I would like to see what you guys think about this angle. Thank you.I wasn't aware Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey had degrees in the subject. Oh wait...they don't. Knock it off Pippy...that was fear-mongering. If it was an educational piece, it would have referenced a new study showing the connection between vaccines and autism. Instead, it talked at length about a study involving primates and a completely different vaccine, the results of which have not been released yet, nor has the study gone through peer review, nor have the results been verified or repeated. This is science we are talking about. You don't just go along with whatever someone in a white lab coat says...you have to publish a study that can be tested repeatedly and come up with the same results.

All that report is, is an attempt to discredit the trial of Andrew Wakefield, who was found in violation of ethics laws earlier this year. They are running to the defence of the only study that supported their claims about vaccines, even though this study has been rejected by the scientific community, retracted from The Lancet, and numerous other follow-up studies failed to find the same connection that Wakefield claims he did.
The only "censorship" that happens in science is when someone writes a paper that has a number of falsehoods in it, and these falsehoods are revealed by further studies. There is no point continuing support of a paper that isn't scientifically true, so it is rejected by the scientific community. If anything, this is censorship of wrong information, which, when such information could lead to a lot of people's death, is a good thing imo.
