wow... a vax thread that finally opens some common ground. Never before have I seen it!
Unfortunately, that is the nature of such emotive topics (circumcision is another) and that is in enacts Newtons third law of motion - For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction. If one says it's absolutely this and wont even consider that, then the other will say it is absolutely that and wont consider this. It provokes the odd human perception that the loudest person or the last word makes it the authority and correct. I think that's the reason why it's called a vaccine WAR. Taking the middle ground is a vulnerability. I know I come across completely anti-vax but the truth is I wouldn't have an issue with vaccination if it didn't work against the bodies natural systems and contained toxic substances. In other words, if was postponed to when a child was 2 and had developed their blood brain barrier and CYP450 enzyme system fully, if it was oral and a spray that didn't by-pass the gut and followed the normal process of a pathogen, and didn't contain toxic and damaging substances I'd have no problem with them at all. Geez, I would even have more respect (most probably still wouldn't do it but would still have more respect) if they took them down to one pathogen at a time, but they've even taken away that option.

Wouldn't it be nice if that was an amalgamation of science and complementary medicines?
That would be awesome but a very slow process, because some people would have to take a pay cut if people realised they could heal themselves by eating more of a certain food rather than pop a pill.
