I really do hope that news outlets who report on the recent #ACIP recommendations understand that these decisions have nothing to do with HepB per se, and everything to do with sowing bigger doubts about vaccines - all vaccines - in general.
Don’t lose sight of what the bigger agenda is.

Going to football in the 1980s was routinely terrifying inside and outside the stadium. Violence and racism were absolutely endemic in Brum and across the country. What's changed since then is that it's got so much safer. Jenrick is a liar. No-one who knew a thing about it would say what he said.
