What's western medicine done for you lately? Well, did you die of measles yet?

I know there are a lot of people out there who aren't sure about vaccinations, especially for kids. I always wondered where the idea that they cause autism came from. From a fraudulent study, as it turns out.

I think this one had so much traction because people like to distrust doctors.

Thanks to drhoz for the link.

except the autism 'epidemic' is happening in countrys that never used thimerosal, in kids never got vaccinated, and it continues despite thimerosal use being discontinued. Now they're blaming it on "oh,. maybe it's because the MOTHER was vaccinated as a kid...."

Exactly. There must be some other conspiracy at work!
