lawl, is that website from 1995? how "current" could it be, it looks like i did it for a computer class in 7th grade and got an F- on the project.

its bad enough the guy is spewing hate about an awesome man, its even worse he writes for the shittiest news website of all time, well, maybe not as shitty as http://www.foxnews.com/

Vaccines are nothing but poisen and profits for pharmaceutical companies. Don't take them and don't give them to your kids. Better sanitation. cleaner drinking water and better sewage systems are what eradicated the old diseases. Vaccines are stupid little jabs of poisen injected, bypassing your whole immune system, going straight into your blood stream. It's a fear mongering technique to keep people in line with the status quo.
Human teleportation, molecular decimation, breakdown and reformation is inherently purging. It makes a man acute.

shoulda donated it to cancer research or something imo.

Cancer research is hugely inefficient and expensive. Say you cure a 50 year old man of cancer, he has 20-30 more years max. Plus research and development is really expensive and offers no promises of results.

We have the cures for the biggest killers in the third world. No research and development costs, we already did all that when we cured them in the west. It's simply a question of money. And if you vaccinate a baby you get a lifetime out of them.


I suspect you only made that post out of ignorance but whatever. Cancer is pretty much irrelevant on a global scale. The only reason we care about it is because we're so well off that we don't get any of the other shit we can cure. Bill Gates is saving as many lives per dollar as he can and that should not be criticised, especially with some bullshit about cancer.

This kind of stupidity won't just kill your children but may also kill other people's. Humans require herd immunity to prevent epidemics.

It is for this reason I am glad that you pretty much cannot attend school in Britain without having your key vaccines. I can't even begin to understand the level of ignorance required to ignore the facts that vaccines predate pharmaceutical companies, can be seen in nature with related diseases, conform with everything we know about how antibodies work and can (and are) proved on a daily basis.

There was a MMR vaccine scare in Britain a few years ago. The doctor in question has been discredited but the vaccinated population rate went down. Guess what, the disease incidence rose.

It disappoints me to conclude that some people are simply too stupid to exist within a society. Too utterly dense to understand the basics of how the world works. Fortunately my Government has accepted that on a bell curve there will always be those on the retarded fringe and has acted to keep their disease ridden children away from the herd.

I fear that no vaccine will ever be effective enough to contain the spread of HIV. The mutability of all known antigenic targets makes it
A. impossible for your body to defeat HIV.
B. production of a vaccine effective against all strains impossible due to their continually evolving nature.
The only way we will ever eliminate HIV is prevention.

Live to win.

The last pockets of smallpox were wiped out through vaccinations in 1977. Why don't you go to sub-Saharan Africa and ask them how their better sanitation, clean drinking water and sewers are working out for them? After all, if the disease is gone then the conditions that cause it must be gone. They're probably just spending all that aid money on drugs.

God, humanity just makes me so angry sometimes. Seriously, I'm embarassed by genetic association with things like you. If it were up to me you'd be on one of the trains headed east into Poland.

Or by the generation of an artificial immune system through the biotechnology or nanotechnology. Humans are slowly replacing evolved weaknesses with technological solutions. The basic example would be clothes for cold weather, it seems odd but its technological evolution. Whereas in the past we'd wait for a specific genetic mutation to create an AIDs resistant immune system and then let everyone else die out it's possible that in the future relying on your natural immune system would be as strange as relying on lots of food and a high metabolism to keep warm in winter.

AHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA,

and yeah i'd have to agree with kwark, if you get cancer you've probably lived a good life.

Hopefully evolution will grant us some sort of natural immunity to annoying things like cancer one day.

Yep, Big Pharma has me by the balls and I don't even know it! They have almost every other health professional in the country brainwashed too! Oh yeah, and we never landed on the moon.

naw I said cancer research instead of vaccines because there are too many people in the world already. Vaccines for the newcomers is arguably counter productive

You need big families when infant mortality is so high. The problems of poverty, infant mortality, overpopulation and disease are all interrelated. You have as many children as possible because they're your retirement, your bank etc... But every time one dies that's like having your house robbed. It's not just a personal tragedy, it's an investment destroyed. And it's not simply the food and time involved in raising a child either. When you have high birth rates and poor hygiene you also get hit with extremely high rates of mothers dying during childbirth. And they have significant value too.

If you look at it from an economic perspective the way the third world functions at the moment is like pailing water from a leaky boat. There are fundamental problems (ie the leaks) but the short term solutions (like pailing) do nothing to solve them long term. The short term solution to poverty, short lifespans and high mortality through large families is self destructive and wasteful.

What Bill Gates is doing here is plugging a leak. He's not just giving them food. He's not making their life easier for today with a quick cash injection. He's rectifying a fundamental flaw so one day the boat will float.
