Oh?

"Vaccines cause autism" is not a scare tactic? Please enlighten me on how that works.

Sick people are not "propaganda."

Calm down.

People used to get measles all the time. Now it's a "crisis" if six kids in the entire country get measles?? Now we need to pump the entire populace with God Only Knows What to "protect" us?

What a scary world in which we live today ...

It's more than six, and it would be many more if the majority of us were not vaccinated. It will be many more in the future if vaccination rates fall even more. People used to get measles all the time, and some were permanently damaged by it - it can cause deafness and inflammation of the brain leading to mental retardation. Some died. Go to an old cemetery and look at the small graves. Many of the children in those graves died from illnesses we can prevent with vaccines now, including measles.

And now nearly half of the kids these days are autistic.

Progress?

I think not.

Autism is not caused by vaccines. Perhaps you should realize that Jenny McCarthy is not the person you should be getting medical information from.

So you allege.

*YAWN*

The Internet is making it very easy to find out the truth about just about anything and everything, so it's understandable why the medical cartel in this country is shaken up.

Knowledge is power.

And they no longer have the market cornered.

That's good news for ALL of us.

Doctors are not "shaken up". They are just disgusted that some people are so gullible they will believe what a supplement salesman says over someone with education and expertise.

You might want to consider the source of what you read on the internet before you decide what the "truth" is.

You must not have much power, because any person with half a brain would know that not everything on the internet is gospel and most of the information, facts, and theories that are online are flat out wrong. I'll take my medical advice from doctors, not from some blonde bimbo who's only real accomplishment in life is getting her t-ts out in Playboy a dozen times.*


*Nothing against her fantastic t-ts, of course.

What's the difference, really?

They're both snake oil salesmen. The only difference is that one is given "credibility" by virtue of a legally-recognized (yet no less corrupt) cartel of his peers.

I assume that if you develop chest pain you will not head for the nearest ER.
