How completely dishonest of you. If you don' think that there is big money in vaccinations you are delusional

Novartis has donated $700,000 to the RGA since January 2006, although it has only directly donated $5,000 to Perry's own campaign. In 2009, Perry signed a bill into law mandating meningitis vaccines for all college students, a requirement he expanded again earlier this year.

With the $780 billion global prescription drug market growing at a sluggish 5% a year, many analysts reckon that the vaccine industry, which is forecast to climb 13% annually through 2012, offers the most upside potential.

I have heard this repeatedly... that if you choose to not vaccinate you are ruining the herd. I am sure you have heard the same... no need to play games.
It really isn't explained that well. They say that there could be side effects but only tell you about the most mild of them. It is pretty dishonest especially since the medical industry knows little about the true extent of the adverse effects.
Yes. The benefits to the over all population are clear. That does not mean that vaccines are as safe as people indicate that they are either. Sure... overall more people are saved from vaccines but the problem is the Russian Roulette factor. You might very well be one of the untold millions that never get a disease but because you are pressured into taking a vaccine you end up dying. THAT is the point. The majority doesn't care at all about that and dismisses pretty much everything that might be negative about vaccines. Even you are doing it... "gee, nothing is 100%" and then when somebody points out an adverse reaction either heckling, hatred or dismissal comes out and at the very least, what you said, "
Its exceedingly hard to prove causation in medicine"
I don't have a bias and my anger is at idiots that insist there is nothing wrong with vaccinations even in the face of evidence... I had my daughter vaccinated until she ran into complications and I have read a ton on the subject. If you have as well then you know that there is government backed information that is biased due to profit motivation and that does not include all data and then there is all the other information that is immediately dismissed as fringe and uneducated.
Then keep disrespectful **** like this to yourself...
And if you don't practice medicine then stop dropping off comments like, "in your clinic" because you are attempting to pass yourself off as having more expertise. Go and change the bedding or sell some cough syrup instead.
