Vaccines are a plot by big pharma!

Yeah, I'm dealing with two specific anti-vax nuts. The first one is pretty obviously uneducated and can't seem to form a compete sentence without demolishing the English language. He believes in holistic medicine and actually rejects the germ theory altogether. I was kinda surprised to find that kind of lunacy in a world where you can actually see pathogens under a microscope. But, no, he's convinced that people get sick not from bacteria and viruses, but from eating processed foods and red meat. *facepalm*

This 'Holistic' method of treatment has gotten out of hand.

'Holistic' for me means "treating the whole", as such that includes vaccinations, general hygiene, clean water AND whole foods.

I would agree that eating copious amounts of 'processed foods' can be detrimental to your health... Am currently baking my own bread because of the high amounts of Soy protein and additives that keep bread 'Fresh' for a week.

I'm talking about someone who claims we can better our health with better sanitation practices, eating fresh foods and rejecting modern medicine. The first two, I'm cool with as much as possible, but that third one goes into some crazy shit.
