I know that when I need medical advice I always turn to that hard hitting TV medical documentary series The Brady Bunch!

How weak is their position when they have to point to an episode of a '70s sit-com as "proof?"

Just when you think anti-vaxxers have reached the lowest of ignorance, they dig deeper.

I need the World Health Organization to charge Andrew Wakefield with crimes of public health endangerment.

Yeah it bothers me that she is getting away with her shit scott free

[zoaster_toaster]

That's a huge reason why I'm mad she's allowed a public forum and allowed to do shit like The Masked Singer. All that does is legitimize her.

Antivaxxers are a plague on our world. Also, I listened to The Dailys story on how the movement seized on the hasidic jewish community communications and used it to spread their bullshit and now people are people are wiping seats/refusing to sit next to them on busses. Just soooo gross and fucked up.
