RE: Putting a face to the dangers of vaccines
I think we've finally reached the point where our conversation kind of appears to be this: "Vaccines are safe." "Nope." "They work." "Nope." "Here's how we

Changing what you're accusing the CDC of once I point out that you are attributing the wrong behavior to them is fine, but I think that kind of speaks to my point that much of the anti-vax community really

The CDC didn't admit to mandating the polio vaccine. People can, and some few do, refuse to take the polio vaccine or have it administered to their children. The fact that the CDC recorded SV40 contamination

I don't know who proved, to your satisfaction, that the polio vaccine was contaminated with SV40. My guess is that the very researchers and watchdogs who did so are the same ones who demonstrated that

Okay? I think what's really happening here is this: You didn't bother to read the CDC page that the author if the post cited. And probably neither did she. And since it really wasn't the good evidence

You and I are both way too bored. I admit it, the out of left field assertion that I’m a CDC spy with instructions to engage you in debate about vaccines threw me off. I don’t know what to do with that.

Well, that was pretty condescending. Bravo. Look, this is what I meant about tautology. You cite the CDC, I point out that really they do agree with me on this. Buuuuut, silly me, I'm forgetting that the

"Some evidence suggests that receipt of SV40-contaminated polio vaccine may increase the risk of cancer. However, the majority of studies done in the U.S. and Europe which compare persons who received

Okay fine, I'm trying to address your insistence that I "practically" accuse her of genocide. Which you've definitely put out there . I'm not putting those words in your mouth. She gave me links

And yet, this author insists that we all read about the many many doctors who are advocates for not vaccinating. You guys really are trying to have it both ways. Don’t trust doctors, they are just afraid

I don’t think we need to get too bogged down with whether or not people demanding I remove my flags are being threatening or not. For one thing, they have every right to threaten to flag me. I’m a big

I’m a little surprised to hear that I haven’t commented enough on the content here. I’ve written a lot at this point, and I think I’ve specifically addressed a lot of the points made here. Perhaps what

That’s kind of an ironic thing to say, when you’re diseminating patently false information that would totally cause students to do worse on boards if they heeded it.

RE: Putting a face to the dangers of vaccines
I’m not sure how that’s related? Are you saying the doctor who vaccinated your grandkids did so knowing they shouldn’t? That would mean they put their medical liscence on the line to keep some scary anonymous

That’s very nice self-diagnosis. When I take boards I will keep in mind how inappropriate self-diagnosis is. So thanks for that tip. The truth is that your own physicians, the ones who’ve probably read

Well, the reason he thinks healthcare workers are such low quality isn’t because of some medical error. He thinks healthcare workers are trash because his family members got a vaccine, which he blames

Vaccines don’t fall into the category of medical errors you’re citing with that NPR story, because giving a vaccine in and of itself isn’t a medical error. Medical errors happen. Someone is given the wrong

I’m not sure that keeping my own child from getting vaccines, and having him end up with polio or smallpox is an acceptable cost of soothing your anger. I don’t know what happened to your grandsons. It
