Jennifer Margulis exemplifies the "echo chamber" of the anti-vaccine community. When she says she "researched" this, it means she looked online for articles written to back her preconceived ideas. The hubris that she has is staggering. All she really cares about is her own, with no sense of others. Many vaccine such as the Rubella vaccine (part of the MMR) are not to protect the child, but to protect for the yet to born generations for massive birht defects if their mother comes down with Rubella during pregnancy.
