      Is this what @migop11, @MIGOP, and @GOP stand for, letting children suffer and die from vaccine-preventable diseases? A constituent in MI-11 wants to know.

      get a grip on reality. If you truly know science then you wouldn't even say something so uneducated.

      obviously but not well versed in vaccine science. Perhaps attending would have taught him a tad more.

      The post linked explained why their anti-vaccine claims were wrong. Dr. Gorski has been debunking anti-vaccine claims since 2005. He knows a lot about it. Maybe you should read his work - he writes on Science Based Medicine.

      when my daughter nearly died from HSP and other daughter was brain damaged from vaccine encephalitis

      Replying to @ColorfuLaura @gorskon and

      I’m sorry your daughter suffered from HSP, but that’s hardly an argument against #vaccines. Was your second daughter diagnosed with encephalitis by a doctor? Did you get compensation from vaccine court?

      CDC vaccine coverage shows herd immunity is a myth. No practical studies to prove theory

      No, again. Studies show that herd immunity works. http://www.immunize.org/catg.d/p2069.pdf … #vaccineswork

      seeing 95+ are covered then "herd immunity" by definition is false. No vaxxed should have been sick.

      Replying to @ColorfuLaura @doritmi and

      You clearly don't understand herd immunity. Hint: It's not what that NP at @KerryB4Congress's antivax roundtable last Thursday described. The level of vaccine coverage needed for herd immunity depends on how easily the disease is transmitted, which for measles is: Very.

          The other thing herd immunity depends on is how effective the vaccine is.

          herd immunity is only achieved through natural infection BECAUSE OF THIS! 🙄
