The advantage of the live attenuated polio vaccine was that the virus could innoculate other non-immunized children who were exposed to a child who was immunized. The inactivated (dead) polio vaccine that we use today does not work this way. (See Polio Pandemia in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

True

False

Which of the following is true? (See MMR & Autism and Review 6 in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

MMR has no link to autism.

MMR is definitely linked to autism.

While vaccines trigger immunity to disease, they weaken the immune system at the same time. (See Acquired Immunity in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

True

False

Which of the statements about mercury (thimerasol) is true? (See Mercury in Vaccines in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

Thimerasol is a vaccine preservative that contains high amounts of methyl mercury.

Thimerasol is used to preserve all vaccines.

Industrial mercury is methyl mercury and is the cause for Minimata Disease.

Thimerasol is risky but required for all vaccines.

What is true about the pneumococcus vaccine? (See Delayed Vaccination in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

It wasn’t always effective below age two.

It has improved significantly in recent years.

It has reduced the frequency of bacterial fevers in children.

It has reduced the number of ear infection over the last thirty years.

All of the these.

Measles contagion and low vaccination rates have together pushed up the trend toward physicians who are refusing to accept unvaccinated patients. (See Measles Contagion in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

True

False

True

False

The hemophilus influenze (Hib) vaccine has done what? (See Delayed Vaccination in Vaccine Education Flipbook.)

Practically eliminated hemophilus meningitis in children.

Significantly reduced the associated bacterial blood infection and fever.

Significantly reduced the incidence of H. flu pneumonia.
