If a Democrat adopted Denmark's pediatric vaccine schedule this forum would run red with all the SoCIaLiSM! threads

And the people who support this are the dumbest people on the planet. They hear some piece of shit from their side of the aisle spouting nonsense and they just nod their fucking heads like a bunch of muppets

Okay, but they didn't, so what are you screeching about?

Got that Bluesky brain, I see...

Are you playing a game of semantics to own the libs?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Monday an unprecedented overhaul of the childhood vaccine schedule that recommends fewer shots to all children.

Under the change — effective immediately — the vaccine schedule will more closely resemble Denmark’s, recommending all children get vaccines for 11 diseases, compared with the 18 previously on the schedule.

What's up with tylenol?

Wasnt that causing autism last month?

Maybe this administration can kill more than the million during the pandemic.

I have a kid due in May. My wife and I will be talking to the doctor about recommendations. The way it should be

You should know every single shot on the schedule, doctor will likely recommend everything, it’s in his best interest

How is it the doctor's best interest?

 

[chardog]

more visits more bucks

 

[Anung Un Rama]

more visits more bucks

so if you spread out the shots its better for the doctor because more visits?

have you like never taken a kid to get their shots?

nevermind

 

[Anung Un Rama]

have you like never taken a kid to get their shots?

nevermind

Haha, no lets not nevermind.
When you take your kid to get vaccines they get multiple vaccines. Why doesn't the evil doctor spread them out to make it better for him?
What would you guess gets a doctor more visits:
A) flu shot
B) the flu

Interestingly, what we are going to hear from the “follow the science” crowd will be yelling about how Denmark’s schedule isn’t sufficient for the US… but also how Denmark’s vaccine schedule proves that there is no association between vaccination and autism.

And what we hear from the "follow the youtube video" crowd is nothing backed by any data.

Like how you just insinuated that there is a link between the vaccines left off this new schedule, and autism. Something that you have never been shown and only advocated by internet dipshits and a guy who testified that worms ate a portion of his brain and therefore he cannot be held liable for anything he says.

But those scientists can't be trusted, because following the science (actual data that supports a conclusion) is apparently foolish. But following a guy who's never practiced medicine and describes himself as mentally incompetent, well apparently that's just being open-minded.

Flu vaccines are based on the flu of the previous year so it's not really necessary to get it because it generally won't stop the current flu going around.

You DO NOT want your kids to get meningitis. That disease will destroy their brain/spine. There's no way I would roll those dice for my son. Thank goodness he never had anything like that as a child.

It seems like a way to avoid public healthcare costs for kids. Rich people don't want to have to pay for certain vaccines for poor kids.
I could be wrong. This is outside of my wheelhouse.

$$$ over lives...

Don't politicize the health of your child. Discuss your child's health with a professional and decide if you want to believe a politician or a doctor.

The average white guy, black guy, Hispanic guy, Asian guy have more in common than rich people of their own race. Keep them divided and rip them off.
Same as it ever was.

My signature sums up my take on this matter

 

[Blastbeat]

Never got a flu shot, never needed a flu shot.
But not recommending the meningitis vaccine is..... misguided at best

The irony of this is that even the pro vaccine side, hasnt really looked into the topic deeply at all and just take it as a given, shutting off their brain and abdicating any critical thinking to an expert class. Nodding their heads.
