    as long as there are significantly less deaths caused by vaccines than deaths that would happen without them, we're fine. Simple benefit vs risk analysis.

      How many deaths are "significantly less"? As to vaccine failures, serious side effects?

        Even if you counted alleged vaccine side effects and deaths as "vaccine failures", those numbers would not be anywhere near the numbers of lives saved directly, not to mention lives saved indirectly. Here's an overview on this: http://www.who.int/bulletin/volumes/86/2/07-040089/en/

          Vaccine failures are just that, the vaccine had no effect. Problem seems to be you don't know what you got until it's too late. What ratio is acceptable to you, and would you be willing to sacrifice a loved one?
