@zenvelo My mistake. I meant none of these “Great, Christie gets to say not all diseases are alike.Like to hear him tell people measles aren’t dangerous, or tell a woman with HPV caused cervical cancer that people shouldn’t have to get the vaccine” things you mentioned.
@ibstubro I don’t see that as twisting, but I do see it could be argued it is.
The fact is WHO, FDA, CDC try to capitalize as much as possible on outbreaks to scare the public into vaccinating. Don’t get me wrong, like I said, I am in favor of childhood vaccinations. The media runs with promoting the hysteria, because hysteria causes people to tune in.
Before this Measles outbreak, there was H1N1 flu when it first started coming around. The media showed people desperate, some in tears, wanting to vaccinate their children. The media had really ramped up the panic. I had more than one friend on Facebook asking for prayer, because a family member had the flu and they were sure they were at deaths door. The FDA saw not long into it that it wouldn’t likely be much worse than usual the coming flu season. It wasn’t a Spanish flu ready to kill millions.
Last year half the flu cases were H1N1. Does anyone even realize that flu is still circulating? I doubt many people do because the media stopped talking about it.
I have to say I’m shocked the media talked so much this year about the flu vaccine missing the mark in a big way. I guess they really had no choice when bunches of vaccinated people fell sick.
