      "A lot of these vaccines are unnecessary." Really Robert? Which ones? Since 1986, of the 8 vaccines added to the schedule, 3 protect against bacterial meningitis (a deadly disease) & 2 are cancer preventing vaccines (hep B & HPV) https://t.co/ZJiID6CpGb

      Prior to universal Hep B vaccination, only high risk people received the vaccine with no change in Hep B incidence. After universal vaccination, Hep B dropped dramatically. Why? Bc 1 million live with Hep B in the US & many do not know they have it. https://t.co/F5achCBbMt https://t.co/kKBtpuez2n
