Recently, one of the lead health stories has been the outbreaks of measles. Statistically, as broadcast on network television, 95 percent of those inflicted have not been vaccinated. What is the big surprise?
Measles, polio and smallpox were almost globally eradicated because of vaccinations, Unfortunately, anti-vaxxers are reversing this result. Whether you are a Democrat or Republican, liberal or conservation, there is no downside to vaccination. One flawed study in the United Kingdom linked vaccination to autism and has since been dunked by almost all doctors and health institutes.
Robert Kennedy Jr. has a great tan but is neither a doctor nor an epidemiologist. Encourage vaccinations, particularly for children, and allow health professional input in such decisions.
