A very good article. I think the number of vaccines is a bit much nowadays but there are some who believe in none for their children, which puts others at risk: "The modern anti-vaccination scare began in the late 1990s, when a British physician named Andrew Wakefield began warning people that the MMR vaccine (measles, mumps and rubella) causes autism in children. Medical experts refuted his claims, but parents panicked. Vaccination rates in Britain sank from 92 per cent to 73 per cent. Dr. Wakefield’s research has since been widely condemned as a giant fraud, and many of the current crop of measles victims were never vaccinated because of him." theglobeandmail/commentary/measles-is-back-it-had-help/article13359533/
