I did.
The same article has the following quote
"The MMR vaccine with the Urabe strain of mumps was first used in Britain in October 1988. It was blamed for the deaths of several children after being withdrawn by the Department of Health in September 1992."
So I guess we draw the conclusion that the death of a few vaxtards from vaccines is worth it for the Committee on Safety of Medicine (and you)
Yes, of course. Do you know the death rates of those diseases we vaccinate against?
Any risk, and the risks are incredibly small, is massively outweighed by the benefits. That's what medicine is - a risk/benefit analysis.
Your support for the use of an unsafe vaccine in Brazil is baffling.
You're calling it unsafe. The professionals decided it was safer than not vaccinating and they were right.
GSK knew the risks. The vaccination had been withdrawn in UK, USA, Japan etc 5 years before. They rebranded it but it was the same vaccine. The link between between MMR vaccination and aseptic meningitis was known and established. It was not a small sample. 200,000 people. And the article accepts that the cases of aseptic meningitis was significantly under reported because it is Brazil's poorest province and that many people would not have had access to hospitals or that if they did seek assistance it was not reported.
The risk was better than the risk of not immunising. If you're worrying about a 1 in 14,000 risk, you really shouldn't be leaving the house.
The study you linked had a sample of 87 - sometimes that can be helpful, but it's a very, very small number on which to base a retrospective study. For that kind of work you'd usually want a sample in the thousands as you can't control for other effectors.
Governments have covered up the risks of vaccination in the past and when the film Vaxxed provides evidence that they are doing it again. It is convincing and plausible.
No they haven't, no it didn't and no it isn't.
The cover up nonsense has already been debunked in the last couple of pages, there is no evidence at all in that film.
Ask yourself why the so called whistleblower didn't appear in the film at any point.
Your dogmatic view that the Government or Big Pharma would never lie about the risks of vaccination (given their track record) seems naive (to me)
Seeing as there is no evidence so far that anyone has lied or covered anything up, why would one assume that they would? That would be a ridiculous stance that only a fool would take.
Anyway, it's not Big Pharma you need to worry about, it's the lizard men.
