Yes I read your post. I could only assume seeing that the general gist of my post being that what is generally accepted as scientific facts is being constantly challenged by new research and information as a good foundation for doubting most scientific knowledge in a rational and healthy way that you coming back at me with there is no doubt that vaccines are effective as you not bothering to try to read or understand what I was saying.

Everyone should have doubts about childhood vaccines. Peoples teens are getting whooping cough which they were previously vaccinated for and giving it to babies. The first round of whooping cough didn't stick and people need to get revaccinated if they are going to be around immune suppressed people.

Seems like we are talking around each other. Maybe you did understand my original post and just chose to take me on for some other reason. I considered that I should really cover more thoroughly why I have doubts about the effectiveness of vaccines but thought "well they will probably understand what I'm getting at if they read the whole thing."

I do think you have proved exactly what I was saying about these kinds of questions. The whole poll is about skepticism and confidence. People should be skeptical about the effectiveness of vaccines and skepticism is viewed as an anti-scientific view point while if you are confident then you are on the right side on truth. Because I say that I have doubts about these things I get a lecture about how great vaccines are.
