Putting a face to the dangers of vaccines

in vaccines •  7 years ago  (edited)

Vaccines don’t fall into the category of medical errors you’re citing with that NPR story, because giving a vaccine in and of itself isn’t a medical error.

Medical errors happen. Someone is given the wrong drug, or a doctor doesn’t notice a drug allergy and the patient has a reaction. Someone leaves necrotic tissue behind during surgery and the patient gets a fatal infection. I don’t believe I’m defending the infallibility of physicians here by stating the simple fact that vaccines don’t do what this author and some of the commenters claim.

We were talking about the quality of healthcare workers here, stay on topic, I was responding to that topic...

I’m sorry you have such a poor opinion of the thousands of healthcare workers, be they nurses, doctors, techs, researchers, who work extraordinarily hard to keep you safe and healthy, often for less money than they deserve.

Well, the reason he thinks healthcare workers are such low quality isn’t because of some medical error.

He thinks healthcare workers are trash because his family members got a vaccine, which he blames their health problems on.

And, I absolutely spoke to your point, multiple times, about the risks/advantages of using healthcare providers.

So I am staying on topic.

Jumping into our vaccine conversation but wanting me not to relate things to vaccines seems a little off topic to me.
