I've never heard of that particular vaccine before and I don't think I'd give it to my kid. Sometimes kids just need to get sick.

-edit- obviously vaccines are only meant for virusses
Rotavirus vaccine.

Why create a vaccine for a population in which lightening strikes (<62 per year) are a more likely cause of death than rotavirus (<40 per year)?

I like where he points out the patent holders for the vaccine are the ones involved in recommending it.
