Ouch.. Yes, some common sense (the least common of all senses?) goes
a long way. The vaccines boost your immune system but don't make you
totally immune to getting a disease, although if you do get it you
often get a milder and shorter case of it..

There's been so much talk (crap?) lately about how vaccines are
bad for you, but now we have things like Measles and Polio coming
back. On the news tonight they mentioned one small district that
had checked the schools to make sure the kids all had the required
vaccine shots, and they ended up telling over 1600 kids to go home
and not come back until their shots were up to date.
