"In the case of measles we have a highly contagious virus that is a
leading cause of death and disability in young children. Fortunately, it
is also completely preventable with a simple and effective vaccine. As
the WHO points out – this is one of the most cost effective and highest
benefit-to-risk ratio health interventions that humans have devised. The
world-wide vaccine campaign has saved an estimated 17.1 million
children deaths from measles in the last 14 years.
"Denial of these facts, and fear-mongering about vaccines, directly results in the death of children."
Measles More Deadly than Previously Thought
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
