Did he really call the measles a serious threat?

Other than that, I liked it.

I agree. I though it odd to complain about the MMR then call the Measles threatening!

Of the diseases we have vaccines for, measles and tetanus would be the ones I would consider to be more likely for complications.

Here is some more information:

That chart under the section "The US has the most bloated vaccine schedule" is alarming. Please take a look at it.

I'm not going to pick the article apart. The basic message is a good one, I think. I really admire him for his conduct in the situation he is in.

Someone told me that he scoffed at the practice of giving hep b in the hospital, saying that we like to "Grab 'em and Stab 'em."

lol I think it was on Larry King.

One thing that got me in that article is that he listed "anti-freeze" as a vaccine ingredient.

I've had many people argue with me that there is no antifreeze in vaccines and that this is scare-mongering and misinformation. From what I could gather when I looked into what they were saying, it seems vaccines contain a component of antifreeze, but not actual antifreeze.


Thoughts, information, and/or links on this?

Well, a quick search of the internets netted this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol

Under the "Other applications" section:
"Ethylene glycol is also used in the manufacture of some vaccines, but it is not itself present in these injections."

Maybe someone can find something other than Wikipedia.
