Re: Moving Back to US - Would you do it now?

No measles where I am (southern Europe) - the only people who do not vax their children here are the American expats 'seeking refuge' in a country that doesn't force children to be vaccinated to go...

Re: Moving Back to US - Would you do it now?

Re: Moving Back to US - Would you do it now?
