and faults a number of "anti-vaccination" articles, including Alan Phillips'
Dispelling Vaccination Myths. An interesting researcher (pathguy.com/vacdeath.htm) Friedlander is "undertaking a project to publish the significant findings in the autopsy reports of children of who have died as a result of immunizations."
