To Vaccinate or not...
Diseases such as Whooping Cough are on the comeback and many experts blame this on the reluctance of some parents to allow their children to be vaccinated.
There are several people arguing aginst routinely vaccinating yourself and your children, some of their arguments are quite persuasive.
You can read up on the other side of the argument - by reading this excellent WIRED Magazine article - www.wired.com/magazine/2009/10/ff_waronscience
Vaccines. Hi folks, Noticed a link to an article 'Vaccines - Is there a downside? An article by Jesse Cannone'
I don't think this is very balanced article. I recently read an article in Wired, a publication I have a lot of respect for regarding this.
http://www.wired.com/magazine/2009/10/ff_waronscience
It may appear biased and pro-vaccine but I think it offers a good viewpoint/counterpoint on the vaccine argument. I would urge you to read it. Having this article which is clearly anti-vaccine linked in such a prominent position without a counter argument may influence people to do what I feel is the wrong thing to do and not vaccine their kids.
Otherwise I enjoy your site and visit it regularly. Sorry for not messaging you every time I visit the site and get a nugget of gold. -- Cheers, Emmet M
