Diseases Evolve

It is true that diseases evolve. This is why vaccines do need to change from time to time. Everyone is aware that a different strain of flu comes around periodically. This is the disease that most often changes.

But the flu vaccine is mostly only recommended for the infirm and the elderly. Lives have been saved for those groups of people. Of course, not everyone should be required to receive the flu vaccine. Those more often exposed such as those in the health care industry, would be wise to receive it.

A little common sense would go a long way. It doesn't have to be all or nothing on either side of the vaccine issue. I thank God our medical professionals are required to be vaccinated, that our firefighters and EMT's must be. For their sake, as well as anyone else’s!!  People would be wise to find a little common sense and a little common ground. We should all pay attention to who is going to win by this recent division and distraction regarding vaccines. We should also pay attention to our sources and see from where and what ideology they are coming.
