So depressing. If you're not vaccinating your child, you are putting the following people at risk: - Other idiots like yourself who chose not to vaccinate their child and their very unlucky children. - Vaccinated people (because a vaccine is never 100% effective). - Babies too young to be vaccinated. And of course, you are taking part in resurrecting a disease that had been officially announced as eradicated in 2000.…

Yes, idiots is a good word for these people. All the evidence shows that vaccines do a hell of a lot more good than harm, yet the continue to believe in shitty science and conspiracy theories.

The Snopes article has you out-experted. Moreover, it fits with all the other studies ever done.

You're right, effective is more accurate. I picked my wording very carefully. I'm not one to use insults lightly but this topic enrages me. It's one thing to make choices that are detrimental to yourself, it's worse to make such choices that impact your children (who are helpless) but I think it's the ultimate disgrace to make choices that endanger the entire population.
So that means you're also against smoking and drinking...? Not trying to be snarky - but there are LOTS of activities that are socially acceptable that endanger others. And they are probably a whole lot more dangerous overall than lack of vaccination. (For the record, my children and I are vaccinated).
Vaccination is not the same, unless you intend to quarantine your kids forever.

"I want to be absolutely clear that I believe vaccines have saved and continue to save countless lives. I would never suggest that any parent avoid vaccinating children of any race. Vaccines prevent serious diseases, and the risks associated with their administration are vastly outweighed by their individual and societal benefits."
I don't disagree that disclosing the full set of information is usually better, but it can be problematic to include every bit of data and attempt to justify everything, particularly in the rat race that is funding for research.

At least in the US, these are available in most states at the pharmacy and are usually covered by insurance. Pertussis in particular is a leading vaccine preventable cause of death worldwide. So at least be up to date on your Tdap.
