Anti-Vaxxers are targeting South Auckland families in their latest bid to spread the virus of ignorance. You can help needle the pricks. The Standard shows you how. UPDATE: The billboard is coming …

Good on them for bringing it up, I liked the anti vaxx bingo game too.Read the comments though, a few pro disease loons came out of hiding. I think the poster called colonial viper must be banned again , usually he goes into full pro disease rant mode when the subject comes up.
This is who he is in real life, a fuckwit chiropractor called Tat Loo

how about a Fern business venture? There must be some gullible people with some money left somewhere, surely?

Last time there was a vaccination campaign the misinformation from the pro disease crowd was something to behold. Stories about schools having to set aside rooms for kids who were having bad reactions etc , I mean what’s the big deal? You have to wonder about the mindset of someone who’d risk their kid being a quadruple amputee to prove a point

@canefan That would put those fuckers in their place. No vaxx means no big pharma means life back in the 1700s
Sadly some of those morons would think that was fantastic - "natural, chemical free, organic", right up until bleak reality set in....
Can I have the honour of debunking the average lifespan myth?
We've always lived till 60 and 70. Infant mortality skews average life expectancy rates.
A popular global misconception

In the era that cartoon is set, 30 is closer to the mark even excluding infant mortality:
Based on Early and Middle Bronze Age data, total life expectancy at 15 would be 28–36 years
Though this is quite interesting:
Based on Neolithic and Bronze Age data, the total life expectancy at 15 would not exceed 34 years.[14] Based on the data from modern hunter-gatherer populations, it is estimated that at 15, life expectancy was an additional 39 years (total 54), with a 0.60 probability of reaching 15.

Clearly high infant mortality does have an effect but the latest research suggests that this has been overstated.

Life Expectancy
People are living longer across the world, but large differences remain. Explore global data on life expectancy and how it has changed over time.
Here is the relevant section
"Yes, the decline of child mortality matters a lot for the increase of life expectancy. But as this chart below shows, there is much more to it.
Child mortality is defined as the number of children dying before their 5th birthday. To see how life expectancy has improved without taking child mortality into account we therefore have to look at the prospects of a child who just survived their 5th birthday: in 1841 a 5-year old could expect to live 55 years. Today a 5-year old can expect to live 82 years. An increase of 27 years.
At higher ages mortality patterns have also changed. A 50-year old could once expect to live an additional twenty years. Today the life expectancy of a 50-year old has increased to an additional 33 years.".

@siam The average life expectancy is over 50 if you survive past 5 is a more precise way point making your point.
Overall life expectancy at birth was <50 in much of Africa and Asia as recently as 1950. In fact even if you were to make it to 10 you could only expect to make it to 55 in China if you were born in 1950.
Given that the world was a much more challenging environment for the hunter gatherers I don't think it's far fetched to believe their life expectancy would have been less than a Chinaman born 58 years ago.
There is also the wealth factor to consider (& still is today). Any reading of history confirms that plenty of patrician Roman's lived into their 80's but the same wouldn't have been true for a prole.
