Bless you for actually answering the question. There are a couple of things I'm curious about, though: if polio and TB are coming back, are the vaccines targeted towards the newer strains or are they designed for the older version? I do understand that having even the old vaccines might help if I'm exposed to the new strain, but I'd like to know all the same.

Also there's a teeny tiny chance I might test positive for TB to begin with. My older sister did, but she's always been cleared of it (although getting the mandatory chest x-ray is a hassle.) My parents test positive for it too, because they got TB vaccine back in the USSR. We think that might have affected my sister in the womb as well. I *think* I was tested before going to preschool and came out negative, but I don't remember. Do they still inoculate you if you test positive but don't actually have TB?

DA - The reason why some diseases are coming back aren't because the vaccines are faulty, it's because people aren't vaccinating their kids because of concerns identical to yours, plus concerns about autism. The concerns are unfounded and not backed up by scientific research. On the other hand, the diseases are very real and potentially very harmful.

I understand your concern, but your distrust of medicine and vaccines is coloring your judgement here.

But in that sense, isn't your blind belief and trust in medicine coloring your judgement here as well?

It's not "blind belief" when you have years and years and studies and studies and hundreds of thousands of people to refer against when you're forming decisions.

hm what do we take seriously here

do we listen to the decades of studies and research and hundreds of thousands of cases that tell us get your fucking vaccines

or do we listen to a few tinfoil hatters who think they know better than actual experts because they think the last 2000 years of scientific thought and learning and knowledge and discovery is a government conspiracy by jewish mushrooms to put mexican goat roofies in our grass

it's a tough choice, i admit
