In This Together
We are told that to question vaccines makes you a baby killer. Quite often this baseless alarmism pumped out by the MSM is littered with disinformation. For example in the recent Mirror article published by the anonymous FleetStreetFox (Susie Boniface) she, or her editors, provided us with this distressing image.
The article calls for any who refuse to vaccinate their child to be imprisoned for ‘child abuse’ and decries ‘the spread of anti-vax propaganda.’ Which is ironic because the headline image, chosen to drive this critical message into your consciousness, is pure propaganda of the very silliest and sickest kind.
Elsewhere we read about the ‘disgraced’ Dr Andrew Wakefield who made ‘bogus claims’ about the measles vaccine in 1995. Other than the fact that FleetStreetFox has got both the year and the type of vaccine wrong, she is right about the disgraced part. Though, given her inability to report even basic facts accurately, and her apparent reliance upon photo-shopped images to support her serious analysis, we might question the veracity of some other statements in her diatribe.
I’ve explored some of the evidence which does raise questions about both the efficacy and safety of some vaccines. As a person who is not medically qualified I am certainly not advising anyone to avoid vaccination. Presumably ‘FleetStreetFox’ isn’t a doctor either, yet she is seemingly content to dish out medical advice.
Everyone deserves an opportunity to be informed. So we will look at the evisceration of Dr Wakefield, not particularly for the evidence he highlighted, which has been more thoroughly explored by others, but because it reveals the reason why the vaccine debate has become little more than an adversarial ‘slanging match.’
Whenever you mention any concerns about possible vaccine safety the Wakefield case is immediately thrown in your face as ‘proof’ that such apprehensions are baseless. For millions, the story of Dr Wakefield is about as far as their knowledge goes on vaccines. This is understandable as it is constantly reinforced by the mainstream media (MSM.) For most people it is the episode which defines the stupidity of the ‘anti-vaxxers.’
I recommend that everyone looks at his case in detail. Because, if you do, Wakefield’s professional assassination actually demonstrates one of the main reasons why we should perhaps be more sceptical about vaccines.
