study I posted...does he think that a CDC study is just a few bureaucrats getting together in a room?...these are people who are members of one of the agency's 25 "Prevention Research Center" teams, and they do REAL research for the CDC...in this case, it's for evaluating the efficacy of vaccines for kids.
When you're done scanning this impressive list of authors...go read the CDC Study I posted and learn why vaccinating kids is the right thing to do.
