- PRACTICE EVALUATING CLAIMS Social media posts reveal that not everyone agrees on or accepts the important role of herd immunity, as strongly stated in the blog post below. The fact is that CDC works for big pharma/special interests not public safety as the CDC whistle blower documents prove. The fact is that this is about money not public safety. The fact is that some of these vaccines have little benefit/effectiveness and serious risks. The fact is real natural immunity and vaccine derived immunity are not the same thing at all and our babies would be protected from many/most infectious diseases if their mothers were allowed to have natural immunity and pass it to their babies in breast milk, and we had true herd immunity through adults who had lifelong natural immunity. The fact is vaccine induced immunity typically does not hold for long and often misses the target, and the neurotoxins and foreign ingredients/DNA, etc. are causing a generation of allergic/arthritic/immune system…arrow_forward16.
