I was just following orders in voting for this heroin addict. I wanted to get along, to fit in, and didn't want all the nasty tweets with my name in them...

If you're going to let your newborn mainline heroine, I'd say go ahead and get them the shot.

Risks of the hepatitis B vaccine for newborns are minor. Temporary side effects like soreness, redness, or swelling at the injection site, mild fever, and fussiness. Serious side effects are rare.

Hepitis B, on the other hand, can destroy a liver.

And be passed on to others by an unvaccinated baby who grows up

The point is they don't need it. Maybe give it when they start school if you're that concerned about it.

Sounds exactly like what you said when they were handing out brains. It's just too bad you never did get to "start school".

The hepatitis B vaccine is given to newborns primarily to prevent perinatal transmission from an infected mother during birth, as up to 90% of infants infected at birth develop chronic hepatitis B, leading to severe liver damage, cirrhosis, or cancer later in life.

You didn't understand the sentence?

"Retarded"?

Ypu're alive to be a fascist in part because someone loved you enough to vaccinate you.

They made a mistake?

Vaccinations are taken when you don't need them.

When the infant comes down with Hep B it is too late.

But hey, what do actual doctors know compared to an internet troll?

"Republican Senator Urges CDC Director to Reject Vaccine Panel's Hepatitis B"

It used to be that a Republican with no expertise would try to interfere with the experts. Now it's the other way around. Welcome to Trump world.
