Gee, I thought that all vaccines are bad, and that Big Pharma is out to give our kids autism and push vaccines through the FDA Fast Track process so that they can make tons of money before finding out the vaccine causes harm...

Before anyone flames me, yes, I realize that this is a vaccine for adults (as kids don't get MS). However, on the subject of vaccines, many conservatives are getting to sound like liberals: the evil drug company doesn't care about the patients, all they care about is money, it's a conspiracy, etc. etc. etc.

The pharmaceutical companies are incentivized to succeed at finding cures. When they find a cure they get profits and resulting stock price increases. The successful individual researchers get money and incredible prestige.

There is so much research going on now. The research is in many areas, governmental research, pharmaceutical company research, MS Society sponsored research and independent researchers. The myelin rebuilding studies are especially hopeful.

This "vaccine" is just one of many potential bright spots. We are going to win, it is just a matter of time.

i bet that once the drug companies take out the mercury and make the MMR vaccine into 3 separate vaccines, you will see many of the anti-vaccine people come around.
