One minute and thirty seconds on vaccinating your child

If you’ve ever wondered about vaccinating from a sheer numbers perspective and want to hear Penn & Teller cursing quite a bit (well, Penn only if truth be told,) here’s a video for you.

Should you be interested in why more kids are autistic these days you might want to take a look at how autism has been redefined over the years to encompass a lot more than it used to. Before it was several disorders, now it’s autism spectrum disorder.

“The correlation between an increasing number of vaccinations and higher rates of autism has been adequately explained by the concurrent improvements in identifying autistic children; the correlation between between getting vaccinated and showing signs of autism is a result of the ideal window for some vaccinations being at the same time that symptoms of autism naturally develop.” – some dude on the internet

Do the math based on mortality rates alone if you’re wondering whether it’s worth it.
