In France, between 2000 and 2016 the proportion of French people who no longer trust vaccines increased from 10 to 25%.
The world he attributes this mistrust to medical scandals that are not necessarily related to a particular vaccine but to various drugs. For example, a treatment for diabetes, which was also recommended for cutting appetite, killed 500 French people in a period of 30 years. In July 2017, the government decided to tighten vaccine legislation. From 2018, 11 vaccines will be mandatory for children, compared to only 3 at present.
Currently, 4 out of 5 children are vaccinated, says the Minister of Health:“These vaccines are already on children’s health records. The idea is that 15% of children are not vaccinated and endanger others. From January 1, they become mandatory to protect the entire population. But we leave time for the families to do them, we will not push people to get vaccinated urgently “.
So why do they become mandatory?
Because I’m doing really well. For example: in 1958, the polio vaccine was introduced in France. The result: in 70 years, the number of registered cases has dropped from 1,600 to zero. The same happened in the case of rubella: 35 cases registered per hundred thousand inhabitants, at the beginning of vaccination and now there is only one case.
In fact, no other health policy has had such a significant impact on reducing mortality and increasing birth rates in France. Just the sewer introduction.
The National Public Health Agency estimates that in order to eradicate a disease, between 80% and 95% of the population must be vaccinated, depending on the severity of the situation. With this level we get what doctors call “Group immunity”. In short: the number of people who could infect a group has automatically decreased. Therefore, a vaccinated person also protects those who, for various reasons, cannot be vaccinated: for example, a newborn who is less than 2 months old, a person who has medical contraindications or one with a low immune system.
Another example: the vaccine against pneumococcus allowed a 38% reduction in infections in unvaccinated elderly due to its administration to infants.
Diphtheria, a disease that can be fatal, especially for children, caused 3,000 deaths in 1945. Since the vaccine became mandatory the following year, the incidence of the disease has dropped significantly and today diphtheria has virtually disappeared from the Hexagon.
But, of course, there are side effects, many say. And it’s true. All vaccines have real reactions. But, they are benign. There is one exception: hepatitis B, for which doctors still have some doubts. The reason: out of 25 million vaccinated people, several hundred cases of multiple sclerosis have been reported. Even so, the vaccine will become mandatory, but only for newborns, but not for adults. Or, no sclerosis has ever been reported for any babycomplicated in plates.
