THANK YOU 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Antivax is just bad science, but people seem to miss how disrespectful the conversations are.

What company has paid the biggest amount of money in criminal fines in history? Pfizer....Peoples lack of trust is not because of something they read on the internet, it is because of things like the lawsuits and real reactions people have had. My wife and I both had very harmful side effects to pharmaceutical interventions, that lifestyle changes and diet cured. Trust is earned through CONSISTENT, reinforcing behavior. They have work to do in earning that trust back from society.

I read someone’s thread about how they’re a teacher and they believe vaccines cause autism and my heart broke. We aren’t zombies. We don’t have AIDS. We are people and we should be treated as such.

I’d rather be autistic than dead of a preventable disease

And vaccine preventable diseases, like rubella, CAN cause autism.

Even if vaccines could give you autism, let’s have a look at the choice to be made…contracting a disease likely to kill you OR being slightly unsure how to deal with society and having an amazing brain that can function on a higher plane for maths / science / history / languages / art / music than most people. I know which I’m choosing!!

Exactly. These people who think vaccines cause autism are further stigmatizing those with it. They're humans too, capable of doing great things. Autism isn't the end of the world for a person.

Even if it did cause autism - people would rather their child die and suffer through a horrific illness that have a child with a different neurotype.

I feel like people don't understand that correlation DOESN'T equal causation lol?? I could be talking out of my ass but I remember reading a study in uni where both crime and ice cream sales were up during the summer. The study went on to say the common denomination was it being SUMMER. It TOTALLY makes sense that ice cream causes crime, though Klondike did raise the question of, "what would you do for a Klondike bar?"

It has nothing to do with vaccines. It has everything to with processed food, meat glue, chemicals. Start eating clean as much as your income will allow. Grow a garden if you can. If not help at a community garden. Buy your meat from a local farmer. Find ppl to share the cost with you. I never thought I. Would be one of those ppl saying this, but after being in Europe and seeing the difference between how real food tastes and looks, and how it makes your body feel, I am now a believer.
