      The "new" way is probably the old way: if you can't persuade them, use force. Meanwhile, 127+ children are getting robust, lifelong immunity the old way. And how many adverse vaccine reactions have there been? It's a trade-off. Let parents decide.https://twitter.com/AmeshAA/status/1097852042490593280 …

      Parents should be responsible enough to protect their children from preventable diseases that have a potential for serious complications and in rare cases death. Measles out breaks are pointing out the importance of herd immunity. Is 1/1000 death ok to prevent 1/1,000,000 neg rxn

      Replying to @rlamartini

      The numbers are not precisely known, and the calculation is (1/1000?) x risk of getting measles (1 in a million??) compared with (risk of serious vaccine reaction) x (number of children vaccinated). Second may be >> first. Answer varies depending on many factors.

      I wonder how they manage to keep the incidence of measles so low. Is there some sort of vaccine?

      Smallpox vaccine too dangerous to use now because disease gone. Measles virtually gone in US--need vigilance, but risk still very low. Let people decide based on current circumstances and honest info about vaccine, which NOW kills more people than measles.

          You’re a doctor. You’re supposed to have at least a minimum working knowledge of statistics and epidemiology. More is expected from you than from lay antivaxxers.

          Doctors are supposed to think for themselves and not parrot conflicted sources: force people to take our vaccines or millions will die of measles.

          The reason those statistics are possibly correct is that measles is nearly eradicated and would rapidly turn around if a significant outbreak of measles would occur which is almost certain if vaccination rates drop further.

          Yes. In Vict, Aust, all recent cases of measles in returning travellers. Here-95% child vax rate-no outbreaks in years. Polio vax we switched to IM when rates so low oral vax risks unacceptable. Science. Smallpox here in secure site too in case...And HPV vax uptake great - Go Oz!

          This is a lady that heads an association of "physicians" who believe HIV doesn't cause AIDS, thinks being gay shortens lifespan, and touts abortions as a risk factor for breast cancer. Why would anyone take anything she says seriously?

          'Frequency'? Do you mean incidence or prevalence? Do you even know what those words mean and how to interpret them?

          We keep asking your ilk to provide us with just one medically confirmed case of a death from vaccines in this century, yet not a one of you has done so. Your claim of over 100 MMR deaths is completely bogus.

          Indeed. I keep telling her "Citation(s) required." Not surprisingly, she never provides even one.
