Paul Offit on measles outbreaks

Doctor and vaccine-defender Paul Offit has a very well-done article on Huffington Post about the recent measles outbreaks due to the antivax movements scare tactics. Offit has researched this whole thing very extensively, and wrote a book called Autism’s False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure. He was recently interviewed on Skeptics Guide to the Universe, and is a clear and rational voice for truth. I strongly urge people to read what he wrote.
