"Most cases are in the developing world." i.e. where the most vaccines are used per person
Infectious diseases are thought to account for nearly 25% of all deaths worldwide, and extract a disproportionate toll in developing countries
....
Recent developments have countered the pessimism at the end of the last millennium about whether attractive new vaccines could realistically be introduced into developing countries. Despite these developments, resources for introducing new vaccines and sustaining their use in developing countries are still comparatively scarce, and will probably not ever be sufficient to support the use of all new generation vaccines of potential public health utility. Wise use of these funds demands several types of evidence to inform policy decisions.

But the only solution is to not get vaccinated period.

As for the vaccines, there's either a conspiracy to make us all wary of them, or, they really are Nazi eugenics and the majority of us can be easily led off a cliff.

What I don't understand is, how can they make a vaccine for cancer? It's neither a virus, nor a bacterial infection...it's a mutation of your own cells. How can they develop something that's going to go 'hey normal cells...don't get all funky now!"
Are they going to inject you with cancerous cells that will...what- slightly mutate your natural ones so that when you come into contact with something that causes cell mutation...it won't get worse (i mean go into full mutation mode)?
I really just don't understand this. Normal vaccines are bad enough, but this...I'll keep on taking my chances (and deal with the consequences).edit on 8-5-2012 by MzMorbid because: (no reason given)
"The league table shows that high-income countries generally have significantly higher cancer rates than lower income ones. For example, the only non-European countries in the top 20 are Australia, New Zealand, the USA, Canada, Israel, French Polynesia and Uruguay."
