Thank you for vaccinating your family to protect society from the diptherea, cholera, polio, etc. raging through our nation.
Cuz that's what the vaccinations are for, to protect others from the little disease vectors, ...in mommie's arm; down at the local open air grocery market; next to the open-air garbage pits and sewers harboring all those 19th century epidemic diseases ...most of which only exist in textbooks nowadays.
Do the math:
Probabability of contracting dipthera, cholera, polio, smallpox, etc.: ~ <0.001%.
Probability of SIDS, brain damage, damaged immune system, ADHD, etc. ~ >5%.

Hey medical and mathematical genius! You just proved my point! Vaccines are the REASON why the probability of contracting those diseases are so low! Stop vaccinating and watch those diseases come back with a vengeance.
I really used to believe the intellect on this forum was of a higher caliber than DU but these days I’m not so sure...

I believe Google has a text to speech application if you need these articles to be read to you.
Huh? Please show the math.
