Huh.

I always said that book was pro-vaccine.

“I’ve spent weeks investigating all these issues personally and reviewing all the research myself,

"Oh, wow Doctor...WEEKS? Call me in four years. Of course, you'll still be behind me by then, because undoubtedly at least 2 or 3 more vaccines will have been added to the schedule."

Some of these errors are so erroneous, it’s almost as if Dr. Offit was reading some other anti-vaccine book instead of mine

Sounds like Dr. Sears is experiencing what parents have been putting up with for years from very pro-vax doctors who refuse to even discuss the other side.

I agree "The Vaccine Book" is pro-vax, but I really like it b/c it does present both sides, and personally I feel as though Dr. Sears respects both sides. I like this quote too:

I also discuss the reasons why some parents choose not to vaccinate so that the readers can understand what these parents’ issues are. I believe that vaccine books that only show one side of the issue aren’t an effective educational tool. That’s why I present both sides.

Thanks for posting that! Good read!
