The Reality Behind Vaccines

in science •  7 years ago 

If rats are good enough why don't we just jump straight from testing on rats to the market?

This is not even about vaccines alone, we are not carrying out long term studies on anything really. That doesn't mean nothing works, it just means we really don't know if they do or how they really do.

I'm not supporting the refusal to get vaccinated, I am rallying for honesty. If we don't do long term studies then we can't really call it science.

Your definition of long term is just asinine. Plenty of vaccines have now been used for multiple generations to no negative effects. Like it or not, your data is there.

All the while antivaxers cause things like this:

Which is only going to get worse.

Questioning the experimentation around vaccines or any other treatment should not be equated to supporting discontinuation of use, that jump is asinine.

I'm not talking about using vaccines over several generations but the opposite, keeping a close eye on those who are not getting vaccinated over generations to have an actual comparison point and be able to call it science.

Ad hominem is not argument, neither is appeal to tradition. CBS news is not a reliable source. Measles has appeared moving through vaccinated populations as well.
