as long as they get what they feel is their due in the fame department.

It's not just him or Wakefield, it's also the false sense of security a lot of people have because decades of vaccination almst had that particular disease gone. We were so close, but it allowed them to think it was safe to skip the shots, nobody likes to see the kiddies get stuck and cry. So now their kids are getting sick and some of them are getting very sick.

I'm afraid it's human nature, people just stop believing prevention is necessary when it looks like the danger is past. Well, it wasn't and now the disease is back with a vengeance.
