There is talk in our social circle that a woman and her kids that are, kind of, in our social circle are anti-vaxers. I have zero interest in my kids being around her kids. I bet her physic told her not to vax.

I heard an interview on CBC last week about a woman who had not vaccinated her kids being told point-blank by someone in her social circle that she was nuts and better get on it. My daughter, among other jobs, takes Children's Aid kids to school. A new kid that she was supervising was not let into school until her foster mom could track down her vaccination certificates from the birth mother. The Ontario gov't is cutting funds to Toronto health which provides "immunization management" among other things.

Ask your school if kids have to be vaccinated before they are let in. That would be good to know. And ask this woman directly if her kids are vaccinated. Measles is coming back and that's not good.
