The "vaccines don't work" link should read, "vaccines don't always work." |

That's the least of their issues.
As for the parents who have kids permanently disabled due to vaccines, I feel for them, but the number of disabled kids isn't nearly as high as kids who used to die from diseases easily prevented by vaccination now.

But who gives a shit if your kid ends up with whooping cough or mumps, its not their problem... |

Not to mention that you have to weigh out the risks and benefits of each vaccine individually, rather than lumping them all together, which is precisely why routine vaccinations are limited mostly to diseases that are endemic to your region, lifestyle, etc. |

An interesting note: Andrew Wakefield, the guy who originally sparked the "Vaccines are evil!" movement, was pretty much trashed in peer reviews and follow up studies. It turned out the man was largely falsifying findings and making connections that didn't actually exist. That's on top of the fact that his original "report" focused on only a dozen "case studies." Almost all of them, right off the bat, had inconsistencies in their backgrounds that made the claim of vaccines causing autism VERY dubious. Wakefield was even partnered up with the father of one of his "case studies" to market autism diagnostic kits to families.
The man was a quack and a con artist through and through.

Yeah, the guy was/is a fraud. Even the publication which originally printed his alleged findings eventually renounced the study.

He was struck off the medical register because of this.

This would make a great album cover for a heavy metal or punk band:  |
