It's funny how even when these extremely educated and well informed people take time off their important jobs to address claims that have already been disproved, retards like you still don't care. You'll persist in your idiotic conspiracy theory no matter how much evidence is thrown in your face.

Second opinion, what second opinion? There both in favor of vaccines.

Vaccines are fraud. Wake up sheeple.

did parents have mercury fillings in relation to the question of autism?

I think they are only letting in experts who know what they are talking about. You don't need to let an opinion on if it's delusional.

People who don't look to Fox or CNN for news and analysis.

"Unless vaccination can be 100% PROVEN HARMLESS"

There is no such thing as 100% safe with anything, ever.

"Second opinion, what second opinion? There both in favor of vaccines."

I suppose you are in favor of polio?

? Where is the second opinion? If there are so many questioning the side effects of vaccines, surely they could find one willing to come on the show? You don't bring in 2 people who hold same opinions AND truthfully call your show "Second Opinion." wth?

(btw: I don't know where I fall on the issue, just critiquing the program. I don't think anything said on program furthered my knowledge on the matter.)

Please look into the issues and make sure to become well informed before you let anyone inject foreign substances of which you know very little about and are not even able to verify the actual contents of the vial DIRECTLY into you and your children's bloodstreams. Then you'll be able to make a more insightful, meaningful decision about your health and the health of your little loved ones.

America's vaccine policy is riddled with controversy because of the very real and serious risks beyond this puffy piece's portrayal of the issues. These claimed benefits contradict plenty of the published data available.

Unless vaccination can be 100% PROVEN HARMLESS, which it can't because, quite frankly, it isn't, we should NEVER promote vaccines without informed consent. EVER.
