But, you know, when you live in a great state like Texas, They tend to defer to what the parents think is right, at least in this regard, around a COVID vaccine.

I think there are a number of vaccines where the risk of not vaccinating them is so much worse than the risk of vaccinating them. The one in particular that I have looked into more than all others combined is indeed MMR. Because I think every parent who has been, and I say this word deliberately,

misled by the fraud that came out of a guy by the name of Andrew Wakefield will always have in the back of their mind the lingering concern about autism. So Andrew Wakefield was a guy who has been more than discredited. So I say this again with complete

he has been more than discredited for what he did to completely and deliberately and fraudulently manipulate data to make a case that the MMR vaccine caused COVID. You mean autism? I'm sorry, caused autism. I've done a complete podcast on this, so if people are interested, I interviewed the journalist who's done great work on this, and we kind of go through all the work. His name is Brian Deer.

Not a pro-vaccine guy, by the way. Doesn't care about vaccines one bit, despite the fact that people have tried to make him the face of MMR. He's like, nope, I just care about science. And this guy was the worst example of bad science. So I can tell you with a very high degree of confidence without wasting the next three hours, why the MMR vaccine is safe.

I was just going to say, now let's talk about an area that I would put in the middle, because right there I'm saying on the one hand, again, I didn't think the COVID vaccine made sense for young, healthy kids. I really do think the MMR vaccine absolutely makes sense for all kids.
