Some people are upset that I conducted an anti-vaccine interview recently

Some people are upset that I conducted an anti-vaccine interview recently on GO VEGAN RADIO WITH BOB LINDEN (link below) with Kent Heckenlively, author of “Inoculated – How Science Lost Its Soul in Autism”, presumably without any inspection or consideration of the hidden documents he seeks to expose.

Vaccination is a religion in this country, and to be anti-vaccine is to be anti-American. Vaccines are the one non-vegan product that many vegans vehemently defend. Vegans and anti-corporatists who usually oppose pharmaceutical companies – and animal experimentation – give them a pass when it comes to vaccines.
I am happy to not be a breeder of humans, but had I had children, I never would have allowed them to be vaccinated. I think that it is criminal and a violation of rights for the state to mandate such invasive action. Who owns your body – the state or you?
Who owns your mind – the state or you? Don’t people have a right to consider what is being forced into their bodies? Why are vegans advocating for something very much non-vegan? Why do you accept pharmaceutical industry and government propaganda so readily when clearly the ingredients are a toxic, carcinogenic dead animal smoothie. Why would you not question the safety of injections (especially into newborn babies) containing such ingredients as viruses, bacteria, mercury, formaldehyde, preservatives, eggs, chick kidney, monkey kidneys, bovine extract, calf serum, lactose, gelatin from pigs, aborted human fetuses, human blood, human DNA, MSG, yeast extract, and other horrific, toxic ingredients…

    agree 1000% Bob! i don’t think i have been attacked worse than the times i spoke out against vaccines and most of them were vegans! just another case of using people’s fear against them in order to make a profit. i can’t figure out which are worse-the pro GMO vegans or the pro vaccine vegans. unfortunately in many cases the people who support one also support the other.

    btw, the thing that the vaccine pushers will NEVER tell people is that almost all the diseases they are trying to prevent came about as a result of enslaving non-human animals.

    Vaccination is not a religion but a science, the anti-vaccination efforts ate most compatible to a religion as they are based on an [admitted] lie and scientific illiteracy.

    I don’t know of your interviewer, but “hidden” documents is a sufficient indicator of the level of nonsense he’s peddling, and no doubt profiteering from his sociopathic lies.

    By all means oppose vaccinations on the basis of animal experimentation, cruelty, and the fact that most vaccinations are only necessary because of breeding animals (to consume), but to oppose them from ignorance and the continued preparation of falsehoods discredits you.

    Pandering to this anti-science nonsense dangerous and is nothing but foolishness that kills children.

    Bob, it’s as if you didn’t actually read the comments on that episode of your show: https://www.goveganradio.com/28-november-2016/
    you know- the people that are upset. Your blog post here did not address their main points at all. I think it is important to consider what people are pointing out is wrong with your coverage featuring this anti-vaccine guy’s claims as factual. He is clearly wrong.

    Also please read this before scare mongering about toxins in vaccines:

    Bob you are wrong on vaccines causing autism. Not much I can say that hasn’t already been said on that episode by others. You really need to reexamine the science. You can disagree with vaccines because they are not vegan, but you are wrong about their safety profile and you’re support for anti-vaccine conspiracies. Ironically there’s a powerful parallel here with climate change denial. You listen to science there, yet you don’t with vaccines. The CDC cover-up conspiracy is not true. Please take a moment to read this extremely thorough analysis: http://scienceblogs.com/insolence/2014/08/22/brian-hooker-proves-andrew-wakefield-wrong-about-vaccines-and-autism/

    (corrected earlier post)

    I am just now seeing this thread for the first time. I was a microbiologist working with Merck and Co Inc who believed that vaccines were the greatest success of modern medicine — but that was based on what I was “taught” not my own critical thinking after looking for myself at the primary literature.
    .
    I was a vegan BEFORE I became a mother, however, once I had children, doing what I believed best for THEM came before my concerns for other beings. So I looked into the vaccine issue solely to figure out what would be in the long term best interests of my children, and had nothing to do with the vegan issue itself.

    But I do strongly believe in informed consent, and when I heard about some of the problems with vaccines, even though I was doubtful that they could be true….I spent a full year delving into the published science. This was before the interent, so I spent a lot of time at the medical library, on the phone with the CDC’s experts discussing the studies I was reading and frequently contacted my old microbiology professors to discuss what I was finding. I was shocked to not only find strong evidence, that vaccines were not as safe and effective as I had always been told, but that virtually every MD — and ALL my professors had absolutely no knowledge of troubling information I was finding at the medical library. It blew me away to discover that all these staunchly pro-vaccine experts were quite ignorant of important points that were published and very much changed the risk/benefit calculation.

    PLEASE — no matter what your credentials — if you have not taken the time to really examine this issue from the PRIMARY literature (and for yourself!) and see what the truth really is — and then to talk with knowledgeable people who can explain in addition to this, how many studies have been manipulated by special interests, do not criticize those of us who have done this and are just trying to do what is best for our children!

    If you really want to honestly look into this issue, look at the list that my name is linked to it is a great place to start — read the books and THEN look up their references for yourself — if you are open and honest, you will see what the truth is…

    But really you can save yourself the time if you simply…FOLLOW THE MONEY…and think critically…the vaccine issue is just like dairy, we’ve all been misled.

    BTW Science Based Medicine is simply Big Pharma astroturfing — they are pro-gmo and pro-dairy too. Also, here are the REAL facts on what happened to Dr Andrew Wakefield the supposedly discredited doc:

    It is important to read the real facts on this site, because the mainstream media would lose too many advertising dollars (from big pharma) if they told people the truth.
