Famous quotes

  • « First love is a kind of vaccination which saves a man from catching the complaint the second time. »
    Honore de Balzac
  • « The rich man's dog gets more in the way of vaccination, medicine and medical care than do the workers upon whom the rich man's wealth is built. »
    Samora Machel
  • « I know children regress after vaccination because it happened to my own son. Why aren't there any tests out there on the safety of how vaccines are administered in the real world, six at a time? Why have only two of the 36 shots our kids receive been looked at for their relationship to autism? »
    Jenny McCarthy
  • « Vaccination is the medical sacrament corresponding to baptism. Whether it is or is not more efficacious I do not know. »
    Samuel Butler
