re: Anti- science liberals vs anti-science conservatives: who is more dangerous?

From a quick google search:

Although the data clashes with some peoples' perception of the typical vaccine skeptic, it chimes with previous surveys. In 2009 the Pew Research Center found almost 50% more Democrats than Republicans said they would take the swine flu vaccine. More detailed data emerged last year from a Public Policy Polling survey of 1,247 U.S. voters. PPP found 12% of people who described themselves as very liberal believe vaccines cause autism, compared with 22% of hardline conservatives.

What both surveys show is that antivaccination views are held by just a small minority of people. As the Yale-Harvard report puts it, "a very large supermajority believes that the benefits of childhood vaccinations outweigh their risks."

Widespread anti vaccine movement is more damaging than widespread GW disbelief. Both of our worries rely on what-ifs.
You rely on GW not being bullshite and I rely on stupidity growing. Since it is a fact that if most people shunned vaccinations people would die rather than uncertainty, I consider it the more harmful movement.
