  • I was talking with a couple of ladies who didn't believe in vaccines and one of them told me that she believed one of her daughters had had her immune system overloaded from the MMR vaccine and had caused her to suffer fevers.

    Can immunity be overloaded in such a way? My immediate thought would be that if it could, we'd just vaccinate against these preventable diseases one at a time.

  • The graphs I've been shown display numbers dropping before vaccines were in place; they continued dropping subsequent to the vaccines.

    It would be helpful to see the actual numbers that you speak of in graph form as the other anti-videos show.

    Thank you!
