A doctor who claims her son got autism as a result of being vaccinated is speaking out about a possible double-standard held by our government. She says the government is paying her a legal settlement for her son's medical care over the fact that her son got autism from vaccinations, but that they told her to keep quiet about it or she'd lose the money. So, she says, this proves that the government recognizes the link between vaccinations and autism, but that they're telling the public that no such link exists. I don’t know about the autism-vaccination issue, but the idea that our government might hold some kind of double-standard about anything or be misleading about stuff is really difficult to believe!
There was this one part where the doctor was saying she wanted to raise awareness of the possibility, but that she didn’t want to create mass panic or anything, and then the news anchor said that nobody wanted to see mass panic. But that’s not really true, is it? There are terrorists who want to see mass panic, aren’t there? And what about anarchists, don't they want that too? Are we just going to dismiss their dreams like that? Isn’t that kind of rude? No wonder they’re mad at us.
And I can tell you, for fans of 1950s science fiction movies, mass panic is usually indicative of something really great: giant monsters! Yes, anyone who loves these Ray Harryhausen movies (and the also-rans as well) knows that whenever you see mass panic, you’re about to see some really awesome dinosaur or something come rampaging around the corner. It’s super-cool! Yes, when large groups of people in vintage clothing are running away and trampling each other to death, there’s always going to be a reason for that, and whether it’s a Rhedosaurus or a Giant Claw-like goofball creature, it’s probably going to be awesome. Seeing these movies was great, but to be there in real life would be outrageously gnarlily wicked! (Even if you got eaten!)
But I suppose it would be undesirable if mass panic happened and then there wasn’t any cool stop-motion creature trying to take over the world. That would just be lame, I guess. Oh well. So then I guess I hope vaccinations don’t end up causing autism.
