    These parties are geared at gathering children together to spread measles amongst the children. The parents arranging it are likely vaccinated, so the harm is focused on the kids. You’re suggesting that these kids should get sick and possibly die to spite your enemies.

    Not to mention that vaccines are only 97% effective, so spread to vaccinated people is likely. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd/mmr/public/index.html

    Add to that the fact that measles can also essentially reset the immune system making people lose the effectiveness of vaccines for other diseases. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20211112-the-people-with-immune-amnesia

    But, that’s all ok just to spite your enemies? Innocent children should be subjected to measles and the general public should be endangered?
