That is really funny.
But why do you want to inject mercury into your child?
“At the time the British government announced the Longitude Prize, shipwrecks were a grave problem – many people died, ships and cargo were lost. It was decided that a reward in the form of what would be millions in today’s dollars should be given to the person who devised a method by which a ship’s longitude could reliably be determined – making accurate navigation possible.”
I’m not really in the vaccine fight one way or another, but obviously the writer has NO idea what went on in the effort to find longitude. The myth and profit mongering were intense. Meanwhile the guy who actually did it was screwed for nearly two decades. What a terrible example!
Language warningThese guys do a great job of demonstrating the lunacy of not getting kids vaccinated.

Tell them it contains white sugar!!! They will treat it like it is a weapon of mass destruction then.
Never mind my earlier remark. Now I see why the writer chose to use the Longitude Prize as an example. She is obviously an expert on all matters:
“Tabatha Southey expounds on the benefits to showering with other women
By
Tabatha Southey
I begin my days as I believe every woman should: by showering naked with 25 or so other naked women. I can’t begin to tell you the difference that this can make in a woman’s life. After a few years in the locker room, everything seems okay, much seems beautiful and nothing surprises me at all.”
This most certainly qualifies her to lecture us all on vaccines.
With our child, my wife and I had our daughter vaccinated for the more serious threats, and where the vaccine had a long history without complications. We chose to forego other vaccines and we spread out the ones we did have our daughter take.
When it comes to our government/medical complex looking out for our best interests, or lining their pockets, I'll opt to be overly cautious. What really turned me off to mandatory vaccines was when, instead of making the case that Gardasil was a good thing to do, they bribed enough politicians to make it mandatory for school attendance. As a marketing ploy, making vaccines mandatory is a lot cheaper than actually making their case to the public that will be forced to take these shots.
The 600 lb gorilla in the room is the invasion of undocumented people without any medical workup, and the distribution of them and their pet diseases and parasites far and wide without regard for the indigenous residents.
Must be another VJ "payback" for the white man bringing novel diseases to the New World.
Between 1952 - 1962 the death rate from measles was 0.017%. Additionally the rate of permanent injury from measles was 0.03%. I’m not trying to take anything away from the people who died or were injured, but in the scheme of things, that’s a pretty low rate for people to get in a panic over.
Since 1989 there have been 57 deaths and 950ish injuries from the MMR vaccine reported to the VAERS. Of those, about 1/3 were found to have enough evidence to be compensated for the death/injury. I have not been able to find any credible data on how that 1/3 splits between deaths and injuries. This is just MMR; all other vaccines have the same info available for your look up at the CDC and/or HHS websites. But clearly there is some, yet very rare, risk to the vaccines.
I am neither anti nor pro-vax. I personally don’t care if someone wants to or doesn’t want to vaccinate their kids; it’s a personal choice. I do have a real problem with both sides calling the other side “stupid”, as I think there are valid reasons to and not to vaccinate. I do have a real problem with people who want force vaccinations. You cannot force someone to take a medical risk, and there is clearly a risk to some although very small, to minimize a risk for someone else.
I’m not an ‘anti-vaxxer’.
I HAD Rubella and German measles as a kid, therefore, by the science of all these years since, I do not NEED a vaccination. My body has developed a natural immunity.
This is what matters - can't you see you're under attack?
So is it time to blame and fight each other over hit and miss solutions, and strive to minimize the carnage inflicted on us but look the other way from the perpetrators?! So few focus on where the biological attacks originate!
Why do bring the liberal diversionary needle prick debate red herring tactic here? Makes me sick watching this side show, on FR no less.
