Michigan Senate Bill 1055, being promoted by @Right_to_Life, @pjcolbeck, @VoteTonya, @MikeKowall (who really looks like Stanislaw Burzynski), @JudyforMichigan, @joehune, and Mike Shirkey flows from a tale premise and is designed to lower vaccine rates. 4/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/06/12/senate-bill-1055-antivaccine-fear-mongering/ …

Indeed,
@Right_to_Life's Senate Bill 1055 flows against medical evidence. Not only are the vaccines targeted not dangerous. The cells used to grow the vaccines' virus are derived from fetuses aborted >50 years ago. No fetal "tissue" is used. 5/1 reply 3 retweets 4 likesShow this thread -
Also, although
@Right_to_Life doesn't directly say it, the implication behind its bill is that there is something harmful about cells made using the WI-38 or MRC-5 cell lines because of their derivation from fetuses aborted in the 1960s. There isn't. Quite the contrary. 6/1 reply 2 retweets 5 likesShow this thread -
Indeed, vaccines made from virus stock grown in WI-38 and MRC-5 cells have contributed to the prevention of billions of cases of disease and many millions of deaths. 7/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/06/12/senate-bill-1055-antivaccine-fear-mongering/ …

Moreover, even the Catholic Church, second to no religion when it comes to being antiabortion, has stated that it is morally acceptable to use the vaccines manufactured using these cell lines. 8/ http://www.immunize.org/talking-about-vaccines/vaticandocument.htm …

I always find it rather odd how "pro-life" groups like
@Right_to_Life claim to be pro-life, but then do things that show unequivocally that they are far more antiabortion than pro-life. Senate Bill 1055 is one of the things. 9/1 reply 1 retweet 5 likesShow this thread -
Basically,
@Right_to_Life,@pjcolbeck,@VoteTonya,@MikeKowall, @JudyforMichigan,@joehune, and Mike Shirkey care more about fetuses aborted >50 years ago than they do about preventing disease and saving children's lives NOW. 10/1 reply 2 retweets 6 likesShow this thread -
Make no mistake. This "informed consent" about vaccines that use these cell lines is in reality misinformed consent designed to frighten parents into not vaccinating.
@Right_to_Life is in reality promoting a pro-disease, pro-death policy with respect to vaccines. 11/1 reply 2 retweets 10 likesShow this thread -
I've often wondered why "pro-life" activists fall for this antivaccine ploy over and over and over. Antivaxers generally don't give a rodent's posterior about abortion. The "fetal tissue" gambit is to them just another tool to portray vaccines as "contaminated" or "dirty." 12/

Whatever the reasons, groups like
@Right_to_Life need to stop letting themselves be played by antivaxers in their unending struggle to portray vaccines as evil and scare parents into not vaccinating. 13/1 reply 1 retweet 4 likesShow this thread
As long as groups like @Right_to_Life promote bogus "informed consent" bills like SB 1055 and trumpet fear mongering about "fetal parts" or "fetal cells" in vaccines, I call BS on their claims to be "pro-life." They care far more for unborn life than live children. 14/14

Whoa, that's a very nuanced and frightening perspective I hadn't thought of. You're probably very right
