I'm not anti-vax....but

An honorable man once said, “Anything before but is [redacted]”

TCuz is just going to lump you in as an anti-vaxxer. 😉

Wow. Thanks for saving me the effort!

Ha... who cares! (I vaccinated my kids)

Borg

2/13/19 5:14pm

But! You are helping push anti-vax arguments and narratives. Gross.

TCuz

2/13/19 5:15pm

I'm not "pushing" anything. Merely posing a question

Borg

2/13/19 5:17pm

By giving any credibility to anti-vax thoughts you’re helping to push them

Oh brother

Good point 🙄

I don't know what the evidence suggests but I trust that vaccines do far

So you think people should be able to free ride off of the rest of society

Yup. I believe in freedom above all else.

Jericho

So should you be allowed to assault people? Drive drunk? Freedom above all else!

Freedom to act independently and without government oversight

Nope. Those things don't carry with them the same risks of failing to vaccinate.

Really? 80,000 people died from the flu last year.

Wait...we should just abort those who choose not too

It's called the non aggression principle. You should try it sometime.

Borg

Probably some thing completely unrelated to the vaccinations.

There is strong correlation between those who exercise and those who eventually die.

The explanation: You are a dummy and didn't get a flu shot.

Many of these disabilities appear around the same time vaccinations occur.

Another reason to wait for a different "time"

Smart CBers will explain why the US has a vaccine injury compensation program if

SierraCoug

Nobody’s claiming that at all

Unless, it’s your child and you have the benefit of hindsight.

Yeah, if only we had time machines

By the way nobody makes that claim?

SierraCoug

That post doesn’t at all claim what you said

And you think your post about the compensation fund has anything in the world to do with that? LOL

Why don’t you keep reading you own link there pal. What does it say about the brain damage below?

More importantly, does “spacing them out” reduce that risk?

Carolina, part of reading is not stopping when you feel like stopping just to prove a point.

shimmy

2/13/19 8:42pm

Furthermore CDC"These problems generally occur 1-3 days after the shot."

2/13/19 8:43pm

Did you read this line or could you not see it?

Look! It says BRAIN DAMAGE. Words before or after it mean nothing.
