    The more things change, the more they remain the same. I've mentioned before that the antivax movement isn't new. It's barely changed from 100 years ago, or even 300 years ago if you look at the anti-variolation protestors.https://www.tvo.org/article/stop-the-slaughter-of-the-innocents-meet-the-anti-vaxxers-of-1919 …

        In 1863 Dr. Ricord spoke at Academy at Paris. First I rejected the idea that syphilis could be transplanted by vaccination. But facts accumulated more and more, and now I must concede the possibility of the transfer of syphilis by means of the vaccine.https://www.nytimes.com/1869/09/26/archives/vaccination-is-it-a-protection-against-smallpox-another-protest-by.html …

        “Some parents have an amusing habit of ascribing anything which happens to their children, from the whooping-cough to a broken leg, to the effects of their vaccination.” Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, 1887 133 years ago. #VaccinesWorkhttps://skepticalinquirer.org/exclusive/sir_arthur_conan_doyle_on_vaccination/ …

        “Colonel Wintle’s second letter appears to me to contain a jumble of statistics and quotations, some of which do not affect the question at all, while others tell dead against the cause which he is championing.” Sound painfully familiar?
