RE: Fathers Talk About Their Unvaccinated Children and the Unbelievable Differences from Most Kids.

timbo I have watched your comments in these vaccination discussions and I see you have changed your tone from reactionary to much more reserved which I applaud, BUT I HAVE to challenge you to the same challenge that I have extended to anybody that is willing: show me one instance of a vaccine being efficacious and I will donate all my steem to your account and leave the platform, because of your claim:

I have also come to the conclusion that once upon a time. They were, and in some parts of the world. A vaccine can very well save your life.

But I am going to rephrase my challenge to evoke some kind of proof of your claim, so with the benefit of restating my challenge: prove your claim, that vaccines save your life, in certain parts of the world, at one time or another.

Sort:  

PROOF:

Smallpox vaccine, the first successful vaccine to be developed, was introduced by Edward Jenner in 1796. He followed up his observation that milkmaids who had previously caught cowpox did not later catch smallpox by showing that inoculated cowpox protected against inoculated smallpox.

SOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallpox_vaccine

In the time of smallpox, a similar strain of the sickness cowpox would prevent others from getting sick if they got cowpox via working around cows, or by vaccine.

As your challenge stated:

Prove your claim, that vaccines save your life, in certain parts of the world, at one time or another.

So in Europe during the years 1796 to the late 1800s I believe and the proof shows, getting a smallpox vaccine was very likely to save your life.

"The mortality of the severe form of smallpox—variola major—was very high without vaccination, up to 35% in some outbreaks.[4] A method of inducing immunity known as inoculation, insufflation or "variolation" was practiced before the development of a modern vaccine and likely occurred in India, Africa, and China well before the practice arrived in Europe"

In China in the time from 1567–1572 the below information would also prove that a type of vaccine, or inoculation which is another word for vaccine. The case of smallpox vaccines would also have been praised as saving millions of lives.

In China, powdered smallpox scabs were blown up the noses of the healthy. The patients would then develop a mild case of the disease and from then on were immune to it. The technique did have a 0.5–2.0% mortality rate, but that was considerably less than the 20–30% mortality rate of the disease itself.

Now, don't get me wrong, the easy way to prove that there was a time and a place that vaccines were effective and the better choice is easy to prove yet... I will also have to state... this is no longer the majority of cases. Especially in the corporate world of the Big Pharma Companies all over the world trying to make a buck on the backs of the fear mongering they cause.

I do appreciate the challenge though, this was a eye opener and a fun dive into more information on the subject.

Have an awesome day!

Yes, yes ... I will have to do an articlw on the REAL history of smallpox.
What we have been told is mostly myth.

I have been offline for 4 weeks. Just seeing this for the first time. What I have to say right now is that this isn't worth my time and I work a lot so I am not spending anymore time on this. Nothing personal just the last thing I want to do is sit here and argue with someone about who is right or wrong on a topic that doesn't have much weight.

Wishing you the best and good luck my friend! I do appreciate the time and effort you put into it and it is obvious you have a passion for this.

Have a great night!

I read the first 2 lines of your comment.

Look man, it is a month old.

I didn't realize you did anything either, I commented a month ago on someone elses post, and you proved me wrong good for you. Can't be right all the time.
