Herd immunity
It's the same reason I don't get any inoculations. I say let the sheeple experiment with shooting dead virus into their system, I'll just ride the wave and let my immune system do it's fucking job.
Out of curiosity: did your parents get you vaccinated as a child against polio? Also, what about meningitis C, tetanus, diptheria, measles, mumps and rubella?
It does seem some vaccinations are dubious, but there are core vaccinations which are critical. There are so many examples. I mean do you know how rabies has been *almost* completely wiped out in the world? Through vaccination. And all those diseases above too.. almost completely gone. And rabies has a 100% fatality rate - except for 7 people in modern times who survived with a pioneering chemically induced coma technique. And the vaccine? It's 100% effective if administered properly.
You should see what happened when the UK had a dodgy press episode about MMR (measles etc). Some people decided to stop having the vaccination for their kids.. and some years later more people got the disease. This really is causation. Check out Ben Goldacre's book Bad Science. If everyone stopped these core vaccinations, eventually those diseases would come back.
How about yellow fever? How do you think your immune system would enjoy that ride? Or hepatitis? People who work in hospitals and similar environments have their lives saved by this vaccination. Or typhoid?
Have I been trolled here?
I really wonder what Jonas Salk would make of a comment like that, not to mention all the other vaccine researchers in history, including the ones who tested their vaccines on themselves. Madness or dedication, I don't care. I appreciate their work.
