    Antivaxxers do love their Nirvana fallacy, don’t they? Basically, to them, if a vaccine is not 100% effective and absolutely without risk, it’s worthless, dangerous crap, not to be used.https://twitter.com/WFKARS/status/1211081561057177600 …

    I’m just really really not here for blatant fallacies like “this thing doesn’t protect against all possible dangers/isn’t 100% effective, so clearly we should just reconsider using it altogether”

        As compared to the pathogen, which is either laughably innocuous, or mysteriously beneficial

        Potheads do this too. They read the PI sheet of a med, look at the AE list, and conclude it's too "toxic" to ever be used for anyone, ever. Then point to a test-tube study and proclaim proof that cannabis cures /everything/! Ditto with ketovangelists and vegans.

        Sorry, but majority of "injuries" reported by anti-vaxxers (they are not ex-vaxxers) are fake, made up, and outright lies. Ive seen Down Syndrome claimed as a vaccine injury because the mother was vaccinated as a kid.

        At what percentage/ratio of injury and death would you then reconsider recommending vaccination? And What do you believe to be the current rate of vaccine induced injury and death?
