Childhood vaccines were originally developed to protect young children from virulent, sometimes lethal, diseases.
According to mainstream medicine, “Vaccines have played a crucial role in reducing the burden of infectious diseases.”
“A May study in the Lancet estimated that vaccines against 14 common pathogens have saved 154 million lives over the past five decades—at a rate of six lives every minute,” asserts Tara Haelle in a Scientific American article published this week called “The Staggering Success of Vaccines.”
At the same time, even the most diehard vaccine supporters found themselves ill at ease during COVID when they learned that unvaccinated children were being barred from public life and vaccine-hesitant people had to be bribed to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
