Let's cut to the chase. Raise your hand if you have, or would, or will, vaccinate your kids.
*hand raised*
She hated it, for about two minutes after the needle left her arm...but she's not going to get the measles, or rubella, or any of the other diseases that the long, hard, deliberative work of science has successfully chased into the night.
Oh...and she's not going to get autism either. Because duh.
So knuckle up and raise 'em if you can. I'd like to know who I'm dealing with here.
Thanks.
::) tough guy.

80. I listened to Thom Hartmann's radio show this afternoon and I was dismayed That it really isn't just RW nuttery.
There is STILL a lot of really bad information out there. I don't think it's just wingers and that bothers the hell out of me.
Uh... yeah.

>Because here’s the truth: This is largely a liberal fringe issue.
The people not vaccinating their kids against the diseases once declared defeated don’t live in South Carolina or Indiana or a particularly conservative part of Ohio or Florida. That isn’t where people are contracting the whooping cough, like it’s ******* Little Women.
No, the strongholds are in places like Newport Beach, Santa Monica, and Marin County, California. The affluent, the educated, the enlightened, the ones who believe in purity and science — people in liberal enclaves are the ones rejecting one of the 20th century’s major scientific achievements.
Half of the children that attend some schools in Marin (median income: $90,839), the county’s health officer told the New York Times last week, are unvaccinated. People don’t want toxins in their children’s blood.<

If that were true, then unvaccinated children would only be a danger to themselves and others that aren't vaccinated. However, the vaccines are not always 100% effective. That is why having as many as possible get vaccinated is important.
