Parents Face Prosecution After 4-Year-Old Daughter Dies of Diphtheria in Italy
In Palermo, Italy, the parents of a 4-year-old girl named Anna Rosa Bartolotta are under investigation for involuntary manslaughter following her death from diphtheria. The child was not vaccinated, despite mandatory vaccination laws in the country. Reports indicate that the family resides in a district where some parents refuse to vaccinate their children due to unfounded beliefs that vaccines cause autism. Following the girl's death, it was discovered that her cousin also tested positive for the disease and required hospitalization. While the parents face legal scrutiny, the mother has publicly criticized the medical care her daughter received, claiming that doctors underestimated the child's condition during multiple emergency room visits.

THIS is why it's mandatory. Because retards will kill their fuckin kids if it isn't. Call it government overreach, but here we fucking are
That's bullshit. Don't get me wrong. Making vaccines mandatory is something we can debate. We can stand on both sides of it. But having them only mandatory in hindsight when it goes wrong and avoiding them perfectly legal if not, that's bullshit. I read in other comments that thi

useless. they must prosecute antivax gurus for fraud
By the parents logic, most of humanity should be autistic. Even them. *sudden pause Maybe they are.
Lets say, just for the sake of discussion that vaccines cause autism, k? As a sidenote, if that was the case we would have a LOT of people with autism, and that's just not the case. However, it seems none of these anti-vaxxers actually deny the life-saving properties of vaccines,
I never knew anyone here in Portugal against vaccination and saying it causes autism until that bullshit started to spread like cancer in social networks mostly by Americans during covid citing a lot of bullshit from Andrew Wakefield and others who had a strong enough platform to
We doubled lifespan with soap and vaccines, just for parents (that got vaccinated as kids) to deny this privilege for their own kids.... Its sad place. People need to be educated in school on the topic just to prevent this nonsense
