   Ouch.. Yes, some common sense (the least common of all senses?) goes   
   a long way. The vaccines boost your immune system but don't make you   
   totally immune to getting a disease, although if you do get it you   
   often get a milder and shorter case of it..   
      
   There's been so much talk (crap?) lately about how vaccines are   
   bad for you, but now we have things like Measles and Polio coming   
   back. On the news tonight they mentioned one small district that   
   had checked the schools to make sure the kids all had the required   
   vaccine shots, and they ended up telling over 1600 kids to go home   
   and not come back until their shots were up to date.
