You'll find plenty of examples online of cases where the vaccine is responsible for the outbreak of the disease it supposedly protect against.



I can find plenty of examples online of cases where aliens anally probe Dakota farmers. That doesn't mean it's true.

" LONDON (AP) — The World Health Organization says a new polio outbreak in Sudan is linked to an ongoing vaccine-sparked epidemic in Chad — a week after the U.N. health agency declared the African continent free of the wild polio virus. "

11 cases is not an epidemic, it's an outbreak.

"a week after the U.N. health agency declared the African continent free of the wild polio virus."

Why do you think the U.N. was able to declare the continent polio free in the first place? Because of strong wishful thinking? Or because of vaccines?

See, that's the thing that enrages me. Here we have an "epidemic" (it's not) that was caused 11 cases of polio - after the virus was eradicated on the continent with the help of the vaccine. An outbreak that wouldn't even be a blip on radar if not for vaccines.

For heaven's sake.
