SPECIALS: DEBUNKING PSEUDO-BIOMEDICAL NONSENSE

An example of such nonsense would be Anti-Vaccination movement of any kind. So, what are they?

The anti-vaccination movement (or the anti-vaxx movement) is a loosely organized conspiracy theorist and Luddite subculture that blames the medical practice of vaccination for a wide range of health problems. Ironically, its advocates have been directly responsible for the return of health disasters by reinvigorating diseases that had almost been eradicated by said vaccines. The movement, led mainly by people with no medical or scientific qualifications (or tellingly stripped of credentials for malpractice and fraud), bases its claims mostly on spurious alleged short-term and long-term side effects of vaccinations — effects that are (to boot) often trivial compared to the severity of what were once common illnesses. … It is an unfortunate but sad truth that uninformed parents will very often click on shiny, flashy, “attention-grabbing” blog posts like this(redirect) as opposed to “boring”, “unexciting” peer-reviewed research articles such as this.(redirect)

Deutsche Übersetzung/German Translation:
Die Impfgegner-Bewegung (oder auch Anti-Impf-Bewegung) ist eine lose organisierte Verschwörungstheoristen- und Ludditen-Subkultur, die die medizinische Praxis der Impfung für eine Vielzahl von Gesundheitsproblemen verantwortlich macht. Ironischerweise sind ihre Vertreter selbst direkt dafür verantwortlich, dass Krankheiten, die durch Impfungen fast ausgerottet waren, erneut auftreten. Die Bewegung, die hauptsächlich von Menschen ohne medizinische oder wissenschaftliche Qualifikationen geführt wird (oder entlarvenderweise für Fehlverhalten und Betrug ihre Zulassungen verloren haben), stützt ihre Ansprüche hauptsächlich auf haltlose angebliche kurz- und langfristige Nebenwirkungen von Impfungen – Nebenwirkungen, die im Vergleich zur Schwere einst häufiger Krankheiten oft belanglos sind. … Leider ist es eine traurige Tatsache, dass uninformierte Eltern oft auf glänzende, aufmerksamkeitsstarke Blogbeiträge wie diesen(Umleitung) klicken, anstatt “langweilige”, “unspannende” Forschungsartikel in Fachzeitschriften wie diesen(Umleitung) zu lesen.
