They are anti-vaxxers . Anti-vaxxers are not harmless; they threaten and engage in violence while promoting lies that endanger lives. Just like white supremacists, which whom they now ally. We must reject both. #StopAntiVaxViolence

Anti-vaxxers (see sign on right) oppose #science & want #COVID__19 to spread so people will get “naturally” diseased. By not rejecting anti-vaxxers, the lockdown protestors demonstrate a callous disregard for American lives. #coronavirus #StayAtHome #Ivax2protect

I can’t believe 3,769 Americans died of COVID yesterday. That is just a staggering number.

Anti-vaxxers don’t really want or care about “parental choice” or “medical freedom”. They demand the privilege of endangering the health and lives of other people. Denying parents the choice of keeping their children safe from disease is tyranny. #Ivax2protect #VaccinesWork
