Can someone explain to me why someone would feel the need to leave an anti vaxx Frum magazine on my porch as well as on the porches of my neighbors?
That is a lot of money to spend on trying to convince complete strangers

Advertisers are interested in distribution figures.

Yeah, they did that in my neighborhood a couple of years ago. There was a big pile-up in the recycle bin.

Because when you are on a life saving mission then everything else flies out the window.

If they are convinced vaccine risk outweighs the benefits, they believe they are doing Chesed.

If you believe they are wrong, read it & send them a rebuttal.

Any names backing it it ?

Ugh! I work in a children's hospital and am so sick of reading '3 year old unvaccinated female" (or the like) in the chart. And it's always a frum patient! 😩

Probably for the same reason why missionaries distribute pamphlets.

Game over, non vax is the trend.

Ugh I hadn't seen that but it's not at all surprising given the number of unvaccinated frum kids we see here

Here's the thing. There are tens on antivaxing sponsors in the frum community. I get lhese free unsolicited "information" home. My teenagers grab if Im not quick enough and read. My boys find in shul. But there are zero pro vaxing sponsors, zero unsolicited brochures about yes vaxing! Because it doesnt occur for us to go spread, for us it's common sense, we ask the pediatrician and he tells us the pros he learnt for years and we agree, and the pediatrician refutes those fake or researches that are out of the real proportion, and we definitely agree and dont want to put our community in risk or gamble. So if you know someone that wants to sponsor a yes vaxing brochure and mailing costs in your in your area, please PM me . I have MDs in my line of work that will gladly help with material. Lets stop this neglect and open eyes of gullible people who are bombarded with one side only of the fake news.

Can you describe the sort of things they’re being admitted for?

I’m not in Lakewood I’m upstate.
There are no ads whatsoever
One of the pages contains letters signed by a handful of litvish rabbanim

All sorts of things. We see the gamut from RSV to rare syndromes. I wasn't implying a direct corellation berween not vaccinating and their reason for admission but rather a corellation between not vaccinating and pockets of the frum (largely chassidish) patients

Are you in south falls burg by any chance?
There is a bungalow colony that has a whole bunch of anti vaxers.
Honestly, most of them are not really working and this keeps them busy. They feel that they are on a mission!

Do doctors add "religious beliefs interfere with medical..." for anti vaxers? I know they write it many times, I wonder if this is due to refusing vax, Anyone knows?
