    This is an example of how major news outlets carelessly enable antiscience movements https://torontosun.com/health/diet-fitness/what-you-may-not-know-about-vaccines/ …

        So many unsubstantiated assertions in one article. Terrible

        “EDITOR’S NOTE: The column does not constitute medical advice”. You can say that again!

        truly appalling that any serious newspaper would print this. Let's hope they take it down as soon as possible. Children will die if they follow this quack's advice.

        It'd be good if newspapers sent their editors a memo reminding them to be vigilant about content like this. It'll always help for editors to take a firm line on the science & medicine/health content they accept. (& perhaps use freelance specialist editors to vet content.)

        That is no vaccination! That's 2.5 ml and at least a 21 gauge needle. Also, Pauling was wrong about the antiviral properties of megadose vit C. Be responsible and have your children and yourselves vaccinated.

        This is so weird; it seems like everyone else is linking to a different [anti-vaccine] article. When I click on the link, it’s an article advising parents to get their kids vaccinated. Here’s a screenshot (maybe they switched it out?)pic.twitter.com/GWTNPN6tBm

        I did a little digging & it looks like they massaged it & now( I checked a min ago) it’s taken down. I didn’t get the page you screen shot. Here’s a link that helped me figure it out.
