I read one report that estimated that about 42,000 of the 4.1 million children born in the USA every year, would have died without our robust mandatory vaccination program (for kids in public schools at least). Not to even mention the direct and indirect costs, of a lack of immunizations. I also shake my head at those whose opposition to the Covid vaccine is predicated on "I don't put what I don't know, in my body," yet are obese and can't even pronounce a lot of the ingredients - in the fast/junk food they constantly consume. I won't hold my breath for a 'hypocrisy vaccine' anytime soon though. lol
I’m not an anti-vaxxer, I recently had my second shingles shot, but I haven’t had the Covid vaccine. By the way, I do care very much about what I put into my body, my BMI is under 24. There is a huge difference between being anti-vax and refusing a vaccine with an unknown track record.
