Royal Plea over Third
World Vaccines Campaign - PA News via The Scotsman - "Queen
Rania of Jordan made an impassioned plea today for help to save the lives of one
million children in the poorest parts of the world...The glamorous royal urged
donors to contribute to the work of the Global Alliance for Vaccines and
Immunisation (GAVI) and the Vaccine Fund...Queen Rania, a mother of three, told
guests at the luncheon she had asked her children about vaccinations...Her
daughter had said jabs hurt, but then you get to wear a plaster...'To a child,
wearing a Band Aid is enough to make it all worthwhile.'"
Comment: It's easy to be so pro-vaccine when you are
blissfully unaware of the
100,000+
vaccine-associated reactions, probably
representing well over a million, which have been reported in the United States
alone. But is ignorance really bliss? And can what you don't know
still hurt you?
