How do you know? Do you see them clearly? They've got a very clear reason for avoiding vaccinations.
The evidence is, their evidence is faulty. That leads to an obvious result; garbage in (fear-mongering anecdotes), garbage out (vaccine phobia).
Telling people they're wrong and stupid is belittling them and doesn't work. The problem needs to attacked at the source. That means, making someone liable for unproven finger-pointing and fear-mongering anecdotes. The government won't censor people and Facebook
In the USA vaccine makers have blanket immunity from lawsuit. You can not sue them due to harm, vaccine makers have no accountability. If you were a profit making corporation with no liability for harm, would you maybe give less of a crap sometimes and maybe use the old familiar trick of adding mercury to boost the vaccine production in some batches? Maybe, who cares if you did? No one can sue you for damages!

You misunderstand the law. It's not that they are immune to lawsuits. The government has assumed the liability.
So you can indeed sue due to vaccine injury. You'll just be suing the government instead of a corporation.
And you don't actually have to sue. The government set up a vaccine injury program where you can file a claim and get paid without a lawsuit. You are still free to sue if you'd like.
Also, the FDA stops a whole lot more vaccines than lawsuits ever could. It's not like there's nothing between the corporation coming up with something and the free market, as you imply. And if you want to claim regulatory capture, you'd have to show some vaccines that would not pass trials yet got released.

Thiomersal is a preservative. It has nothing do do with boosting production rates. It was introduced into vaccines in order to let doctors use one vial to treat multiple patients. Pull out a new, empty syringe, fill it with a dose of vaccine from a vial, give the patient the shot, toss the syringe. The alternative is syringes pre-loaded with vaccine, which cost you a lot more money.
Thiomersal is also ethyl-mercury, which you pee out. Not methyl-mercury that stays in your system. If you want to say something stupid like "it's got mercury so it's all the same!!!" consider ethanol vs methanol. One will get you drunk. One will kill you very quickly. They're almost identical. Ethyl-mercury vs methyl-mercury is similar.
So, congrats on making vaccines cost more. Also at a higher profit to "big pharma". Also, Thiomersal was removed from childhood vaccines in 2000, with no reduction in autism rates, so you did all this for nothing.

Only if the vaccination rate in their country is lower than the vaccination rate in the US.
And since you're making a very obvious dogwhistle, the vaccination rate in Central and South American countries is higher than the US.

This doesn't matter for the MMR vaccine. The different strains on the planet are still covered by the vaccine. You need a high-mutation-rate disease like influenza for strains to be relevant.
If it's working, the diagnostics say it's fine.
