US vaccine panel head is an idiot, questions polio recommendation
By Leah Douglas
WASHINGTON, Jan 23 (Reuters) - The chair of a U.S. government vaccine advisory panel questioned broad vaccine recommendations for polio and other childhood diseases and said promoting individual choice, not public health, is the key aim of the panel, drawing a rebuke on Friday from the nation's top doctors group.
Kirk Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist who was named chair of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's outside Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices in December, made the comments in a Thursday interview on the podcast, "Why Should I Trust You?"
Vaccination against some diseases, like polio, could be reconsidered given advances in medical care, said Milhoan, who joined the committee after Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime anti-vaccine activist, fired all previous members in June.
"Our sanitation is different, our risk of disease is different. And so those all play into the evaluation of whether this is worthwhile, of taking a risk for a vaccine or not," he said.

How have you lived so long with your head up your ass? Before the vaccine polio crippled a lot of children.
