30. Are you talking about the misinformation from Dr. Sawyer
Edited on Sun Sep-19-10 11:23 PM by mzmolly
in which he falsely claims that parents are concerned about autism ala the measles vaccine and that is somehow related to the friggen pertussis outbreak? Or the quote where the propaganda piece notes a handful of schools may have students who opted out of a single non related vaccine? Need I point out to you that neither of these distractions, noted in the article are related to the California outbreak?

Want to see the part of the article you missed while making unfounded assumptions based upon YOUR preconceived notions?

All of the whooping cough-related deaths in California occurred in babies too young to be fully immunized against the illness, which is why parents and caretakers are being urged to get booster shots. Typically, babies are given a series of vaccinations, then receive booster shots between ages 4 and 6 and again after age 10.
