This is an issue that gets me quite riled up. Glad to always see more press about it. Re: Health authorities now admit severe flu shot reactions.

Date: March 26, 2012 01:52PM I think it was on Friday, on one of PBS's news shows, they were doing a report about disinformation and how it is disseminated. As a cynic, I wrily noted the inevitability of their using anti-vaccination movements as a case in point. The report featured a case worker from the Health Services of North Carolina meeting with the local vaccine averse moms of Asheville, and talking to them about why they weren't vaccinating their children. They were all earnest, and the conversation was civil, but when the HS worker asked the mothers whether they weren't worried about other people's children being around their unvaccinated children, they all admitted sorrowfully that this is a dilemma they "wrestle" with. Not one of those women thought to ask, simply, "If everyone else's children are vaccinated, and the vaccines are truly efficacious, how can my unvaccinated child possibly be an infection risk to them, hmmmm? Answer me that, please." It really is that simple. Logic, how the heck does it work?
Ironically, the link you post, coco, serves as a much better illustration of disinformation and how it is disseminated. To in any way consider the nonvaccinators of Asheville, N.C. as a comparable threat to public health compared to insidious, global, politically abetted drug marketing campaigns for unnecessary vaccination, is ridiculous. And I will go so far as to say a threat to Reason itself. Re: Health authorities now admit severe flu shot reactions.

Date: March 26, 2012 02:13PM Someone from my past that I was briefly reconnected to online went into a yearly furor about people not getting the flu vaccine because we all then put his elderly parents at risk. In his opinion I was dangerously lax in my societal duties by NOT injecting myself and my children yearly for their (his parent's) benefit. Really, this was his vehement arguement. You can imagine where I told him he could shove that... Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
