Hi. My name's Rebecca, although most people know me as Becky.I'm guessing most of you will have come across an organisation called "JABS" - "Justice Awareness and Basic Support" (they didn't have the decency to put a comma in there...)It claims to support the parents of "vaccine damaged" children. I joined the forum, interested to see if there was any good evidence of harm caused by vaccines. (Short answer - no.)What I actually found was a single issue pressure group, dedicated to stamping out vaccination in all forms, and a forum populated by utter nutters. The worst kind of shit-for-brains internet mentalist. I mean, real "heads down no-nonsense mindless WOOOOOO!!!!" idiots.The scary thing is, the BBC links to the site whenever there's a story in the news about the "MMR Controversy". Parents who may still be worried could be looking at this stuff, and putting their children at far greater risk by following the advice in the forum.So the original purpose of this blog was to show quite how batshit bonkers the JABS forum is, by posting an (almost) daily quote from one of its regular contributors. However, now that JABS is moderated, it appears that some of the more insane (and hence bloggable) stuff doesn't get past the moderator, I'll also be turning my eye towards other sources of evil bastardry - mainly Age of Autism and The Australian Vaccination Network (AVN).
