This is one topic that, as a mother and a citizen of the world, gets my blood boiling. I'll leave my opinion on the topic at this: correlation does not not not not not equal causation. Most of us with young children didn't have to live through times when these diseases ravaged, deformed, and even killed children. We can rest comfortably on our safe little laurels for now, but I fear a resurgence in diseases that have almost been eradicated if this anti-vax movement keeps momentum. It is irresponsible to our children and our community to refuse inoculations.
