Ask a grey-haired pediatrician about how many lumbar punctures they used to have to do in a shift for infants that then ended up having Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b) meningitis.

Also, if you did not vaccinate your kids, PLEASE do not lie about it if they need care. It is critical information.
I treated very young kids in my ER who had a fever today.

They're too young to realize how lucky they are to be vaccinated.

Their parents were reminded by me of how wise their choices were, though.

Their being vaccinated meant we had to do FAR less testing and extensive treatments than otherwise.

I really hate when people say “common sense” but they mean they haven’t bothered to learn much about the topic before forming opinions.
