The surgeon general led the very unpopular fight against cigarettes in the sixties and seventies after the landmark U of Florida lung cancer trial. Much like cigarettes, you should produce indisputable evidence that vaccines are more dangerous than the diseases they prevent.

Considering the indisputable evidence of the harm that vaccine preventable diseases cause, that is going to be one hell of a high bar

Suggesting that vaccines do more harm than the diseases they prevent is the very definition of antivaccine.

It depends on the vaccine, the disease, and the circumstances. Rigid adherence to protocols from conflicted authorities, while ignoring adverse reports, is anti-patient and contrary to the Oath of Hippocrates

So you think some vaccines are good. How would you argue against someone who felt all vaccines were bad all the time. Would you appeal to evidence and the scientific consensus?

Vaccines and drugs, though "good" in some circumstances, all have risks. Why not try to figure out why and to whom bad reactions occur instead of denying them?

I notice you avoided answering my question: Which vaccines on the CDC's recommended childhood vaccine schedule do you personally consider safe and effective? Be specific and justify your answers.

It's a simple question: Which vaccines on the CDC's recommended childhood vaccine schedule do you personally consider safe and effective? Be specific and justify your answers.

Note that I will keep asking this question from time to time until I get an answer.

I don't give one-size-fits-all advice on how doctors should treat their patients. You apparently do.

I didn't ask you which vaccines you recommend for everybody. I asked you which childhood vaccines YOU PERSONALLY consider effective and safe, to be specific, and explain why. It's a simple, straightforward question. Why won't you answer it?

You are like a lawyer intimidating a witness, demanding a yes or no answer to a complex question. PERSONAL advice is not possible on Twitter.

Not at all. Take as many Tweets as you want to answer. I'll wait. It's late here anyway, and I'll be going to bed soon.
