Adverse court ruling could doom vaccines

[Guest guest]

From the look of it, Sally Pipes and the Pacific Research Institute

are very right wing, conservative and powerful. A letter to her

explaining why this issue should be carefully examined and why these

lawsuits cannot possibly be considered frivolous would be very

helpful. Her email address is spipes@... and if you

have a personal story to relate about a child (or yourself) who is

affected by vaccines, please share. Getting an organisation like this

to actually look at this issue would be a wonderful coup.

All the best,

Meryl
