What a world we live in. People are allowed to have opinions. Whether it be politics or religion we are our own voices.
However, the internet has a voice as well. The University of Google has postured self imposed doctorates of information. Parents of autistic children are caught in the crossfire and it is contentious.
Today Time.com talks about Vaccine War: Autism, Flu, and Science. The notion that the future of our children remains in a blog war is fairly daunting. Health and Safety are punctuated as pivotal: Infectious-disease bugs continue to travel the globe, always ready to launch the next big public-health threat. Pockets of intentionally unvaccinated children provide a perfect place for a disease to squat, leading to outbreaks that spread to other unprotected kids, infants and the elderly.
Perhaps the most reasonable approach is stated here: If we are to have a rational conversation about the best way to fight flu, infectious disease and autism, we need to recognize that these are scientific questions and use the best research—not the data that supports our preconceived views—to answer them.
Additionally, The White House announced today that Obama's Daughters Get the H1N1Vaccine, after the first family received the traditional flu shot last month. Whatever your political persuasion, it is clear that the Obamas love their daughters. Presidential premise has no bearing here. Their choice as parents was supported by the science they believe.
