Nobody wants to face the public wrath of the internet but anti-vaxxers experience this daily as people continue to troll them, however, you know what's even worse than getting challenged by someone you don't know online - someone online with a medical degree. That's right according to data analysis from CNN measles cases in the United States have surpassed the highest number on record since the disease was declared eliminated nationwide in 2000.

Doctors are employing all strategies to fight the disease from using electronic medical records to identify unvaccinated patients living in outbreak zones to refusing to accept patients who haven't been vaccinated - and now they have taken the fight to Twitter. Sure some of these savage tweets are funny, but believe it or not, fighting misinformation on the internet is vitally important, even when it's done in a simple tweet. Scroll down below to read some anti-vaxxers get destroyed by doctors and don't forget to upvote your favs!

Love it! I always found that people that are anti-vaxx and yet still take their kids to regular pediatricians are being hypocrites. You care enough about your child's health to have them see a doctor for every cough, sniffle and hiccup..but you won't do the one thing that can prevent those symptoms. And you will trust your doctors advice on every other thing but vaccinations. Like the rest of their degree is legit but they are somehow misinformed about preventable medicine....

Measles became a nationally notifiable disease in the United States in 1912, meaning that health care providers and laboratories were required to report diagnosed cases. During the first decade of reporting, an average of about 6,000 measles-related deaths were reported annually.

    In the 1950s, researchers found a way to isolate the measles virus in a patient's blood, and in the 1960s, they were successful in transforming the isolated virus into a vaccine. The vaccine was licensed and became part of the measles vaccination program, introduced in 1963.

    My husband's coworker took the extra precaution of staying in a hotel when his daughter got the mumps. If I recall there was some confusion about whether he had been immunized so he decided it was better it be safe, he ended up dying and was only in his late 30's. I don't think many people realize these diseases can be fatal.

    The flu vaccine is the only one I side eye. Years ago I got a flu vaccine for the first time ever and 2 days later I got the flu. I presume it's because my body was never exposed to it before (which would make sense considering that's literally what a vaccine is), but it made me not ever want to get one again. Thank God, knock on wood, I haven't ever had the flu since.

    You would have been incubating it before you got the vaccination. It was just bad timing. You cannot get the flu from a flu vaccine, as it does not contain a live virus, its literally impossible.

    Before the introduction of the measles vaccination program, according to the CDC, there was an estimated 3 to 4 million people getting infected with the disease yearly nationwide. Following this program the numbers of cases and deals from measles substantially dropped. In 1994 there were 963 reported cases, which fell to 508 cases in 1996.

    If you're not familiar with this "delicacy" check YouTube for people trying it. They are not fake-vomiting, I can promise you that. My parents had a "surströmming"-party when I was a child. The adults ate (I'm not sure how much licour they drank beforehand) and us kids tried to find a way to get rid of the stench. We almost burnt down the house in the quest, and had we succeeded, I still think the stench would have lingered for a few weeks...

    100% pro vaccine here, but these statistics are not conclusive either: measles deaths: 1 death in 1000 contractions or 1 death per 1000 population? If the latter: unlikely, due to high vaccination rate, if the first: doesn't compare to the vaccination figure because many more people get vaccined than contract measles.

    It simply needs to made a federal requirement. Right before the internet really took off, measles was declared eradicated. All of a sudden, all common sense went out the window and people put their faith in web sites. Because they don't just give anyone a web site, right? They must be qualified and print nothing but the truth.

    Jump forward to 2000, when the disease was declared eliminated in the U.S and there were only 86 reported cases. This meant there had been no continuous transmission of the disease for over 12 months. These numbers only continued to plummet until a resurgence in 2014 where the country experienced 23 separate outbreaks, which occurred primarily among the unvaccinated Amish community.

    In 2018 the U.S saw 17 separate outbreaks and the numbers continue to climb. According to the CDC, the disease was largely imported and spread among unvaccinated pockets: "Eighty-two people brought measles to the U.S. from other countries in 2018. This is the greatest number of imported cases since measles was eliminated from the U.S. in 2000."

    My ex-husband believes that vaccines are bad for vegetarians and vegans. So, after our twins had all their vaccines, I put our younger children's vaccines on halt til they were a bit older. He was determined for them to not be vaxx'd, especially because of the "autism" connection. Laughs on him - I'm ASD, and three out of our four girls are also. Nothing to do with vaccines, as #3 kid was dx'd before she had any immunizations. And they're amazeballs kids.

    I saw on r/askreddit recently for "People who were blocked by famous people on twitter, what got you blocked?" One person wrote that they were following Jenny McCarthy, and she asked everyone what they look for in romantic partners. The OP wrote "Someone who believes in vaccines." Aaand blocked.

    In a graveyard near where I live, there's a plot with eight children who died in the same year, probably because of a disease like measles. If I could resurrect the parents, they would hopefully beat all the karens up for refusing something which could have saved their family.

    My ex-husband believes that vaccines are bad for vegetarians and vegans. So, after our twins had all their vaccines, I put our younger children's vaccines on halt til they were a bit older. He was determined for them to not be vaxx'd, especially because of the "autism" connection. Laughs on him - I'm ASD, and three out of our four girls are also. Nothing to do with vaccines, as #3 kid was dx'd before she had any immunizations. And they're amazeballs kids.

    My twins have Asperger's and I have never thought vaccines caused their autism but even if I did I would have them inoculated anyway because 2 kids with autism is better than 2 dead kids. They are two amazing young men who are funny (especially once we taught them the concept of sarcasm which was tough for them to grasp), whip smart and polite. Most people would just assume they were shy and never know the difference. No one knows what causes autism and I think it's a gigantic leap to point to vaccines and say that's the cause. Maybe it was the stressful pregnancy, or the high fever I had, or maybe it's related to Uncle M. who was too old to ever be thought of as autistic but looking back, probably was. But it's just make the wild assertion that it's due to vaccines with 0 proof.

    I read a personal story by a doctor about their experience with an anti-Vaxxer. They explained everything behind vaccines to try and convince the anti-v — including the risks of spreading disease to kids with cancer and such — and they (the anti) said “I don’t care about a kid with cancer. That’s not my problem if they get sick.” Some believe they’re doing the best for their children, but others don’t mind hurting others. It’s absolutely wild.

    My parents were both heavy smokers and I've always wondered if that exposure over all those years will come back to haunt me. At least once my kids were born my mom would step outside to smoke. Both parents ended up dying from smoking related illnesses. Why anyone picks up a cigarette in 2019 with the wealth of information out there on the subject is beyond me. It's not cool, it's gross and it's pretty much guaranteed to kill you. It also does nothing for your looks.

    My partner and I have 33 years between us. We had our son vax'd not after birth, but when he turned one. He and I had been through a traumatic c-section, and we thought we'd wait. My partner has experienced knowing first hand, friends who grew up with with polio, and the horrible outcome for them. My uncle dies at 2 & 1/2 from tetanus. I have a daughter who was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, BEFORE she had any vaccinations. I also have another dx'd ASD who was vaccinated early. I suppose having an ASD mother (me) was the actual contribution. My younger two children have no issues, except one is a brilliant animator, and the other loves to sing, dance, and sweet talk the girls (he's 6). Vaccinations have only help guard them. No causation of anything harmful. I still don't "get" parents who continue to find the most absurd un-founded internet waffle and believe it to be better than keeping their progeny alive to fulfill their own dreams and lives.

    One of the main problems in this country is that we are suffering through a holocaust of ignorance. Starting in the White House, but there are outbreaks everywhere.
