Wow. Also, I had thought anti-vaxxers tended to be on the left (at least I read that somewhere). I guess not.

According to Jennifer Reich Sociology Professor at
University of Colorado Denver's study, antivaxers are:
White
College educated
Higher than average income

From what I've experienced, the majority are from the left. A smaller group from the far right that are doing it for religious reasons or paranoid skeptics-
the US never made it to the moon types.

Sounds close to what I've read. I just can't figure out where the "college-educated" part jives with the paranoia about vaccines though.

With children, it is typically a maternal choice to vaccinate. Picture a soccer mom that gets a lot of her
health information from a guy at that corporate health food store. Regarding paranoia, as Steve Martin said he learned just enough in philosophy class to screw him up for the rest of his life.
Ignorance is bliss.
