2. Argh, a link to Kennedy's Rolling Stone article!

4. It's a prestigious journal!
I don't know about you, but when I want accurate information about some scientific controversy, I'm more likely to trust a journal with a picture of Johnny Depp on the cover.

3. "Darwinism" at work
I liked the guy who said you can only get Hep B from sex. He is a good candidate for early withdrawal from the gene pool.

5. I was surprised...
most DUers apparently didn't want to recommend a course of action to the OP - they said to ask the doc. I was expecting to see "Vaccines are teh evul!!1!". Oh well, there's always next time I suppose.

6. Only because it was locked so quickly
I know from experience that the anti-science loons tend to be more active in the middle of the night...
(present company excluded of course....:) )
