A mother from South Carolina grew up in an anti-vaccination environment due to a childhood vaccine reaction. Influenced by her upbringing and anti-vax misinformation, she initially hesitated about vaccines. However, over time, especially after having children, she began to question her beliefs, sought reliable information, and adapted her views. The COVID-19 pandemic further enhanced her willingness to vaccinate her children, resulting in her sons receiving their measles vaccines.
My parents fell deeper into anti-vax misinformation. Vaccines were always a topic of conversation around me growing up. I was somewhat open to vaccines.
The pandemic solidified my willingness to vaccinate. I started reading books and research about vaccines and could see value in some of them.
