      I'm not sure if this is true. The big names (RFK Jr, Del Bigtree, Andy Wakefield), but there are Jenny McCarthy and Barbara Loe Fisher, and the leaders of the smaller antivaccine groups seem to be mostly women, although I will admit that I've never seen a systematic review.https://twitter.com/doritmi/status/1145789496836993024 …

      Most moms support #vaccines and don’t appreciate antivaccine efforts. Does he believe them? Most leaders of the antivaccine movement are men. He seems to believe them.

      On the other hand, social media studies of FB and Twitter show that something like 80% of antivaxers active on those platforms are women. It's an interesting question.

          and they basically all stating they are highly educated and therefore they 'know' the 'dangers' of vaccinations. It;s the same as in the Netherlands

          We must keep in mind that most people of both genders support vaccines, even if 1 gender turns out to be dominant in the anti camp.

          Do we know anything about if mothers are more involved in health care decisions for children than fathers? If that is the case, could it potentially be the case that there are more pro-vax/anti-vax mothers than fathers?
