And, yes, vaccinations may save lives, but what I'd call unscientific is the willful blindness to 'risk/benefit profiles' exhibited in your posts.
Read yet about GSK's Infanrix used in Italy? Italian Court of Justice Nicola Di Leo ordered that GlaxoSmithKline's confidential report to the Regulatory Authority be made public.
