Vaccines In America

Decent Essays
People all over the world think America is the Greatest Country in the world because centuries ago America was known as a “Free Country”. People who did not live in America always wanted to live in America and wanted to live “The American Dream”. While other people like myself think the opposite. America is not the greatest country in the world because it is not fair to other countries in the work industry, giving them a lower weigh compared to someone who is an American. America lies about vaccines being helpful and lie about it being able to cure certain diseases.
To begin, America does not give full credit to other country’s when it comes to their work industry. For example China, America pays China lower wages than an American gets paid. In the article “The Real Reason the U.S. doesn’t makes IPhone’s” a professor of clinical finance and business economics, Baizhu Chen wrote: “Buying from China is, In fact, Buying American.” Baizhu Chen explains how China allows the American companies such as Apple to hire high paid workers in America.

Getting the vaccine for a certain type of virus, you can still catch the virus if you are vaccinated anyway. 23% of the vaccine is effective out of the 100% and every year during flu seasons everyone is told to get vaccinated right away, to be prevented from viruses. America exaggerates on how well or how effective the vaccine will be just to get the people to go to the doctor and get vaccinated. In January 2015 nasty flu season began, people started to get the flu, and even the ones who were vaccinated. According to agency’s the vaccine shot in early 2015 was not working and was making people worse “many people are getting sick, even if they got their shots as recommended”. This shows that while America lies and exaggerates on how effective the vaccine will be, people still end up

    Unlike the way John Stossel sees it in his documentary, Is America Number One, America is no longer the greatest country in the world. While we are better off than some of the countries that there are out there such as India, a country that is so overpopulated that it is hard to even compare the two countries, we are still not at the top of the list, literally. As we were once known for freedom and equality for all people, incredible political leaders, and rankings far ahead of other countries, we as Americans seem to forget that times have changed and that other countries have caught up to us. One of the main arguments that is brought up when people are asked why America is so great is freedom and equality. Yeah, it is fantastic that we are free but... were not the only ones.…

    I was assigned to be a lawyer agreeing that vaccine should be mandatory. The research that was assigned for my part of the presentation was case studies and laws. Throughout my research I discovered that the state of California now requires children to be vaccinated prior to entering school. If a parent does not want the child to be vaccinated they will have to attend private independent study school from home. However, if a parent wants any child as a pupil of any public or private elementary or secondary school, child care center, day nursery, nursery school, family day care home, or development center, unless prior to his or her admission to that institution he or she has been fully immunized against various diseases, including measles,…

    Vaccines will affect everyone differently, but will help more than harm. They have been able to treat and cause many illnesses, that are latent in our everyday lives. Medical policy making is consistently coupled with politics, financial profits, the medical establishment and the pharmaceutical industry influence vaccine policies to favor interests. The information being released can be accurate; but can also lead citizens to fear vaccines, causing many to believe the information provided is corrupt. This ambiguous information will customarily increase the amount of cynicism towards the idea of mandatory vaccines.…
