Got the Salk vaccine (injection) and then a few years later I got the Sabin (sugar cube). They gave out the Sabin vaccine in a huge assembly at school.

Wakefield was worse than a hack . . . he was paid to do what he did, by lawyers who were suing vaccine makers. In a just world, that fucker (and the lawyers) would be sitting in a jail cell.
I&#039;ve been meaning to add my suggestion for Messenger&#039;s next book: &quot;Irene&#039;s Iron Lung; Polio Can Be Fun!&quot;
I have seen Messenger&#039;s views all over the comments on science and medical websites. Her main job seems to be making internet comments. She is an insufferable bore who loves junk science and swoons over any idea from Wakefield. Reading her nonsensical spew can make one headdesk oneself into a TBI, while simultaneously having a stroke from the absolute rage that her stupidity induces. The ideas she spreads among otherwise relatively intelligent people are terrifying.

OK, now I&#039;m horrified. I&#039;d hoped for at least three more digits, and another comma.
Sitting in a jail cell infected with measles.
I got my shingles vaccination after all three of my sisters and my best friend all suffered through it. Best decision ever.
&quot;For most children it is a good thing to get measles,&rdquo; Tina&rsquo;s mother reassured her.
Except, of course, for <a href="http:\/\/www.roalddahlfans.com\/articles\/meas.php" target="_blank">the ones who die.</a> .
