A member asked:
What are the arguments about chicken pox vaccination?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
??argument???: After the approval of CP vaccine many seemed happy to have their child or grandchild get the disease "because we all did it that way".Certainly when there was no option that was true.They were unaware of the 50 related fatalities/yr & 10, 000 hospitalizations for complications such as reyes syndrome & flesh eating bacteria.Many still choose to ignore the risks. So sad.
