www.nbcnews.com
Forty states saw rises in parents citing religious or other personal concerns for not vaccinating their young children.

This is for mmr, dtap, polio and var vaccines. Vaccination rates for children are below 95% for the first time in a decade also.

Ten states have exemption rates of over 5%. Idaho has like 12% exemption rates. Very cool.

    Everyone always makes fun of the South, but I feel like Idaho does not get nearly enough hate for being just as much of a reactionary, fascist hellhole. Idaho will usher in American fascism.

      Growing up in Utah I always tell people the same thing about Idaho. The bottom half is all hardcore Mormons who are insane and would instantly turn on any non-Mormons when the time comes. The top half of Idaho is full of Nazi’s and has been for a long time.
