Don't get a flu shot!

Vaccines aren't 100% effective. For that reason, herd immunity requires us all to be vaccinated.

This is very basic science. If only 70% of people are vaccinated, that's basically the same as 0% of people being vaccinated.

I've heard the herd immunity argument before, which is nonsense that parrots say because someone who spoke eloquently on the internet said it once.

What about diseases and viruses becoming resistant? Are we not forcing the most dangerous diseases to mutate into even more dangerous vaccine-resistant super strains? It's the same reason we need to use less antibiotics.

I can't believe I just read that. If you can't see there's a huge difference between antibiotics and the body's immune system ...

Do you even brain?
