      You state that measles mortality world wide was over 2 million. I believe that is very deceptive, as in the US it was only 450 according to the CDC. And because on sanitary practices the mortality rate dropped 99% before 1963 when the first vaccine was introduced.

      Millions of people and practitioners have legitimate concerns about vaccination. I wonder if Rabbi Reiss and Dr. Shapiro looked into those concerns before they gave this talk. Please respond to the concerns found in the first three documents on this page:http://icandecide.org/governments/ Any simple person can read this and see that there are serious problems with vaccine safety.
