| Someone wrote to me and said "Your picture of the girl with polio might be more convincing if she weren't from a third-world country". This attitude, that other people's children don't matter, is typical of the people opposed to vaccination. To the rest of us it is a tragedy and a scandal that any child, anywhere in the world, should suffer the effects of a crippling, deforming and life threatening disease when a safe, effective means of preventing the disease has been available for half a century. |
