Celeb Vaccine1 Wars: Peet Beats Maher
Comedian2 Bill Maher advises against vaccinations3. But actress Amanda Peet--and Dr. Bill Frist--have it right: vaccines4 are good. Steve Mirsky comments

In the celebrity5 vaccine wars, I’m siding with actress Amanda Peet. And comedian Bill Maher, well, I like your show, but when it comes to vaccines you don’t know a punchline6 from a clothesline.

Maher recently tweeted to his Twitter followers7 “if u get a swine flu shot ur an idiot.” On his HBO program Real Time last week, Maher went head-to-head with former Senator Dr. Bill Frist, who patiently explained why vaccines were in fact good. But Maher wasn’t buying it. He advocates a healthy lifestyle over vaccines. But polio and smallpox8 outmatched many robust9 immune systems.

Actress Amanda Peet, meanwhile, has used her celebrity to encourage vaccinations, specifically in response to the alleged10 vaccine-autism connection, for which there’s no scientific evidence, but which has some parents afraid of childhood vaccinations. In a letter to a parenting magazine, Peet wrote: “It’s irresponsible to suggest that virtually the entire medical community, and the CDC, and the American Academy of Pediatrics are behind a massive cover-up about vaccine safety.” See you in the line for the flu shot.
