Some very good points on vaccination. I find the blind "you should vaccinate" mandate concerning in our society. My younger brother had a nasty reaction to vaccination when he was younger (not life threatening, thankfully). As an adult I have chosen to have some vaccinations and refused others. This includes the flu vacc and the measles vaccine (I refuse to take MMR and they won't offer a separate vaccine in Australia and I fit most of the categories for flu vacc). Most of the information that you need on vaccinations (such as resting after having it, not doing certain tasks, acceptable side effects etc) is not told to the majority of people. I only found out after challenging doctors who demanded I do certain things.
