Today we will be talking to Brian Deer, journalist, writer, and author of the new book, "The Doctor who fooled the world" about the infamous Dr. Andrew Wakefield. Dr. Wakefield has made quite the name for himself, as he is the source for the infamous claim that vaccines are somehow related to autism. Of course, there is no evidence that this is true, and a plethora of evidence to the contrary, yet Dr. Wakefield maintains his untenable position? Why? Well, Brian is here to shed some light on that for us.

Lydia G, author of the online article, "Twelve Years Ago I Stopped Vaccinating My Children: Then I Changed My Mind," was very skeptical about vaccines for a long time. It was relatively recently she had a change of heart, and she graciously agreed to come on and share her story. It's quite the lively discussion.

Today you will be hearing from Jason Wright and Abraham Alahmad. Jason was formerly against vaccines, however he came around to understanding more about them when he took it upon himself to do some unbiased and independent research on the subject. Abraham is a published scientist who is an expert on the blood-brain barrier, who will explain why vaccines can't cross this protective membrane and how it works to protect the most important organ in our body from anything that a vaccine could ever affect it with.

Today we are going to to take a multi-faceted approach to discussing vaccines. First, you'll hear a very powerful story from a former antivaccine single mother, Steph Mary, whose child got pertussis since she never got her them vaccinated. It is a powerful story, as well as somewhat intense (fair warning, there are a few f-bombs) but it's real, authentic and from the heart.

After hearing Steph's experiences in leaving the antivaccine movement, we will hear from a biochemistry student Edward Nirenberg. Edward is a recent graduate from Cornell who studied macrophages in an immunology lab while working on a degree in biological sciences. We discuss adjuvants, antigens, preventable diseases and more in a thorough investigation into the evidence and data, as well as an attempt at understanding the core of antivaccination attitudes.
