VACCINATIONS: 'Most vaccines are not 100 percent effective'.
Vaccination are supposed to immunize a child entering kindergarten from communicable diseases. That means the child is protected from the diseases that might come from some child that did not get vaccinated. Does that make sense? You would think so.
So, how do you justify this statement by Susan Buckley, Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services' Public Health Director:
"Exemptions contribute to low vaccination rates, which put all students at risk." [Emphasis added]That would mean getting vaccinated is a waste of time and money if you're still "at risk."
Melinda Whareton, deputy director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the Centers for Disease Control make the most inane and asinine argument for why EVERYONE must be vaccinated:
"Most vaccines are not 100 percent effective. People can still become infected, even if they have been vaccinated, if they are around someone who is not immunized and has the disease."That's a clear cut argument for NOT getting vaccinated if I ever heard one.
This is the typical moronic thinking that a "father knows best" form of government uses to brainwash people into submission. Vaccinations typically make you a little sick, so as to build your resistance to getting really sick. Nothing like filling your body full of crap that makes you sick so that you don't make someone else sick. When I was in school they used to tell us that a hitch in the Army would make us men. That is if you didn't get killed in the process. And a lot of us did too.
Yeah! Good thing for the "herd." Good thing for parents alright. What's next, artificial insemination?
