A friend (pro-vac) sent me an article about the measles outbreak that focuses on a family with a young kid (10mos) and a older child with cancer, neither of who can be vacced but who were exposed to measles when they went to a clinic at the same time as someone who had measles.

In that article, a DOCTOR (a cardiologist, but still, a doctor) says this (emphasis mine):
_______________________________________________
But Dr. Jack Wolfson said it's the Jacks family who should keep themselves at home, not him.
Wolfson, an Arizona cardiologist, refuses to vaccinate his two young sons. He said the family that didn't vaccinate and endangered the Jacks children did nothing wrong.
"It's not my responsibility to inject my child with chemicals in order for a child like Maggie to be supposedly healthy," he said. "As far as I'm concerned, it's very likely that her leukemia is from vaccinations in the first place."
"I'm not going to sacrifice the well-being of my child. My child is pure," he added. "It's not my responsibility to be protecting their child."
CNN asked Wolfson if he could live with himself if his unvaccinated child got another child gravely ill.
"I could live with myself easily," he said. "It's an unfortunate thing that people die, but people die. I'm not going to put my child at risk to save another child."
He blamed the Jacks family for taking Maggie to the clinic for care.
"If a child is so vulnerable like that, they shouldn't be going out into society," he said.

I am literally shaking with anger and fury at him. What a total piece of shit.
