As a science major, stuff like this bothers me.
My favorite quote is this:
“When I began to read about vaccines and how they work I saw medical studies, not given to use by the mainstream media, connecting them with ... immunology.”
Immunology is a field of study, not a disease. It's a longish word ending in 'ology' and maybe in some minds that makes its dangerous - I'm sure if they read that trees were linked to ecology they'd forbid their children from playing in the woods, too. There is a lot of misinformation about vaccination out there, and it's disturbing that some parents base important decisions regarding the health of their children on shady internet sources rather than on the recommendations of their physician.
