Circular logic. Vaccines can injure people, it's a fact. I've seen it first hand with a relative of mine get an hepatitis from a vaccine. Trying to silent that just foster conspiracy theories, because once trust is lost it's hard to rebuild. So better not lose it by hiding scientific and medical facts.

> Vaccines can injure people Nobody said otherwise. What's being contested is the framing of those who are getting vaccine-derived polio as vaccine injured. They're not. They're side effects of the sterilizing polio vaccine. If they were vaccinated, they wouldn't have been injured. > silent that just foster conspiracy theories, because once trust is lost it's hard to rebuild Nobody is silencing anyone. We're in an era of the opposite of silencing. It's increasingly clear there is a psychographic or political profile that will not get vaccinated, facts be damned. I don't think they should be forced to. But they shouldn't be allowed into the healthcare profession, and they should be restricted from public spaces in healthcare crises. (Countries should also be free to restrict them from entry.)

  This is wrong even on its own logic, which is circular/bad. Someone who gets polio from an oral polio vaccine is vaccinated. That's how they got the infection: from vaccination against polio.

    > Someone who gets polio from an oral polio vaccine is vaccinated Vaccine-derived polio cases are not in the person who got the oral polio vaccine [1]. The vaccine recipients are vaccinated. But they can spread that live, attenuated virus to others. If it keeps spreading--among the unvaccinated or IPV recipients--it can mutate and become dangerous. Eventually, dangerous enough to cause polio. But only to the unvaccinated. The original vaccine recipient isn't injured. They got the attenuated virus. And nobody vaccinated around them is injured, either. It's solely the unvaccinated around them who got the monster that virus mutated into.

  > If they were vaccinated, they wouldn't have been injured. Vaccine-derived polio outbreaks include type 2, the IPV vaccines used in the US since 2000 are only for types 1 and 3. It might help, but it won't be as effective as the older version.
