      Vaccines are not “created from aborted babies.” Two cell lines, each created from an aborted fetus 50+ years ago, are used to grow up the virus stock to manufacture SOME vaccines. That’s a very different thing, as even the very anti-abortion Roman Catholic Church has stated.https://twitter.com/joshlsullivan/status/1213829673609760769 …

      That's absolutely NOT true. We are parents who believe in protecting our freedoms as American citizens. And religions who oppose abortion SHOULD oppose the use of medication created from aborted babies. https://www.chop.edu/centers-programs/vaccine-education-center/vaccine-ingredients/fetal-tissues …

      Of course, the more interesting question is this: Is @joshlsullivan OK with vaccines not made using one of those two cell lines? Does he vaccinate his children with the other vaccines? Often the “fetal cells” gambit is just an excuse for generally being antivaccine.

      In other words, his answer is no. Just as I expect from an antivaxxer. He even throws in some really brain dead antivax misinformation for good measure.🤦🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/joshlsullivan/status/1213839147728801792 …

      Only if vaccines are held to the same standard as other much more rigorously tested medications, given in smaller amounts, and pharmeuceutocal companies can be held responsible instead of our government paying out billions for vaccine injuries.

      Those who parrot easily refuted and quite wrong antivax talking points are not my equal. https://twitter.com/joshlsullivan/status/1213841389668196352?s=21 …https://twitter.com/joshlsullivan/status/1213841389668196352 …

      Typical response from someone who isn’t willing to engage an equal on the “other side” of the argument.

          Look up Dunning-Kruger. You clearly suffer from it.

          Ah, they're trying the old "The sky is plaid, debate me" gambit. So enlightening...
