Re: Flu vax risks

 If "There is terror in numbers"  is all you've came away with from Huff's "How to Lie with Statistics"? book - I'm sure you didn't read the book.  What I've posted is not about just "numbers", it's about the powerful tool of probabilities analysis.  Read one of Huff's other books:  "How to Take a Chance: The Laws of Probability"

I am not distorting or misrepresenting any numbers as I've quoted nothing but well documented large scale incidence statistics about GBS and traffic deaths from public sources.
 
I invite you to fully realize the strength applying probability in the critical analysis of risk and decision making.  Rational decision making can often be supported by probabilities analysis. It can successfully negate the detrimental influences of biased agendas, logical fallacies, unsupported blind beliefs, preconceived conclusions, purposeful dissemination of misinformation, old wives' tales, post-modernist paradigms, blatant implausibilities, urban legends, superstitions and cultural memes.  Continuing  to focus on a very small number, or just a single incidence in this case, of vaccination related side effects in relation to the vast numbers of uneventful vaccination administrations reflects fallacious reasoning.  Fallacious reasoning can hide verifiable truths, and failing to think critically makes us highly vulnerable to manipulation by those in the media who are highly skilled in the art of deceptive rhetoric like Mike Adams and Joe Mercola.
