      Apparently, a real doctor says #vaccines are safe and an antivaccine non-expert with a history of misrepresentation says they’re not. Next on @SpecNews1SoCal, weather report: our meteorologist says it’s raining, but Bob the couch potato who has been indoors a year says it’s not.https://twitter.com/Renee_Eng/status/1202633550022860800 …

      When it comes to #vaccines for children, Dr. Robert Riewerts with @KPSCALnews and @aboutKP says they are safe but @RobertKennedyJr, who says he is pro-vaccine, wants more robust testing. Full interview airs Sunday on #InFocusCA on @SpecNews1SoCal. pic.twitter.com/mer43SvMA8

      @RobertKennedy says he is pro-vaccine? Yeah - right - and I’m the Queen of Sheba. 🙄

      He says that repeatedly. While working hard to promote misinformation that scares people off #vaccines. You have to wonder, if he really beilieves the nonsense he says - that vaccines are harmful and don’t work - why would he be provaccine? (Well, it’s obvious he’s not)

      No offense, but you are utterly ignorant and should perhaps sit quietly for a while now, while Samoa suffers from the success of jr and yours ideology.

      The deaths are the result of a measles outbreak caused by low #vaccines rates. Antivaccine activists were not the main drivers there, but worked hard to contribute and are doing their best to make it worse. Fair to call that out.

      The recent mumps outbreak hit what, 27 out more than 700, showing the effect of vaccines. Not a good argument for your pro disease side of things. Neither is Samoa. And it’s a well known fact that the death rate from measles can skyrocket in vulnerable populations.

      It’s also not related to my point about the measles outbreak. Different diseases, different situations. I think the more conscientious antivaccine activists do find the Samoa outbreak painful, so they’re struggling. First step: try and explain it away. Hope they’ll get to 2nd.

      There is no such thing as a conscientious antivaccine activist.

          There, we disagree. I think there’s a large group between hesitant parents and the leaders without scruples who think they’re doing good because they believe alternative facts. They’re the foot soldiers, come to rally, speak online. These are the ones I have in mind.

          Even good people can get trapped in a bad alternate reality, in the right circumstances.
