So, there’s [this episode](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro1WL5ketWg) from 60 Minutes where they treat it as an established fact that this former cheerleader became a quadriplegic from a flu vaccine. I’m quite sure I have seen articles refuting this entire news story, but I cannot find them. Can anyone help me prove to, yes, you guessed it, someone spreading anti-vaccine propaganda that this is more horseshit from the pro-disease league? Many thanks in advance.
