Yes it's sad that some people are so stupid that they might be influenced by this kind of nonsense. Unfortunately you can't fix stupid but at the same time people like the original poster are never able to influence actual policy anywhere because it's obvious to anyone with even a partial education that they're woefully ignorant on the subject matter. One country in Europe, I forget which off the top of my head, recently had their high court rule that the rights of parents to be ignorant do not trump the rights of children to be safe and have mandated vaccination. This is a trend that hopefully will continue making people like WHP even less significant than they already are. They will get more and more desperate, and make more and more noise, but overall have an even smaller effect. The vaccine conspiracy retards are losing and will have to move on to something else before too long.

I am not a medical doctor and so I have to rely on the knowledge of those who are. That's frustrating because lots of times doctors don't agree on things. In this case, however, the overwhelming majority of all medical professionals strongly agree on vaccination. Even if that weren't the case, hell, a single peer reviewed study is more powerful than every YouTube video these asshats can come up with.

I actually know two people, a man and a woman, who both do and have done an awful lot of work in Africa. One of them is currently volunteering at an HIV clinic in Numidia and the other has worked in a couple of different African countries with the Doctors Without Boarders organization. People like WHP absolutely infuriate them. When a mother would risk death to walk Hundreds of miles JUST for the CHANCE of getting their children vaccines, you have to ask yourself why? Do you think that "Big Pharma" has indoctrinated her? Of course not, it's because when you're actually face death for your children from preventable diseases, you have a lot different perspective than posting from your mom's basement in the UK.
