Of course views all mine. All without prejudice. Just a regular chap after all. Oh...and RT's may equally imply ridicule as endorsement.

      Cochrane has some questions to answer over its recent HPV vaccine review it seems, but they've always struck me as relatively objective in reviewing the studies they can see. Even that poses questions re some NHS recommendations, let alone what unpublished studies might also add.

      That somebody with COPD for example has cause to avoid catching the flu is obvious. Whether or not the flu vaccine will help them achieve that is an entirely other question. One to which we have no scientific answer. Just 6 selectively published studies, from 14+ years ago.

      Is it just flu vaccine that you have issue with? How do feel about, say, polio or smallpox vaccinations? Do you think they are effective?

      Not at all. My concerns about lack of scientific underpinnings extend across the range of pharmaceutical interventions. Not limited to vaccines, but the flu jab is a regular discussion point for obvious reasons.

      Correct me if I’m being dim but my understanding of your answer is that you don’t believe in the efficacy of smallpox and polio vaccines. Can you elaborate please

      Eh? That's a bit of a leap. Some things prove their worth by virtue of their performance in the subsequent 'big trial' - public release. Other don't. Vioxx springs to mind.http://www.theweek.co.uk/us/46535/when-half-million-americans-died-and-nobody-noticed …

      Appreciated. The point's not really mine but the author's. It's not an area I've personally researched. I just draw attention to the fact that questions are being asked. I presume only the vaccine can cause VDPV, even if it is also held up as the solution? My overall point stands

      And is your overall point that you don’t believe that vaccination has made any improvement to public health?

      What? I think you're just being purposefully antagonistic now. Read back if you want to gain a better grasp of my overall point.

          I apologise if I’m coming across that way. I’m just curious to know your views on vaccinations

          My view is that medical science is an oxymoron when it comes to clinical trials and vaccines are as much exposed to being affected by that as any other drug.

          All of it for starters. Registration of trials has been mandated, but enforcement of publication to go with it is clearly still lacking. But more needs to be done on top of that for me. Preventing outcome switching, more replication work etc. would also improve matters, imho.
