@Feedmadcat i think its mostly just the fact that our medical system is much more advanced and easy available to most developed countries. Personaly i'm on the fence when it comes to vaccines, i think sometimes they're not necessary IMO..for things like the swine flu.

I'm scared. Have sore on neck, saw dermatologist yesterday now I'm scheduled to cut the spot out which is half the size of an eraser, he drew on paper the size and shape of a human eye which is what he is going to take out and said would have 5 of 6 stitches then will send that to pathology. This seems pretty radical to cut a big hole in a woman's neck before knowing for sure it is cancer. Which tells me he knows from experience it IS cancer and is taking the whole area to prevent spreading.

i hate how all they show you is the very extreme cases of melanoma. people with beginning stage will watch this and think because they dont have a big black mass the size of a quarter they shouldn't have it checked. take close ups with a good digital camera then zoom in with a photo editing software and look at the mole

@Slb24 What happened with your melanoma? How are you doing now?

@HELPTHEHOMELESS32 And yet the average lifespan is now longer and healthier than someone a hundred years ago living in the country with no vaccinations. Do not feast on that human urge to believe in conspiracies.
