we have been friends for a long time (graduated in 84).

Now, I'm ducking her calls, because I just can't with her anymore. She voted for that orange thing and recently, she called and was really "concerned" that my family is vaccinated. She isn't, none of her kids are, they won't be. Ever.

Yet, they got all the usual vaccines over the years, but this one...

I'm at the point of saying, "fine then die already" to the anti-vaxxers.
