Thanks for this. I've added it to the list of pro-vaccination source on my
research page, and I'll have a watch soon. It can also be watched in full on
YouTube and downloaded directly from the homepage:

I've also noted Gorski's blog post shared by Root Vegetable. When I get some
time, I'll go through them both, read the abstracts of any peer-reviewed
papers or other credible source documents they refer to, and add links to
these to the appropriate claims and counterclaims in my table.
BTW I'm only giving the pro and anti *claims* equal weight, because a
sceptical approach treats all claims are equal. What is not equal is the
scientific evidence for or against such claims, but this cannot be
established by just believing and repeating the propaganda of one side of the
other. In the case of climate change, for example, it's easy to see by
reading the abstracts of the papers cited by both sides of the debate, that
the vast weight of the evidence is in favour of anthropogenic climate change.
This does not appear to be the case with every other controversial issue.
