This constant stream of data never ceases an overabundance of irrelevant data, creating the need for a filter. This filter is known as the consciousness.

Even at this stage of life there are about 5 million hair follicles on the body of which 1 million are found on the head. Present on the scalp however, are 100 thousand individual hair follicles.

Vaccines are also known as immunizations to help keep children healthy. There are pros and cons with vaccines, and establish some hazards. There are different types of vaccines; Pertussis, MMR, Chicken pox, and Meningitis. One main question I was looking at is? Does the risk of the disease outweigh the risk of the vaccine?
