Vaccination sense

[Scimitar]

I've been saying this for years - in exactly these terms.
(warning - for those of a nervous disposition, there is some cursing involved, just like real life and not in your cosy little bubble).

This useless piece of crap software won't display the youtube link. What kind of rubbish is this?

Nope, that doesn't work either.
Hovering the mouse pointer on the displayed line brings up a link but it does nothing else.

I'm not really for or against tbh. When I used to work in a school I guess I was in the for camp as a parent asked me and I said "all the other kids will be and it's perfectly safe, your kid will just feel left out".

The stuff about life threatening dangers is a load of bull. Many of them stem from back in the days when medical practices hadn't been as hygenic or understood, for example lots of the stuff about vaccines in africa spreading/giving x y and z all comes from shared needles and other poor administration techniques. They also used to use small amounts of live diseases which sometimes the person would then catch instead of fight off effectively, now they use synthetic or dead disease cells or whatever and you could safely drink the stuff they inject(tho it will taste horrible and you might get the runs or something) but you won't catch anything deadly from it.

Apropos of this, here's something from Facebook...

"In about 1983 I dropped in to see a friend of a friend and was sitting having a cup of tea when I noticed her baby was making a peculiar coughing noise. It turned out to be whooping cough, but I'd never heard it before, so rare had it become by that time.
She didn't recognise it either, and nobody else did in her family. Who knows what vector brought in in, but 30 years ago it was pretty unusual, in stark contrast to a few decades before, when anyone and his dog would have known the sound right away.
I suspect the reason her baby caught it was because she was an early non-vaccinator, by listening to the rubbish spouted by some of her science-suspicious friends, who were at that time starting to make inroads into areas of previously-held common sense and sow seeds of mistrust in the minds of many about things that had been proven to work, and work well, for many decades.

I've got no time for those people, not any more, and now don't count any of them among my friends, so much damage have they caused with their good-intentioned whining and moaning and paranoid baseless suspicion.
Baby - bathwater - you know the rest."

I agree. We had a measles epidemic in Swansea last winter because of these fools. One man died.

I had whooping cough last year. Three months of lung ripping coughing and extreme fatigue that I wouldn't wish on anyone, nevermind a small child and their parents.

It is nothing like any cough you've ever experienced.

I can quote yours ok, but not enter a fresh one - mine still gets caught up with the media brackets.
