Allen suffered "a carotid artery dissection, a tear in the layers of the artery wall that supplies oxygen to the brain—an injury that occurs in a small percentage of high-speed motor vehicle accidents."
MAIN LINE PRIDE!!
At no point were the Africans physically impeded. Had Hall done something to directly impede their progress, he would have been disqualified and it wouldn't have worked anyway. One man simply cannot physically stop five or more runners.
This is my favorite so far
Awesome. "Etz not a toomah eitha."
I really enjoyed this. For just a few seconds I felt like I was watching an early 90's family movie.
OK, here are some fairly recent citations on the topic of risks of vaccine delay/refusal and causes for said delay.
I completely agree with you there.
I patiently gave a very detailed, courteous response to someone in another thread. They got my patience quota for the day. You didn't appear to be open to any dialogue whatsoever, and you were incredibly flippant in your disregard for a disease that affects BILLIONS of people. I noticed after I posted a response to…
And frankly, if you're going to resort to name-calling because I'm calling this person out on their lack of scientific understanding, I think it's pretty clear that your priorities are in reinforcing your personal beliefs, not in becoming educated about science and research.
I don't care if I look like an ass, I care about promoting science literacy and protecting the general population from preventable diseases.
What specific coursework did you complete in neuroscience? My undergraduate degree was spent studying molecular neuroscience, so I'm somewhat confused as to how you came away with this information that no one I took coursework from mentioned. Also, if you had any experience with pharmacology and toxicology, you'd…
Okay, just go ahead and tell the CDC that Hep B is "hardly a menace to society." It's not like it's pretty common in third world countries or anything.
"You did some research"
Sure, why not skip the vaccination for Hep B? It's not like your child's liver is IMPORTANT or anything...
"Parents need to look out for their kids before anyone else's."
I've already shared this twice, but I'm posting it again JUST FOR YOU! <3 I will blame people who are willfully ignorant about science and public health. Maintaining your ego about how well-informed you are about social and public health issues is second to actually keeping people safe. The vaccines are SAFE. All of…
Fun fact, due to the improvement in vaccine technology, the amount of immunoreactive material in current vaccines (the sum of all 49), is actually less than what you got as a child.
According to the CDC, an estimated 1.25 million people are chronically infected with the hepatitis B virus in the United States alone, resulting in an estimated2,000-4,000 deaths each year. Surprisingly, 30%-40% of these chronic infections were acquired during childhood. This fact alone presents a compelling …
