Very true Al, Listening to LBC this morning, Two programmes both had scientists on them and one lot said yes to vaccinating kids and the other lot said no, If the scientists can't agree, What hope us mere mortals?The Torygraph report today is rather more nuanced.
It says The Saj has instructed Chris Whitty to review the wider benefits to society of vaccinating children. I assume that means medical benefits.
So, they may be following “the science.” This term irritates me as it is clear there are different views about “the science”
That would suppose that the debate is as you describe.To put children at risk - not matter how small that risk is - in order to provide protection to fully grown adults is shameful. It's not even a debate we should be having.
I didn't start the rumour, honest
