be able to access our education system.
If you were not, you were not allowed to attend the education system (public or private) in North America. In addition, you weren't allowed to play organized sports at elementary, Jr. high, high school nor college level.
- In contrast, if you grew up outside of North America...there are many countries that did not use compulsory vaccine mandates for access to their education system.
The
bullshit lie in your post occurred when you mention Measles because if you're an American...you would have been vaccinated for the Measles to be allowed to go to school just like I was and everybody else.
In my youth, attending schools in North America...Kentucky, South Dakota, and Illinois...only vaccines for Hepatitis and the Flu were not mandatory to attend schools. They were optional and most Doctors gave kids vaccinations for that too. In fact, they came to the schools in small colorful trucks that looked like ice cream trucks about a month prior to the start of the fall school year for anyone that needed to be vaccinated.
Also, we had eye exams / hearing exams via similar mobile trucks too.

In 1977, the U.S. federal government set up the
Childhood Immunization InitiativeTrusted Source aimed at increasing vaccination rates in children against the seven diseases for which vaccines are routinely given in childhood, including:
- diphtheria
- measles
- mumps
- pertussis
- poliomyelitis
- rubella
- tetanus
This is when all 50 states widely adopted mandatory school vaccinations.
Today, all states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories have vaccination requirements for children to attend school and childcare facilities. State laws establish vaccination requirements, as well as mechanisms for enforcement and rules for exemption...

Let's pretend you're a teenager posting here @ Elitetrader.com
You would then add the below mandatory vaccines to the above list for access to our education school system in North America...
- Chickenpox
- Whooping cough
- Hepatitis
- HIB and meningococcal meningitis
Simply, you've now established that you're either a liar
or you're
not from North America while hanging out at a North American forum to preach bullshit about North American politics along with your support of Covid / Pandemic / Vaccine misinformation/disinformation.
Thus, you were vaccinated unless you never attended schools in North America. The exception to growing up in North America were those that grew up in an
anti-vaccine commune (we called them cults back then) and the parents home schooled their children to avoid the mandatory vaccinations.
- Those kids had chickenpox, measles but also other dangerous diseases because their parents believed in Natural Immunity.
There was an anti-vaccine cult community in your community in Kentucky. All the kids in that commune were home schooled but unable to play organized sports. About a 1/7 of them died off from other dangerous diseases that they were not vaccinated against when they did not get immunized.
In fact, there was an outbreak in the area because of those
anti-vaccine asswipes. It resulted in the public health agency requiring parents to bring their children's vaccination card on the day of enrollment along with a signed letter from the Doctor that verified we were vaccinated against the disease that caused the outbreak...
This was in Kentucky...not some liberal state.
