Don't get a flu shot!

Ps: in the spirit of open honesty in problems with trials of other vaccines, you should look into the clinical trials of an RSV vaccine in the 1960s. It was an epic flop that resulted in the hospitalization of upwards of 80% of children who received it.

Another example? Approximately 1 in 2.2 million kids who received the live oral polio vaccine would get a post-polio paralysis resulting in permanent disability (usually to a distinct unilateral muscle group vs the classic polio seen with the wild virus). This one is very important to me. I'm one of the vaccine injured. My left quadriceps has been functionless since infancy. I'm one of the 1:2,200,000 to get that documented side effect.

Those aren't bullshit conjecture like Wakefield's crap. Those are well documented and well known. As a guy who will always have to live with a non functional quad, how angry am I? I'm not really angry at all. When you look at the unavoidable statistics on permanent injury from the wild type polio, for each 2.2 million affected you'd have a hell of a lot more severely disabled people ... And some dead to boot.

Now, we no longer use that vaccine in the US. The vaccine was much safer than the illness in question, but medicine has improved and we now use an entirely different vaccine to safely protect against polio. Eventually we will stamp out polio altogether and no longer need the vaccine at all.

Small pox is now extinct outside of 2 known labs thanks to vaccine.
If we're lucky, we'll see polio go extinct in our lifetime.


Concerning vaccines, it's a calculated medical risk. The benefits exponentially outweigh the risks. When they don't (i.e. The RSV) we go back to the drawing board. When they do, we use them but always look for ways to improve.

But please, continue to drone on and on with your Jewish conspiracy theories.
