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)

You're like the guy dating two girls at once...Trying to figure out which one will be the "winner". Put yourself out there and pick a team.

I'm picking both.

I think the pro-vacciners are clearly correct, but they overstate their argument.

I think in doing so, they hurt their own cause by giving the other side ammunition, since they can clearly see they are being lied to.

Wow, was that a serious comment from henche? I'm impressed! Yes, agreed. I feel like 90% of active members on this thread are on a similar page.

That you shouldn't believe numbers provided to you by people with an agenda.

If you click the bill board, does it give a source for every death like this web site does? Hmm? Didn't think so. ..

Click around the site abit. I didn't link it here intending to end all argument about vaccines. Those that don't want to be cured will never be convinced.

As one of the links in this link is the current vaccine schedule, I am curious if... Anyone know why no vaccines between ages 5-10? (As 61% of ppl polled here so far don't get flu vax yearly - the current schedule has none for 6 years straight.)

Generally the vaccines are given at the earliest time that it is considered safe and effective in order to prevent the risk of contracting a given disease. Once that is the case, there is no need for further vaccination until the originals start to where off and a booster is needed. Not sure what the connection is with the flu vaccine you reference as we've established they are very different examples.

No, but my billboard people probably do make silly assumptions like assuming that every reported case of someone dying from the flu would have been prevented by the vaccine.

Yep, the states should impose stiff fines on them. Nothing else's working.
