When Finley gets his vaccinations, it kills me, and you can't protect yourself from that. My heart is being ripped out with every shot. It's a deeper level of emotion that I wasn't prepared to feel, but it's completely amazing. It has opened me up both as a person and as an actress. Everything has a deeper meaning now.

Childfree women are actually great assets to the planet. Our carbon footprint is smaller than a mom's! And we have enough money to write checks to organizations that help kids get vaccinations, vitamins, and educations yet have plenty of free time to advise your daughter that one day she will regret piercing her lip.

American Comedian

Mikhail Varshavski

Think about old people; think about young people, those with immune system problems. They can't really protect themselves well against the flu, so by you limiting the spread of the flu and getting vaccinated, you're helping protect them as well.

American Celebrity

Nancy Gibbs

Across much of the developing world, by the time she is 12, a girl is tending house, cooking, cleaning. She eats what's left after the men and boys have eaten; she is less likely to be vaccinated, to see a doctor, to attend school.

American Journalist

Jim Jefferies

I don't care if people get angry about that, believing the rubbish that vaccinations cause trouble or make the child worse or something. That's not what I believe. I think it's important for me to say.

Australian Comedian

Ezekiel Emanuel

Vaccines are the most cost-effective health care interventions there are. A dollar spent on a childhood vaccination not only helps save a life, but greatly reduces spending on future healthcare.

American Scientist

Eula Biss

Yes, there's a higher rate of people living below the poverty line who aren't vaccinated. But it's much rarer for that to be a product of choice than a product of circumstance.

American Writer

Michael Specter

When most members of a community are vaccinated, they protect those who are not by eliminating the viral reservoirs in the population. The effect is known as 'herd immunity.

Jonas Gahr Store

I experienced how foreign aid for large-scale vaccination projects helps to save the life of children and thus give a real input to growth and to escaping poverty.

Vaccination is the single most important step people can take to protect themselves from influenza.

American Public Servant

Vaccinate implies an action that should be done to prevent disease, often urgently.

Action Required

Emphasizes the preventative aspect rather than the process of getting a shot - the goal is safety.

Protection Focus

Often used in the context of public health campaigns or recommendations.

Public Health Context

Indicates the care given to animals to preserve their health and prevent disease transmission.

Animal Health

In animal populations, vaccinating contributes to overall herd immunity, not just individual protection.

Herd Immunity

Often a regular and routine procedure in the care of livestock and pets.

Routine Procedure

 Unlike variolation, which used actual smallpox virus to try to protect people, vaccination used the far less dangerous cowpox virus. The medical establishment, cautious then as now, deliberated at length over his findings before accepting them. But eventually vaccination was gradually accepted
