Fun fact:

People are complaining about the "super shots" like the MMR. They just want what Trump wants: "Spread them out over a period of time."

Donald Trump on Vaccines:

I’m not against vaccinations for your children, I’m against them in 1 massive dose.Spread them out over a period of time & autism will drop!

No more massive injections. Tiny children are not horses—one vaccine at a time, over time.

I am being proven right about massive vaccinations—the doctors lied. Save our children & their future.

Healthy young child goes to doctor, gets pumped with massive shot of many vaccines, doesn’t feel good and changes - AUTISM. Many such cases!

Lots of autism and vaccine response. Stop these massive doses immediately. Go back to single, spread out shots! What do we have to lose.

Trump is onto something here. I believe that eventually we’ll learn that some kids are, for genetic reasons or otherwise, predisposed to react poorly to vaccinations. Whether spreading them out will address that is not known for certain, but could well be the case. Other approaches might also be feasible.

Anecdotes should not be used to make a case, but with enough anecdotes you end up with data. And far too many parents, mothers in particular, have noted pronounced changes in their formally normal children in the few day following a vaccination. Something is going on, even if only with a small subset of the population of children undergoing vaccination.

There is absolutely no doubt that vaccinations are lifesavers and should be encouraged. But if the government requires them, over the objections of a parent, whether uninformed or very informed, that’s a step too far.

By the way the esteemed (in here, by many) reporter, Sharyl Atkisson, has done some good reporting on this, particularly in digging out the stories that controvert the government’s assertion that vaccination is safe and nothing to be concerned about. There’s probably a source in here if someone can find it.

No - some people are complaining about the super shot there are others that are against them totally.

From Gallop...

Additionally, a small segment of the population remains skeptical about the benefits or safety of vaccines -- including 9% who say vaccines are more harmful than the diseases they are designed to protect, and 6% who say certain vaccines can cause autism.
