'Crazyshade' indeed. Scientific method smeshthod, if we could only bleed children. Or perhaps a concoction or a poultice administered to the words of a chant?

"Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake; Eye of newt and toe of frog, Wool of bat and tongue of dog, Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg and owlet's wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."

The 20 Most Frequent Objections to Vaccinations – and Responses by Immunisation Experts of the Robert Koch Institute and the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut

1: The effectiveness of vaccinations has never been proven.

According to current pharmaceutical legislation, a vaccine is only licensed when it has been proven that it is effective and well-tolerated. The manufacturer must provide this proof by conducting pre-clinical tests and clinical trials. The results are checked at EU level by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Within Germany, the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut carries responsibility in its role as Federal Institute for Vaccines and Biomedicines.

Moreover, once a vaccine has been licensed, further ongoing studies are conducted to monitor its effectiveness and safety. These studies are often undertaken by the manufacturers but also by independent scientists at universities and research institutes.

Consequently, the effectiveness and safety of vaccines that have been in use for decades, such as measles vaccines, have been demonstrated on millions of people. The fact that it has been possible to successfully reduce the occurrence of measles worldwide and avoid deaths is just one of the ways in which this effectiveness expresses itself.

Another well-known example is the introduction of oral polio vaccination at the beginning of the 1960s. Whilst in Germany in 1961, nearly 4,700 children suffered from polio, by 1965, the figure was down to fewer than 50. Since 1990, there have been no further cases of the disease caused by wild polio viruses (see also answer to Objection 17).

A similar impact was achieved by vaccinating against Haemophilus influenzae (Type B) bacterium which can cause meningitis in babies and toddlers. In the former German Democratic Republic (GDR), where all infection figures were registered very precisely, roughly 100 to 120 cases of meningitis occurred every year prior to 1990. After the introduction of Haemophilus vaccination throughout Germany in 1990, the annual number of cases in the eastern German federal states rapidly fell to fewer than ten annually.
