    Contrary to what antivaxxers claim, influenza can and does kill, and it’s not rare.https://www.wkbw.com/news/local-news/11-year-old-flu-victim-remembered-as-kind-considerate-and-generous …

        And, true to form, antivaxxers are polluting the comments on the station’s Facebook page.😢 https://www.facebook.com/60388086891/posts/10156761315946892/ …

        Antivaxxers are deniers of the real facts. They are more apt to invent them in order to convince themselves of the validity of their theories. Gaps, stupidity, inability to assess the validity of information. And stupidity kills.

        You are right. But your communication is dreadful. As a MD you have no ethical right to public such a Picture. I am horrified but I presume that médical secrecy does not exist in your country.

        The pictures are not Dr. Gorski's. They were published in the news article. They appear to have been provided by the family, since they show this unfortunate & clearly loved young child in what appears to be his home.

        They're saying that getting the vaccine is responsible for the death.

        Even though he was vaccinated, this shows how deadly the flu can be, the incompetence of the doctors he was taken to THREE DAYS IN A ROW, & that even the vaccination is not enough to prevent mutated strains from killing.
