That is simply not true. Deaths from all the vaccinable diseases during the twentieth century fell by, for examples:
Polio - 80%
Diphtheria - 90%
Measles - 95%
Pertussis - 80%
before the vaccines were introduced (sources, UK and US health department records).
That is one of the most insidious lies promoted by the pro-vaccination brigade.

Can you send me a link for the deaths reduced before vaccines because this says the peak for polio deaths that the world has ever seen was 1940-1950's where it would kill or paradise around half a million a year.
