Do they not clue themselves in when they all suggest completely different solution?
There are just so many solutions

Antivax: The official Doomsday Cult of Mumsnet.
What is funny is their remedies would only have had an effect if it was done right away. Still wouldn’t have treated tetanus, but as far as wound management some of that does something.
Homeopaths are derrainged and do more harm than good with traditional medicine.
Not vaccinating your children is child abuse
Facebook should be sued for this kid’s early death.
Amen.
I once knew a homeopath who tried to kill himself.
He took a massive underdose.
I can’t tell if this is an actual story or a Mitch Hedberg style joke.
Christ, I hope this is a troll.
Well, this happened to a 6-year-old. It’s rough reading:
His opisthotonus worsened, and he developed autonomic instability (hypertension, tachycardia, and body temperatures of 97.0°F–104.9°F [36.1°C–40.5°C]). He was treated with multiple continuous intravenous medication infusions to control his pain and blood pressure, and with neuromuscular blockade to manage his muscle spasms. A tracheostomy was placed on hospital day 5 for prolonged ventilator support. Starting on hospital day 35, the patient tolerated a 5-day wean from neuromuscular blockade. On day 44, his ventilator support was discontinued, and he tolerated sips of clear liquids. On day 47, he was transferred to the intermediate care unit. Three days later, he walked 20 feet with assistance. On day 54, his tracheostomy was removed, and 3 days later, he was transferred to a rehabilitation center for 17 days.
The boy required 57 days of inpatient acute care, including 47 days in the intensive care unit. The inpatient charges totaled $811,929 (excluding air transportation, inpatient rehabilitation, and ambulatory follow-up costs). One month after inpatient rehabilitation, he returned to all normal activities, including running and bicycling. Despite extensive review of the risks and benefits of tetanus vaccination by physicians, the family declined the second dose of DTaP and any other recommended immunizations.

God fucking damn it how the fuck are people this dumb?!
This isn’t dumb. This is psychotic.
I feel like the family should be liable, and the child taken to a family that’s not dangerously stupid.
I am upset. I hope insurance denied their claim.
Honestly, if a health insurance provider finds out you’re antivax, they should have every right to drop you as a customer. It’s just too much risk on the insurance company’s part.
Or hell, the insurance companies could start tracking outbreaks to sue the antivaxers for damages. Because the antivaxers are intentionally putting others in harms way, which is increasing costs to the insurance companies.
I’m surprised nobody suggested that he sleep with an onion in his sock.
Tiger balm on penis will cure anything. Prove me wrong.
