Jim Carrey :
What happened after 1989? It’s twice as many vaccines as anywhere else in 30 countries in the Western world. We give twice as many vaccine shots as any of those countries. Why is that?
Larry King:
If it’s vaccination and you’re not against vaccines, what are you against? Don’t vaccinate for this, but vaccinate for that?
Jim Carrey:
Yes. I think we have to choose which ones are absolutely necessary.
Jenny McCarthy:
You should educate yourself. We want to empower parents to educate themselves. Do we need to have the chickenpox? Do we need the hepatitis B shot on the second day of life?
Jim Carrey:
I don’t think we can afford to assume that the people who are charged with our public health any longer have our best interests at heart all the time. Parents have to make their own decisions.
Larry King:
Why would a doctor not want to know more about something that could save a life or prevent a disease? I don’t understand.
Jim Carrey:
The AAP is financed by the drug companies. Medical schools are financed by the drug companies. This is a huge business. Vaccines are the largest growing division of the pharmaceutical industry. $13 billion.
Jenny McCarthy:
They control medical schools.
Jim Carrey:
What we’re asking is for them to take a loss for the good of our children. That’s a tough sell in a boardroom.
