I posted once about the problem that COVID pandemics brought. It was a human problem that brought more ignorance than other things, I hated that time because there were health experts everywhere! But I remember hearing about anti-vaccine before that; was it rarer, perhaps?
It is usually not dangerous you are right, I think the death rate is for every 1000 cases 3 deaths. But still why risk it? There is an outbreak in Texas with 22 hospitalizations and one school-aged kid died, and he was unvaccinated. What if he was vaccinated ?
There were before too but very rare, the uncertain with covid vaccines brought more people on that side
Here vaccinations are mandatory for kids, if you don't they can't go to kindergarten and you get a fine to pay, but the shool from 6 years on can't be banned is mandatory so even without vaccines they are allowed to go
I've done all vaccines to kid, they are safe and tested since ages, on the other side I did not vaccine him for covid, mrna has too much unknown stuff
I think in the current moment measles and other vaccines are more important compared to COVID or even FLU.. I think that COVID vaccine helped a bit when there was those Gama and Delta strains, right now I would say that the danger is comparable to the Flu menace. There are some options without mRNA though if you prefer, but I would say that if you are over 60s should think about it, including other vaccines like pneumococcal, RSV.
I like the meningococcal one, that's hella dangerous if you get it, flu one i just skip it
One that I didn't have a chance also to take it but for my kids will be important is the HPV
Oh yea we got that too, not available back in my days... Is it important for males too?
They started with females but now is also available for males, and somehow it can avoid cancer in all genital types! I have a colleague who didn't want to have kids. But in one check up she discovered that she had one of the HPV types that can progress into a cervical cancer... she decided to have a kid right away...interesting right? Of course that she can die with other disease,s but only knowing that you have something that is very dangerous, you change your mind.
Oh yea they offer yearly free hpv test here to prevent cancer... Indeed interesting twist
Actually it was in a specific County in Texas...not the whole state =p
