Did you know that before polio vaccine was developed, 98 to 99% of people who contracted polio had only a mild illness? It only paralyzed 1 or 2 percent. Would you say that is acceptable?My husband and I have both had measles and rubella as have our 9 siblings and most of our childhood friends. It was common back then and was no biggie.
I’m glad you got rubella out of the way when you were a child. Rubella during pregnancy used to be a major cause of miscarriage and birth defects. Before vaccine, roughly 0.4% of babies were born with rubella-induced defects. The remaining 99.6% of babies were unaffected by rubella. Not bad odds, wouldn’t you say?
