Smallpox
Inoculations Begin With 4 Connecticut Doctors - Note that the reference to
Israel's smallpox program did not mention that, as noted in another New York
Times article,
"Israel uses the Lister vaccine strain, different from the strain used by
the United States. Dr. Lev said that Lister was less virulent than the American
strain and has fewer side effects."
The causes of autism spectrum disorders - The so-called "good
epidemiological evidence" against an autism/vaccination connection is arguably,
not definitively, "good". Also, please note that "genetic factors" often
require "triggers", i.e., an environmental cause, and that vaccinations might
well provide that trigger.
Addressing Public Trust in Immunisation - There's a great example of a
misleading statement in the following: "16.
Simian Virus 40
& Human CancerThe US National Cancer Institute, Sept 23 2002. Clinical
investigations show no link between polio vaccine and cancer. More information
at
WHO"
Well, there are also clinical investigations that do show a link. To read
