I'm interested to see the experimental evidence that you have to back up that statement. If you read my comment, you will see that I comment on taking simultaneous vaccines. For many vaccines, antigens for eliciting an antibody response to several diseases are combined into one formulation.
10,000 is probably 2-3 orders of magnitude greater than the number of different vaccines available on any market, so attacking or defending that number has no utility. And commenting as if that were my point detracts from the conversation.
It's much more interesting to think about how his work likely saves hundreds of lives each day, and to contemplate what we can do in our own lives to have such a great impact at such a large scale.
- enraged_camel 13y agoYou misunderstand. Every vaccine contains several grams of fluid. 10,000 injected into your body all at once would kill you.
- ghshephard 13y agoThe useful part of the vaccine is on the order of micrograms. 10,000 * a single vaccine would be on the order of milligrams. The goal of a vaccine is to introduce molecular geometries that cause your body to react and form antibodies - you don't need a lot of liquid volume to accomplish that objective.
