The point is, that almost any Doctor will tell you to get your child vaccinated. I think it's a good plan for people to do their own research, and it may well be that not all vaccinations are necessary or justifiable. What I take exception with is people that are dead set against vaccinations, based on spotty research and worse yet the full on conspiracy nuts that think it's some global elite's plan to control the population. Funnily enough people are living longer after the introduction of vaccines than they ever did before. Infant mortality is down and quality of life is up. If it is indeed an evil plan, it's not a very good one and it isn't working.

For me, it makes sense that a Doctor would have a far better understanding of these things than me. Not only are they much more educated on Human biology, but their depth of their experience would clearly dwarf mine. The only way for vaccination to be to really be the "population control experiment" or whatever other nonsense people are claming is if it's a vast conspiracy that involves pretty much all medical science. It's absurd on the face of the argument.

Now I'm not claiming you're one of these people, and I hope you aren't.
