Why vaccine helps reduce the population growth rate (it help reduce "population growth" rate, not "population" number, which means it is not intended to kill anyone). Vaccines help to reduce the death rate of people in poor countries, and then it helps to reduce the population growth rate in long term. A lot of children in poor countries die so young or at baby because of various diseases due to poor conditions and lacking of hygiene, and most importantly - the lacking of money and very poor medical systems cannot save them. People in extremely poor countries like Africa want to have children to take care of them when they are old, knowing their children may have a high chance to die, they can constantly be born babies so that if ones die, the other survive, or at least one kid can survive to care of them when they are old in future. And if the vaccines can save the lives of the kids from serious diseases in these places, people don't need to try to born so many children anymore. The birth rate will decrease to the normal level. And as I explain above, it will reduce poverty. There is a story from an Indian. He told about his dad: He’s was born in 1954 and was the last of nine surviving children. Dad’s mother also bore somewhere around 20–25 children. Back in the day, more than 50% of those born did not make it beyond a year or two due to medical complications [1]. Vaccines and other medical facilities had not penetrated to the poorest strata of the society yet because of which people produced more children to tilt the odds of having a surviving offspring in their favor.

For one, the lack of education contributes to poverty. Why shouldn’t every child complete higher education and have a shot at a career that pays better than flipping burgers in a fast-food joint?<br /><br />No, education is not “on your computer now” - one might be able to get the raw information piecemeal (and that’s a big assumption, modern youth tends to lack the determination to do even that), but not the structural framework to effectively understand and apply it.<br /><br />As far as universities being expensive and over-rated… that’s your opinion of your country, but some education systems include public universities subsidized by the countries’ governments (removing cost to the students entirely) and since they are not in position of treating students as paying customers, there’s no notion that they are “owed” passing grades (and eventually degrees) which likely contributes to the second part of your concern.<br /><br />If you believe only God should determine our population size, then consider that death by accident or disease has been the primary control of human population for millennia. It has been neutralized by modern sanitation and medicine, which by following your own logic amounts to going against God’s will.<br /><br />Think about that long and hard. The next time you, any member of your family or anyone in your vicinity has a medical emergency of any kind, consider if letting them die is worth maintaining such conviction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6090458975234556114.post-61134600429532554682020-12-16T02:03:06.198-08:002020-12-16T02:03:06.198-08:00You may ask "Who gets to define what rate of ...You may ask "Who gets to define what rate of population growth, is “too fast”? Answer:<br />“Too fast” is a relative term. It is “too fast” when it caused poverty, reduce GDP per capita growth rate, and maintain other unstable aspects in society. The class in college is different because it can be bigger than the class in primary, secondary or high school (I want to talk about the class in school). But if a family has 11 children and this family is poor, how can this parent afford all children to go to university, only some of them. India face a similar problem with poverty and population growth in recent times because one couple has to care many kids, many of these kids don’t even have enough food, and many of these kids can not go to school or university because their parent doesn’t have enough money, without education, many people stay in poverty. And then vaccine and healthcare service help many parts in India solved this problem: https://www.quora.com/What-does-Bill-Gates-mean-when-he-says-that-we-can-reduce-the-world-population-through-vaccines-healthcare-and-reproductive-health-services/answer/Abhishek-Udupa-1 . That why the most developed, richest (highest GDP per capita) and happiest country in the world has the birth rate pretty low. The most recent example is China with its “one-child policy”, fastest growing economy, GDP per capita raised from 2500$/ person to over 10000$/person in ten years, 800 million people is lifted out of poverty….etc…What Bill Gates said is what thousands of scientists and expert talk before, when these scientists talk, people don’t have a problem with them, but why when Bill Gates just repeat what so many scientists around the world have said over decades, people criticize his words and insult Bill Gates?
