Chicken Pox Lollipops?
I am constantly amazed at how crazy some parents can be. Apparently though there is a group of parents who have decided the best way to immunize their children against chicken pox is not be getting a shot, but rather joining a club where parents send chicken pox infected lollipops through the mail to get other kids naturally immune to chicken pox. Seriously? Absolutely. According to KPHO in Phoenix there are multiple Facebook groups now called Find A Pox Party In Your Area. Parents get together and infect their children with children pox. Can't make a party? Don't worry. You can get infect lollipops in the mail delivered right to your house. Never mind that there might be something else besides chicken pox on the lollipop. You know, like hepatitis. Who does this kind of thing?
