Well, Amos - I can't say the outhor of the book is getting maony from anybody but the people who buy his books. There are lots of home-produced, sensationalist publications like this. I suppose the writer is a huckster - but I also suppose he's a true believer in his anti-immunization paranoia.

And yes, I would suppose it's also quite true that the drug and vaccine manufacturers may often value profits over health. But in general, I think the medical profession is honorable.

And Gargoyle, I think the wife and kid will survive - protected by the fact that most people around them have been immunized, reducing the rate of contagion.
