Fears about immunization. Where did they come from? The news?
The thing is, without immunization, the USA becomes vulnerable to biological attack.
“The thing is, without immunization, the USA becomes vulnerable to biological attack.”
That’s a different issue.
Being immunized for an attack like that is nothing like being immunized against something like chicken pox. The public is willing to vaccinate against serious illnesses in the event of an attack but the real issue is that there is a lot of money to be made off of vaccines.
Vaccines are oversold in this country. The effectiveness of most of them is not nearly what people expect, and the immunity conferred by most of them wears off after a few years (even for ones that don’t have boosters).
A better way to effectively vaccinate would be to do a blood test to see if someone has developed antibodies as would be expected. This would tailor the dose to each individual instead of the same dosage for a 120-lb. woman and a 250-lb man.
