Could you imagine if the number of people who didn’t want the covid vaccine would have been against the polio vaccine? We would have had millions of other people dead or in iron lungs and the virus would still exist and still be infecting people, but thanks to the vaccine and the mandates put in place and followed during its outbreak has literally eliminated the virus in the US. Guess where it isn’t eliminated? In certain 3rd world countries that didn’t have a vaccine and is only being treated and prevented by vaccines provided to them by the CDC as it’s goal is to eliminate the virus globally. Much like the Covid outbreak, polio also caused the government to close schools, public places, and also encouraged social distancing, along with the vaccine having potential side effects that included possible paralysis. Vaccination is nothing new, just as viral infections are nothing new, and the science behind their creation and use is pretty rock solid. Now if people who were unvaccinated couldn’t spread and infect others with the virus then vaccination probably wouldn’t be mandated, but it can and is spread by people so you put others at risk, not just yourself, when you remain unvaccinated during an outbreak of a potentially deadly virus…not sure what’s so difficult about that to understand.

      If you're alluding to the massively debunked connection between autism and vaccination... I hear you! I was diagnosed ADHD in my 30s. My family suspected I was autistic for years before then. (ASD and ADHD can have overlapping symptoms.) Some of my more fringe relatives implied that my issues (that turned out to be ADHD) were caused by my childhood vaccinations. It's a good thing I wasn't present for that conversation cause I'd have had a tough time keeping my cool and debunking them vociferously. ADHD is genetic and I likely got it from my undiagnosed mother.
      It also is a horrible thing to say to autistic folks, too. The implication is that they would rather have a maimed or dead child from a preventable disease rather than risk having an autistic child!

The study or trial specifications are just changed to reduce the unwanted data and include the wanted data.

Smallpox was extremely deadly; there was a reason it was the disease we first developed a successful vaccine against. Anti-vaxers who still claim autism is linked to vaccinations (despite it being disproven several times), how do they prefer polio or permanent damage/death over autism for their kid? There’s a very small group of people who cannot safely receive vaccinations, and rely on herd immunity. In my country, we are discussing not letting anti-vaxers (by choice) put their children in public kindergarten. It’s a tricky discussion with strong opinions on both sides. On a population scale, vaccines save more lives than they take by a ridiculous factor.

      thought the same.
      I also thought that she seemed very attacked or judged. And she maybe also has good reasons for it. I heard a few stories of parents whose children had adverse effects after vaccines and the doctors did not believe them, and I think that must be a horrifying situation. I still believe that you should definitely vaccinate and that the benefits are very high.
      But I think it is horrifying if doctors downplay issues or if they do not try to search for the cause of problems because they think the patients exaggerate stuff. The one women told her history of visiting many doctors because of her arthrities and no one looked into it enough to help her.

When instead, We have plethoras of people that run across the border everyday into the United States, Take international flights and land in the United States with ILLNESSES. COVID-19. bleh. There is a time and a reason for a Vaccine, there also ISNT. Because the law of nature works against us. The illnesses that are going to let us sit and rot in a bed for the rest of our life such as polio. is a GOOD reason to vaccinate. Something absurd such as the FLU, or Hepatitis is a dumb reason. Because we are breading SUPER BUGS.

    I actually really enjoyed this. I am pro-vaccine but I also believe that people should have choices and understand that this is a super complex issue. I had a bad reaction (allergic but not anaphylactic) to a certain vaccine as a young adult. It made me afraid to vaccinate my kids since we did not know what ingredient my reaction came from. Thankfully my family doctor was good at discussing risk versus benefit for each individual vaccine and each child. We both agreed to space things out and pay close attention to possible allergic reactions for each shot. We eventually got the kids fully vaccinated (minus the chicken pox shot which is what I reacted to).

    Hi Dr Mike.
    I had anaphylaxis as a result of my first covid jab (astro zeneca). As a Doctor was there, I was treated, so it was really unpleasant but dealt with.
    Here's my issue..... From some people I received a lot of abuse, when I explained that I didn't want to go for any more covid jabs due to the anaphylaxis, inuding someone who told me that I should have it because covid is worse than anaphylaxis! They had never had an allergic reaction of any kind....
    I discussed the jab again with a doctor, once the zeneca jab had been withdrawn, and we talked about the risks, especially as I have chonic q fever and a lot of other conditions, some of which are autoimmune disorders. I was asked to have the jab in the hospital, had an allergic reaction again, but it was dealt with. Bullying is wrong, open communication is key.
    Much love from the uk.

He always asks how we are doing and often checks on things we have being dealing with in the past (I don't always remember and he has to remind me). It can be anything from the last thing we saw him for to something we mentioned in conversation like how our soccer season went. He isn't some nefarious snake oil salesman.

      What or when a child gets a vaccine should be customized to that specific child. With some children, some vaccines are low risk with another child the same low risk might be a high risk because of specific health conditions. I don’t think it’s ok to just make a list of vaccines and tell parents “here is the generic list, get these vaccines at specific times” when the doctor should evaluate each individual vaccine for the child on an individual basis.

For children who are immunocompromised (meaning their immune system does not work well and has difficulty fighting foriegn bodies) they are not given certain vaccines until later on. So what you want IS in place, it's just not spoken about.

      I think this is what people need to hear. We used to be just as vulnerable to disease, which is the whole point of these movements to get vaccines to kids all over the world... we were trying to give them what we had, that feeling of security in knowing that diseases that used to ravage communities were now a thing of the past. If such a miracle medicine exists, it's a moral wrong to give only to a few people. So we in the US are pretty amazed, too, that anyone would dismiss that astounding opportunity out of fear of a rare adverse reaction.

      Not only do I have the privilege of living in a 1st world country, so I have easy access to vaccines, but I'm Canadian... so they're free. I would be a complete and total moron if I didn't take advantage of that. Sadly, I know people who think that because there are scary sounding ingredients (such as dihydrogen monoxide) in vaccines, that they're unsafe. Even the mercury used in some of them, thimerosal, is less dangerous than the mercury in fish.
      Now, yes, there's risk associated with vaccines, but there is risk to everything, and an even greater risk when not vaccinating. There are outbreaks of measles in the US and some cases in Canada because people aren't vaccinating.

    I have an immune disorder and even though I couldn't get vaccinations I made sure that my child did. I weighed the pros and cons and decided it was worth the risk. As my daughter reached highschool I let her decide for herself.
    My friend decided not to vaccinate her child. We had heated discussions about the topic over the years and just agreed to disagree.
    However am deeply saddened that my friends daughter passed away a few years later at the tender age of 15 from Meningococcal meningitis.
    My beautiful friend was so distraught and said "You were right...I should've listend." I this was a time where I truly wished I was wrong 😪.
    On the flip side one of my daughters fellow students a top gymnast started with seizures emediatley after she was given a vaccine at school. These seizures never went away and progressed. Now she requires 24/7 care as she has 6 - 10 seizures a day.

You know lepers were once driven from their communities because of the threat they posed to others. There is no supposed "right" that allows for individuals spreading of vaccine-preventable diseases. As a final thought allergic reactions reflect a problem with the individual and not the vaccine per se which is merely a "trigger".

      Dr. Plotkin was asked by the attorney, “If you don’t know whether DTaP or Tdap cause autism, shouldn’t you wait until you do know, until you have the science to support it to then say vaccine don’t cause autism?”
      Dr. Plotkin responded:
      “Do I wait? No. I have to take into account the health of the child.”
      The attorney then posed the question, “And so for that reason, you are okay telling the parent that DTaP, Tdap does not cause autism even though the science isn’t there yet to support that claim.”

The other said no. I automatically thought he was an antivaxxer. He explained he had a bad reaction to an MMR vaccine so his doctor told him to be careful. I felt so bad as he would have said yes otherwise and explained because there’s this air around antivaxxers who make those who have valid reasons to say no until they speak to their doctor and check if it’s okay to have the vaccine is an excuse to not to get vaccinated for the general population

Also, if you have to name all of the reasons why your opinion is substantial, then most likely what you’ve said is bullshit.

      my younger sister had a kidney reaction to a baby vaccine, and as a result, she had to be hospitalized for a few weeks, and she will not be able to get that specific vaccine again, and others that may have the same outcome. however, my family and I are still on vaccines. if my sister cannot get this vaccine, she is at risk of having this disease, and to avoid this it is necessary that the people who have contact with her have the vaccine. Get vaccinated to protect yourself, and those who for health reasons cannot be vaccinated.

      To everyone who recieves a flu vaccine each year I extend a huge thank you. I appriciate every person who gets vaccinated and helps lower my chances of catching the flu again.
      I have been able to be vaccinated for everything else required in my life and my children have all been vaccinated without any issues. We all need to do our part in helping each other stay healthy and safe.

    • @varyolla435
      @varyolla435 8 месяцев назад

      You can not view reaction to vaccination in a vacuum. You must understand that side effects to a given vaccine typically mirror the same seen with people infected with the actual infectious disease. That tells you those are a result of exposure to = the pathogen.
      Thus in so much as the infectious disease exists - hence why there are vaccines - you will therefore see one outcome or the other. Either a few susceptible individuals risk what are rare side effects to vaccination = or they risk the same from catching the infectious disease - which increases that risk exponentially.
      As an aside. People unable to tolerate exposure to vaccines which are weaker by design would more than likely react similarly - or worse - upon simply catching the infectious disease. This means those few in number people who reacted badly to vaccination would represent the same we would expect to see if the infectious disease simply spread through the population unchecked = except there are far fewer of them. Think about it.

    • @varyolla435
      @varyolla435 Год назад

      When the MMR first came out it was only one dose. It took some years to determine that 2 doses were needed to insure good immunity response. Meanwhile the Rubella vaccine is believed to last ~15 years for most. So developing Rubella 14 years later does not mean the vaccine did not work - especially if it was a mild case. Vaccines are not "100% preventative". They simply offer better odds at avoiding serious illness with milder side effects than catching what they prevent.

      Aside from the fact that, that sentiment was supposed to be about personality rather than internal workings of biology, I never understood it anyways. No, you don't. In fact, on average - especially over the course of years, parents know their children the LEAST. Yes, if your child is a whee little baby who you carry in your arms then you are likely the person who knows their personality (or whatever little there is of it at this stage) the best, but that's ALL. and all of that completely disappears once the child grows up and has friends, goes to school. In fact, for most people their close friends know them best.

      Also, 1 in 3000 means 0,03% risk of seizures. That's not high compared to the risk of meningitis, tetanus and so on that you risk while you are unvaccinated

      It is truly sad that so many people have been led to believe that Drs are the know all end all. It doesnt take a genius to realize anyone can learn anything with the information that is readily available if you look for it. When youre blind to all the doctors that disagree with the main stream propaganda, its real easy to make arrogant and ignorant comments such as yours. When the medical profession is the third leading cause of death, you would think a lot more people would become aware maybe they arent as smart as you have been led to believe!!! Why are so many people dying at the hands of the medical proffession? You think your making jokes but maybe you might want to take it a little more seriously because someday you or someone you love might be one of those statistics. Will it still be funny?

    Could you do a video explaining the FDA approval process of vaccines? Could you compare why traditional vaccines take 5+ years to be approved and why the c19 vaccine took less than 1 year? I ask people this being genuinely curious and people just call me an anti-vaxer and ignore the question or report it as spreading false information. I’m not pro or anti c19 vaccine. I’m not making any medical claims or statements. Just asking a couple of questions. I’m honestly just curious what steps if any were skipped. Additionally why the faster process can’t be used for other vaccines that are only 2 years into the 5 year process that could help people now. Thanks.

      You know that in 1939 that the Atomic Bomb was just a theoretical concept on paper = yet a few years later it was a reality. How?? Answer: the government spending billions of dollars and a massive amount of resources to create it. Ergo given the emergent nature of Covid governments and vaccine developers worked together - which does not typically happen - devoting a massive amount of resources towards developing vaccines. Also they were already familiar with the viral morphology as SARS-CoV-2 is a new variant of existing Coronaviruses which researchers have studied since the 1960's.
