The Russians Never Stop

It is possible to believe the Russians have done quite a bit of disruption in the U.S. by bots and real people pretending to  be somebody they aren't.  But, really they did stories on children's vaccinations?  Yes, they did. 

Both sides of the argument on whether the vaccinations are good or bad for taking with minimal risk.  It turns out the Russians did fund these campaigns and actually got the target audience to reconsider getting them for children.  That led to outbreaks of measles that were difficult to control.  This is the kind of Information War we could do without.  When they go after children, we need some help in finding them so we can do them physical harm.  Sometimes it is enough to just recognize what they are doing so we can be better prepared;  sometimes we want to have retaliation; and, on a few rare cases, we want to hurt someone who does this kind of thing.  This is one of those times.
