Just because the pack follows the one dog who started howling at the moon doesn't mean we should take their warning that the moon is falling seriously.

Like dogs barking at the moon, the anti-vaxxers are driven by fear of what they don't understand, take comfort in belonging to their pack, and revert to protective emotions rather than rational thought.............

Thanks for this, you have whetted my appetite. Until now I have not concerned myself with persons who are against vaccination, I will now do some research into what they are saying.

Our plantation history, the media and social media, the religions, greed, and the slow demise of Public Education, have all contributed. Amazingly, those that need Government the most, be it for health or unemployment, are the first in line asking to de-fund the Government, because their leaders said so. In most other parts of the world, it is exactly the opposite. It helps to dumb down so people can be lorded over, as in feudal times.

You think COVID is an inconvenience, imagine a world with no vaccines. Smallpox, measles, polio and other contagious diseases would decimate us.

Looks like I stumbled onto the medical forum, LOL.

I take all my vaccinations but sometimes I am drawn to a point of view more by the vehemence of the people opposed to it than by those proposing.

I raised all of my children vaccine free.

Your post-facto misguided virtue signalling is duly noted!

But you forgot to mention if they are gluten-free and were not genetically modified.

Not one has come down with anything other than the common cold or flu. And that was very far and few between. I used all available means to avoid giving that poison to my children. All are fine healthy adults. Of course we didn't have the volume of drugs they hit them' with today. Fact is fellows, if you want it, take it, if you don't, don't. Great exchange of information and let's get back to mongering.

Oh, as for going to school I commonly used the religious angle to prevent them for obtaining vaccines. Sure they had a couple, like smallpox, tetanus and polio but none of the rest. Those are proven pretty safe in my opinion but none of the rest.

Peace,

But you proudly said you raised your children vaccine free?

But they diid get "Smallpox, tetanus and polio vaccines?

At least you did that right.

[Turgid]

Exactly. These anti-vaxxers are cretins of highest order.

Shirley you can't be serious?

Who do you think the "they" are who are having a bit of fun with "social engineering"? The Illuminati, George Soros, Bill Gates? And "they" have organized all this with thousands of Doctors (sworn to secrecy- pinky swear!) in a secret conspiracy to interfere with you?

By your logic, you should only take a vaccine that you developed.

Exactly. These anti-vaxxers are cretins of highest order.

I raised all of my children vaccine free...Peace.

Thank you. I understand. Your children are your prerogative. My children did not attend public schools but fortunately I live in MA, where vaccine exemptions are very low even in public schools. My graduate degree does not qualify me to comment on ethical issues of vaccines nor for that matter the biology of it but generally I believe the doctors are sensible, intelligent and rational creatures. I also believe in the empirical veracity of science and I am thankful for the likes of Edward Jenner or Alexander Flemming!

I would suggest you read the Book of Job. .

Peace,

Have done that. Now that is comical.

A Brazilian friend sent this today. He teaches Physical Sciences, in a college there.

I could not stop laughing reading the ending comments even though the subject is not exactly that funny.

I studied Chem and Math during my undergrad years so all your erudite references to Biology went over my head. Having said that, I do have to wonder though. I thought children in the US are supposed to be vaccinated against a boat load of stuff before they are allowed to attend a public (and Private) school. So the posters here, surprised that others have been vaccinated, never went to school? That may explain such questions.

If someone comes to Pulaskie West Virginia from Chile.... they are doing it doggy style!

But why would I, in the first place?

Because you (referring to the militant anti-vaxxers-not you) are smarter than Doctors, know about The Conspiracy and are not a "Yes Man".

You have to learn every lesson for yourself. You need to get infected and sick (with everything a vaccine could have prevented) to get your immunity the "organic" way.

What I find most funny about these anti-vaxxers, organic, vegan gluten-free types is that they often feel the need to brand themselves with tattoos. They go to some storefront and pay thousands to have someone administer ten thousand injections of heavy metals, pigments of unknown types and sources INJECTED into the largest organ of their body. Their skin. Permanently!

I have two questions for folks who take vaccines. 1. Do they really work?

Yes.

2. Why do we still have the flu every year with ongoing vaccinations?

Because the hundreds of Influenza A and be viruses move around the country and world all the time. They also change and evolve. They can change in two different ways—antigenic drift and antigenic shift.

The vaccine combinations try to forecast what virus might hit the particular area and formulate that year's combo-vaccine. If someone comes to Pulaskie West Virginia from Chile and infects someone with an influenza virus from Chile that was not expected in Pulaskie, then that vaccinated person gets a flu variant from Chile. If he passes it onto his sister during coitus, then it is likely their cousins will get it too. Unless they are doing it doggy style!
