Publisher’s summary
In Anti-Vaxxers, Jonathan Berman explores the phenomenon of the anti-vaccination movement, recounting its history from its 19th-century antecedents to today’s activism, examining its claims, and suggesting a strategy for countering them.
After providing background information on vaccines and how they work, Berman describes resistance to Britain’s Vaccination Act of 1853, showing that the arguments anticipate those made by today’s anti-vaxxers. He discusses the development of new vaccines in the 20th century, including those protecting against polio and MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), and the debunked paper that linked the MMR vaccine to autism; the CDC conspiracy theory promoted in the documentary Vaxxed; recommendations for an alternative vaccination schedule; Kennedy’s misinformed campaign against thimerosal; and the much-abused religious exemption to vaccination.
Anti-vaxxers have changed their minds, but rarely because someone has given them a list of facts. Berman argues that anti-vaccination activism is tied closely to how people see themselves as parents and community members. Effective pro-vaccination efforts should emphasize these cultural aspects rather than battling social media posts.

As always, thank you for uploading evidence of just what Leftists do, what they are.
When multiple people you personally know, suffer (serious) side-effects of the Poke, then those who want to scream “Scientific Monitoring Protocols indicate 1-in-a-million!”, are, simply, lying filth.
There is a point where not believing your own lying eyes, marks you as an absolute fool. And beyond that, such people are nothing but complicit soul-whores. Pathetic beyond belief.
And I do so wish the abyss upon those who have caused this garbage to be shoved into the arms of children. Including the likes of this author.
February 21st, 2024
Fully agree NukerRabbit. Not an Anti-Vaxxer myself but the Clot-Shot is a lethal cocktail deliberately designed to reduce the world population to 1 billion. No conspiracy theory here. This is planned genocide.
February 21st, 2024
They developed a vaccine for stupidity.
Guess who didn’t want to risk it?
February 21st, 2024
Yah, convince us
You don’t even need to “challenge us”, provide your evidence and evidence that contradicts our evidence.
It’s very very simple and it was the way debates like these were addressed since time in memorial—right up until Covid—when this stoped being how arguments like these were decided.
So convince us with your science and more importantly, convince us that our science is wrong or nullified by yours.
The only reason this “debate” has existed for so long is because you have not been willing to have a debate or look at our science.
Im sure most us who are not even necessity against vaccines in general, but who avidly feel the covid vaccines are one of the most nefarious and deadly medical intervention ever to be perpetrated on the human race.
Convince Us—-
February 21st, 2024
I’m gonna agree that the mRNA vaccines used in Covid-19 are something different than what traditional vaccines were (neutered versions of actual viruses). The SARS-Cov2 “vaccine” was rushed untested and so forth. I’ll wait for the data on that. But all that doesn’t apply to traditional vaccines which have been extensively tested, right?
February 21st, 2024
Yea, they wanted to inject us with an EXPERIMENTAL and untested shot? And one that can take over a cells replication?? I think the people who had the stupid vaccine shot pryderi says were the ones who walked right in and got the shots.
I even saw a women in an inner city announcing to crowds. “I dont ask about it, dont think about it, we just want to get the shot”… Yea, that sounds convincing.
And how we have all these young people dropping dead. and getting clots forming all over their bodies.
February 21st, 2024
@userabuser No vaccine has ever been safety-tested. Manufacturers simply described them as “inevitably unsafe” to Ronald Reagan and were granted legal immunity as a result. Vaccine manufacturers never had to establish safety prior to making their shots available to the public after that. “Safe and effective” has only ever been a marketing slogan based on no evidence. Scary but true, and easily verifiable.
February 21st, 2024
Vaccines are a great thing, Kesseler and Ellul told us what they are for and i would have to agree. After all, between quiet/ painless vs other means of more discordant stimuli, which one wound you choose. Our masters are truly merciful
February 21st, 2024
shpoonk, I’m sorry to have to inform you that you are mistaken on that point. The Polio vaccine was tested, just as an example. Search for the term “trial” here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polio_vaccine
Plus, we have extensive data from their use over the last 60 years. I think the best book on this is Paul Offit’s Deadly Choices but there’s no audio version. He goes through all the objections I could think of and then some.

“Safe and effective”
My arse

A lot of people are scared. Their instincts scream “Fight or flight!” to them. These people are afraid of dying and the change. And because an individual’s, if your’e not Musk or, well, Trump, opinion rarely matters or is heard, he panics and goes to full irrationality mode. He screams with the like-minded and opposes absolutely everything that is “forced” on him. He glorifies people who are heard and their opinion and supports the most ridiculous ideas if they are against any imagined establishment. These people are also what we call “stupid”.
February 21st, 2024
@useerabuser
You’re linking to Wikipedia as a valid & unquestionable source of information. Dig deeper, there is considerable information challenging the safety & testing of the Polio Vaccine.

the Ruling Class Global Capitalists, want us dead.
February 21st, 2024
As the above comments show, antivaxxers aren’t interested in facts. They start with the conviction that vaccines are a conspiracy to do them harm, and anything that contradicts that idea is ipso facto part of the conspiracy.
The simple truth is now that 5.6 billion people have had Covid vaccines, and the bad reactions are below the noise level. That excess deaths the last few years have been higher in areas with lower vaccination. Demonstrated nicely in the US where red states following the antivax religion have a 38% higher death rate.

@Gweilo.
Actually clown, what really irritates us is the absolute disregard twats like you have for our position, the complete certainty only you and your opinion matters.
Here is an idea…leave us the hell alone and mind your own damned business.
February 21st, 2024
@Hayst
We don’t ‘disregard’ your position.
What would be the point, you aren’t going to be around much longer.
February 21st, 2024
The next mRNA vaccines won’t be experimental. Then you’ll have to come up with new dumbsh*t excuses that are just as whiny and incoherent as the ones you give now. ‘1-in-a-million’ shows just how ignorant the basis of these antivax arguments are: it’s more like 1-in-10 million or 1-in-50 million. More children overdose from Tylenol given by their parents than have died from the vaccine. A poor response to the vaccine would have yielded an even poorer response to SARS-CoV-2. And since it was mRNA-based, the simulated immune response wasn’t even fighting anything. Your “we’re gonna wait for the horse dewormer’ mentality and groupthink will help keep vaccine supplies stocked when the next pandemic comes and those of us capable of actual thinking want the jab.
February 21st, 2024
@Hayst Your position IS stupid and that is exactly how we treat it. We don’t have to accept the lowest common denominator of cognitive thought to make you feel included. You likely can’t be bothered to use someone’s correct pronouns yet you want everyone else to entertain your illogical drivel. You also likely made your business everybody else’s when you didn’t wear a mask or social distance or avoid gatherings. You’re likely the kind of person who went out and protested school closures while your child sat at home struggling to read wondering who could possibly help them. Rest assured your legacy of dumbf*ckery will live on since you people cried so much that opportunist politicians codified your so-called right to kill others. Because you don’t believe in germs, now everybody else gets to die because you’re a f*ck. You’ll be remembered as the ‘blood-letters’ of the 21st century. It’s sad you’ll be remembered at all.

@ eyeb1 - It’s understandable really, ’cause I’m a poor retiree and I want you dead, too.
February 21st, 2024
@Hayst, I know lots of family and friends in your position so I’m sympathetic. I just try to understand and would never support forcing anyone to put something into their bodies. As long as you quarantine, isolate, wear masks, respect lockdowns, etc. while the pandemic is going on. I think you’ll accept that there’s plenty of good evidence that these measures stop the spread, right?
February 21st, 2024
@ Malachie520.
You have been needled sport, so it should make no difference what the rest of us do.

I encourage them to NOT vaxx their below average kids. Also, car seats, seat belts & helmets were created by the deep NWO state to steal your freedom-N-stuff. Don’t use them or let your kids use them. Gravity is also a hoax, originally invented to steal the election & all future elections from trump - ignoring gravity is perfectly safe.

Sadly, apnea, there are some brute aspects of reality that can’t be denied. If you don’t believe me jump from the 50th story of a building. No wishing away the fact that you’re going to be a stain on the sidewalk in a few seconds. These aspects of reality can’t be eliminated through some change of perspective. Try it if you don’t believe me. Microscopic pathogens are one such ugly aspect of reality. It’s a simple fix to vaccinate yourself from with a simple shot or else deal with the chronic diseases they cause and, if they don’t do you in, take remedial measures for the rest of your life and possibly spread the infection to others. I’m sure people in the early 1900s would have happily given their right arms so that they and their kids could have been spared from polio, smallpox, yellow fever, typhoid, etc. We actually have these miracles but people would rather listen to conspiracy theories and misinformation than read about history and well-documented research and large-sample long-term trials.
February 22nd, 2024
@ userabuser.
Are you clowns really attempting to equate polio and smallpox vaccines with the clotshot.
Seriously?
February 22nd, 2024
Thank you for this book!
February 22nd, 2024
@Hayst: antivaxxers keep saying we’ re all going to fall over dead from vaccines. Any day now…. millions of bodies in the streets. For sure, all “suddenly dead”.
February 23rd, 2024
@Gweilo
Rubbish…most just want to be left alone.
February 23rd, 2024
Hayst,
I think you who are conflating the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA “vaccine” with traditional vaccines. Scroll up, you’ll see I want to be clear that I think the former is experimental and I’ll wait for the data to come in. I also said I’d never support forcing anyone to inject/consume/internalize anything into their bodies and even coercing people into begrudgingly taking them without their freely giving their informed consent. I’ll even go further to say that the pandemic measures were ham-fisted: There was no credit given to those who had natural immunity by getting Covid through accepting a positive anti-body test; ruining children’s education for a year or more even though serious outcomes in the below-20 population was astronomically low; among other criticisms I have. But you’ll have to concede that getting a variant is more dangerous with it’s risks of fatalities, spread, chronic “long covid” risk, etc. than taking the vaccine (depending on the version, of course with different risk profiles of Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, Novavax, Johnson&Johnson, and AstraZeneca…not to mention the Sputnik V).

Yes, more cases of Polio are caused by the vaccine than natural borne viruses. I consider this a success story. Once the safer killed-virus Salk vaccine is the only one used and the Sabin live-virus vaccine is eliminated I think the vast majority (that is in the range of single digits in populations of millions, by the way) will be eliminated. I don’t think the Polio vaccine is even given any more here in the states. Read David M. Oshinsky’s Polio: An American Story or Paul A Offit
’s Deadly Choices: How the Anti-Vaccine Movement Threatens Us All.

“I think you who are conflating the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA “vaccine” with traditional vaccines”
Actually sport, I was responding to the tools that snidely posted prior.
I also note that the MSM is picking up on the latest study that confirms the adverse reactions to the clotshots.
So we can see who the low IQ sheep are, can’t we.
February 24th, 2024
Wow This did not age well at all.
February 24th, 2024
Hayst,
About that video by Raymond Francis:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63m0ILkfPck
While Francis seems to stick mostly to facts (they are skewed but true) I do take issue with his claim about Polio vaccine’s link to non-hodgkin’s lymphoma. But again, this is based on vaccines grown in monkey tissue like the Sabin vaccine, not the Salk vaccine incubated in clean, young, low-division WI-38 human tissue cells. There is no known disease, abnormality, nor issue known to result from those host cells whatsoever.
Read The Vaccine Race: Science, Politics, and the Human Costs of Defeating Disease by Meredith Wadman for a fuller explication.
To get some sense of how skewed this discussion is I would compare it to those people who after their morning cup of coffee have gotten heart attacks. It happens but is there a link? Or to something akin to discussing plane crashes when talking about travel. The overwhelming, vast, incomparably larger majority of people benefit and it’s unfortunate that there have been anyone harmed at all but you have to keep it in context. Otherwise, you could use the same claims to never get out of bed in the morning given what could happen to you outside your bed.
The polio virus has been almost completely eliminated in the wild and may become listed in the very near future on the short list of cankers which have been made extinct along with smallpox. This is due to the success of the vaccine. But it could also flare up again and become what it was in it’s worst plague years. It all depends on us to take it seriously and not get led down the rabbit hole of misinformation.

@Tiger62
> deliberately designed to reduce the world population to 1 billion. No conspiracy theory here. This is planned genocide.
Yeah, no conspiracy to see here folks - as Gweilo hints, they must be hiding all the dead bodies!
February 28th, 2024
No one should be forced to take a vaccine. If you refuse the vaccine you should have to sign a release stating that if you contract the illness you will be at the end of the line when it comes to treatment. You want your freedom? Fine. Accept it and the consequences. Don’t expect society to bail you out when you make the wrong choice.
February 28th, 2024
There’s no way anti-vaxxers will be successfully challenged. It is a lost cause. And rightfully so.
February 29th, 2024
@timebiter1355: no one is forced to take a vaccine. But the problem is, they don’t just endanger themselves, but everyone. They spread disease whether they survive or not, since the same people refuse to isolate themselves. No one is refused emergency treatment, even when these 1diots invite illness and require intensive care, reducing the capacity to help other people.
What we actually should do, but won’t, is to offer a choice: vaccine or cyanide. If they believe vaccine is a poison no difference to them.
March 14th, 2024
There is nuance to this debate that few will acknowledge. One thing I am certain of though, is that mRNA vaccines are poison.
March 14th, 2024
@dcull111: You’re certain.
Your certainty is a religious tenet, not related to any facts.
In the real world, over 5 billion people have been vaccinated with MRNA vaccines. And no piles of bodies.
Thousands of statistical studies found no anomalous deaths due to vaccines.
March 29th, 2024
Lots of dead. All cause mortality is through the roof and nobody seems to care. We all know of unexpected and mysterious deaths, we’ve all lost loved ones.
Not getting that poison was the best decision of my life. So pleased I never gave it to my kids
April 2nd, 2024
@Gwelio You seem so sure of the Covid “vax”. Fine. But you know nothing of its long-term effects. To act as if you’re positive that there will be none is just ignorance and arrogance.
May 4th, 2024
. For women, the risk of blood clots after the J&J vaccine is estimated to be 5.8 per million. For men, the risk of blood clots after J&J is 2.2 per million.
It is important to put this risk in context. The overall risk of an unvaccinated person dying from a COVID-19 infection is much higher than the risk of clots from the Johnson & Johnson or AstraZeneca vaccines
May 4th, 2024
For everyone talking about how effective it was… They didn’t check that the polio vaccine was 80% effective. And we eradicated polio. Go science.
July 24th, 2024
Big Pharma makes tons of money (and pays off politicians) on an experimental drug, but forces people to take it or lose your job, unable to travel and violate the HIPPA Laws. And this is for a China created virus that is still 99.8% survivable!
Why not force people to take the Flu Shot since in kills about 60K Americans each year?
