00:09:03,960 that's the that I guess it's that's the 225 00:09:10,670 --> 00:09:08,100 the dark side yeah of anti-vaccination 226 00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:10,680 is that it pervades through to the to 227 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:12,570 the really ignorant areas where you're 228 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:14,250 actually trying to do it where they can 229 00:09:19,820 --> 00:09:17,610 they can blame

00:17:03,080 tend to get speakers in already see us 404 00:17:07,180 --> 00:17:05,420 more an informal chat and at the moment 405 00:17:09,730 --> 00:17:07,190 we're we're much more informal about to 406 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:09,740 sit around and just chinwag and the 407 00:17:14,860 --> 00:17:12,890 topics are amazingly varied not always 408 00:17:17,590 --> 00:17:14,870 skeptical but always interesting yeah 409 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:17,600 for sure excellent talking about varied 410 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:19,850 topics and that was the smoothest segue 411 00:17:26,380 --> 00:17:23,530 in the history of podcasting I'm sure um 412 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:26,390 though 14 talks yesterday at Brisbane 413 00:17:32,700 --> 00:17:29,330 skepta camp and there's a fairly wide 414 00:17:36,070 --> 00:17:32,710 range of different topics covered we had 415 00:17:39,940 --> 00:17:36,080 swordsmanship we had the placebo effect 416 00:17:43,930 --> 00:17:39,950 we had why people believe non-scientific 417 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:43,940 claims um we had chris stevenson talking 418 00:17:49,210 --> 00:17:46,210 about skeptical weight loss methods 419 00:17:52,510 --> 00:17:49,220 which i'm assuming don't involve taking 420 00:17:54,460 --> 00:17:52,520 census limb and we also had parenting 421 00:17:57,070 --> 00:17:54,470 skeptically and the lauren here 422 00:17:58,970 --> 00:17:57,080 presented that one yes now that was a 423 00:18:01,700 --> 00:17:58,980 definitely an interesting topic as 424 00:18:03,380 --> 00:18:01,710 said in my talk yesterday it's it's been 425 00:18:05,150 --> 00:18:03,390 three years since i first fell pregnant 426 00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:05,160 and just the last three years 427 00:18:10,730 --> 00:18:07,440 particularly it's just amazing how much 428 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:10,740 crap parents are yet acted to it really 429 00:18:15,770 --> 00:18:13,890 is I mean I've also spoken about this 430 00:18:17,750 --> 00:18:15,780 and strangely enough Lauren and I 431 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:17,760 managed to have barely any crossover and 432 00:18:22,940 --> 00:18:19,530 what we spoke about there's that much of 433 00:18:25,490 --> 00:18:22,950 it 20 minutes each and and we've got a 434 00:18:28,130 --> 00:18:25,500 lot more lined up as well we do we want 435 00:18:29,630 --> 00:18:28,140 to do an announcement I I think we can I 436 00:18:36,260 --> 00:18:29,640 mentioned yesterday at the end of our 437 00:18:40,930 --> 00:18:36,270 talk that might all yours me and all my 438 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:40,940 multiple personality onstage no I Joe 439 00:18:47,150 --> 00:18:43,770 myself at ellison Gaylord Heidi 440 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:47,160 Robertson cat steel and Shelley stockin 441 00:18:51,350 --> 00:18:49,650 are going to be writing a book called 442 00:18:53,270 --> 00:18:51,360 parenting skeptically or something 443 00:18:54,890 --> 00:18:53,280 similar we haven't started on a title 444 00:18:56,870 --> 00:18:54,900 yet but it's basically going to be 445 00:18:58,270 --> 00:18:56,880 having a look at all the pseudoscience 446 00:19:00,590 --> 00:18:58,280 and old wives tales surrounding 447 00:19:03,710 --> 00:19:00,600 pregnancy & parenting and hopefully 448 00:19:06,890 --> 00:19:03,720 giving new mums and dads a bit of a 449 00:19:08,780 --> 00:19:06,900 handy guide to evaluating dodgy claims 450 00:19:11,180 --> 00:19:08,790 and you know it's I think it's really 451 00:19:14,510 --> 00:19:11,190 really critical for people raising kids 452 00:19:15,830 --> 00:19:14,520 to be aware that there is so much dodgy 453 00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:15,840 claims and [\h__\h] up there that they 454 00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:17,760 need to be well yeah i agree i mean 455 00:19:23,900 --> 00:19:20,370 we've had discussions in the past about 456 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:23,910 a lot of books you know along the lines 457 00:19:29,299 --> 00:19:25,250 of what to expect when you're expecting 458 00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:29,309 etc just there are some doggy things in 459 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:30,809 there and there's a sort of the gold 460 00:19:34,700 --> 00:19:32,610 standard that's not looking at sort of 461 00:19:38,380 --> 00:19:34,710 alternative kind of ideas or anything 462 00:19:41,630 --> 00:19:38,390 but the mainstream books not necessarily 463 00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:41,640 advice you'd want to follow but there 464 00:19:46,010 --> 00:19:44,160 were so many great talks yesterday and 465 00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:46,020 it's all you know all credits for these 466 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:48,030 guys for the fantastic curation that 467 00:19:52,669 --> 00:19:51,330 made him beforehand I just hadn't good 468 00:19:54,409 --> 00:19:52,679 to hear a couple of people like Loretta 469 00:19:57,169 --> 00:19:54,419 Marin and chris stevenson and of course 470 00:19:58,580 --> 00:19:57,179 have you know lots of public speaking 471 00:20:02,210 --> 00:19:58,590 experience particularly at these sort of 472 00:20:03,980 --> 00:20:02,220 skeptical and even atheists events and 473 00:20:06,950 --> 00:20:03,990 then even just to have you know new 474 00:20:08,710 --> 00:20:06,960 speakers like myself and Allison Allison 475 00:20:10,590 --> 00:20:08,720 gala yes you know 476 00:20:14,950 --> 00:20:10,600 from the Northern Rivers vaccination 477 00:20:17,169 --> 00:20:14,960 supporters sorry I was staring at an 478 00:20:19,029 --> 00:20:17,179 Ibis there are 0 vs we're sitting in a 479 00:20:21,070 --> 00:20:19,039 park here in the botanical gardens in 480 00:20:23,740 --> 00:20:21,080 Brisbane at the moment I was staring at 481 00:20:27,460 --> 00:20:23,750 an Ibis Northern Rivers vaccination 482 00:20:30,750 --> 00:20:27,470 supporters um she gave an absolutely 483 00:20:33,490 --> 00:20:30,760 wonderful talk I'm going to admit here i 484 00:20:37,210 --> 00:20:33,500 teed up a little bit um she was 485 00:20:40,090 --> 00:20:37,220 discussing what it is what it's like for 486 00:20:44,020 --> 00:20:40,100 her living in an area with incredibly 487 00:20:46,510 --> 00:20:44,030 low vaccination rates and a lot of 488 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:46,520 anti-vaccination sort of people in her 489 00:20:52,330 --> 00:20:50,210 community and the fact that her 490 00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:52,340 daughter's contracted whooping cough 491 00:20:57,970 --> 00:20:54,110 although they are immunized herd 492 00:21:00,070 --> 00:20:57,980 immunity being very low in the area they 493 00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:00,080 copped it she copped it and that 494 00:21:05,940 --> 00:21:02,960 experience when you're hearing that from 495 00:21:10,990 --> 00:21:05,950 somebody who's had at first hand is 496 00:21:14,350 --> 00:21:11,000 actually quite confronting she did a 497 00:21:15,490 --> 00:21:14,360 wonderful job and also made me laugh a 498 00:21:19,330 --> 00:21:15,500 couple of times which is always 499 00:21:23,169 --> 00:21:19,340 wonderful we also had on Heidi Wyatt who 500 00:21:26,020 --> 00:21:23,179 was discussing chiropractors and I 501 00:21:28,289 --> 00:21:26,030 wasn't quite aware of how much of a 502 00:21:31,149 --> 00:21:28,299 lifestyle kind of involvement is in 503 00:21:32,770 --> 00:21:31,159 chiropractic practice it was very 504 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:32,780 surprising wasn't it and it was 505 00:21:37,149 --> 00:21:35,090 extremely interesting to get the inside 506 00:21:40,120 --> 00:21:37,159 scoop so to speak from someone on on the 507 00:21:42,490 --> 00:21:40,130 other side who actually has this very 508 00:21:44,110 --> 00:21:42,500 personal experience yeah you know with 509 00:21:46,990 --> 00:21:44,120 this kind of thing and it just shows you 510 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:47,000 you know from her talk how these kind of 511 00:21:52,360 --> 00:21:49,730 alternative modalities they they lock 512 00:21:54,130 --> 00:21:52,370 you in you know by making it a large 513 00:21:55,419 --> 00:21:54,140 dollar I'm sure it's all part of the 514 00:21:57,580 --> 00:21:55,429 business plan that they have yes 515 00:22:00,909 --> 00:21:57,590 certainly and just hearing about that 516 00:22:03,549 --> 00:22:00,919 annual treatment package that they 517 00:22:05,740 --> 00:22:03,559 offered yes paying in advance for a 518 00:22:07,870 --> 00:22:05,750 year's worth of chiropractic treatment 519 00:22:10,230 --> 00:22:07,880 which meant you get sort of i think it 520 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:10,240 was a weekly or bi-weekly adjustment and 521 00:22:16,330 --> 00:22:14,210 then as you go if something happens to 522 00:22:18,490 --> 00:22:16,340 you say you tripped down the stairs or 523 00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:18,500 something such you can go in and have 524 00:22:22,450 --> 00:22:22,130 that adjustment and they keep ya return 525 00:22:26,620 --> 00:22:22,460 to 526 00:22:30,630 --> 00:22:26,630 wasn't quite aware that it was that 527 00:22:35,290 --> 00:22:30,640 involved but Heidi was telling us this 528 00:22:39,190 --> 00:22:35,300 because her experience prior to I guess 529 00:22:43,570 --> 00:22:39,200 getting involved in well being skeptical 530 00:22:45,820 --> 00:22:43,580 of chiropractic ideas she was actually a 531 00:22:47,740 --> 00:22:45,830 chiropractor's assistant and I frankly 532 00:22:50,770 --> 00:22:47,750 really appreciate that people are 533 00:22:54,340 --> 00:22:50,780 willing to talk about things from their 534 00:22:58,450 --> 00:22:54,350 past that aren't necessarily things that 535 00:23:01,240 --> 00:22:58,460 sort of our skeptics where I know down 536 00:23:03,850 --> 00:23:01,250 with I guess I was very impressed that a 537 00:23:06,310 --> 00:23:03,860 lot of people there were sharing their 538 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:06,320 sort of war stories I think of the sort 539 00:23:10,300 --> 00:23:07,850 of the previous life you know and yeah 540 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:10,310 and then the other side or that sort of 541 00:23:12,970 --> 00:23:11,570 you know that the woo communicate 542 00:23:16,150 --> 00:23:12,980 community if you want to put it that way 543 00:23:17,860 --> 00:23:16,160 and it especially to a group of skeptics 544 00:23:20,950 --> 00:23:17,870 you to be able to admit that I think is 545 00:23:22,510 --> 00:23:20,960 very useful as a group to to understand 546 00:23:23,950 --> 00:23:22,520 those experiences because if we don't 547 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:23,960 understand then we're never going to me 548 00:23:28,630 --> 00:23:26,450 out to fight effectively against it 549 00:23:31,120 --> 00:23:28,640 absolutely and also another thing I 550 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:31,130 appreciated was on Loretta more on from 551 00:23:36,850 --> 00:23:34,010 the Friends of science in medicine was 552 00:23:39,610 --> 00:23:36,860 talking to us about friends of science 553 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:39,620 in medicine and she mentioned a couple 554 00:23:44,590 --> 00:23:42,890 of times that not necessarily everybody 555 00:23:46,810 --> 00:23:44,600 who is not heard of medicine 556 00:23:48,940 --> 00:23:46,820 practitioner is either out to fool 557 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:48,950 people or out to harm people are out to 558 00:23:54,780 --> 00:23:51,170 take their money and I think that that's 559 00:23:59,020 --> 00:23:54,790 incredibly important to keep in mind 560 00:24:01,060 --> 00:23:59,030 it's easy to view people as sort of have 561 00:24:03,610 --> 00:24:01,070 a very cynical outlook on some 562 00:24:04,990 --> 00:24:03,620 practitioners perhaps thinking that you 563 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:05,000 know there are two common people or take 564 00:24:11,830 --> 00:24:09,650 their money etc but generally I think it 565 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:11,840 might be handy to keep give people the 566 00:24:15,970 --> 00:24:13,250 benefit of the doubt and think okay 567 00:24:18,070 --> 00:24:15,980 we'll they've fallen for this to whether 568 00:24:19,540 --> 00:24:18,080 they have a responsibility to understand 569 00:24:22,150 --> 00:24:19,550 that it's not necessarily something 570 00:24:25,360 --> 00:24:22,160 that's evidence based or not is another 571 00:24:27,460 --> 00:24:25,370 story but generally people do tend to 572 00:24:29,890 --> 00:24:27,470 have good intentions I think I might 573 00:24:31,810 --> 00:24:29,900 just be a bit optimistic I imagine that 574 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:31,820 customers or patients are not sure 575 00:24:35,500 --> 00:24:33,770 whether they refer to them as either um 576 00:24:38,620 --> 00:24:35,510 Warren would quite 577 00:24:39,700 --> 00:24:38,630 ants may feel quite obliged to keep 578 00:24:41,140 --> 00:24:39,710 going throughout the year because 579 00:24:43,420 --> 00:24:41,150 they've already paid for it and they're 580 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:43,430 making more of an emotional investment 581 00:24:48,580 --> 00:24:47,450 in the treatment because of that so 582 00:24:51,580 --> 00:24:48,590 they're more likely to make another 583 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:51,590 financial investment i'm not sure you're 584 00:24:57,070 --> 00:24:54,410 emotionally and financially invested in 585 00:24:59,980 --> 00:24:57,080 this enterprise mmm when it comes time 586 00:25:04,480 --> 00:24:59,990 to renew all it was also interesting 587 00:25:06,300 --> 00:25:04,490 Heidi was discussing um basically how 588 00:25:10,150 --> 00:25:06,310 she had a bit of a turn around and 589 00:25:13,090 --> 00:25:10,160 stopped believing in subluxation theory 590 00:25:14,650 --> 00:25:13,100 and started doubting the idea of 591 00:25:17,500 --> 00:25:14,660 chiropractic and I find this story is 592 00:25:20,740 --> 00:25:17,510 absolutely fascinating I because I spent 593 00:25:24,100 --> 00:25:20,750 a lot of time wondering how we can 594 00:25:26,410 --> 00:25:24,110 approach people talk to people and sort 595 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:26,420 of very gently challenge their beliefs 596 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:28,970 that aren't necessarily evidence-based 597 00:25:32,860 --> 00:25:31,610 without putting them off side I mean 598 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:32,870 you're always going to polarize some 599 00:25:37,630 --> 00:25:35,570 people and push them away by suggesting 600 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:37,640 that what they have invested in isn't 601 00:25:43,360 --> 00:25:40,970 necessarily real wood you know 602 00:25:46,090 --> 00:25:43,370 evidence-based but it was a very good 603 00:25:47,530 --> 00:25:46,100 portion Airy tale about almost how not 604 00:25:49,750 --> 00:25:47,540 to approach it I mean she was very 605 00:25:52,300 --> 00:25:49,760 specific in saying her husband I believe 606 00:25:54,340 --> 00:25:52,310 is the one who yet had been skeptical I 607 00:25:57,060 --> 00:25:54,350 think for the entirety of her 608 00:25:59,620 --> 00:25:57,070 involvement and she said if he had been 609 00:26:01,260 --> 00:25:59,630 confronting and a bit more aggressive 610 00:26:03,610 --> 00:26:01,270 about it she probably would have never 611 00:26:06,370 --> 00:26:03,620 got to the position she is today and it 612 00:26:09,250 --> 00:26:06,380 was through gentle sort of persistence 613 00:26:10,690 --> 00:26:09,260 really and you know I ever said this all 614 00:26:13,660 --> 00:26:10,700 the time don't he's planting the seed 615 00:26:15,850 --> 00:26:13,670 yeah and eventually it's bound to grow 616 00:26:19,150 --> 00:26:15,860 even if it's only in one in every ten 617 00:26:21,820 --> 00:26:19,160 people we talked to me yeah I found that 618 00:26:23,470 --> 00:26:21,830 valuable in John cooks talk how he was 619 00:26:26,530 --> 00:26:23,480 talking out that the ways that people 620 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:26,540 can have science communicated to them in 621 00:26:34,330 --> 00:26:28,850 a what was the analogy he was using 622 00:26:36,820 --> 00:26:34,340 vitamins and his ideas on sticky you 623 00:26:40,120 --> 00:26:36,830 know sticky information estd science was 624 00:26:43,150 --> 00:26:40,130 I think very valuable to for the 625 00:26:46,390 --> 00:26:43,160 skeptics to take note on because he's 626 00:26:48,810 --> 00:26:46,400 very good at presenting information in a 627 00:26:50,850 --> 00:26:48,820 way which is very media friendly and 628 00:26:52,289 --> 00:26:50,860 is very general public friendly and we 629 00:26:53,850 --> 00:26:52,299 could definitely learn a few lessons 630 00:26:56,580 --> 00:26:53,860 from the way he's dealing with climate 631 00:27:00,299 --> 00:26:56,590 change denial in other aspects of things 632 00:27:02,460 --> 00:27:00,309 that were tackling and so I understand 633 00:27:04,139 --> 00:27:02,470 that the talks we've just been 634 00:27:06,269 --> 00:27:04,149 discussing here are they going to be 635 00:27:08,159 --> 00:27:06,279 available online for people to listen to 636 00:27:10,769 --> 00:27:08,169 a watch

--> 00:33:16,550 you the science you need to know most of 782 00:33:20,470 --> 00:33:18,340 us know the number pi is a mathematical 783 00:33:23,140 --> 00:33:20,480 constant that relates the circumference 784 00:33:24,430 --> 00:33:23,150 of the circle to its diameter but what's 785 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:24,440 this number used for in the real world 786 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:32,090 let's find out pi is found in many 787 00:33:37,060 --> 00:33:34,250 mathematical formulas especially where 788 00:33:38,980 --> 00:33:37,070 curves are involved but it is also used 789 00:33:40,830 --> 00:33:38,990 in many applied fields of science such 790 00:33:43,570 --> 00:33:40,840 as engineering astronomy 791 00:33:45,700 --> 00:33:43,580 telecommunications and statistics for 792 00:33:48,010 --> 00:33:45,710 instance the construction of any curved 793 00:33:50,650 --> 00:33:48,020 surface requires engineers and 794 00:33:52,810 --> 00:33:50,660 architects to use PI in order to get the 795 00:33:54,670 --> 00:33:52,820 pieces to fit together but it is also 796 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:54,680 used to calculate the structural 797 00:33:59,140 --> 00:33:56,930 strength of beams and columns power 798 00:34:00,940 --> 00:33:59,150 outputs of machinery and even 799 00:34:03,180 --> 00:34:00,950 engineering problems associated with 800 00:34:06,450 --> 00:34:03,190 vibrations 801 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:06,460 in astronomy pi has been used for 802 00:34:10,530 --> 00:34:08,410 hundreds of years to calculate orbits 803 00:34:13,020 --> 00:34:10,540 and distances between objects in our 804 00:34:15,090 --> 00:34:13,030 solar system and beyond closer to home 805 00:34:16,890 --> 00:34:15,100 pi is essential for navigation and 806 00:34:19,310 --> 00:34:16,900 global positioning because our planet is 807 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:19,320 spherical and moves in a circular orbit 808 00:34:24,690 --> 00:34:22,090 pi is even used in some fields to 809 00:34:26,610 --> 00:34:24,700 calculate probability statistical 810 00:34:30,150 --> 00:34:26,620 distributions are normally described by 811 00:34:32,370 --> 00:34:30,160 you guessed it curves and pi can be used 812 00:34:34,620 --> 00:34:32,380 to create virtual simulations and 813 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:34,630 finally if you're tuning into a whiz 814 00:34:39,300 --> 00:34:37,570 this week by Wi-Fi or radio the waves 815 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:39,310 carrying our signal also have a 816 00:34:45,270 --> 00:34:41,650 fundamental relationship with pine and 817 00:34:49,740 --> 00:34:45,280 now for fast facts about PI of the 818 00:34:51,390 --> 00:34:49,750 mathematical kind pi is also a very 819 00:34:53,670 --> 00:34:51,400 special number because its decimal 820 00:34:55,710 --> 00:34:53,680 representation never descends into a 821 00:34:59,040 --> 00:34:55,720 repeating pattern it just goes on 822 00:35:02,040 --> 00:34:59,050 forever today pi is being calculated to 823 00:35:03,780 --> 00:35:02,050 over 10 trillion digits pies both an 824 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:03,790 irrational and transcendental number 825 00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:06,010 meaning no two numbers can be multiplied 826 00:35:11,190 --> 00:35:09,250 together to make pie 41 digits of pi is 827 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:11,200 enough to calculate the circumference of 828 00:35:16,170 --> 00:35:13,330 visible universe to a margin of error 829 00:35:18,060 --> 00:35:16,180 equal to the width of a proton that's it 830 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:18,070 for this week in science for more 831 00:35:25,860 --> 00:35:21,010

I'd like to tell you about a time in our 857 00:37:22,270 --> 00:37:19,430 history not so long ago when parents 858 00:37:24,550 --> 00:37:22,280 live with the very real fear that at any 859 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:24,560 time their children could succumb to the 860 00:37:29,260 --> 00:37:27,130 deadly effects of infectious diseases 861 00:37:32,290 --> 00:37:29,270 I'd like to tell you what it was like 862 00:37:34,990 --> 00:37:32,300 back then but I really can't I wasn't 863 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:35,000 there i was born after the widespread 864 00:37:38,590 --> 00:37:36,530 introduction of vaccinations for 865 00:37:40,930 --> 00:37:38,600 diseases such as pertussis which is 866 00:37:43,859 --> 00:37:40,940 whooping cough diphtheria rubella 867 00:37:48,849 --> 00:37:43,869 tuberculosis and infantile paralysis 868 00:37:51,730 --> 00:37:48,859 polio mellitus polio so we need to hear 869 00:37:53,950 --> 00:37:51,740 from people who were there people who 870 00:37:56,380 --> 00:37:53,960 even lost members of their family and 871 00:37:59,260 --> 00:37:56,390 not just babies and children to diseases 872 00:38:01,210 --> 00:37:59,270 we hardly hear about today we'll also 873 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:01,220 hear from some others about some of the 874 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:03,650 fears and misconceptions both real and 875 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:06,410 invented about modern vaccination that 876 00:38:10,270 --> 00:38:08,330 seems as there's no end of bad 877 00:38:14,170 --> 00:38:10,280 information out there especially on the 878 00:38:16,599 --> 00:38:14,180 internet but now let's hear from some 879 00:38:22,789 --> 00:38:16,609 people who have seen firsthand the 880 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:27,529 my mother died of TB at the age of 19 881 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:31,650 and I was 15 months old I never ever 882 00:38:38,749 --> 00:38:35,130 newer never knew my mother and her two 883 00:38:44,029 --> 00:38:38,759 brothers in periods varying periods 884 00:38:47,689 --> 00:38:44,039 after that died of the same disease they 885 00:38:51,469 --> 00:38:47,699 I think what one was up to about 10 or 886 00:38:56,089 --> 00:38:51,479 11 years after that but everybody had 887 00:39:01,099 --> 00:38:56,099 just about you know it was it was just 888 00:39:06,650 --> 00:39:01,109 like measles was too late to to add to 889 00:39:09,469 --> 00:39:06,660 the next generation and um but they did 890 00:39:12,319 --> 00:39:09,479 anyway once you get rid of these things 891 00:39:15,169 --> 00:39:12,329 you don't want to get them back you want 892 00:39:18,769 --> 00:39:15,179 them and you wanted to stay out like 893 00:39:24,019 --> 00:39:18,779 smallpox things like that that we don't 894 00:39:27,559 --> 00:39:24,029 have anymore but we did have them this 895 00:39:31,370 --> 00:39:27,569 is early 50s and I'm about five or six 896 00:39:35,029 --> 00:39:31,380 and I can remember sitting at the dining 897 00:39:39,199 --> 00:39:35,039 table and there's a doctor talking to my 898 00:39:42,979 --> 00:39:39,209 father who's standing up and the doctors 899 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:42,989 telling my dad my sister's my baby 900 00:39:49,069 --> 00:39:46,170 sister's got polio and the look of 901 00:39:51,709 --> 00:39:49,079 horror on his face and I can hear my 902 00:39:56,929 --> 00:39:51,719 mother sobbing in the bedroom because 903 00:39:59,829 --> 00:39:56,939 this is the worst possible news and I 904 00:40:03,319 --> 00:39:59,839 remember going up to Townsville hospital 905 00:40:07,489 --> 00:40:03,329 the three of us to go and visit miss my 906 00:40:10,130 --> 00:40:07,499 baby sister and she's lying in a bed in 907 00:40:13,339 --> 00:40:10,140 a hospital ward and the in it appeared 908 00:40:16,519 --> 00:40:13,349 to my child's brain there were dozens of 909 00:40:19,099 --> 00:40:16,529 kids and this was a polio ward this 910 00:40:21,319 --> 00:40:19,109 wasn't all the illnesses and accidents 911 00:40:25,699 --> 00:40:21,329 that were around this was an entire Ward 912 00:40:28,489 --> 00:40:25,709 devoted to children as luck would have 913 00:40:31,219 --> 00:40:28,499 it she was well cared for and she 914 00:40:34,730 --> 00:40:31,229 recovered but I can remember going to 915 00:40:37,589 --> 00:40:34,740 school about the same time 916 00:40:39,299 --> 00:40:37,599 and it was after the holidays and we all 917 00:40:41,279 --> 00:40:39,309 get back and we're saying hello to kids 918 00:40:44,089 --> 00:40:41,289 that we hadn't seen for a few weeks and 919 00:40:47,069 --> 00:40:44,099 I saying where's Billy where's Tommy and 920 00:40:50,549 --> 00:40:47,079 someone said I'll they've got the polio 921 00:40:52,950 --> 00:40:50,559 and that was all people needed to say 922 00:40:55,529 --> 00:40:52,960 because you knew that you'd probably 923 00:40:58,410 --> 00:40:55,539 never see them again and I never did and 924 00:41:01,769 --> 00:40:58,420 I gather they died there was a girl in 925 00:41:07,470 --> 00:41:01,779 my class who had calipers as a result of 926 00:41:10,740 --> 00:41:07,480 polio I remember I started that school 927 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:10,750 in first class so she must have had it 928 00:41:17,309 --> 00:41:14,890 when she was much younger and also I 929 00:41:20,009 --> 00:41:17,319 remember a friend of Mines father who'd 930 00:41:22,109 --> 00:41:20,019 had polio he had one really withered 931 00:41:25,140 --> 00:41:22,119 League you know it was like half the 932 00:41:27,779 --> 00:41:25,150 size of the the other leg and he had 933 00:41:32,069 --> 00:41:27,789 this funny gate there to sort of 934 00:41:36,720 --> 00:41:32,079 accommodate for that well when I was 11 935 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:36,730 that was 1951 I just felt very sick one 936 00:41:41,999 --> 00:41:39,970 day at school I went home and my mother 937 00:41:46,019 --> 00:41:42,009 did while awkward mothers would do put a 938 00:41:49,049 --> 00:41:46,029 child to bed I had a very high fever and 939 00:41:53,039 --> 00:41:49,059 my back was aching I was really very 940 00:41:55,460 --> 00:41:53,049 very sick the doctor was called and I 941 00:41:59,069 --> 00:41:55,470 can remember the doctor checking out 942 00:42:00,599 --> 00:41:59,079 arms and legs bending and also the 943 00:42:03,690 --> 00:42:00,609 doctor asked me to sit up which was very 944 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:03,700 painful and to put my chin on my chest 945 00:42:10,950 --> 00:42:08,410 and I couldn't do that and immediately 946 00:42:13,710 --> 00:42:10,960 he said to my parents she must go to 947 00:42:16,109 --> 00:42:13,720 hospital it was the water base hospital 948 00:42:19,769 --> 00:42:16,119 it was 25 miles away 40 kilometres away 949 00:42:22,950 --> 00:42:19,779 and a spinal tap revealed that I had 950 00:42:26,519 --> 00:42:22,960 polio this was absolutely horrifying 951 00:42:29,819 --> 00:42:26,529 because there hadn't been any cases of 952 00:42:31,529 --> 00:42:29,829 polio in my little town at all they'd 953 00:42:35,670 --> 00:42:31,539 been one in the country a young fellow 954 00:42:37,799 --> 00:42:35,680 age 34 a farmer and he died and the 955 00:42:41,059 --> 00:42:37,809 whole town was reeling and now here was 956 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:41,069 Monica was polio where did I get it from 957 00:42:48,349 --> 00:42:45,450 nobody knows well my mother was 958 00:42:53,150 --> 00:42:48,359 nurse before marriage and she nursed in 959 00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:53,160 isolation hospitals and she saw Geron 960 00:43:04,970 --> 00:42:58,050 dying of tuberculosis polio the 961 00:43:08,900 --> 00:43:04,980 diphtheria and other diseases my father 962 00:43:11,810 --> 00:43:08,910 was the eldest of five children when he 963 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:11,820 was twenty nineteen thirty-nine his only 964 00:43:16,609 --> 00:43:14,130 sister the youngest in the family died 965 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:16,619 of diphtheria at the age of two and a 966 00:43:22,819 --> 00:43:20,010 half so I was brought up with stories of 967 00:43:25,069 --> 00:43:22,829 kids dying of diphtheria those my mother 968 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:25,079 had seen and under course my father's 969 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:27,690 experience I'm the oldest of six 970 00:43:33,470 --> 00:43:30,570 children when the youngest was born we 971 00:43:37,550 --> 00:43:33,480 hadn't been cough I remember my little 972 00:43:40,339 --> 00:43:37,560 baby sister gasping for breath a little 973 00:43:42,950 --> 00:43:40,349 surge black surgical belt around her 974 00:43:45,650 --> 00:43:42,960 belly holding in her navel which had 975 00:43:48,470 --> 00:43:45,660 become herniated as a result of the 976 00:43:50,450 --> 00:43:48,480 strain of a coughing she was very 977 00:43:53,150 --> 00:43:50,460 seriously ill and these days almost 978 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:53,160 certainly would be hospitalized but 979 00:43:56,510 --> 00:43:55,170 they're my mother having been the next 980 00:43:59,329 --> 00:43:56,520 nurse that probably thought that 981 00:44:01,970 --> 00:43:59,339 choosers well looked after at home as 982 00:44:06,050 --> 00:44:01,980 otherwise and I remember the whooping 983 00:44:08,930 --> 00:44:06,060 cough the hmm and then the coughing and 984 00:44:11,450 --> 00:44:08,940 then the the vomiting must be very hard 985 00:44:14,980 --> 00:44:11,460 for my mother just having given birth to 986 00:44:18,710 --> 00:44:14,990 a child now me to look after 66 kids 987 00:44:21,220 --> 00:44:18,720 sick kids as well a personal example 988 00:44:24,290 --> 00:44:21,230 from our family is my cousin Phillip 989 00:44:26,030 --> 00:44:24,300 when he was young he July by 3rd he's 990 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:26,040 late came back to his parents and said 991 00:44:31,309 --> 00:44:29,130 I've got a sorely they panicked the 992 00:44:32,930 --> 00:44:31,319 first thought was polio took him to the 993 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:32,940 doctor no problem at all odd numbers 994 00:44:36,650 --> 00:44:35,130 hurt himself and falling over two days 995 00:44:38,599 --> 00:44:36,660 later his very best friend Frank who 996 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:38,609 lived two streets away had the same 997 00:44:43,579 --> 00:44:41,490 experience he fell over saw leg his 998 00:44:46,250 --> 00:44:43,589 parents took him to the doctor I leo 999 00:44:48,589 --> 00:44:46,260 Frank died in 2012 it's been his life in 1000 00:44:50,630 --> 00:44:48,599 a wheelchair this was a very very scary 1001 00:44:51,890 --> 00:44:50,640 disease and people were very very 1002 00:44:55,730 --> 00:44:51,900 worried about it 1003 00:44:58,579 --> 00:44:55,740 with Madhu with good cause i remember 1004 00:45:01,940 --> 00:44:58,589 when i was in nimbin working as a 1005 00:45:04,069 --> 00:45:01,950 medical student helping a doctor and in 1006 00:45:07,130 --> 00:45:04,079 came so i was just work experience part 1007 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:07,140 of the medical rotation and in came to 1008 00:45:12,620 --> 00:45:09,690 parents and this kid 16 your kid 1009 00:45:14,690 --> 00:45:12,630 obviously from the way he was walking 1010 00:45:16,519 --> 00:45:14,700 here at poly i was a very characteristic 1011 00:45:19,460 --> 00:45:16,529 walk quite different from a Parkinson's 1012 00:45:22,220 --> 00:45:19,470 walk from a stroke walk quite obvious 1013 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:22,230 and we looked at each other and we 1014 00:45:25,069 --> 00:45:23,490 didn't say a single thing the doctor and 1015 00:45:27,230 --> 00:45:25,079 I and then they went through the story 1016 00:45:28,430 --> 00:45:27,240 about how they just come back from India 1017 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:28,440 and then the doctor asked a few 1018 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:31,410 questions and he said and have you been 1019 00:45:36,859 --> 00:45:34,170 jack side against polio no and he said 1020 00:45:41,269 --> 00:45:36,869 only did you test and then he said look 1021 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:41,279 is pretty obvious to me that your child 1022 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:43,410 has polio and the parents got a shop 1023 00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:46,170 said they didn't want to believe they 1024 00:45:49,579 --> 00:45:47,730 started firstly being rational and 1025 00:45:51,559 --> 00:45:49,589 saying things like well there's no such 1026 00:45:53,269 --> 00:45:51,569 diseases polio and then they started 1027 00:45:54,529 --> 00:45:53,279 saying things like well I'm polio 1028 00:45:55,819 --> 00:45:54,539 doesn't exist anymore because we all 1029 00:45:58,279 --> 00:45:55,829 live better there is no infectious 1030 00:46:00,890 --> 00:45:58,289 disease such as polio and you can't get 1031 00:46:02,900 --> 00:46:00,900 it and then they started kicking chairs 1032 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:02,910 a little bit and then stormed out they 1033 00:46:07,279 --> 00:46:05,010 did not want to live for the fact that 1034 00:46:10,609 --> 00:46:07,289 by not vaccinating their kid against 1035 00:46:16,010 --> 00:46:10,619 polio they had been paralyzed a kid in 1036 00:46:18,079 --> 00:46:16,020 one leg by taking him to India so with 1037 00:46:21,410 --> 00:46:18,089 water base hospital there really was no 1038 00:46:25,370 --> 00:46:21,420 treatment for a person with polio I had 1039 00:46:28,630 --> 00:46:25,380 a high fever and I was just put onto a 1040 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:28,640 flatbed no pillow and told to stay there 1041 00:46:33,890 --> 00:46:30,930 and I can I was too sick to go anywhere 1042 00:46:37,430 --> 00:46:33,900 anyway so I just stayed there and 1043 00:46:41,450 --> 00:46:37,440 eventually I was moved out onto a 1044 00:46:44,359 --> 00:46:41,460 veranda because more people needed to be 1045 00:46:47,210 --> 00:46:44,369 inside people who no longer had a fever 1046 00:46:50,900 --> 00:46:47,220 were being moved onto verandahs I mean 1047 00:46:54,740 --> 00:46:50,910 unenclosed verandas with Just Cause and 1048 00:46:57,799 --> 00:46:54,750 blind down but always near me was a 1049 00:47:00,440 --> 00:46:57,809 horrible barrel looking thing which they 1050 00:47:02,510 --> 00:47:00,450 said to me was an iron lung and they 1051 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:02,520 said that I might need that because the 1052 00:47:07,100 --> 00:47:03,850 polio i had was 1053 00:47:09,930 --> 00:47:07,110 in the throat and in my speech I 1054 00:47:13,230 --> 00:47:09,940 couldn't swallow couldn't talk properly 1055 00:47:17,190 --> 00:47:13,240 and that's the one that tends to go down 1056 00:47:19,170 --> 00:47:17,200 into the lungs very quickly and so I was 1057 00:47:21,420 --> 00:47:19,180 really thrilled one day when the the 1058 00:47:24,060 --> 00:47:21,430 iron lung wasn't there because I thought 1059 00:47:26,550 --> 00:47:24,070 oh good I don't need it anymore but of 1060 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:26,560 course somebody did and I can remember 1061 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:29,770 the 50s where people lived in dread of 1062 00:47:34,740 --> 00:47:31,930 these terrible illnesses that just took 1063 00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:34,750 so many people walk through an old 1064 00:47:38,700 --> 00:47:36,730 cemetery and look at the headstones of 1065 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:38,710 who died and how old and you're looking 1066 00:47:47,650 --> 00:47:42,010 at babies that die and that's that's 1067 00:47:52,900 --> 00:47:49,779 at the beginning of the 20th century 1068 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:52,910 infant mortality in Australia was over 1069 00:47:59,170 --> 00:47:56,210 ten percent can you imagine it more than 1070 00:48:02,799 --> 00:47:59,180 one in ten babies died many of those 1071 00:48:04,450 --> 00:48:02,809 from vaccine-preventable diseases what 1072 00:48:08,940 --> 00:48:04,460 would their parents have given to 1073 00:48:15,490 --> 00:48:12,160 reports like these were commonplace in 1074 00:48:19,150 --> 00:48:15,500 the newspapers of the time it was sad 1075 00:48:21,370 --> 00:48:19,160 but no surprise to anyone over the 1076 00:48:23,740 --> 00:48:21,380 course of the 20th century important 1077 00:48:26,530 --> 00:48:23,750 health measures were introduced that saw 1078 00:48:31,230 --> 00:48:26,540 this mortality rate plummet chief 1079 00:48:34,770 --> 00:48:33,600 I'd like to read to you something I 1080 00:48:37,500 --> 00:48:34,780 discovered while I was doing research 1081 00:48:43,100 --> 00:48:37,510 for this documentary and this comes from 1082 00:48:46,950 --> 00:48:43,110 the Perth Daily News dated april 1903 1083 00:48:48,870 --> 00:48:46,960 coughing dislocates a neck in certifying 1084 00:48:51,180 --> 00:48:48,880 a child's death to the Southard coroner 1085 00:48:53,100 --> 00:48:51,190 a medical man reports that the deceased 1086 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:53,110 had been under treatment for whooping 1087 00:48:58,350 --> 00:48:56,170 cough death was due to a broken neck and 1088 00:49:00,300 --> 00:48:58,360 in the absence of any definable cause 1089 00:49:03,090 --> 00:49:00,310 the doctor was forced to the conclusion 1090 00:49:08,090 --> 00:49:03,100 that the child dislocated its neck 1091 00:49:09,870 --> 00:49:08,100 during a violent fit of coughing I 1092 00:49:11,550 --> 00:49:09,880 remember when I was in the first batch 1093 00:49:13,650 --> 00:49:11,560 of kids in Wollongong to get vaccinated 1094 00:49:15,780 --> 00:49:13,660 we all got put on buses in primary 1095 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:15,790 school and then got shipped down to the 1096 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:17,290 pioneer hall and then they stabbed all 1097 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:19,930 of us and in my class there was a kid 1098 00:49:25,380 --> 00:49:23,410 who had calipers and there were two more 1099 00:49:28,170 --> 00:49:25,390 kids in the school who had been hit by 1100 00:49:30,210 --> 00:49:28,180 polio Polly I only gets about half a 1101 00:49:32,310 --> 00:49:30,220 percent of everybody that infects so it 1102 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:32,320 infects the population only about half a 1103 00:49:35,580 --> 00:49:33,970 percent of them actually come down with 1104 00:49:37,140 --> 00:49:35,590 the neurological symptoms and these are 1105 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:37,150 the three kids from our school and was 1106 00:49:42,690 --> 00:49:40,330 only years later so I realized that all 1107 00:49:45,060 --> 00:49:42,700 the parents standing around had 1108 00:49:46,890 --> 00:49:45,070 deliberately as an act of the society 1109 00:49:48,690 --> 00:49:46,900 giving up the chance to have them 1110 00:49:52,380 --> 00:49:48,700 vaccinated and protected against polio 1111 00:49:55,109 --> 00:49:52,390 so that we their children could get 1112 00:49:59,040 --> 00:49:55,119 saved what a generous bunch of parents 1113 00:50:01,950 --> 00:49:59,050 he was about a year after my sister came 1114 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:01,960 home there was an announcement that a 1115 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:07,290 vaccine had been invented for polio and 1116 00:50:13,050 --> 00:50:10,690 it was like a huge cloud had been lifted 1117 00:50:16,109 --> 00:50:13,060 from the suburbs because they're being 1118 00:50:18,090 --> 00:50:16,119 this cloud of gloom and doom it was the 1119 00:50:20,580 --> 00:50:18,100 dread that your child would be the next 1120 00:50:24,180 --> 00:50:20,590 to come down with polio and at last it 1121 00:50:26,220 --> 00:50:24,190 was hope and it very soon after all of 1122 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:26,230 us kids were taken up to the school and 1123 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:28,810 we were lined up on the verandas around 1124 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:31,770 100 of us and we all got our jabs and 1125 00:50:37,890 --> 00:50:35,890 polio just disappeared the gloom had 1126 00:50:40,140 --> 00:50:37,900 lifted and it wasn't even a subject for 1127 00:50:43,740 --> 00:50:40,150 discussion anymore and you saw the 1128 00:50:44,460 --> 00:50:43,750 occasional child or adult with calipers 1129 00:50:46,890 --> 00:50:44,470 and so on 1130 00:50:49,380 --> 00:50:46,900 but that's all there was palio just 1131 00:50:52,670 --> 00:50:49,390 disappeared as if it was magic but it 1132 00:50:55,620 --> 00:50:52,680 wasn't magic it was science at work 1133 00:50:57,870 --> 00:50:55,630 these days the decision to vaccinate is 1134 00:51:00,300 --> 00:50:57,880 not a hard one but some people aren't 1135 00:51:02,490 --> 00:51:00,310 convinced in a way vaccination has 1136 00:51:05,010 --> 00:51:02,500 become a victim of its own success with 1137 00:51:07,410 --> 00:51:05,020 people wondering why why in this day and 1138 00:51:08,970 --> 00:51:07,420 age why would they vaccinate because 1139 00:51:11,250 --> 00:51:08,980 diseases like whooping cough although 1140 00:51:14,070 --> 00:51:11,260 dramatically decreased are still with us 1141 00:51:15,870 --> 00:51:14,080 and are still claiming lives and yet 1142 00:51:17,849 --> 00:51:15,880 there are people especially in developed 1143 00:51:20,790 --> 00:51:17,859 countries with low rates of infection 1144 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:20,800 who are vehemently opposed to 1145 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:23,050 vaccination claiming it's responsible 1146 00:51:30,270 --> 00:51:26,410 for everything from autism to SIDS to 1147 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:30,280 even shaken baby syndrome unbelievably 1148 00:51:36,750 --> 00:51:32,410 some people deny vaccination has 1149 00:51:40,530 --> 00:51:36,760 prevented any disease whatsoever there's 1150 00:51:43,230 --> 00:51:40,540 almost no data for for significant 1151 00:51:45,589 --> 00:51:43,240 damage caused by vaccines any more than 1152 00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:45,599 anyone having an injection of any sort 1153 00:51:51,990 --> 00:51:48,730 most of those reactions to injections 1154 00:51:54,300 --> 00:51:52,000 are caused by fainting if your child's 1155 00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:54,310 not vaccinated that's fine as long as no 1156 00:51:58,140 --> 00:51:55,690 one else comes to this country and 1157 00:51:59,820 --> 00:51:58,150 brings the disease with them if someone 1158 00:52:02,880 --> 00:51:59,830 comes in from another country or the 1159 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:02,890 virus gets away some other way that it's 1160 00:52:07,620 --> 00:52:04,930 possible that the an epidemic can occur 1161 00:52:09,599 --> 00:52:07,630 and of course most of these ill many of 1162 00:52:10,770 --> 00:52:09,609 these awesome perhaps not all them but 1163 00:52:13,980 --> 00:52:10,780 many of these illnesses are 1164 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:13,990 life-threatening and if you have fifteen 1165 00:52:19,950 --> 00:52:17,770 percent of the infant population getting 1166 00:52:21,780 --> 00:52:19,960 a disease like measles you're going to 1167 00:52:24,930 --> 00:52:21,790 have deaths and there will be a number 1168 00:52:26,339 --> 00:52:24,940 of deaths measles can be a is a 1169 00:52:29,720 --> 00:52:26,349 life-threatening illness and of course 1170 00:52:32,099 --> 00:52:29,730 polio much more so tetanus diphtheria 1171 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:32,109 whooping cough whooping coughs you know 1172 00:52:35,970 --> 00:52:34,210 it's quite a high mortality and because 1173 00:52:39,089 --> 00:52:35,980 Polly has a very high mortality in a 1174 00:52:41,430 --> 00:52:39,099 very long morbidity and so if you if we 1175 00:52:44,870 --> 00:52:41,440 have 50 70 and fifty percent of our 1176 00:52:47,310 --> 00:52:44,880 population susceptible to these offices 1177 00:52:49,140 --> 00:52:47,320 then of course you know all sorts of 1178 00:52:52,349 --> 00:52:49,150 disasters going to occur for for the 1179 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:52,359 children and so you by not vaccinating 1180 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:54,970 your child you only put your own child 1181 00:52:58,740 --> 00:52:56,770 at risk but you put at risk 1182 00:53:00,930 --> 00:52:58,750 who have also gone to the trouble of 1183 00:53:03,150 --> 00:53:00,940 being vaccinated because some of them 1184 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:03,160 because of the immune system or whatever 1185 00:53:08,490 --> 00:53:05,050 will actually be susceptible to the 1186 00:53:10,170 --> 00:53:08,500 disease one of the persistent myths 1187 00:53:12,450 --> 00:53:10,180 about vaccines and the dangers of 1188 00:53:14,720 --> 00:53:12,460 vaccines is that vaccination causes 1189 00:53:17,100 --> 00:53:14,730 autism or certain vaccines cause autism 1190 00:53:20,700 --> 00:53:17,110 there have been dozens of studies done 1191 00:53:23,450 --> 00:53:20,710 that have shown no connection what the 1192 00:53:26,790 --> 00:53:23,460 connection is or is simply coincidence 1193 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:26,800 autism is detected at about the age when 1194 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:28,290 some of the earlier vaccines are given 1195 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:30,010 it's not something you can usually 1196 00:53:34,470 --> 00:53:31,690 detect early but something in some cases 1197 00:53:37,860 --> 00:53:34,480 you can there's just been a recent study 1198 00:53:39,420 --> 00:53:37,870 done where I'm an analysis of as many 1199 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:39,430 studies do you get followed by a new 1200 00:53:43,500 --> 00:53:41,890 academic Sydney University and what he 1201 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:43,510 found was that when you put them all 1202 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:45,010 together and collect all the information 1203 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:47,770 you just became stronger it is no 1204 00:53:51,810 --> 00:53:48,970 connection between vaccinations and 1205 00:53:54,030 --> 00:53:51,820 autism so it can be can be detected 1206 00:53:56,250 --> 00:53:54,040 early at the normal type of detection 1207 00:53:57,570 --> 00:53:56,260 and just to do normally do with the 1208 00:53:59,400 --> 00:53:57,580 developmental stages of children that 1209 00:54:01,920 --> 00:53:59,410 they don't show the signs of autism 1210 00:54:03,540 --> 00:54:01,930 until they're about sometimes like two 1211 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:03,550 or three years old and that's when as 1212 00:54:08,010 --> 00:54:06,490 they get low back scenes it's a myth and 1213 00:54:10,620 --> 00:54:08,020 some myth which should be stomped on and 1214 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:10,630 should stop your being repeated but 1215 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:12,210 there's people out there who are 1216 00:54:17,250 --> 00:54:15,370 bitterly opposed to vaccination and they 1217 00:54:19,940 --> 00:54:17,260 have all sorts of reasons they object to 1218 00:54:22,890 --> 00:54:19,950 the science they object to the 1219 00:54:24,810 --> 00:54:22,900 socialization of it but the thing is 1220 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:24,820 they don't know what it's like I'm one 1221 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:26,770 of the last of the generation that saw 1222 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:29,290 these things right up close I saw it in 1223 00:54:35,070 --> 00:54:31,690 my father's face I saw it in my mother's 1224 00:54:37,290 --> 00:54:35,080 I still I saw it in my school friends 1225 00:54:41,580 --> 00:54:37,300 who wore calibers or just I never saw a 1226 00:54:44,100 --> 00:54:41,590 game it just doesn't happen today why 1227 00:54:46,380 --> 00:54:44,110 are these people so bitterly opposed to 1228 00:54:50,070 --> 00:54:46,390 vaccination I don't know what they're 1229 00:54:53,990 --> 00:54:50,080 talking about it's they have all these 1230 00:54:57,210 --> 00:54:54,000 reasons that just don't make sense 1231 00:54:59,490 --> 00:54:57,220 they're just rubbish get your child 1232 00:55:02,880 --> 00:54:59,500 vaccinated see a real doctor not a cream 1233 00:55:05,550 --> 00:55:02,890 see a real doctor get their immunization 1234 00:55:07,740 --> 00:55:05,560 program get them up to date keep them up 1235 00:55:12,110 --> 00:55:07,750 to date and you won't see what I saw 1236 00:55:16,590 --> 00:55:13,830 the first thing to realize about 1237 00:55:18,720 --> 00:55:16,600 vaccinations is that they were invented 1238 00:55:21,500 --> 00:55:18,730 by human beings they're not perfect 1239 00:55:23,820 --> 00:55:21,510 nothing made by humans is perfect but 1240 00:55:26,310 --> 00:55:23,830 overwhelmingly the odds are in your 1241 00:55:28,230 --> 00:55:26,320 favor if you get vaccinated I've got my 1242 00:55:29,490 --> 00:55:28,240 kids vaccinated I tell everybody get 1243 00:55:32,070 --> 00:55:29,500 their bitten kids back so they're not 1244 00:55:35,010 --> 00:55:32,080 perfect you'll have a fever maybe maybe 1245 00:55:37,170 --> 00:55:35,020 some to the other thing overwhelmingly 1246 00:55:39,300 --> 00:55:37,180 the odds are in your favor simply 1247 00:55:41,670 --> 00:55:39,310 because nothing made by humans is 1248 00:55:46,980 --> 00:55:41,680 perfect the odds are in your favor get 1249 00:55:50,100 --> 00:55:46,990 vaccinated it's so important I'm just 1250 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:50,110 just a little needle and then their 1251 00:55:56,150 --> 00:55:53,290 children they've taken away all the 1252 00:55:59,040 --> 00:55:56,160 worry against them getting these things 1253 00:56:02,730 --> 00:55:59,050 you think they might die I remembered to 1254 00:56:06,780 --> 00:56:02,740 it to my children having whooping cough 1255 00:56:10,530 --> 00:56:06,790 together and that was a very worrying 1256 00:56:12,540 --> 00:56:10,540 time if our grandmothers knew that there 1257 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:12,550 was a treatment or prevention for the 1258 00:56:17,700 --> 00:56:15,010 diseases that their children died from 1259 00:56:21,050 --> 00:56:17,710 and we weren't accessing those they 1260 00:56:23,430 --> 00:56:21,060 would kick us from here into next week 1261 00:56:25,860 --> 00:56:23,440 the diseases we've been talking about 1262 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:25,870 can affect children for the rest of 1263 00:56:30,900 --> 00:56:28,090 their lives even when all the symptoms 1264 00:56:32,790 --> 00:56:30,910 are gone part of the disease can linger 1265 00:56:36,150 --> 00:56:32,800 in the body for decades only to return 1266 00:56:40,410 --> 00:56:36,160 later in life a very nasty visitor from 1267 00:56:43,550 --> 00:56:40,420 the past now poliomyelitis polio 1268 00:56:47,430 --> 00:56:43,560 infantile paralysis it's been called to 1269 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:47,440 involves the muscles it involves the 1270 00:56:51,570 --> 00:56:49,690 paralysis of the muscles and often these 1271 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:51,580 are the muscles of the lungs the 1272 00:56:56,190 --> 00:56:53,770 breathing apparatus in a person that's 1273 00:56:58,410 --> 00:56:56,200 affected so in order for a person to 1274 00:57:02,250 --> 00:56:58,420 stay alive it was necessary to put polio 1275 00:57:06,210 --> 00:57:02,260 victims into an iron lung and this force 1276 00:57:08,370 --> 00:57:06,220 the air into and out of a person and for 1277 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:08,380 many many people lying on their back 1278 00:57:14,070 --> 00:57:10,450 flat on their back looking at the world 1279 00:57:16,950 --> 00:57:14,080 through a mirror eating in there was 1280 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:16,960 their life many people who went into 1281 00:57:19,660 --> 00:57:18,970 iron lungs never ever came out of iron 1282 00:57:22,059 --> 00:57:19,670 lungs 1283 00:57:24,460 --> 00:57:22,069 but many people did spend their entire 1284 00:57:25,990 --> 00:57:24,470 life in there and they might have been 1285 00:57:27,609 --> 00:57:26,000 allowed out just a little while with 1286 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:27,619 assisted breathing to have a shower how 1287 00:57:34,180 --> 00:57:30,530 to bar the sponge bath go to the toilet 1288 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:34,190 perhaps but most spent their lives after 1289 00:57:38,770 --> 00:57:36,650 they were in an iron lung and stayed 1290 00:57:40,809 --> 00:57:38,780 there I understand that very few came 1291 00:57:43,660 --> 00:57:40,819 out of them in some hospitals there were 1292 00:57:47,589 --> 00:57:43,670 rooms full of iron lungs helping people 1293 00:57:50,980 --> 00:57:47,599 to breathe without awful sound of 1294 00:57:54,700 --> 00:57:50,990 compression and like a pump going to 1295 00:57:56,470 --> 00:57:54,710 pump air into people and out of people I 1296 00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:56,480 think they've been refined in recent 1297 00:57:59,559 --> 00:57:57,890 times I don't know what there is because 1298 00:58:02,500 --> 00:57:59,569 there's just not the incidence of polio 1299 00:58:05,319 --> 00:58:02,510 around but it was certainly an horrific 1300 00:58:07,450 --> 00:58:05,329 thing to see an iron lung waiting for 1301 00:58:09,970 --> 00:58:07,460 you at the end of your bed and this is 1302 00:58:11,470 --> 00:58:09,980 what you may need and I was very 1303 00:58:16,750 --> 00:58:11,480 determined to get well so I didn't need 1304 00:58:19,030 --> 00:58:16,760 a nine-month one of our latest vaccines 1305 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:19,040 for newest vaccines has been the herpes 1306 00:58:23,650 --> 00:58:21,410 zoster virus vaccine which is the 1307 00:58:28,450 --> 00:58:23,660 purpose hasta is the virus that causes 1308 00:58:32,140 --> 00:58:28,460 chickenpox and can recur later and come 1309 00:58:35,770 --> 00:58:32,150 out as as shingles which is a rather 1310 00:58:38,170 --> 00:58:35,780 nasty inflammation of the skin so 1311 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:38,180 children or people who are infected with 1312 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:42,530 chickenpox the tuna pox virus after the 1313 00:58:48,339 --> 00:58:44,210 illnesses over the chicken pox virus 1314 00:58:51,819 --> 00:58:48,349 doesn't completely leave us it it hides 1315 00:58:54,130 --> 00:58:51,829 in the in the roots of our nerves what's 1316 00:58:56,170 --> 00:58:54,140 called the ganglia of the nerve so you 1317 00:58:58,930 --> 00:58:56,180 have a nerve which goes to your 1318 00:59:02,079 --> 00:58:58,940 fingertips a or to your chest and that 1319 00:59:05,289 --> 00:59:02,089 nerve arises in your spinal cord and 1320 00:59:09,309 --> 00:59:05,299 back near spinal cord there's the the 1321 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:09,319 nerve ganglia and so the the virus will 1322 00:59:13,270 --> 00:59:11,690 retreat there until for some reason your 1323 00:59:16,210 --> 00:59:13,280 immunity drops enough or something 1324 00:59:18,190 --> 00:59:16,220 happens to either some stressful and the 1325 00:59:20,289 --> 00:59:18,200 virus will then migrate along the nerve 1326 00:59:22,390 --> 00:59:20,299 to where the nerve ends on your skin and 1327 00:59:25,870 --> 00:59:22,400 burst through an attack your skin 1328 00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:25,880 causing blistering and pain and a nasty 1329 00:59:31,910 --> 00:59:28,730 rash and so you'll get a patch of a 1330 00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:31,920 patch of blistered 1331 00:59:37,039 --> 00:59:34,650 good skin now this can be very 1332 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:37,049 unpleasant anywhere but it can sometimes 1333 00:59:40,670 --> 00:59:39,210 occur on the face if it occurs on the 1334 00:59:42,500 --> 00:59:40,680 face you can get scarring and 1335 00:59:44,990 --> 00:59:42,510 disfigurement and it can even sometimes 1336 00:59:47,359 --> 00:59:45,000 affect the eye and you can get herpes 1337 00:59:50,930 --> 00:59:47,369 zoster in the eye and you can cause loss 1338 00:59:53,930 --> 00:59:50,940 of vision look at me quite a a nasty 1339 00:59:55,670 --> 00:59:53,940 late consequence of of infant infection 1340 00:59:57,710 --> 00:59:55,680 with say herpes zoster virus or 1341 00:59:59,930 --> 00:59:57,720 chickenpox many people think God 1342 01:00:03,289 --> 00:59:59,940 chickenpox is a benign illness all my 1343 01:00:05,660 --> 01:00:03,299 family had it in the 50s 60s 70s and 80s 1344 01:00:09,140 --> 01:00:05,670 and you know none of them had anything 1345 01:00:11,539 --> 01:00:09,150 any problem well mostly that's the case 1346 01:00:14,650 --> 01:00:11,549 but two things one is that there is 1347 01:00:17,990 --> 01:00:14,660 still the odd case of herpes zoster 1348 01:00:20,450 --> 01:00:18,000 pneumonia and children have died from 1349 01:00:22,220 --> 01:00:20,460 herpes zoster lung infection when 1350 01:00:24,319 --> 01:00:22,230 everyone thought they just had a you 1351 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:24,329 know the ordinary old chicken pox but 1352 01:00:29,839 --> 01:00:26,730 then much later on when those same 1353 01:00:32,450 --> 01:00:29,849 infected people reach their 60s 70s and 1354 01:00:35,289 --> 01:00:32,460 80s they can burst out with the nasty 1355 01:00:37,670 --> 01:00:35,299 dose of shingles and it's hoped that the 1356 01:00:41,359 --> 01:00:37,680 herpes zoster virus by preventing 1357 01:00:43,430 --> 01:00:41,369 chickenpox preventing the the actual 1358 01:00:47,690 --> 01:00:43,440 seeding of these viruses into our nerves 1359 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:47,700 that we might be susceptible to those 1360 01:00:52,789 --> 01:00:50,970 bouts of shingles in later life when my 1361 01:00:55,099 --> 01:00:52,799 son was five weeks old he contracted 1362 01:00:57,609 --> 01:00:55,109 viral meningitis and I spent five 1363 01:01:01,520 --> 01:00:57,619 sleepless nights in the hospital 1364 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:01,530 listening to him cry and he was bright 1365 01:01:08,539 --> 01:01:04,010 red and you could just tell he was so 1366 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:08,549 afraid and it was it was a really 1367 01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:10,410 stressful time for me he had a spinal 1368 01:01:15,289 --> 01:01:12,210 tap you don't you don't want to have 1369 01:01:16,970 --> 01:01:15,299 that happen to a tiny little baby and to 1370 01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:16,980 think that there are babies out there 1371 01:01:24,500 --> 01:01:20,130 that it might contract a vaccine 1372 01:01:26,630 --> 01:01:24,510 preventable disease just it terrifies me 1373 01:01:28,430 --> 01:01:26,640 and that's why I vaccinate because I 1374 01:01:30,829 --> 01:01:28,440 want to protect my kids and I want to 1375 01:01:32,900 --> 01:01:30,839 protect other people's kids if there was 1376 01:01:36,170 --> 01:01:32,910 a vaccine for the viral meningitis I 1377 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:36,180 would have given that to my both of my 1378 01:01:40,900 --> 01:01:37,850 kids no question two 1379 01:01:42,490 --> 01:01:40,910 didn't it was just an awful thing to 1380 01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:42,500 experience and I really don't want to 1381 01:01:47,950 --> 01:01:44,090 wish that on any other parent or any 1382 01:01:49,690 --> 01:01:47,960 other child to go through that you have 1383 01:01:52,030 --> 01:01:49,700 an important decision to make whether to 1384 01:01:54,370 --> 01:01:52,040 vaccinate or not and that makes you very 1385 01:01:56,770 --> 01:01:54,380 lucky for the luxury of having this 1386 01:01:58,630 --> 01:01:56,780 decision was not available to most of 1387 01:02:00,760 --> 01:01:58,640 your ancestors and is still not 1388 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:00,770 available to parents in many developing 1389 01:02:04,660 --> 01:02:03,050 parts of the world I hope you remember 1390 01:02:07,150 --> 01:02:04,670 the stories from the people in this 1391 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:07,160 video I hope you'll never know the fear 1392 01:02:10,900 --> 01:02:08,570 and the sorrow that was

01:05:53,060 --> 01:05:49,470 private venture by me with your help and 1462 01:05:55,100 --> 01:05:53,070 other people in waters and is not ah is 1463 01:05:56,810 --> 01:05:55,110 na VI affiliated with the Australian 1464 01:05:58,580 --> 01:05:56,820 skeptics a lot of people get to design a 1465 01:06:01,730 --> 01:05:58,590 pendant productions independent so the 1466 01:06:03,890 --> 01:06:01,740 views and I'm going to do a new tail is 1467 01:06:05,540 --> 01:06:03,900 lame a disclaimer soon basically the 1468 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:05,550 views and opinions expressed on the 1469 01:06:09,890 --> 01:06:07,290 skeptics ona not necessarily those of 1470 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:09,900 Australian skeptics and vice versa I'm 1471 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:12,090 glad you cleared it up it's good a few Z 1472 01:06:15,740 --> 01:06:13,770 because I'm in the skeptics Iran's in 1473 01:06:17,300 --> 01:06:15,750 despair dr. ray cheese and the skeptics 1474 01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:17,310 look a lot of people got a bit confused 1475 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:19,050 about that but no it's two different 1476 01:06:21,830 --> 01:06:20,490 tune of azines yeah well that's good 1477 01:06:24,020 --> 01:06:21,840 because I was armed with a whole stack 1478 01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:24,030 full of lawsuit against the rest of the 1479 01:06:29,090 --> 01:06:26,970 team and I thought I'd be able to get 1480 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:29,100 tap into the skeptics a bank account oh 1481 01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:31,290 she's like what happens I'm not gonna 1482 01:06:36,260 --> 01:06:33,090 have it's all independent and I ain't no 1483 01:06:38,750 --> 01:06:36,270 any money so before we go I guess our 1484 01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:38,760 biggest things must stay and go to a 1485 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:40,290 listen listeners who have been with us 1486 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:42,810 now well many of you of course many of 1487 01:06:46,100 --> 01:06:44,730 you have only recently learned about it 1488 01:06:47,570 --> 01:06:46,110 or over the years but there are 1489 01:06:50,420 --> 01:06:47,580 listeners out there who've been with the 1490 01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:50,430 show for the 300 episodes grass together 1491 01:06:54,710 --> 01:06:53,250 we have since 2008 yeah yeah I actually 1492 01:06:59,480 --> 01:06:54,720 I've grown up a lot since I was four 1493 01:07:02,620 --> 01:06:59,490 teeth boy you go what about it I'm grown 1494 01:07:05,270 --> 01:07:02,630 up quite a lot since I was forty-five he 1495 01:07:08,510 --> 01:07:05,280 was only 22 in the show started myself 1496 01:07:10,310 --> 01:07:08,520 but I can feel ya the listeners because 1497 01:07:11,450 --> 01:07:10,320 they're they're the ones who listen 1498 01:07:13,250 --> 01:07:11,460 they're the ones who download the show 1499 01:07:14,390 --> 01:07:13,260 keep the figures up who helped 1500 01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:14,400 contribute some of them with 1501 01:07:18,050 --> 01:07:16,290 micropayments which is really appreciate 1502 01:07:21,140 --> 01:07:18,060 that I appreciate it very much I'll 1503 01:07:24,170 --> 01:07:21,150 spread the word and you're the

consistently and 1507 01:07:32,340 --> 01:07:29,800 what's great is I think that we probably 1508 01:07:34,380 --> 01:07:32,350 spawned a few other skeptic shows around 1509 01:07:36,510 --> 01:07:34,390 the place to just showing that it can be 1510 01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:36,520 done yeah we're part of that sort of 1511 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:39,250 overall skeptical movement of this 1512

sites about 1515 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:46,480 absolutely i like to think the show's 1516 01:07:49,950 --> 01:07:48,010 entertaining as well yeah but it but 1517 01:07:51,900 --> 01:07:49,960 it's actually if you look through the 1518 01:07:54,390 --> 01:07:51,910 history since the show started it's been 1519 01:07:56,490 --> 01:07:54,400 quite a few breakthroughs at landmark 1520 01:07:58,170 --> 01:07:56,500 decisions and you know the ER begins the 1521 01:07:59,880 --> 01:07:58,180 activex yes man and a lot of that 1522 01:08:01,800 --> 01:07:59,890 product oh yeah yeah it means like
