    What is wrong with all these Christian anti-vaxxers?

    Oh good grief. No one said WHO YOU have to Trust or listen TO or take their Advice. Why did you ASK “YOUR DOCTOR”? DID you hear Government Reps speaking of a SCARY Virus? DID you hear a news Commentary of a News Reporters Opinion? DID you do as the Government Suggested and New Reporters...

    What is wrong with all these Christian anti-vaxxers?
