I wasn't trying to come across as an anti vaccination person. I realize just about everything is related to ecosystem, but what I meant by "changing ecosystems" was specifically related to introducing species and modifying species, not taking medicine.
Rabbits in australia are a pretty famous example, but I can't walk out my door without seeing numerous fails related to introducing plant species.
