Ever want an overview of the antivaccination movement? Here you go. Dr. David Gorski lays it all out, from Jenny McCarthy’s grandstanding to Andrew Wakefield…well, apparently just making stuff up, to the Special Masters judgements (the special Vaccination Compensation courts set up by the US to determine compensations for claims against vaccines and their manufacturers) from last month. It. Is. Awesome.

Many, many thanks to the Bad Astronomer, Phil Plait, for the link – as well as for all the work that he’s done to promote vaccinating children.
