You love vaccines it seems. I'm old fashioned. The good old amune system.There is a story in Rita Hayworth's biography. She had been on a USO tour, and after entertaining the troops took a lot of photos and gave autographs.
She did not know she was pregnant at the time, and her baby was born developmentally disabled and deaf. Years later she met a former Army nurse, who told her, "I was so excited to see you on the USO tour. I had just been diagnosed with German measles but wanted to see you so badly."
Hayworth didn't know what to say. This young woman had stolen her unborn daughter's chance to lead a "normal" life, without deafness, without developmental disabilities.
Although I don't think the German measles vaccine was available at the time, it showed me how important it is to get vaccinated. You never know whose life you may inalterably harm by not doing so.
