now, i don't agree with those saying vaccines should be mandatory....but damn, why do people have to be so blase about their kids health? or worse than blase, they just refuse to listen to professionals. they'll listen to a playboy bunny, but not their doctor?
people worked hard to develop these vaccines, and they have saved god knows how many lives over the years. but now, for some reason, some think they're not necessary. that's too bad for their kids, and for others who come in contact who are too young, or have other issues that preclude them getting vaccines.

seems many have forgotten or just ignore how things used to be....but hey, we can return to those good old days and then they'll understand. won't that be fun?
my mother once told me she'd have liked to live during the antebellum days. i told her she was nuts. people who know i love history ask all the time when i wish i'd lived. now. now is good. i can read about all those 'good old days' while enjoying electricity, running water, refrigeration, air conditioning, and modern medicine.
