105. Fully vaccinated for years and tired of all the hyperbole about NOT vaccinating!!!!
Tue Feb 3, 2015, 06:06 PM
Feb 2015

People don't know a thing about them, yet they spout as if they do. The so called new leader? Out in AZ? A cardiologist by training, didn't believe the vaccination stories until he fell in love with his chiropractor wife. NOW, he believes!!!!!!!

Glad I don't have him as cardiologist
