    Right. But again--nuance. I would take polio shot but not oral polio vaccine (now pulled off market in US for safety reasons since it occasionally gives the patient polio). Some vaccines are better, safer, work better, more necessary, etc...I would not advocate taking unsafe orhttps://twitter.com/wernet/status/937463454029500417 …

    We do not disagree about that. But, vaccines are very cost-effective. Would I take one if the benefit was minimal, no. But I would, have have p, taken them to avoid polio, etc.

        Did anyone see the picture of the family holding up signs starting with the Grandmother who had 2 vaccinations in a lifetime, and ending with the Grand daughter who held up the sign saying over 200 vaccinations? When is too much enough? The side affects between all vaccinations??

        I’m old enough to remember life before polio vaccine, flue vaccine lately has been hit or miss and once we wer told it wouldn’t effect the current strain. For the past 8 or 9 years I have foregone the shot. I am healthy and active which may help.

        Tragically, for many years the government strongly favored the oral vaccine over Salk’s due to personal connections with Sabin. See: https://www.amazon.com/Jonas-Salk-Charlotte-DeCroes-Jacobs/dp/0190679166/ref=mt_paperback?_encoding=UTF8&me= …

        I think children are given too many at one time. WE have diseases being brought back in by 3rd world illegals that were gone from the US. Now we have to vaccinate against them.

        The oral polio vaccine also created a health risk to the elderly who may never have received the vaccine and/or may have compromised immunity

        As a Pharmacist I can tell EVERY time you take any drug there is a risk- benefit risk you must consider. You are playing the odds, like driving a car. Drugs save many, many lives obviously
