Fact #1- healthcare costs have never been higher than they are now, while the number of vaccines being administered have never been greater. In fact, the increases in healthcare costs have exceeded by a wide margin, any other industry or product. So how do you conclude that vaccines save money? Show us the tangible data that supports that claim, rather than pass along as true, pure, baseless speculation that is also so self serving.
Yea.... obesity and baby boomers getting old are costly things......

Must be some kinda intercontinental contagion, or something.
Bananas ... yeah, that's the ticket ... contaminated bananas. You see, the Simians may have tested the ripeness of some bananas by biting them, ... leaving the hard unripe ones on the tree. People then collected those contaminated bananas, shipped them off to San Francisco ... errr wait, never mind ... that was Hep vaccine/aids contamination. My bad.

All healthcare workers are required to get them and keep up to date on all immunizations. The hospital is forced to pay tons of $$$ to all the Pharma companies that make them. The flu shot literally provides no benefit for me whatsoever. I've had the flu 3 times and two of those years I received the vaccine. While I wouldn't claim the shot caused the flu I don't think it actually stopped it. The clinical trials are also very, very flawed. They don't do a proper double blind experiment but instead inject everyone with a shot and follow up with them to see if they got the flu. And the shot was allegedly "62% more effective" but without controlling for extenuating factors this is borderline insignificant.

Other vaccines like Mumps, Measles etc. seem to work better because the diseases don't mutate as rapidly as the flu.

Keep in mind just because the medical cartel known as the AMA says something doesn't mean it will be enacted. The AMA is basically a huge union for physicians. While they have successfully prevented people from buying antibiotics over the counter for sore throats etc. they may not have enough clout to do that. Most people view them with some suspision and they're not exactly well liked by the general populace.

Like seriously.... do people understand how infrequently people get vaccinations in the span of their lives? Might as well stay away from the outdoors, sunlight is way more harmful.

What is not true? The schedule of shots given to infants?

I got news for you ... that information comes directly from the US Department of Health and Human Services, and can be reviewed there, or at vaccines.gov

Wow, the extent you all will go to deceive .... yes, Hep-B vaccine ... 1 of 3 is routinely administered just after birth.

Infants, Children, & Teens (birth - age 18) | Vaccines.gov

Now again, what isn't true?
