My name is Jess. I build and manage servers for both work and fun. I also occasionally make music.

This is a very important distinction. Anti-vaxxers often misrepresent this method of immune system building to justify allowing dangerous infections to spread. It’s like saying:
“Exercise technically damages your muscles so your body builds them back stronger… so I don’t need to take precautions against injuring myself at the gym.”
Most infections are benign, but you should absolutely still get yourself and your children vaccinated against the ones that aren’t.
Gotta throw out that day-old stuff, ya know?
