→Dubious claims from liberal newsmagazine: Mutated polio virus
:: Thanks for another excellent observation, ThomasB. By the way, often vaccine manufacturers get big tax write-offs by dumping their stale or defective vaccine products on the Third World. Recently the vaccine caused a tragic epidemic of polio in one African country.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 21:19, 5 January 2008 (EST)

::: Careful what you write, please, Aschafly. The vaccine that caused the (small, local) epidemic of polio was a polio vaccine one which contained a rare mutation in the attenuated polio virus<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7037462.stm</ref>. Nothing at all to do with HPV or with "dumping" "defective" vaccines. Loose talk about vaccines can cost lives by creating ill-founded hysteria. [[User:KennyMac|KennyMac]] 18:22, 12 August 2008 (EDT)
