Vaccination and Autism

I’m going to be live on NECN New England Cable Network News at 6pm EST Monday February 9. It streams at necn.com as well. The topic is the safety of vaccine. I am absolutely in favor of people getting vaccinated. It saves lives. It does not cause autism. In every medical intervention, there is never 100% good response. There is always risk. But the risk of spreading measles and destroying herd immunity is definite. Autism is hard, death by disease is far worse.
