Vaccines are a controversial subject and recently have been
thrust into the
public spotlight. This was caused by the increase of
anti-vaccination activists
and outbreaks of contagious diseases, like measles. Although the
research
stating vaccines could result in autism was discredited and the
publishing
physician lost his license permanently, the myth remains, kept
alive on social
media.
Supporters say that vaccination is safe and point out that
illnesses, including
rubella, diphtheria, smallpox, polio, and whooping cough, are now
prevented by
vaccination and millions of children’s lives are saved. Opponents
say that
children’s immune systems can deal with most infections naturally,
and that
injecting questionable vaccine ingredients into a child may cause
side effects,
including seizures, paralysis, and death.
In your opinion, should parents vaccinate their children or not? To strengthen your argument, use yourobservations and experiences, and information from your research.
Pick one topic and develop a well-developed thesis driven essay with research from Gale: Opposing Viewpoints located in HCCS library database. The paper will be 750-1000 word essay. You will need a minimum of 5 sources. You will have two quotes per body paragraph. You should have for and against argument. MLA style: 12 font, times new roman, double-spaced.

Part 2: Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test
Let us consider another hypothetical situation. The WHO wants to compare the mortality rates of children under the age of five years of underdeveloped and developed regions of the world. There were two independent samples of ten countries from each of the groups drawn at the same time, and the yearly mortality rates of children under the age of five years (per 100,000) inhabitants were reported (MRate1 and MRate2).
Table 2: Mortality Rates of Children
| Country | MRate1 | MRate2 |
| 1 | 120 | 11 |
| 2 | 110 | 9 |
| 3 | 105 | 13 |
