I don't vaccinate my child and she has been super-healthy! Is Dr. Snyderman ready to concede that vaccines are not for everyone and, depending on circumstance, moms might be better off deciding against them? Of course not! And YES, Hanna, breastmilk IS like medicine. Why does she think women accept donations of it for their preemies?

Too bad the Today Show and Rosin didn't mention that!
