Edit: Un-Vax Kids Are Time Bombs

A child should never be a biological weapon. But thanks to conspiracy theorists mingling in the Internet’s dark corners, that’s exactly what happened last month at Disneyland. As of Monday, 102 cases of measles — a highly contagious respiratory disease — had been confirmed in 11 states, including Utah, Oregon and Washington, all stemming from one sick kid at an amusement park, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. Idaho hasn’t had confirmed cases, the South Central Public Health District reports. But it may be only a matter of time. Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter told the Times-News editorial board late last year that he presides over the state with the most “black helicopter sightings per capita.” Idahoans are naturally skeptical of big government, and that has translated into the nation’s lowest vaccination rate among school-aged children/Opinion Editor Jon Alexander , Twin Falls Times News.

Question: Why do you think Idaho has the nation’s lowest vaccination rate among school-aged children?
