Good grief, what's next...advertise on Craigslist for someone with malaria or TB to infect your child?!
Sheeesh, if only there was a vaccine against stupidity!!!

I had chicken pox when I was 7. My husband and his twin brother managed to avoid it as kids (their 7 other siblings got it). Hubby's older brother ended up getting chicken pox in his 40s, from his 2-year old. Hubby got the vaccine a month later, though his PCP made him jump through multiple hoops. You'd think they would know that it's better for a 40+ man to get the chicken pox vaccine than to get the chicken pox.
