Anti-vaxxers are using “predatory” tactics to seize on community distrust in health services and the result is children are dying from an entirely preventable disease.

is a sign of the expansion of an increasingly predatory anti-vaccination movement, medical experts have warned.

“We’re going to see them continue this predatory behaviour, identifying communities, island nations even whole countries in order to drive down vaccination coverage so it’s a very serious threat now to global public health.” “Anti-vaxxers arrive in big numbers when there’s concerns and lack of trust and the core of the problem that is happening in Samoa is lack of trust, lack of trust in vaccines in health service delivery,” Dr Nikki Turner told SBS News.

He did not update the post when two nurses were charged with the manslaughter of the improper administration of the vaccines. Even as the death toll rises anti-vaxxers appear undeterred, slamming the government’s compulsory vaccination program and rallying supporters to send vitamin A to combat the disease.Ms Winterstein compared the mass vaccination campaign to Nazi Germany in social media posts which she later amended to remove the reference and continues to recommend vitamin A as treatment.
