I'd easily go with polio, smallpox and mmr. Virus Flu stuff, more questionable.
So what? GI. means govt issue
I guess that depends on which vaccinations
People resisted the smallpox vaccine in Massachusetts in the 1700s, Cotton Mather encouraged the taking of it.
After realizing those vaccinated were not getting smallpox and those who did not get vaccinated were getting it and dying from it people ran out and got vaccinated.
Let’s not return to the middle ages people.
The smallpox vaccine hasn’t been given in 30+ years.
Odd how that vaccine was so effective, with fewer than 10% of the world population having been given it, that it obsoleted itself. And no vaccine has been able to do so since, in spite of 90% uptake and closer to 100% in some countries.
If you're in the military, your death resulting from an order is considered an acceptable risk.
Generally speaking, that's not the way things stand with civil law. In fact, avoiding deadly danger is where the whole "civil" thing comes from.
From a risk-reward ratio point of view, I think that makes sense. Same applies to EMS types who spend their nights transporting a lot of terribly sick people people from unwashed countries issuing infected body fluids from every pore. These are high-risk environments—and not only that, those getting the shots are healthy adults—young men, mostly—with robust immune systems.
It's when you extend the high-risk measures to newborn babies and 2-year-olds that the risk-reward thing tilts the other way. They're not spending their days in uncontrolled environments—why treat them as if they were? At the same time, they're smaller, more fragile, and more vulnerable to reactions a bigger, more mature body would shrug off.
When did anti-vaccination hysteria become a conservative dogma?
Wrong. The science is nowhere near settled. Unless you've somehow got better credentials than the doctor in this article, you might want to stop slandering those who legitimately disagree and seek to protect the lives of their children, instead of trying to provoke hysteria.
Placehold. How I hate videos, I read so much faster
Freedom of conscience to make intelligent decisions of what is best for my children by weighing the data has always been dogma of the conservative party.
When pro-VAX Nazis decided to use government enforcers with guns to force the injection of people's bodies with material Monsanto, Obama and Pelosi guarantee is safe.
Good question.
First of all - Anti-Vaxers are NUTS. This is not a conservative POV.
Second, this is hyped up by the liberal press as they somehow manage to ignore the millions of un-vaxed illegals streaming in with thousands in our schools.
Sheesh.
I’m trying to figure this out, too. Unscientific nutcases belong on the left. Vaccinations work, people who don’t vaccinate their kids are abusive parents, case closed, end of subject.
Yea...myself and many other fellow officers did not like forced untested anthrax vaccinations that were known to have horrible side effects. Why would I allow anyone to force this on my baby. Nuts!
When did Monsanto become the enemy of Conservatives? The last time I heard an anti-Monsanto rant it was out of the lips of a full moon-bat.
