Why did these people even bother to take their unvaccinated child in to the hospital when he developed tetanus?

Tetanus is one of the most horrifying preventable diseases on this earth. Everyone has experienced a muscle cramp, spasm or “charlie horse” one time or another in their lives and is well aware of the indescribable pain that comes with it. Now imagine every single muscle in your body doing this for weeks, sometimes with enough force to fracture bone and pull tendons from their origins. In addition to all of this, without modern medical interventions, your diaphragm, like the rest of your muscles will fail to relax and you will suffocate to death.

I mention this because the CDC has just released a case study of the first pediatric case of Tetanus in over 30 years in the united states (link below). This case study describes in detail how a child was forced to endure the same hell described above for 57 days because his parents refused to protect him from this nightmare by simply vaccinating him. This child sustained a simple laceration to the forehead and because of his parents delusions, almost died one of the most miserable deaths imaginable. After 57 days (and $800,000 in medical bills), when offered a TDap booster and other vaccinations, the parents again refused. Why are parents that starve their children to death sent to prison but parents that continually fail to protect their children from these horrifying fates are allowed to continue to place their children in harm’s way? ~ A Facebook person named Drew Matthews wrote this Or so he says.

And why aren’t unvaccinated children removed from the home like they would remove any other abused and neglected child?
