You shouldn't associate libertarians w/ people like them honestly, they're giving us a bad name here, but then again this place is so damn liberal it's ridiculous.Too much effort put into the OP for TC to be a troll, so I'll reply: the statistical evidence of diminishing disease incidence as propper vaccination is performed is too overwhelming to be ignored/tied to government policy. Cause x Effect is still one of the most reliable ways to prove something in the realm of science, medicine specially :).

I disagree, a true third party could work, but not any more than that, and most Americans are liberal on rights and conservative on government.

If chemtrails were real, do you not think we all would be dead by now since they only first started showing up during WWII? Plenty of time for the chemicals to wipe out life on the Earth if such was the case.

I guess those vaccines have magical powers that allow them to moved from a sealed container and into the atmosphere so they can infect everyone. If that is the case, why can't we teleport ourselves if scientists have perfected it for liquids?

I am half asleep, you could be right and I misunderstood what you are saying. It just sickens me how stupid people are when it comes to something like that for the reasons why I posted. If some secret entity were spreading chemicals via airplanes at high altitude, nothing would be alive today and this forum would not exist. Once I explained what was really happening to someone who once believed such tripe, he had an awakening.

Yes, that's a good argument for having more than two influential parties. Hell, I'd give a lot just to have our own version of "Questions to the Prime Minster"!

Well I dont know if vaccines are ineffective but I know this: Every year for as long as I can remember, my sister, who is a health / fitness freak gets flu vaccine for herself and her children whereas my children and I do not... And every flu season, my sister and her children each get brutally ill, multiple times over, with flu whereas myself and my children do not... go figure...67gt500
It's not just you. I've never had a flu shot, and I've very rarely gotten the flu. I never got chicken pox, and I've never had measles. This type of stuff is observable everywhere you look, if you look.
Is everyone using vaccine as a shorter way of describing the H1N1 vaccine or are there this many people actually believing that most vaccines don't work? I do agree that the flue vaccine is a joke, but pretty much everyone who had biology at high school realizes that.

Like weedface and bnarmz, you can say this as much as you like, but there is no scientific evidence to back up the statement.

People don't take into account that vaccinations help surb the spread of disease in general, not just in the people who actually get vaccinated. That's why anecdotal evidence like this is insufficient.

Yes! :) This way your immune system builds up Either Antibodies toward it, or T-Memory Cells so that when you get infected the immune system can recognize it right away and say hey I don't like you I want you dead :D I don't feel like being bothered to look into my notes right now and see which one of the two it is :P If I remember right it's the Antibodies that react :P Since the T-Cytotoxic cells don't have any actual microbes to kill :OVaccacines are supposed to make you a little sick in order to lure out a biological response you idiot.

The flu vaccine is different from other vaccines (I can't explain how outside of the fact that flu vaccines are grown on chicken eggs, while other vaccines are made from the actual virii and bacteria of other diseases). The sera used to help build immunities are not normally strong enough to actually make someone sick compared to a full blown infection from the real virus.

From what my Tacher has told me, when they make the vaccine for the flu, since it mutates all the time and has lots of different strands, they put their best guesses as to what this seasons strains may be in there. We couldn't come up with evidence on why people get sick afterward though :P My class's thoughts were that perhaps you get another strain while your immune system is busy working with the dead strains or something to that end :P[QUOTE="67gt500"]Well I dont know if vaccines are ineffective but I know this: Every year for as long as I can remember, my sister, who is a health / fitness freak gets flu vaccine for herself and her children whereas my children and I do not...

Fair enough -- you make a very valid point... I'm not saying flu vaccine doesnt work just because myself and my three kids dont get vacine and dont get flu -- its just funny when you think about it[QUOTE="DrTrafalgarLaw"]Yes! :) This way your immune system builds up Either Antibodies toward it, or T-Memory Cells so that when you get infected the immune system can recognize it right away and say hey I don't like you I want you dead :D I don't feel like being bothered to look into my notes right now and see which one of the two it is :P If I remember right it's the Antibodies that react :P Both B-memory cells and T-cells play a role both B-cell primarily.
