The anti-vax movement in the US seems to be one of the few issues that’s not particularly partisan. But it’s certainly anti-science. That said, the anti-vaxxers I know in the US and parts of Africa aren’t intentionally ant-science, but they’re leftward parents with a pernicious distaste for “Western medicine”. And I’m all for skepticism of colonialism and for not dismissing traditional non-Western medicine, but that bias has lured a lot of people to buy into the bullshit peddled by these charlatans and everyone’s expense and health.
