Facts
The flu vaccine causes more deaths per year than chicken pox.
The direct injection of RSV immunoglobulin, commonly known as the "RSV vaccine" would prevent 16x more deaths than the flu vaccine does, but is too expensive.
There is a vaccine for the plague, and that is why it is no longer an epidemic.
Ebola is caused by vaccines.
There is a vaccine for autism, but it causes mumps.


Opinions
Vaccines do not contain thimerosal, a known toxin.
If you snuck up on your neighbor's kid and cut open his skull, you would be arrested.  But when brain surgeons do it, and charge hundreds of thousands of dollars, it considered "medicine."
99% of vaccines do not cause autism (HT JJ1000).
Every pedi has seen healthy kids become sick physically & mentally hours after a vax (HT Baryochai)
Vaccines cause cancer, infertility, astma, adhd etc (HT Baryochai)

Dumb it down for dummies. I dont think any amount of talking to people who have made up their mind based on crock evidence will do anything. Especially this line of reasoning.

This is not a shtickel gemara where you bring proofs.
He is talking to those who are on the brink.

He is talking to a specific group of misguided people.

I’m guessing it’s to drive home the point that Rav Chaim’s actual position is that vaccination is a Chiluba despite widely publicized quotes from him that schools cannot kick out anti- vaxers.....

+1

For every anti-vaxer, there are another 2 people considering it.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

The elephant in the room is that he didn't disclose what RMK came for and what his position is on the issue. He quotes RMK approval of RT as an admission that RMK has to admit that vax is a chiyuv. Vd"l

Does RMK not have a publicly known opinion?

It is common for him to not make his opinion publicly known on these things which will make him get flak no matter what he says.

It is flat.  Anyone who tells you otherwise is part of a vast conspiracy.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Actually, if a bazillion vaccines are routine despite the anti-vaxxers, and this one is not, it should tell you something about this one.

Most ppl get vaccines--why wouldn't they get this one if their doctor gave it right along with the flu vaccine?

Did you read the article?  This vaccine needs to be administered in three separate doses all over the age of 15.

Ok, so then the reason is that it's annoying?  So not because of anti-vaxxers?

It wasn't covered by all insurance. Means it didn't pass the cost benefit analysis.
The risks of infection were not costly enough to justify the vaccines.
For the same reason it want popular enough to make economic sense to the manufacturer

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/spotlights/reported-flu-children-deaths.htm

The CDC is reporting an additional pediatric flu-related death this week, bringing the total number this season to 172. This number exceeds the 2012-2013 season, which previously set the record for the highest number of flu-related deaths in children reported during a single flu season (excluding pandemics). Approximately 80% of these deaths occurred in children who had not received a flu vaccination this season.
.....
Data this season is similar to what has been previously reported, including in a recent CDC study published in the journal Pediatrics showing that half of flu-related deaths in children from 2010 to 2016 occurred in otherwise healthy children, only 22% of whom were fully vaccinated. The same study also showed antiviral treatment was only given in about half of all pediatric flu deaths. Nearly two-thirds of children died within seven days of developing symptoms. Over one-third died at home or in the emergency department prior to hospital admission.

While flu vaccine can vary in how well it works each season, a CDC study published in Pediatrics in 2017 showed that flu vaccination can be life-saving for children. The study, which looked at data from four flu seasons between 2010 and 2014, found that flu vaccination reduced the risk of flu-associated death by half (51 percent) among children with underlying high-risk medical conditions and by nearly two-thirds (65 percent) among otherwise healthy children.
