This is full of fallacies and lies, can you spot them?
Quote:
Let’s look at each side. The website, ProCon [1], sums it up pretty well.
PRO-VAXERS
All children should be vaccinated according to the AAP schedule.
There should be no exemptions because unvaccinated children risk public health.
Vaccines prevent serious illnesses and death and have, throughout history, eradicated diseases.
Vaccines are 90 to 99 percent effective. If a vaccinated child does get a disease, it’s milder and less serious.
Vaccines are safe. They do not cause autism.
The risks of not being vaccinated outweigh the risks of vaccines.
Vaccines generate about $20 billion a year in the U.S.
Vaccines save society money. Every dollar spent on vaccines saves the public $18.40, or $42 billion, in medical costs, missed work, disability, and death. (This amount is from a 2003 article. I’m not sure if it is accurate for today and whether it’s a per-year figure or not.) [2]
