According to https://www.answers.com/Q/What_do_vaccines_contain vaccines contain weakened or dead version of what its supposed to prevent.

So you are saying you believe injecting weakened or dead disease should be mandatory because bringing back dead diseases is bad.

Huh? :blink:

It is so your immune system develops antibodies to fight the infection, so a full blown strain of the pathogen later on doesn't cause as much damage/get you sick. Vaccines are safe, and your source admits that the weakened pathogen cannot cause the disease. There's no contradiction, and it seems like you're trying to invent one.


Or so thats the theory.

You are not limited.

You stated thousands die from vaccines. People asked for credible sources. Some unknown blog isn't a source. Hell that stupid autism "study" is still getting passed around even though it's been disprove several times over.

So prove your claim of thousands of deaths.

I think most anti-vaxers dont say anything because you people put words in our mouths and many of the ones who do say things and have blogs and stuff get shut down by the government

It might be worth considering that anti-vaxxer stuff is on (mostly) anonymous blogs, run by Mummy Bloggers with zero medical training and no oversight; meanwhile articles in favour of vaccines is found in highly-respected medical journals, run by experienced scientists with degrees up to their armpits and high editorial standards.

To me, that suggests that the burden of proof has always been on those in favour of vaccines (Mummy Bloggers just need a Google account; not any credentials). Those who believe in vaccination have met that burden of proof consistently.

If any anti-vaxxer would like to provide actual scientific evidence for their theory, there's a whole scientific community of journals waiting to offer scrutiny. I believe said journals will keep waiting.


Yeah except they wont let you get a medical degree if your an anti-vaxer because 'that wouldnt help there agenda'

They restricted it to sources that have an obligation to tell the truth. The fact that all of those sources are against you has entirely to do with your side being completely wrong and ignorant.

Hell, you didn't even know how vaccines work until page 18, and we're supposed to trust your expertise?

If there is real evidence of deaths being caused by vaccines, it will be in an official report (causes of death have to be reported).

An anonymous blogger is no evidence at all, and it will never be accepted.

What new conspiracy theory is this? Again -- evidence (from a medical school's website, please).

I've known people who have gone to medical school. They were asked about their grades, they were asked about their extra-curricular activities. They were not asked if they were anti-vaxxers.

Of course, I don't imagine scientific evidence (which doctors generally follow) leading many to being an anti-vaxxer.

And saying that it's true doesn't make it true either. So far you haven't given any evidence to back your claims. Or any evidence to suggest that you understand vaccination, or medical science generally.

For them sure. Their immune systems are still developing. Vaccines are injecting dead or weakened atigens into the body. Our immune system gets trained to handle the real virus by creating antibodies in response. Once the perceived threat has passed many of the antibodies break down but immune cells called memory cells remain.
