Childhood Vaccination Rates Are Declining. You Can Blame MAGA. - Lemmy.World

Our 13 month old is fully vaccinated. We do this crazy thing where we trust our doctor. He’s doing great and we’re doing our part…it is so frustrating how stupid Republicans are
The craziest part to me is the docs who believe the conspiracies. You spent all that time studying medicine and don’t believe it?
Conspiracy can slander a lot of things. It used to be easy to slander anti-opiate pushing doctors “conspiracy theorists”.
Are you implying the anti-vax crowd relies on facts, data, and logic and not conspiracies?
I’m implying that someone can question a consensus without being crazy, and can question evidence without being anti-vax. Look at Paul Offit on the more moderate end, or Vinay Prasad on the more extreme end.
This post is about anti-vaccine rhetoric. Vaccines are safe, get over it

What I said was two very pro-vaccine vaccine researchers who were called conspiracy theorists for saying there may be some costs to mandating vaccination.

Any and every intervention has a cost, even if its just the cost of paying someone to administer and produce it.

Relatively safe. They can still cause harm. That’s why the Vaccine Damage Payment Scheme is a thing, at least in the UK.
