It's okay to allow children to die of VPDs just because some were spared by non-medical interventions? This is supposed to be common sense? How about the thousands of children who died each year due to Hib prior to the vaccine? This disease mortality has absolutely nothing to do with sanitation and improved nutrition and now virtually no deaths since the introduction of the vaccine.Science Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08832263571481452559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3406721589945384372.post-14316923437802080722012-04-23T13:31:07.175-04:002012-04-23T13:31:07.175-04:00Peter Abay et al. has definitively shown mortality...Peter Abay et al. has definitively shown mortality rates jump in the first six months after D,P,or T, or any combo of them (worse for girls) and after polio vaccines.

Epidemiologists and biostatisticians agree that nations reporting just a few infant deaths should be excluded since this translates into extremely wide confidence intervals and IMR instability. Health department policies typically include cautions concerning the use of such data. Please divide the data about the mean IMR value and mean (or median) number of vaccine doses and perform an odds ratio analysis and see if the trend is not confirmed. Please feel free to perform any longitudinal analyses as well and expand the selection of countries if desired. <br /><br />For example, one researcher wrote the following:<br />"I found data on <br />(1) child poverty rates,<br />(2) low birth weights,<br />(3) breast feeding rates,<br />(4) teenage fertility rates,<br />(5) births out of wedlock rates,<br />(6) age at first marriage,<br />(7) percent of divorces with/without children involved,<br />(8) total fertility rates,<br />(9) pertussis incidence rates, and<br />(10) the mother's index<br />on many of the same nations that are given in your article. When I controlled for each of these factors, none of them lowered the partial correlation below 0.62 even though child poverty rate, pertussis vaccination rate, and teenage fertility rate were significant predictors of IMR. This confirms your study's findings very strongly!"Gary S.

Bed sharing is not encouraged, and definitely shouldn't be done when there are any complicating factors, like substance use (including pharmaceuticals that may affect sleep), sleep apnea, or other sleep issues.What Pale Blue Dot?https://www.blogger.com/profile/18389959936049538191noreply@blogger.com
