In this episode I discuss the highly problematic and autistophobic anti-medication lawsuits that we continue seeing and hearing about to this very day.

Serious concerns have been raised about anti-vaccination lawyer Sue Grey and the spread of disinformation, so where is the line between personal beliefs and professional conduct, or misconduct? Checkpoint is aware of several complaints to the law society about Sue Grey raising concerns about potential breaches of standards and the bringing the profession into disrepute. But more than a year on some have still not been resolved. This week Grey represented parents who were refusing to let their six-month-old son receive blood from Covid-19 vaccinated donors for life-saving surgery. University of Auckland law professor Mark Henaghan joins Lisa Owen with his analysis of the issue.

Paula Larsson (University of Oxford) comes on the new Infectious Historians episode to talk about her work on anti-vaccination movements. The conversation begins with an overview of vaccines before moving into vaccine hesitancy and anti-vaccination. Paula explores the similarities in anti-vaccination movements and their arguments over the past two centuries, while drawing parallels to famous recent cases such as the MMR vaccine and its false links to autism and the Covid vaccine. Near the end, Paula discusses her public engagement work, which she has pursued through multiple pathways.

A lack of local council candidates has given those with fringe views the opportunity to gain real political clout. Anti-vaccination group Voices For Freedom has urged supporters to stand but not to declare their affiliation, making them potential shoo-ins for uncontested positions. A number of candidates have been outed by the media as having conspiracy theorist links - but can voters really know what their wannabe-representatives stand for? Should the media be doing more? Journalist and educator Associate Professor Jim Tully spoke to Guyon Espiner.

The last few years have seen dramatic growth in the popularity of these extremist groups. How will they affect society in the future?In this episode, Jessica is joined by Doctors Ben Rich and Eva Bujalka, Co-directors of the Curtin Extremism Research Network (CERN). Together, they explain how these three different groups share some commonalities, as they are emblematic of growth in social media use, salad bar ideologies and red pill philosophy. They also address why it is problematic to brand people from these groups as “violent” when most are nonviolent and predict whether these groups are here to stay or if new extremist groups will take their place.CERN is a new research network based in Western Australia that is investigating extremism-related challenges in the developed world. Origins of the COVID anti-vax movement, incels (“involuntary celibates”) and QAnon [01:10]Unpacking the intersecting philosophical and ideological beliefs [05:14]Why current approaches to treating people from these groups may have backfired, and what we should be doing instead [09:01]Where these beliefs are heading and why they have salience [20:51]Discussing CERN's vision and what's next [27:56]Learn moreCurtin Extremism Research Network websiteCurtin Extremism Research Network Twitter profileRTRFM: Curtin Extremism Research Network seriesCurtin: New Curtin research network tackles growing issue of extremismCurtin: Combatting extremist violence in Australia: Curtin launches into actionConnect with our guestsDr Ben Rich is a senior lecturer in Curtin University's School of Media, Creative Arts and Social Inquiry (MCASI) and a Co-director of CERN, alongside Drs Eva Bujalka and Francis Russell.His research focuses on the rise of the Western Far Right, non-terrorist extremist ideologies in Australia and the West, and the role of ontological (state of being) insecurity in forming politically extreme views. Dr Rich's staff profileThe Future Of: Political Extremism, featuring Dr Ben Rich and Michael WieteskaThe Future Of: Geographical Borders, featuring Drs Ben Rich and Donna ButoracDr Eva Bujalka is an academic and creative writer who works within Curtin University's School of MCASI and is a Co-director of CERN.Her research focuses on incels, the growth of anti-feminist discourse and the ‘Manosphere' – a collective of online groups that wish to rebuild the patriarchy, improve men's capacity for self-improvement and solve today's masculinity ‘crisis'.Dr Bujalka's staff profileJoin Curtin UniversityThis podcast is brought to you by Curtin University.

E-mails reveal the Napier City Council bowed to pressure from anti-vaxxers, closing most of its main library earlier this year over complaints they couldn't use it. Instead the council set up a 'mini-library' so unvaccinated people could come in, even though many of its staff objected. Hawke's Bay reporter Tom Kitchin has been looking into this.

Today I'm going to talk about how the first anti-vaccination movement developed, what it did, how people viewed it and the impact it had!

Port Adelaide star Ollie Wines has revealed he was inundated with anti-vaccination messages on social media after he was sidelined with a heart issue a few weeks ago. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Naturopath Kelly Brown changes the whole tone of the Conscious Life Expo when he blows the whistle on COVID's actual origin story. While most speakers at the conference claim that COVID is overblown, or even nonexistent, Brown believes it is a government-sponsored bioweapon aimed at killing average people and making “the elite” immortal. Carrie tells Ross about Brown's decidedly fearful talk, and about the various belief sets that seem to be influencing and underpinning his theories.For pics and videos, follow us on Facebook!

A Whangarei nurse is so fed-up with anti-vaccination billboards in Northland, she donned a disguise earlier this month and spray painted over misinformation. The nurse, who RNZ has agreed not to name, is increasingly worried about the number of patients she's seeing who are still unvaccinated for Covid-19. Te Tai Tokerau only just reached the 90 percent first doses target last week. The nurse has noticed growing number of anti-vax signs outside properties and told RNZ reporter Sam Olley she's had enough. The nurse says the protests at Parliament highlight why anti-vax billboards should be ousted. The police are not backing the nurse's actions saying it could inflame the situation, and the person doing the spraypainting could also be liable for the damage they've done.

Protestors are still on Parliament's front lawn, but they have some support outside the Capital. Another protest has set up camp in at Picton's Nelson Square across the Cook Strait. Marlborough District Mayor John Leggett spoke to Susie Ferguson.

Convoys protesting against Covid-19 mandates are expected to cause traffic disruption this morning when they converge on Wellington from the North and South.  Two convoys made up of hundreds of trucks, cars and other vehicles, have been travelling the length of the country since Sunday.  The South Island convoy arrived in Picton yesterday, although it is unclear how many will be able to travel to Wellington, as a vaccine pass or negative Covid-19 test are needed to board the ferry. RNZ reporter Hamish Cardwell spoke to Susie Ferguson.

At stake was government MP George Christensen's lucrative position on a joint parliamentary committee after his latest promotion of anti-vaccination views.

How do diseases and information spread?

When Daiva and Eva were starting their investigation into activism against measles vaccination, another team of journalists also set off to explore this movement in other parts of Europe. Anna Nordbeck and Malin Olofsson started investigating the Scandinavian anti-vaccination movement in 2019, and this led the team all the way to the US, where influential leaders of the movement create movies, tour the country, and teach similar movements abroad about pulling parents in and drawing them into the world of conspiracies. The Inoculation's team called Malin Olofsson to hear more about the Swedish team's findings. The Vaccinkrigarna documentary is available from SVT in Swedish.  Our reporting is supported by IJ4EU.

Mining magnate Clive Palmer is giving voice to fears about COVID-19 vaccine safety as he promotes candidates around the country ahead of the next federal election. We put some of his claims to experts and they weren't impressed.

The resumption of Federal Parliament has been overshadowed by so-called "freedom rallies" across the country, which have threatened the Government's legislative agenda in the Senate and raised the tempo ahead of the coming election. Minister for Finance, Simon Birmingham says his party condemns acts of violence, despite the Prime Minister expressing sympathy for those who were demonstrating.

Labor has been pouncing on the Prime Minister's refusal to condemn unequivocally the threats of violence by anti-vaccination protestors. The Opposition leader says Scott Morrison has passed up the opportunity to show national leadership, by failing to call out violent and extreme comments, which have been levelled against some politicians.

Bộ trưởng Cảnh sát Queensland Mark Ryan cho biết "gần như tất cả" cảnh sát của tiểu bang này đã tiêm chủng vắc-xin liều đầu tiên, nhưng còn 92 sĩ quan cảnh sát trong số hơn 12.000 nhân viên cảnh vụ đã bị đình chỉ vì các vấn đề liên quan đến vắc-xin.

Hone Harawira needs no introduction as a protester - he's been at it longer than many people have been alive. Even his harshest critic would probably concede he knows how to make it work. So, how does one of the country's most recognisable protesters rate those who gathered in recent days in places around the country to stage their own protests against vaccinations and Covid-19 restrictions? He spoke to Corin Dann.

What is it with people wanting to stay anonymous when talking about the real shit? Well, to be honest, I do get it with this interview. We hit some important and triggering subjects. I speak to Medical Scientist and Biologist "Jay" about the rigmarole of life (in its current format). We talk politics, pandemics, potential futures, possible dragon sightings, and the power behind earth's (Yara's) crystals, and energy lines. We get a deeper sense of what the earth is actually trying to tell us.

أرقام تعطي مؤشرًا علميًا حول مدى فاعلية اللقاح في تقليل تفشي الوباء في ظل تأخير منح الحريات الكاملة لغير الملقحين حتى 15 كانون الأول/ ديسمبر.

Dagelijks horen we de premiers van de diverse staten vertellen dat het belangrijk is om je te laten vaccineren tegen het coronavirus. Niet alleen ter bescherming van jezelf, maar ook voor het welzijn je familieleden, vrienden en andere mensen in de Australische gemeenschap. Ook bij SBS Dutch komt het regelmatig ter sprake, bijvoorbeeld als we politieke zaken bespreken met Nicolien van Vroonhoven. Ook hebben al meerdere keren gesproken met de Nederlandse huisarts Richard van Hak, onder andere over de veiligheid van de beschikbare vaccins. Nu hoort u een ander geluid. De Nederlandse 'Josefien'* werkt al enkele jaren met veel plezier in een groot Australisch ziekenhuis, alweer ze bloedafneemt bij patienten. Maar doordat haar werkgever al haar werknemers verplicht om zich te laten vaccineren tegen COVID-19, dreigt ze haar baan kwijt te raken. 'Josefien' wil namelijk niet gevaccineerd worden en ze legt uit waarom zij tot deze beslissing is gekomen.

Is it true that mandating vaccination is a breach on one's basic Human Right? - தடுப்பூசி போட மறுப்பது ஒருவரின் தனி மனித உரிமை என்று தடுப்பூசி போட மறுப்பவர்கள் கூறுவதில் எவ்வளவு உண்மை இருக்கிறது என்று Macquarie பல்கலைக்கழகத்தில் உளவியல் மற்றும் சட்டத் துறையில் பட்டம் பெறவிருக்கும் நவின் ரவி அவர்களுடன் அலசுகிறார் குலசேகரம் சஞ்சயன்.

This week, we are joined by Travis Chi Wing Lau, an assistant professor of English at Kenyon College. Travis is currently working on a book titled "Insecure Immunity: Inoculation and the Anti-Vaccination, 1722-1898," which explores the British cultural history of immunity and vaccination in the 18th and 19th centuries. We talked to him about researching, writing, and teaching during the pandemic and about how he understands the impulse towards the "COVID hot take."

After a wave of protests against vaccines and vaccine mandates in Europe, it is clear that despite very different policies across Europe, anti-vaccination movements that oppose them are remarkably alike. These movements are tightly linked, even though some of their connections are hidden. They amplify one another, and they have  elaborate ways to support their activities financially - from selling books on Amazon to offering legal services to anyone who feels they have been harmed by vaccination. We had discussed this with disinformation researcher Dr Aliaksandr Herasimenka, so we thought we will come back to this interview and highlight his insights that explain the mobilisation around vaccines these days. A researcher at the Computational Propaganda Project of the Oxford Internet Institute, Herasimenka is a co-author of a paper on misinformation distribution on Telegram. The interview was edited for brevity and clarity. You can read the Alliance for Securing Democracy's research on China's propaganda and search engines here. We ran such a search ourselves, and the clips in the beginning of the episode are from the results we got.

What is the history of anti-vaccination beliefs in the United States, and how has vaccine skepticism affected the way we fight disease? Professor Sue Lederer and Professor Judy Houck trace the long history of vaccine hesitancy and resistance in the United States, demonstrating that as long as we've had vaccinations, we've had vaccination skeptics and refusers. They discuss how the vaccine hesitancy movement has always been diverse and heterogeneous, and how compulsory vaccinations have long raised issues concerning the state's authority over individuals' bodies.

Are 'vaccine hesitancy', 'vaccine skepticism' and 'anti-vaccination sentiment' synonyms? Do people who say they doubt vaccine safety always refuse vaccines? In this episode Eva and Daiva discuss the challenges researchers face when trying to estimate the size of the anti-vaccination movement and the number of its sympathizers.

0:08 – How long will it take to develop a Covid-19 vaccine, and what can the public expect from the human vaccine trials underway right now? Art Reingold is the Division Head of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the UC Berkeley School of Public Health. 0:34 – There has been an explosion of Covid-19 cases in U.S. meatpacking plants among workers. Tyson, JBS and Smithfield workers have died from the virus. Investigative reporter Leah Douglas (@leahjdouglas) of the nonprofit investigative news outlet Food and Environment Reporting Network has been tracking the spread of Covid-19 in the food system, and says it is likely being massively undercounted, in part because of the reticence of meat companies to disclose the extent of the sickness. Read Douglas's reporting here. 1:08 – A recent study of misinformation in Nature mapped the online spread of pro- and anti-vaccination views. It suggested anti-vaccination social media posters are more successful at posting their content where “undecided” viewers will see it, even though anti-vaccination advocates are a smaller portion of users. We talk with Neil Johnson, professor of physics at George Washington University and lead author of the study.  1:18 – What's the crossover between anti-vaccination and anti-lockdown views at recent protests at state houses across the U.S.? We speak with Devin Burghart (@dburghart), executive director of the Institute for Research & Education on Human Rights, based in Seattle, which examines racist, anti-Semitic, and far right social movements.  1:34 – An appeals court has paved the way for a massive, polluting coal export terminal at the Port of Oakland.

Episode 6 is here! The growing anti-vaccination movement is building momentum by the minute, and regrettably, their primitive beliefs can and have produced real, substantive harm to the rest of the population! As confirmed by the recent slew of long-dormant disease outbreaks, such as the measles in the US, more and more parents are arming themselves with pseudoscience, and disregarding nearly 50 years of medical science, microbiology and epidemiological studies in an effort to combat the potentially harmful side effects "associated" with vaccines. These vexed anti-vaxxers are taking their fight to the frontlines of Facebook and Instagram to recruit even more thickheaded soldiers to advance all of us further into oblivion! To make this matter even more complex, the vegan community is irresponsibly jumping on this dangerous bandwagon because commercial vaccinations do in fact contain several animal-based products. While this is absolutely true, we do need to consider that not suppressing dangerous pathogens through modern medicine can have pandemic like consequences and directly supports reintroducing diseases from the dark ages back into contemporary times. Regrettably, in order to contend this anti-vaxxer drive, forward-thinking vegans, and non-vegans alike, may have to momentarily set aside their dietary agendas and support vaccine use because right here and right now, it is the only reasonable choice we have as a civilization bursting at the seams in population. Agendas aside, we must do what is best for civilization. BUT FEAR NOT plant eaters, plant-based vaccines are now being created and even administered in other parts of the world. The solution is coming. In the case of vaccinations, the one thing that seems to be contagious is the misleading information that is spread by anti-vaccine movements. This has caused such an immense problem that the WHO has called the anti-vaccine movement a major threat to public health Join the mettlesome trio as they examine the current science surrounding vaccinations and investigate the myth surround complications associated with receiving vaccines. Join Dan, Brian, and Mike as they peek behind this curtain of secrecy to arm listeners with more information to live a disease free life. The RIOT grows! Support the RIOT! Eat, Train and Live Intentionally!

The elephant in the room... We look at the horrific hate crime in New Zealand. This was a heinous act. But the reaction of the regressive left won't leave it alone, and we look at some of the reactions indicative of what Gad Saad has called "collective munchausen syndrome". Catholic Watch The state of West Virginia is suing a diocese, charging they knowingly employed pedophile priests. Alain de la Morandais demonstrates his pedophilic propensities and child molestation apologetics on a French television program. Pope Francis says corruption is a devastating cancer harming society. He should know, as head of the world's largest organization of corruption. A poll taken in the US suggests more than an third of Catholics are questioning their membership. What the hell does the Church have to do before they finally leave? Quack Tracts... The Calgary Health Region has set up a "vaccine hesitancy clinic" whose goal is to convince parents on the fence to get their children vaccinated. In the face of a recent measles warning, at least one clinic in Calgary has asked that parents not bring their unvaccinated children. A father of three young boys with a rare genetic disorder which compromises their immune systems makes an appeal to Albertans to vaccinate. Meanwhile, physicians are urging Health Canada to take action against the sale of homeopathic vaccine "alternatives". Eye on Islam... A human rights lawyer in Iran has been sentenced to 33 years in prison and 148 lashes. Nasrin Sotoudeh is well known for defending women who dared to show their hair in public. Her crime? "Gathering and colluding to commit crimes against national security" and "insulting the Supreme Leader".

Measles outbreaks are devastating countries across the globe, linked to a massive drop in vaccination rates. The World Health Organisation has raised the alarm and ranked ‘vaccine hesitancy' as one of the top 10 threats to public health everywhere. Washington state has experienced a measles outbreak in the past month. And South Africa is not immune to this. Dr Yogan Pillay, deputy director general at the Department of Health, said that 85 percent of children in South Africa are fully immunised by the age of one year – but the most recent data from the country's Medical Research Council suggests this figure is closer to 70 percent. There are a number of factors that contribute to this with access to rural areas being one, where parents find it difficult to get to clinics and medical practitioners also finding it hard to reach many in the rural areas. Another factor is, of course, the anti-vaccination drives being fuelled by misinformation and bogus studies that have been debunked at proven to be false. But does religious doctrine and sentiments play a role in the anti-vaccination communities? #Vaccination #Measles Religion

Ten states have reported cases in 2019 alone.
