Science says, "Don't take medical advice from a brain worm's former vehicle, especially a vehicle who literally said, people shouldn't take medical advice from me"

"Old man says cure for cancer in suppository corn cobs. More at eleven"

This man is out of his fucking mind.

Well, when one man's mind is another worm's dinner, then you probably shouldn't take that man's medical advice.

Fun fact: That was actually gonna be one of the original ten commandments, but they took it out reasoning that no one would ever be so catastrophically stupid as to do so.

Even before reading the article I'm gonna guess the answer is the "exact opposite".

[–] alaphic@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Ah, so you're familiar with this game!

Read the article, the answer turns out to be "We're pretty sure it helps and the vaccine is safe for pregnant women, so why not?"

Does it say they do need them? Just making an educated guess that the uneducated shill is wrong.

It says they are important in the two sentence blurb...

The shots are important for maternal and fetal health.

If they didn't, he probably wouldn't need to say anything. We'd all just agree that it wasn't necessary, because it is supported by medical science. He only seems like he's on the wrong side of every issue because literally everything he says out loud is intended to be a distraction. If he said something uncontroversial, it would be a waste of his precious time. You don't pay a shit stirrer to be reasonable.
