Trivia
Director Andrew Wakefield was main author of the study printed in the scientific journal "The Lancet" in 1998, which started the controversy between vaccines and autism. This study was later retracted by The Lancet, and Wakefield lost his medical license as a result. Dr. Wakefield, however, was not the only one found guilty. Co-author of the study Dr. J.A. Walker-Smith was also found guilty and stricken from the medical record by the same ruling of the General Medical Council (GMC) in Britain in 2010, although he had retired from practice in 2001. In contrast to Dr. Wakefield's insurance carrier, Dr. Walker-Smith's paid for an appeal, and in 2012 the High Court under Justice Mitting cleared Walker-Smith of all charges, concluding that the GMC's ruling had been flawed by "inadequate and superficial reasoning, and, in a number of instances, a wrong conclusion." Mr. Justice Mitting even called for changes in the way the GMC's hearings are conducted, saying "It would be a misfortune if this were to happen again."

Quotes
Del Matthew Bigtree: So I had sent you what William Thompson has said is the fraud of the CDC, all that data that was missing. Did you get a chance to really look it over?
Rachael Ross: It's... uhm... it's really unbelievable, how blatantly the data were switched around. It made me question whether or not this organization that's been mandating how I practice medicine... well, if they're lying about this, and leaving data out of this particular study, *what else am I being lied to about?*

If you think your doctor has been poisoning you, this is your movie

The premise is that people at the CDC, and ostensibly, the pharmaceutical companies and all doctors who administer vaccines, are all in on a giant conspiracy to kill you. But not just you. Since pharmaceutical company executives and their families, and doctors and their families, and politicians and their families, and the CDC and all its employees and their families, all get vaccines, apparently the conspiracy is one of mass-murder suicide. So, yeah. If that makes sense, enjoy, this one's for you.

If however, you think "teaching the controversy" is bunk, and that it just might be the case that not all stories have two equal sides, and that everyone is not, in fact, out to kill everyone, then congratulations, you've earned the right to propagate and you should spread your genes so that those who believe the first paragraph above become extinct.
