In the past few days, there have been very interesting discussions in the US Congress about the vaccines that children receive, as Congress was conducting an investigation into Trump's anti-vaxxer RFK Jr. before his appointment as Secretary of Health. It seems to me that the media did not attach any importance to this.

Senator Rand Paul made an excellent comment. He is a doctor and supports vaccination of children, but he believes that some things need to be further investigated.

There is no doubt that vaccines have helped the most in eradicating some diseases. And there is really no evidence that vaccines cause autism or other disorders, but, as Paul emphasized: "You have parents here, fathers and mothers, who had a healthy child, who already spoke 200 words. And then suddenly - zero. And no one can explain to them why. It is normal for people to develop skepticism. We can refer to science all we want, but that same science cannot explain to parents what happened to their child."

Exactly. Most of the so-called "Anti-vaxxers" are actually people with unpleasant experiences that science couldn't help.

There is actually little evidence that smearing cow puss, Egg yokes, or baby kidney into a wound has ever eradicated any disease. Namely Polio seems to be a favorite.

The vaccine was introduced after water purification. Way after and the Polio count actually went up when the vaccine was introduced.
