vaccines

[harry ashburn]

I'm watching the Vaccine War on "Frontline"". They spend a lot of time fretting about people refusing to vaccinate their children; and they obviously take the pro-science stand that vaccines don't cause autism. The show never explored the issue that most people hesitate to vaccinate their kids 'cause they don't trust the Government, the news nor the pharmaceutical industry to tell us the truth. I feel the pharmaceutical industry owns both the media and the government due to their massive economic clout. i;e. billions in advertising $$. I don't even trust the CDC or Frontline. If I had children, what would I do? Probably compromise...give the kids the vaccines, but individually, not combined. spaced=out over time,

Yeah, I'm unsure of how I'd handle it. I got pretty irked when the issue came up with my lil brother a few years ago.

I dig your refocusing of the issue on a lack of trust for the media and government.
