[QUOTE="Dale00, post: 1303720, member: 688"] Assuming you really wanted an answer: [URL="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/flu-shots/ID00017"]http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/flu-shots/ID00017 [/URL] Vaccines are in a sense victims of their own success. Most people are too young to remember polio and the kid down the block who got it and now is in an iron lung. Because there are not experiences like this around to scare people, they become skeptical and stop getting vaccinated or having their kids vaccinated. But when enough people are unvaccinated, diseases like whooping cough etc can come back. And flu can spread easily, perhaps getting to epidemic scale. [/QUOTE]
