Anti-vaxxer celebrities - How 'against vaccines' are they?
Is Jenny McCarthy Anti-Vaccine? Jenny McCarthy is arguably the most famous "anti-vaccine" activist. The truth is, her views aren't black and white on the subject. She says, "We need to get rid of the toxins, the mercury... It has not been removed from the shots...I've never told anyone to not vaccinate."
Aidan Quinn Says His Child is Vaccine Damaged
"She was a normal child," Aidan Quinn says. "Way above normal, in fact. And then she received a vaccination. She got a 106 degree fever, she turned blue, and she woke up the next day a completely damaged child after that."Kristin Cavalari Will Not Vaccinate Her Children
"I'm trying to make the best decision for my kid. There are very scary statistics out there regarding what is in vaccines and what they cause -- asthma, allergies, ear infections, all kinds of things. And we feel like we're making the best decision for our kids."Alicia Silverstone Is Adamantly Anti-Vaccine
"... there is increasing anecdotal evidence from doctors who have gotten distressed phone calls from parents claiming their child was 'never the same' after receiving a vaccine. And I personally have friends whose babies were drastically affected in this way."Billy Corgan Is an "Anti-Vaxxer"
"I do not trust those who make the vaccines, or the apperatus [sic] behind it all to push it on us thru fear. This is not judgment; it is a personal decision based on research, intuition, conversations with my doctor and my 'family'. If the virus comes to take me Home, that is between me and the Lord."Rob Schneider is Outspoken for Freedom of Choice and Vaccine Dangers
"This policy of one size fits all Vaccine schedule for every child is as absurd as giving the same eye prescription glasses to every child. The fact is EVERY CHILD IS DIFFERENT and there is currently NO SYSTEM or thought to which child could be more susceptible to adverse reactions including permanent injury and death from any Vaccine or Vaccine ingredients."Mayim Bialik Wants Us To Choose Our Vaccines Carefully
Mayim Bialik, with a PhD in neuroscience from UCLA, says, "The number of vaccines that you and I received when we were kids is a third or a fourth less than what kids get now. So my feeling is you can really do whatever you want, just like I get to do whatever I want, but I don't inherently think that no one should get the flu, for example. And that's my personal opinion."Jim Carrey Is Not 100% Anti-Vaccine
"The anecdotal evidence of millions of parents who've seen their totally normal kids regress into sickness and mental isolation after a trip to the pediatrician's office must be seriously considered. The legitimate concern they and many in the scientific community have that environmental toxins, including those found in vaccines, may be causing autism and other disorders (Aspergers, ADD, ADHD), cannot be dissuaded by a show of sympathy and a friendly invitation to look for the 'real' cause of autism anywhere but within the lucrative vaccine program."Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Is Adamantly Anti-Mercury
Kennedy accuses the federal government of knowing and ignoring the dangers of mercury in vaccines. He openly accuses the CDC of blatant corruption."They get the shot, that night they have a fever of a hundred and three, they go to sleep, and three months later their brain is gone," Kennedy said. "This is a holocaust, what this is doing to our country."
He later apologized for using the word holocaust and said, "I employed the term during an impromptu speech as I struggled to find an expression to convey the catastrophic tragedy of autism which has now destroyed the lives of over 20 million children and shattered their families."
