Just look at the vaccine mess. Despite the ONE study on which the whole freakin' thing is based being clearly and unequivocally debunked by the very journal that printed it in the first place, we still have people swallowing the whole thing hook, line and sinker. We've had measles outbreaks as a result. People are getting hurt. IDIOTS!!!!!!
That's the reason I don't get a flu shot. Back in the 70s elderly people were dieing like flies from it. Doctors tell me today that all that's changed - yada yada yada. Now I just take flew shots.
