Isn't it fascinating that the pro-health, pro-science, pro-transparency, pro-informed medical consent movement - which is rapidly growing around the world - use science based evidence and rational, logical arguments while welcoming an open and transparent public debate on this vital health issue. In stark contrast, the pro-mandatory vaccination, pro-censorship, anti-informed consent, anti-freedom of speech and anti-debate ideologues instead use dogma, ideology, emotive and irrational straw man arguments, appeals to authority, ad hom attacks and refuse to engage in an open public debate of this all important health matter (including government, politicians, health authorities, medical regulators their members, universities and associations and even the media).
Thankfully, Hot Copper has not joined the ever growing list of mainstream media outlets, and social media platforms, which censor and ban information that the public deserve to be aware of, while only reporting biased one-sided information, all while attacking those who dare to question the dogmatic ideology of vaccination - with science, ethics and logic!

Science is the pursuit of the truth, not consensus. Consensus is a political concept, not a scientific one.
