I just don't get these parents who think they are smarter than the smartest doctors in the world. Selfish fricken idiots who put others' children at risk as well as their own.

Well, there are actually still people who claim the earth is flat. Our government is sending 300, 000. worth of homeopathic medicine to Honduras., would you believe, to fight Chagas disease. Get out of the Western world and superstition is still an important fact of life, apparently here as well.

Just a question, if vaccines are safe and beneficial, how come Canadians can't bring class action suits against vaccine manufacturers? Worth thinking about is it not, or should I compromise my health for your/societies sake?

And what might that lawsuit entail? Prevention of disease? Sore arm a flu-like symptoms for a day or two? The one person in a million who has an allergic reaction to a vaccine component?

Sounds like a conspiracy theorist, not a physician to me.

1. Lawyers won’t take it?
2. The case is clearly superfluous and vexatious. Which if found out... get thrown out..?


Just guessin.

I'd tell you where to stick that opinion, but I've been suspended for less.
I was born in 82, for the record.

Its not just Millenials falling for the charlatans pressing the anti-vaxx philosophies, my own mother has fallen for it and she's in her 70's. I'll often comment on her anti-vaxx Facebook shares where I'll thank her for having myself and my 4 siblings vaccinated and leave it at that. (Her offspring being born from the late 1960's through to the mid 1980's). She's fallen down the rabbit hole with many online conspiracies, apparently Soros controls everything, its quite sad. Kept off of certain topics she's great though, but its troubling.

I don’t think we should be downplaying the risk of an adverse reaction with these vaccines. It’s still a medical procedure where your injecting a substance into your body and could have complications. People seem to forget that. FTR both my kids are vaccinated. Although our youngest had a severe reaction to her first shots. We were lucky and found her with a 40 degree temperature. We quickly got her cooled down and gave her Advil. If we hadn’t found her it’s tough to say what would have happened. Just something to think about. It’s my opinion she had the reaction because she received 3 or 4 different vaccines on the same day. If I were to do it again I’d want the nurse to spread them out on the first set.
