Vaccines are a plot by big pharma!

According to you, probably.

Face palm lol.

So, are you implying we should try to remain willfully ignorant in an effort to avoid being a "big know it all?"

Not ignorant, but have a more open mind, take a good look from the other side, and maybe have more respect for those who don't believe what you believe.

You do understand having an open mind doesn't mean that you automatically believe crackpot theories that have been widely discredited, right?

As much as it would be nice to do labratory research on vaccines and the immune system, I just don't have the resources to do that. Because of that, I'm going to have to trust that 95% of scientists who devote their lives to studying these things know what they're talking about.

Good lord you've got some conspiracy thinking problems there bud.

How Many Die from Medical Mistakes in U.S. Hospitals?

An updated estimate says it could be at least 210,000 patients a year, more than twice the number in a frequently quoted Institute of Medicine report.

Dude. The word "vaccine" doesn't even appear in that article. What does this have to do with the topic?

Is that all you can do, its a fact that there are miles of medical mistakes being made all over the world. My point is, that you cannot trust the medical establishment, you have to do your own research, not just palming on everything you don't understand.

Well you stick to your beliefs and I'll stick to mine, or can't you handle that ?.

Do you still not get it? This is not a matter of belief, it's a matter of fact. The facts utterly disprove your claims. Are you going to face the facts?

Looks like I have to spell it out for you, the topic was only an example of not trusting everything that medical science brings out, Dhoo.

Are you still at that ?.

Nope. But when something like vaccines have a long standing record of success, I'd say it's pretty trustworthy. And a basic study of a history of medicine gives pretty good evidence that when vaccines come out, previously deadly diseases become an afterthought.

Or are you trying to pass on the homeopathy spouted on natural news about how raindrops and granola would all make us healthy as could be?

I can't think of anything else worth saying. If you say anything interesting I'll consider an eye roll instead.
