| usrevenge said: vaccines are only stupid when it's for inconvient sickness, like the cold or flu. people lined up for bird flu vaccines, was pointless eventually vaccine resistant diseases will be all over and we will be in trouble, in reality we should use anti biotics and such more sparingly |
Incovenient sicknesses like the Spanish Flu which killed between 50 and 100 million people? Influenza is usually not particularly deadly, but a pandemic of a particularly lethal strain can kill a significant percentage of the worlds population.
Also I don't think vaccine resistance is a huge issue? Vaccine resistance certainly didn't appear in polio or smallpox. I know anti-biotic resistance is a real problem however.
