Grittybeard posted:Unrelated to college football but you're a doctor and all of the Mumps outbreaks in hockey over the last few years have puzzled me. Did those guys just not get MMR vaccines or are they susceptible to breaking down after a while? Or susceptible to like, being bombarded by a bunch of other dudes you're sharing a locker room with who have mumps? This actually made me go to a computer instead of phone postin... Vaccines work on an individual,but for it to be 100% effective, we rely on whats called herd immunity. The idea is that if we vaccinate everyone, we eliminate the medium by which the virus propagates. To establish this herd immunity, it is thought that 95% of a population be vaccinated. This was the norm for many years, but then the Jenny McCarthyism took over and now we have parents thinking for NO REASON WHATSOFUCKING EVER that vaccines cause autism and would rather their child die than be autistic so they don't get vaccinated. So now, the virus is more rampant and the failure in the vaccine rate is increasing, because the success in vaccine rates is related to how many people actually get it. Its so loving stupid that many health care providers have shifted to the point where they view a refusal outside of a valid medical reason to vaccinate is tantamount to child abuse. I am in line with this thinking, and it might be the only way the US overcomes its vaccination problems.

Chicken pox vaccine probably isn't required for all states, it it? (edit: it is) Or may not have been in the early 2000s anyway. I'm only 29 and never got one (I don't think it existed yet, or wasn't in wide use), just earned my immunity the old-fashioned way. edit: So I guess the question is when most states made it mandatory. It was added to the CDC immunization schedule in 1995, but the states aren't beholden to that are they? General Dog fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Aug 15, 2017 |

wa27 posted:...Okay so did these guys not have vaccines or are they ineffective after a while or what? It appears that effectiveness does wane over time. But the effectiveness wanes slowly. Last year Mizzou had a breakout in Frat Row because Frats are filled with disgusting dirty people. If I remember what student health said it was that the MMR vaccine is not 100% effective because nothing is 100% effective. And out of Measles Mumps and whatever R is, the mumps part is the least effective. Two treatments is only something like 86% effective. Well, when everyone has it that 86% effectiveness is pretty great. But when everyone is sharing drinks and poo poo (and some people don't have it or straight up forge vaccination records*) an outbreak can get in a population and stay in it because math. People with the vaccine are nine times less likely to contract mumps than someone unvaccinated. But the fallacy most people make is in believing the vaccine makes it impossible to contract. *I know that sounds crazy, but I have had someone confess to me that they lied about already having the vaccine. Edit: changed Greek to Frat so it didn't sound like I was a Nazi. alpha_destroy fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Aug 15, 2017 |

Vaccines lose efficacy over time but because of herd immunity you rarely see breakouts because between the young and the old it can't establish a foothold and spread. However, if someone that never got vaccinated for whatever reason got it and then was all in and around people who got the vaccine 20 years ago then yea, something might happen. Vaccinated adults don't get something like chickenpox out of the blue essentially. Vaccinated adults in constant close contact with someone who has chickenpox might, though. The notion of that seemingly permanent immunity is kind of false. Everyone typically needs a booster or two for this as they age. Usually, though, provided you don't work with the sick, young, or elderly on a consistent basis you can typically avoid these boosters but people like teachers, nurses, etc. should be getting boosters and staying on top of their schedule.

He said vaccines work on an individual so I didn't see how a given person could get it when they've had the vaccine. The effectiveness waning 20 years later makes sense though, thanks for the explanations.

swickles posted:This actually made me go to a computer instead of phone postin... I particularly love the study championed by Autism Speaks that shows higher incidence of autism in non-vaccinated children, most likely bc many of these unvaccinated children are siblings of autistic children and are subject to the very same genetic and environmental factors that increase their risk. I had to shout down my mother-in-law pretty sternly because she is convinced MMR causes autism. It was not a fun holiday season. And she works in medical research  Also wa27 the herd immunity is The Thing -- part of the effectiveness of vaccines is minimizing the foothold upon which a virus can establish itself within a population. Without, risks of isolated incidents are increased -- vaccinated or not. Thanks to these reactionary morons, we have to worry about loving measles and poo poo again.

One of the biggest factors in choosing a pediatrician was finding a practice that wouldn't take kids who were unvaccinated. Thankfully this is a growing trend, so it didn't really shrink the pool of available practices.

My ped group has a huge writeup that they will not see children that have not been properly vaccinated on the schedule provided by the CDC. I wish selfish fucks would recognize it's a public health issue and not 'are freedumbs' or whatever.

I will second the recommendation for the Oyster House or really any other place along the causeway if you want seafood. Pensacola also has a bunch of really nice restaurants if you're looking for something a little fancier.
