It is just such an emotive topic and TBH whenever I see an article that concerns *anyone* from the Australian Skeptics OR from the AVN I immediately just switch off and look the other way: too much vested interests and neither 'side' is willing to actually discuss research and promote research that is actually concerning risk/benefit ratio; or even looking at the reasons why people vaccinate or do not vaccinate or delay vaccinate or partial schedule vaccinate for example.

this is an article intended at 'flaming' the AVN that had a rather significant win in the NSW court recently and IMO doesnt really offer much but the usual bantering that you find from both the AS and AVN...

and seriously, people that read these sorts of articles are not going to use them to help make the decision to vaccinate or not - all these articles serve (and i speak from both pro and anti vaccination standpoints) is to re-confirm peoples beliefs either way.
