    Forgive me, I didn’t mean to leave anyone with the impression that there was any attempt at logic from antivaxxers.

    My point is that the industry that rakes in riches on the suffering of the sick has left ample reasons for people to distrust it and not believe anything that it says.

    I’ve got a family member who is not getting their daughter the HPV vaccine because of “the lies”. That same family member? She barely survived a cervical cancer that was likely there because she was HPV positive. No logic there at all.

      Oh no I totally understand your point and no need to apologize. I just also wanted to add my two cents.
