[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are stupid enough (yes stupid) to think that vaccinations somehow weaken the immune system or cause illness, you have no business working with children.  
This argument is just absurd.
 If you coincidentally get sick the year, or the week, after you get the flu shot, that is all it is, COINCIDENCE. Do some research, stop using your own anecdotal references as some sort of actual fact. [/quote]

+ 100. Nanny here ( already posted). I'm so sick of uneducated people saying vaccines are ineffective or lead to illness. They have no business being a nanny of they are unwilling to be vaccinated. I will never work for family that doesn't vaccinate. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Signed - A nanny and future pharmacist. [/quote]

The two of you cheapen your argument with name calling.

TO the future pharmacist I hope  your offline personality is far better than your online one- you'll come into contact with many people who do not share your views as a pharmacist , and you won't last long in your job if you call them all stupid.[/quote]

+1 I was on board until you repeated the word "stupid". *cringe*[/quote]

I'm inclined to [b]call a spade a spade[/b]. Apologies if it offends  :roll: [/quote]

[b]THis is off topic, but that phrase (bolded) is also considered a racial slur.  Just so you know when you might be offending someone if you choose to...   It's in the same category as using "gypped" or "sell someone down the river[/b]".[/quote]

[b]Sorry to get even more off topic, but this is not true. The term dates back to early Greek confusion over the words for the noun "spade," trough or basin and the verb "to dig." The term "spade" was not used in a racial context until hundreds of years later. [/b]

To be more on topic, I side with the pro-vaxxers here [/quote]

Sure, it may date to then, however it became a slur and is considered offensive by at least some african americans I know.  Not all perhaps, but enough, just as with the other examples and many other colloquially used phrases.[/quote]
