In epidemiological studies, using the 'general population' as a baseline has always been extremely useful, and this is especially true in studies looking at incidence rates of diseases or conditions where a large, generalized control group provides a normative baseline.

To make it a legitimate study, the background population must match the study group in relevant demographics and characteristics as closely as possible, except for the variable being studied. This ensures that any differences observed can be attributed solely to the variable in question rather than confounding factors. (In this case, kid/vaxx.)

Go ahead, break out the crayons.
