I like Dr Rachie - she always speaks a lot of sense

Interesting that The Project have a policy of not giving a voice to the anti-vaxxers.

I actually do feel like the tide is turning. Maybe I'm in a way too optimistic mood this morning.

An SBS sponsored documentary regarding vaccination "Jabbed" is on Sunday night on SBS. For Dr Rachie's interview with the maker see the current Aus Skeptic pod.

Thanks for the video prudie. The idea that air time should not be given to the anti vaxers may be analogous to Richard Dawkins example when asked why he does not want to debate creationists. In a discussion about human reproduction you would not give air time to someone who was arguing in favor of the stork theory.

PS: I noticed that your looks have improved prudie. I was wondering if there was a common theme here - beings with similar intelligence perhaps?
