How many would have died of polio if there were no vaccine? Just one example.
Yes, the sky is not falling.
Just my opinion.

The issue is not whether the sky is falling or not. The issue, to some extent, is why people have such a hard time looking at this fact without immediately trying to justify it. And why is it that most people aren't or weren't even aware of it? Why aren't more people interested in how or why this happens?
If a bicycle rider got run over and killed in the Villages, everyone would want to know how such a thing could happen. It would be tragic and God help anyone who would make the following comment: "The sky is not falling".
