Among other things, there was the teeny tiny problem of the complete inability to ever be able to prove in a court of law that the baby actually caught the measles from that particular kid...which was sort of overlooked. BUT I think mothers who don't vaccinate their kids should indeed be thown in jail. Stupid, selfish, parasitic bitches. I rather enjoyed that fantasy. Oh yeah, and the forensics guy? Would it have been possible to fire him on the spot...or at least tape his mouth shut? Last Edited By: superguppie 04/28/09 11:39 PM. Edited 2 times.

Didn't like the episode either. The forensics guy was played by Noel Fisher, hated the character but I really liked him in The Riches.

Again, they could have done a vaccination episode alone if they'd done it differently that would have made it not so absurd. Like if the lady had a chicken pox party at her house or a measles party where the parents intentionally infected their kids so they could have natural immunity. Hell, the private practice episode on Measles was excellent.

Seems to me if your own damned kid had been vaccinated in the first place, then it wouldn't have been a problem to be exposed to the kid in the park. Stupid sue-happy society...the blame should have been placed squarely on the fact that she herself had not vaccinated the child. She took a risk (calculated or not) by not getting her vaccinated, and it failed.

Either way, unless she knew that her kid had the measles and knowingly infected the other kids she's not at fault. Just as someone who unknowingly infects their partner with an STD (even though they knew that thy could be at risk because they'd had unprotected sex before and hadn't been tested). The "you should have known better" argument when it comes to illnesses is a major slippery slope.

Big X to the forensics guy. I thought long and hard about not vaccinating my children. The connections to Autism are a little scary if you read up on it but in the end I caved to social convention.

I have no idea why the Christian right, for example, has adopted this bullshit as their pet cause. How do you blame Mom A for infecting your child with the measles?? Seems to me if your own damned kid had been vaccinated in the first place, then it wouldn't have been a problem to be exposed to the kid in the park. In addition to what meatball wrote, vaccination fails in a certain proportion of the population. This is why it's essential to get everyone vaccinated. It reduces the odds of exposure to disease for someone whose vaccine didn't 'work'. This is called herd immunity and the US needs to get back to it. One example: my son got chicken pox even though he was vaccinated, and a bad case, too. The CP vaccine is nowhere near as good as was originally hypothesized. Though I will say that this is one vaccination I don't feel as strongly about as, say, MMR.

Comic relief is Munch's job anyways, and he clearly gets underutilized with each passing season. I already knew religious people hate and fear everything, but vaccination is a new one to me. I didn't know it was yet another tool from the devil. Last Edited By: WylDawg 04/30/09 2:11 PM. Edited 1 times.

Though I will say that this is one vaccination I don't feel as strongly about as, say, MMR. For some reason neither of my kids ever got chicken pox, no matter how many times they were exposed to it. There was no vaccine for it until they were much older. So before they got the vaccine they had to be tested to see if they were immune or ever had a mild case. I don't believe that any of these vaccines have anything to do with autism. I think people are labeling every kid with a learning disability, slow learner or any problem for that matter as autism and I don't think they should be thrown together in a lump sum.

And it's fairly obvious that there is a genetic component because autism runs in families. The guy with the original study manipulated the results so they would fit his hypothesis. So not only did all the other studys show no proof between a connection with the MMR but the original study had made up information. The MMR and the pertussus are the most important, pertussus more than anything else.

I never saw so much drama over water bottles. TERRIBLE episode. That annoying forensics guy should die a horrible death. I thought he was going to end up as the "guy with relationship with Casey".

The US has been fortifying its food supply with folate since 1998, roughly the same time that the rise in autism occurred (though whether or not the increase in autism is real is still debatable for the reasons you guys listed above). There is a gene called MTHFR that is related to folate metabolism. Used to be that if an embryo had a certain MTHFR genotype, the odds of the embryo surviving were extremely low. Now that the food supply is fortified, even embryos with even the "bad" MTHFR enzyme survive, which is natural selection in action, but they also require a very high folate intake throughout life for optimal functioning. If they don't get enough folate, then it's possible they could experience neurological problems...hence the rise in autism. That covers both the genetic and the environmental contributions. Should I call CNN and get them off this swine flu thing? Last Edited By: superguppie 04/29/09 3:45 PM. Edited 1 times.

Highlights below. • Peacock co-chairman Ben Silverman confirmed that Life will not go on. • As previously reported, the fates of Medium, My Name is Earl, Chuck, and Law & Order will be decided by May 19. • If Chuck is renewed, it probably won't be returning to Mondays. Silverman said Heroes would be paired with "a new show" on the night (my guess: Parenthood or Day One.) • NBC is prepared to move forward with Law & Order: SVU with or without Chris Meloni and Mariska Hargitay. "There's an offer on the table," said co-chair Marc Graboff cryptically. • Special guests included Amy Poehler (wearing a swine flu mask) and Donald Trump (wearing his soggy raincoat). • Light refreshments were served. And enjoyed.
