I don't think even DocRocket will deny it. Ask him.


Of course there is evidence in the medical literature of adverse reactions to vaccines.

However, as I said before, and reiterated... I now re-reiterate:

The overwhelming consensus is that the good done by influenza vaccine so overwhelmingly outweighs its infinitesimally small risks that to not use it would be criminal.

Not that this distinction will penetrate TRH's idee fixe regarding immunization.
