The World Health Organization (WHO) has listed vaccine hesitancythe delay in acceptance or refusal of vaccines despite their availabilityas one of its top 10 health threats facing the world in 2019.
The phenomenon has taken hold in a number of countries around the world in recent times, and notably in the U.S. as well. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that while coverage of most recommended vaccines remained relatively stable and high in 2017 for American children aged 19 to 35 months, the percentage who have received no vaccinations has quadrupled since 2001.
According to a recent study published in the journal PLOS ONE, increasing numbers of people in many U.S. states now hold anti-vaccination views.
Since 2009, the number of 'philosophical-belief' vaccine non-medical exemptions has risen in 12 of the 18 states that currently allow this policy: Arkansas, Arizona, Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Utah, the PLOS ONE study authors wrote in their paper.
Other countries with notable anti-vax movements include Australia, where around 40,000 children are unvaccinated because of the objections of their parents, and Italy, which introduced new rules in 2018 suspending the mandatory vaccinations that were required for children to be admitted to school.
According to the WHO, humanity has made significant strides in the past few decades when it comes to global health: Life expectancy has increased in many parts of the world, polio is on the verge of eradication and 6 million fewer children under the age of 5 died in 2016, compared with 1990.
But despite these achievements, significant global health problems remain, ranging from the prevalence of deadly noncommunicable diseases to the damaging effects of environmental pollution.

Lord knows the WHO, and other global government bodies, knows what is best for us and would never shade data.
Maybe Bill Gstes could chair this
Oh wait
His kids arent vaxxed
Does anyone know how many flu cases there are currently in the United States?
How many of those flu cases did not have a flu shot?
I pride myself on making the Top Ten on a UN Enemies List.
Patrick Henry would have been an anti-vaxxer.
The better question would be, how many flu vaxxers got the flu?
“His kids arent vaxxed”
There is no proof of that.
How many people got The Autism from the Flu vaccine?
None of the vaccines make you immune. If you get exposed enough, you will get it. That’s what makes anti-vaxxers so dangerous.
Muslims are HUGE anti-vaxxers.
I had the flu, lord knows how many times growing up. I lived through it easily Never had a flu shot till 1999. Because of the flu shot I got the chronic form of GuillainBarré.
I still have it now 20 years later. Unless you have serious problems with influenza, Id suggest NOT getting the vaccine.
And open borders is the first.
“Unless you have serious problems with influenza, Id suggest NOT getting the vaccine.”
As my mom got older and more ill, I found myself getting the flu shot - more for her benefit than mine.
About a year ago, I was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. Luckily, I didn’t need infusion chemo or a bone marrow transplant and they’ve been able to keep me in remission with an oral chemo drug.
But my oncologist told me that each year he’d like me to get the flu shot, pneumonia shot and a shingles shot because I am immune-compromised.
I wonder what they’re putting in those Vaccinations.
Keep your distance from other people,
and never, ever be around kids, bless
their little disease vectors. I follow
those simple rules and haven’t been sick
in thirty years.
Your comment about Bill Gates kids not getting vaccinated prompted me to do a search. Very interesting, especially since Gates is pushing vaccination throughout the world.
One article explained it that the rich want everyone else’s kids vaccinated to create herd immunity (protects their kids indirectly) but don’t want the side affects for their kids.
Interesting
One of the articles I found for that comment sourced it to his former doctor who put forth that info at a symposium. The question of patient confidentiality was brought up but for some reason it was felt not applicable. They didn’t go into the reason, maybe Gates ok’d it.
7 items in a flu shot, one of which is the dead flu virus. The rest are preservatives and enhancers.
To me it's chilling how big pharma CONservatives pimp for the vaccine industry. Vaccines are safe for most but not all. The risks should be freely discussed. There is no doubt in my mind that many would cheer if central government made vaccines mandatory. It's also amazing that not one of these shills have commented on this story & video by Sheryl Atkinson
