    Andrea is aiming to persuade her audience into revoking mandatory flu vaccinations as a condition of employment for healthcare professionals. She believes that not only are the vaccines not as effective as the CDC presumes, but that forcing healthcare employees to get the flu shot is a direct violation of their human rights and it is unethical. She aims to prove the shots ineffectiveness and how accepting or denying the shot shouldn't dictate someone's career progression. Andrea does a good job addressing opposing view points.…

The purpose of this pamphlet is to inform the audience, which in this case would be parents, to cease vaccinations and to encourage the natural route of immunizations. This pamphlet immediately spits different facts to the audience to convince them of the dangers of vaccines.…
