So, my an online american friend said"My mom didn't want to vaccine vax cuzs autism". Is he joking? I know many people say thing like that but i thought they all were joking?

In my country which is a third world country no one believe shit like that even my Grand mother who is illiterate and religious don't believe thing like that and knows the benefit of vaccine.

There's a few people who practice quackery and making bold claims bout magic being responsible for ills and pushing the "HOSPITALS ARE TRYING TO KILL YOU, SPIRIT SCIENCE SAID SO!" conspiracy nonsense, and still get covered by insurance.

Because they're technically chiropractors, which do not require an MD.

And many in America falsely write off ALL of chiropractory as bullshit because throwing out the baby with the bath water is easier than real research.

All chiropractors are frauds, full stop. The basis of the field is fraudulent and based on the feelings that feel the feeliest at the moment.

chiros are fuckin quacks. No way I'd ever go to one, or even recommend anyone else going to one.
