How to use "Problem" in context?
with vaccines
With over 30 years of experience, one would expect that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) would have a definitive answer to the question of whether or not vaccines are harmful. Unfortunately, the answer is not so clear-cut. On one hand, the CDC has consistently ruled that there is no link between vaccines and autism. However, on the other hand, there are a number of groups, such as the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), that claim that vaccines are actually contributing to the rise in autism cases.
