But the people without fully functional immune systems rely on the herd immunity provided by vaccinations, so...
I'm not arguing against vaccinations, I hope you realize that. I find it absolutely incredibly what we've been able to achieve in illness prevention and even erradication.
The only thing im trying to say is that we shouldn't understate how incredible the human immune system is, and saying it can't function without vaccines is just misinformation.
You know what would really highlight how amazing the human immune system is, instead of this antivaxxer line of comments?
How introducing an already dead or greatly weakened form of a disease to it gives it the fore knowledge on how to defeat the real thing in the future.
Like. A. Vaccine.
Calm down, Edward Jenner...
aaaaand you missed the point again.
That's still you
It can function without vaccines just fine.... Until it can't and some disease wipes out half of humanity. And that was all before the modern world was as connected as it is today.
Misinformation my ass.
