As this is a favourite SMDB pasttime, I thought I’d ask for suggestions for articles about the American anti-vax movement and anti-fluoride movement here. Also, we have our own Doper experts! (I’d read their whole book in class, but it might be too long…)
One of my students is moving to the US, and is taking English lessons in preparation. We cover aspects of everyday life every lesson. This week we’re doing health, and I thought it would be interesting to read about the American anti-vax movement so she’s prepared. She’s a dentist herself, so I think she would be interested to hear about fluoride fears as well.
I’m not so much looking for myth-busting articles, as articles giving an overview, and interesting journalism. Ease or difficulty isn’t an issue.
So please share your favourite articles about the anti-vax movement. It’s something I enjoy reading about anyway, so I think it’ll be fun to share good articles!
