"Vaccine" Correction/Clarification
On page 253 of my book, there is an error pertaining to Barbara Loe Fisher, a
vaccine skeptic and vaccine safety advocate. I stated in my book that her son
had a reaction to his third DPT shot, when in fact it was his fourth shot, when
he was two and a half years old. In addition, the book inadequately described
the symptoms Fisher witnessed her son experience after his fourth DPT shot:
A more complete, substitute description follows:
In 1980, on the afternoon of his fourth DTP shot, as Fisher has recounted in
many interviews and speeches since then, she walked into Chris's room to find
her two and a half year old son sitting in a chair, staring, and then watched
his eyes roll back in his head and his head fall to his shoulder. She could not
wake him and picked him up and carried him to his bed, where he remained
unconscious for the better part of the next 18 hours. The symptoms she described
were typical of a convulsion and collapse/shock occasionally reported after DTP
vaccination, which studies indicate rarely have long-term repercussions. Chris
was eventually diagnosed with minimal brain damage, including multiple learning
disabilities and attention deficit disorder.
Additionally, the book states that Fisher
advocated that a clinical trial be conducted in which the health of 10,000
vaccinated children and 10,000 unvaccinated children would be compared. In fact,
Fisher never gave a specific number of how many children should be included in
such a trial. The 10,000 number came from a 19th century vaccine opponent who
proposed a similar study. To read more details of Fisher's disagreement with
what I said about her in my book, click
