My Buds? Doofus? Really Katiana?
What are these lies? And yeah, I thought I'd add a little humor. He's not qualified to talk about immunizations.

I do not see that quote from JFK in the link you cite above, and since you don't seem to be a big fan of his, I don't think that was just off the top of your head. Sorry, there's a credibility gap here.

Here are a couple of posts of your from this thread:
//www.city-data.com/forum/polit...l#post37574743


(This in response to a post stating that immigrants have to provide proof of immunization.)
And just where is PERTUSSIS in that post of mine ?

Texas schools are having outbreaks, but not of pertussis, that's for sure.

And isn't this thread about the annual flu vaccine and the big epidemic we currently have ?

I've been gaming with my immune system for years, and I usually win.

Physicians hate me, because I'm unpredictably healthy.

Jefferson certainly is qualified to discuss vaccines. More so then anyone on this thread. Doshi is perfectly capable of providing the summary that I shared.

One example that HappyTexan already provided is Thorsen regarding the CDC and lies.

Who? The Dane who did some research that said vaccines don't cause autism? He did not work for the CDC. Funny one of his accusers is RFK,Jr., a believer in the vaccines cause autism meme, who had his article for Rolling Stone retracted by RS.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Enough. You're telling someone with a serious disease that it's nothing. Leave it ALONE!

They can't afford to - no sick leave.
