Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Century of Vaccination and What It Teaches
That the evidence of detailed cases - which is really the only evidence on which the credit of vaccination de pends - cannot be accepted wholesale as if it were not open to question. A vaccinated patient with no visible signs of vaccination is likely to be described as unvaccinated if his case is severe, and especially if death ensues; while if the marks are not plainly visible, the explanation of not properly performed is an obvious one; and the patient will be included as belonging to the unvaccinated or imperfectly vaccinated class in the list of cases, and, foul court, as unvaccinated or having no marks in the official summary. I think it would be advisable for my medical brethren to accept as authentic only published and tested cases, or such as have come under their own personal observation.
