Advocate all you want for vaccines. But patients still have the right to choose. And the right to hear those who disagree that all vaccines are effective and safe enough to force on people. Using force discredits the case.https://twitter.com/DrLindaMD/status/1108206936590290945 …

Of course, let me just let
@DrLindaMD know that I've been trying to get a simple answer to a simple question from Dr. Orient for days. The question? Which childhood vaccines does she consider safe and effective and why? She's been dodging the question with rants about freedom.2 replies 5 retweets 57 likes -
It can't be that Dr. Orient doesn't consider any vaccine to be safe and effective (because she's an antivaxer), could it? Perish the thought!

Great questions! If any antivaxxer has any real science, I am willing to listen to it. But, there is none.

There is plenty of evidence of vaccine adverse effects. Isn't that real science? And does absence of evidence from safety trials that have not been done= evidence of absence--firm enough to justify suspension of need for consent? The damaged kids are real.

What would be these "safety trials" that haven't been done?

Again, long-term randomized prospective trials with an unvaccinated control group. The recent touted Danish trial doesn't meet those criteria. CDC stonewalled FOIA requests for safety trials on hep b in newborns

And what parent would allow their child to be randomly vaccinated or not?

Good point. Antivaxers wouldn't let their children be randomized into the vaccinated arm, and responsible parents wouldn't let their children be randomized into the no vaccine arm.

Indeed, Dr. Orient needs to read up on the concept of clinical equipoise.
