And they're the ones telling us that everyone else is lying.

Vaccinations were endorsed by the CDC back in 1946. The studies saying they're evil are the ones claiming the lies. The CDC has put out study and after study which supports their almost seventy year-old stance.

I heard if you remove the foreign traveler cases and the Amish, that this measles "outbreak" is right on par with our national yearly average.

I think we're being herded again.

As has been the norm with this sort of coverage, the more damning info is way down in this article. I just wanted to make sure I posted something from a more neutral news site.
"I regret that my co-authors and I omitted statistically significant information in our 2004 article," Thompson said in a statement sent to CNN by his lawyer. "I have had many discussions with Dr. Brian Hooker over the last 10 months regarding studies the CDC has carried out regarding vaccines and neurodevelopmental outcomes, including autism spectrum disorders. I share his belief that CDC decision-making and analyses should be transparent."

However, Thompson went on to say that Hooker had recorded these conversations without his consent, and had posted them online without his knowledge.

One study tanking from ten years ago isn't enough to sway my opinion from the many that have been conducted properly.

I read the first maybe 10 comments and I have no idea what the say. Force people to immunize there kids. Other course are the parents immunized? What I did and the kid next door wasn't and still cause my kid to die.
I had the MMR when I was a kid. That is Mumps, Measles and Rubella I believe. Haven't had any thank God. And I haven't infected anyone else. I like the theory of it thinning out the crowd.

U of Cali leads the way with sanity. I repeat, Cali-fucking-fornia.
Students at all 10 campuses of the University of California will be required to be screened for tuberculosis and vaccinated for measles, mumps, rubella and other diseases under a new health plan set to take effect in 2017, the university said on Friday.


If you want to keep your kids unvaccinated, you may as well homeschool them.

Idiot mother annoyed when her kid got sent home.
"I told him that he might be called down to the office because of this," she said. "We explained to him that Mom and Dad love him very much and this is our choice because we feel this is protecting him by not being vaccinated."

You're protecting him by not giving him the shot? Ex-fucking-plain.

Though health professionals and researchers have said links between autism and vaccines have been repeatedly discredited, Donovan and other parents believe the damaging side effects of vaccines are not fully known and often downplayed.

You are fucking stupid.

"It's not right. It's truly bullying. My son is being singled out and we're made to feel like were bad parents because we've decided not to vaccinate anymore."

That does make you a shitty parent.

Chickenpox, she noted, is usually not a serious disease. Only in rare cases does it have deadly complications.

"They're saying it's some deadly disease but, hello, we all had it," she said.

No, we haven't all had it. Because some people got FUCKING VACCINATED.

I'm surprised there isn't a law saying religious or other reasons are not legally exempt from doing what you're told. I mean, an unvaccinated person could spread a disease to a gay person, and then that would be discrimination. :-D

Abso-fucking-lutely NO LINK between vaccinations and autism.
“This was true even among those children who were at an increased risk of having autism spectrum disorders by virtue of having an older sibling with ASD,” said Dr. Anjali Jain.

None. Zero. Fucking goose egg.

And yet, shit like this still happens. Sorry you've got such shitty parents, kid.

The issue of mandatory vaccination has even divided Hollywood. In February, actress Kristen Bell said that her friends and family weren't allowed to hold her daughter Lincoln before she was two months old if they didn't have the whooping cough vaccination. "It's a very simple logic: I believe in trusting doctors, not know-it-alls," she told

Oh, Kristen. You should have been on my list of 5 if you weren't.
It's not me, it's someone else.

LOL! The subgroup of "doctors" is almost 100% within the group "know-it-alls". Not that I disagree with her stance, but her estimation of doctors in general is kind of funny.

Wait... didn't she say a smart thing? She likes doctors better than idiots who think they know shit?

Maybe he meant, "she should be on my 5 if she wasn't already"?

Another study says anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists are psychotic.

I still maintain that anti-vaccers are inadvertently working to improve the species. We don't get nearly as much culling of the stupid as we need to, so every little bit helps.

Awesome unless you're a six-year old dying of some easily preventable illness. Once you get past the age of majority and have a greater degree of control over what chems you can make use of (well, kind of), then it's helping natural selection along.
