In for my regular rheumatology checkin. Since my autoimmune disorder is pretty intense I go to a University of Washington specialist. Just heard from my doctor that faculty in this office were part of the recently fired CDC vaccine team so they’re “worried” about vaccines for the fall. Excellent.

And again, they were about 15-20 times as large as the April 2009 Tea Party protests, so I'll sit back and wait for 15-20 times as many stories from political pundits explaining that this was a decisive rebuke to the sitting president that Changes Everything.

I have seen multiple posts going around about this, but no actual evidence at this point. If there are actual confirmations, please point me to them, but until then please remember that fear spreads easily.
