Go Vaccinations!

By pressing the vaccination issue too hard, the PRO-VAXX crowd may push the pendulum in the opposite direction, creating a shift in social consciousness.  Perhaps they will wake up and see their ridiculous position in the mirror, 'vaccinate at all costs.'

GO VACCINES! has been made in honor of NY Governor Andrew Cuomo, who signed into law this week a requirement that all New York State 7th graders get meningitis shots.

Spinters Under the Fingernails

I keep trying to boil down the mercury debate to palatable doses, like an alchemist would with calomel.  I think I'm learning how to debate the PRO-VAXX camp’s position that “low levels of poisoning from Thimerosal couldn’t possibly poison anyone.”  Using this logic, let’s substitute wood for mercury. 
 
“The only way an individual couldn't function is if they have been hit over the head by a wood 4’x4’, and since splinters are so small, they couldn’t possibly affect a person's state of mind, even if they’ve been shoved underneath their fingernails.”
