Gerry, I am sorry but I have to disagree. It states " The large number of participants will also provide additional information on vaccine safety. The study represents an important step in understand ing the impact on an entire community ......etc."

It may be semantics BUT I think the safety issue is EXTREMELY important. We are testing on 15.000 CHILDREN . How many new drugs have you heard of being tested on such a large population of kids???

This may be a bad example but how many have died from the misuse of Viagra?? They had no idea this would happen until after it was used by THOUSANDS of men.

Would you volunteer your child??? Even though I own stock I would not. I don't care how many studies they have done. I would wait until this one is completed. I know this probably sounds hypocritical but that is the way I feel.
