President-elect Donald Trump will meet Tuesday with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a noted skeptic of vaccine safety, to talk about the issue. Incoming White House press secretary Sean Spicer briefly shared the meeting with reporters on the transition's daily press call. He did not add any additional information, outside of disclosing the topic: "vaccines and immunizations."

Maybe Trump has a place for Jenny McCarthy in the administration.

quote:

Trump has previously raised questions about a link between vaccines and autism, tweeting in 2014 that there are "many" cases that suggest a link.


We elected a guy who thinks there's a connection between vaccinations and autism.

Update: Putin doesn't want Americans to have vaccines.

Trump appoints crazy person as head of vaccine safety panel.

I have no problem with him hearing from both sides of the issue as long as he also meets with a vaccine advocate. The link between Vaccine and Autism has been debunked as completely as something can be.

I hope he doesn't do anything completely stupid in this area as president. Leave medical decisions to people trained in medicine.

Oddly enough it's urban areas and liberal states that have all the whooping cough and measles outbreaks...

Good thing Barron doesn't live in Chicago, some if I had a son type would have fricked him up.

Well, unfortunately, the COO of the Cleveland Clinic apparently believes the same.

Might as well throw a welcome party at this point for whooping cough, measles, mumps, etc...

It's ridiculous, but doesn't seem to be going away.

So you believe Trump should have refused to meet with the son of Bobby Kennedy and nephew of Pres John F. Kennedy?

You're a bigot!

So making emotional decisions is a good thing now?

Why are you a science denier? Shouldn't we explore each and every piece of data? Or just the ones that fit your desired conclusions?

The 'Vaccines Cause Autism' Brigade are the science deniers. There are more holes in the theory of relativity.

trump has them spinning

they're for deregulation and lower taxes
they're tough on Russia

they'll flip on decades old party rhetoric just to criticize him for something that's not really that big of a deal like the carrier deal...and he's not even in office yet

There is currently a huge mumps outbreak in the Northwest Arkansas. One of the more conservative spots in the entire country.
