Similarities
Between Both
|
Polio Dead Vaccine
Salk
|
1. 3 doses: 95% efficacious
2. Oral (liquid - drink it)
3. Humoral & cell mediated
4. Greater immunity
5. Can reach a large amount of people with this one (can pass immunity easier)
|
1. humoral
2. High effective rates
3. Should not give to people if they are immunocompromised
4. Both taken in the body
5. For both vaccines, the B and T cells work hard to kill the virus inside of the body
|
1. Can’t replicate
2. 1 dose: 90%; 3 doses: 99%
3. injected
4. Only humoral
5. Cannot pass immunity

Part 2:
What was the purpose of this video? How does the producer of the video use rhetoric to support their purpose? Give three pieces of evidence from the video to support your claim. (Example of evidence can be narrator’s tone, the information presented, information not presented, music played, and/or images shown.)
The purpose of this video was to inform the listener on two different types of vaccines: the Polio Live and Polio Dead. The narrator would go back and forth between the Sabin and Salk vaccine. He would contrast them and then tie in a similarity between them, keeping the listener interested. When he would say something more important, he would change the tone of his voice to catch the listener to make sure they are paying attention. He also used doodles to show the cells being attacked when they entered the body.
- What diseases do vaccines prevent?
Whooping cough, chicken pox, type b meningitis
- What is herd immunity?
The immunity or resistance to an infection that occurs in a group of people when a high percentage of people have been vaccinated
- What does it mean to be immunocompromised?
Having an impaired immune system
- What kind of people would be considered immunocompromised?
When vaccines do not work in their body at all
- How does herd immunity help people who are immunocompromised?
It helps them from their body getting infected from certain diseases. If everyone is vaccinated, then diseases cannot be spread.
- What does it mean to “exempt vaccines”?
To not be vaccinated
- What two ways can parents “exempt vaccines”?
- Keep their children from going out in the world
- Making it their choice of whether or not their child takes a certain vaccine

(Example of evidence can be narrator’s tone, the information presented, information not presented, music played, and/or images shown.)
The purpose of this video was to inform people on the importance of vaccination. The producer of the video used a story about a child who suffers from Leukemia and is immunocompromised. This means that he cannot be vaccinated and needs other people to be vaccinated, so that he can attend school and go out into the world healthily. They showed how the parents felt about how their son cannot be social without the help of others and this was presented well due to their tone.
Part 1:
- What is the theory behind vaccines?
People (and regular doctors) are either pro-vaccine or anti-vaccine
What really keeps us healthy is our own immune system, not just vaccines
- What is the stigma around a person who questions vaccines?
They are not anti-vaccine; they are simply pro-science and pro-public health. They want the entire population to be healthy naturally.
- What is “informed consent”?
Permission granted once the person knows the benefits, possible negatives and alternatives
- Do doctors give “informed consent” to patients on vaccines?
No, doctors do not have a lot of time to do the fundamental research of a certain vaccine. They are very busy and do not take the time to explain them to the patient.
- Who controls vaccine laws?
If it does not go to the federal government, it automatically goes to the state.
- What is California’s vaccine law? (Not mentioned in video, please Google it.)
California gives parents the choice of whether or not they want to vaccinate their child.
- How much knowledge do doctors receive about vaccines in medical school?
They never learn about vaccines in medical school; they are simply handed a piece of paper and told to go off of that.

(Example of evidence can be narrator’s tone, the information presented, information not presented, music played, and/or images shown.)
The purpose of this video was to learn about vaccines and what it means to be pro-vaccine and anti-vaccine and if someone believes in that theory or not. The narrator interviews many professionals in the medical field and asks them about their opinion on whether or not people should be vaccinated. He presents valuable information and tells the audience facts that, most likely, people don’t know.
Summary Questions:
- What is the “vaccine war”?
The vaccine war is the controversial idea of whether or not vaccination should be optional.
- How has media shaped the “vaccine war”?
The media has shaped the vaccine war by informing people on the importance of vaccines and the potential consequences of taking them. The internet has given people more information than they have had in the past and this can potentially change someone’s opinion.
- How has researching vaccine ingredients, learning about the immune system, and watching three videos with separate agendas helped you?
