      Looking again, he had a septal defect, not sepsis. The fact that your injection is quickly followed by death doesn't prove your shot caused it, but it ought to worry you. Bad idea to vaccinate sick babies as taught in my med school?

      well vaccinating him did not help; not going to get measles if not exposed

      My goodness, you don't understand how this works. Protecting this kid vs measles would have been pretty important to me. Let's go back to the beginning - you claimed VAERS shows >100 deaths from MMR. Can you find 5 in past decade? If not, retract?

      I'd personally love it if folks would admit that their concern is more political than scientific. I see from your website that your problem is with regulation and government, not with safety.

      You're not familiar with Doc Orient's organization @AAPSonline, are you? It's basically the John Birch Society for doctors disguised as a medical professional society. https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-journal-of-american-physicians-and-surgeons-ideology-trumps-science-based-medicine/ …

      Sadly, some fairly prominent doctors belong to the antivax, HIV/AIDS denying, climate science denying, immigrant-bashing @AAPSonline.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2016/11/30/the-new-secretary-of-health-and-human-services-is-a-member-of-a-fringe-medical-organization-heres-what-that-means/ …

      Sadly, @AAPSonline is antivax to the core, although, like many antivax groups, it disguises its antivax tendencies as being for "vaccine choice." In any event, it routinely publishes antivax pseudoscience in its dubious journal.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2016/12/22/the-crank-medical-organization-to-which-hhs-nominee-dr-tom-price-belongs-lays-down-a-heaping-helping-of-antivaccine-pseudoscience/ …

      As for our "friend," like many pseudoscience-loving sorts, she rejects the very concept of a scientific consensus, apparently not realizing that it is the entire purpose of science to come to a consensus on how various natural phenomena work.https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/hostility-towards-scientific-consensus-a-red-flag-identifying-a-crank-or-quack/ …
