#i2 Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP) response to Prof Cooper & Prof Brian Morris calls for infant circumcision in Australia (RACP Chairman Prof Forbes stated circumcision causes morbidity & mortality in children) http://mondofown.blogspot.com/2018/06/racp-medical-journal-of-australia.html … … … …
Actually, circumcision causes far more children to remain alive. In fact, the occurrence of ANY type of complication (very minor in most cases) is low; at a rate ranging from 0.19%-3.1%. (North American Journal of Medical Sciences)

#i2 Actually If you look at the science from Australia, since circumcision ended in the 1970's Australian children have become healthier with fewer health problems and lower infant mortality, if what you said were true the health data would be opposite to what it is? u r debunked -
Hey smarty pants. Infant mortality rates have gone down everywhere and it has to do with better medicines, technology, and doctors. But nice try flipping numbers to support your agenda. We’re still circumcising boys. Debunked your bunk with facts!

#i2 you are correct medicines technology and doctors have advanced to the point the primitive painful and barbaric practice of infant circumcision is now obsolete and no longer required for child health . At least we agree on something. -
How do you feel about childhood vaccinations?
-
#i2 As a medical scientist = epidemiological proof is overwhelming that vaccines are effective in preventing disease, unfortunately a small minority of children have serious adverse effects. RACP said to call circumcision a surgical vaccine was a recipe for public health disaster -
Siding for or against circumcision is dangerous for government agencies considering the religious connotation. They realize the benefits of circ as a proactive measure just like vaccines as it’s in all their literatures.
-
#i2 You R again correct that govt agencies appease religious & cultural communities when making medical policies therefore diluting medical science and it has been stated by RACP to make the claim circumcision is akin to a surgical vaccine is a recipe for a public health disaster

False, rate of complications is over 1 in 10 http://spuonline.org/abstracts/2018/P21.cgi … And that's not even counting the loss of the most sensitive parts of the penis as a complication. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17378847 http://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/2017/08/msoc2-1708.html …
