Arguing with Anti-Vaxxer friend

There are no guarantees in life. Every single medication bears at least some risk. Aspirin, vitamins, etc. Nothing is perfect.
The probability of neurotoxicity and injury is a lot smaller than the probability of contracting and transmitting a preventable disease. The risk of dying in a car accident when you get into the car and drive to work is a lot bigger than the risk of a vaccine injury.

IKR?  I was not expecting that, lol.  I actually had to read the whole thing and try to understand it.. 😂😭  She definitely gave me more work than I was expecting, which was refreshing.  But, then when I linked her to a summary of over forty papers (including meta-analyses), and a court ruling that overwhelmingly  support the safety of vaccines, she said she’d read them all and wasn’t interested. She insists the mercury is dangerous. She has changed pediatricians twice in order to find someone who will  allow a ‘one at a time’ immunization schedule.  This is a dear friend of mine from college, so I’m not exactly sure how to have a conversation like this with her.
Nay_Sayer: “Nothing is impossible if you dream big enough, or in this case, nothing is impossible if you use a barrel of KY Jelly and a miniature horse.”

Wiser words were never spoken.
