Marianne Williamson dodges questions on vaccine safety at Las Vegas forum via HuffPost
Self-help author Marianne Williamson attempted to dodge questions on vaccine safety at Saturday’s AFSCME Democratic presidential forum, declaring her support for childhood vaccinations while appearing eager to appeal to opponents.
When HuffPost’s Amanda Terkel asked whether Williamson was comparing vaccines to the opioid crisis, Williamson continued criticizing “Big Pharma,” which she said she would subject to “legitimate and responsible oversight” by the federal government. “I’m fine with that,” she said. “And when I’m president, we will have far more independent research having to do with the amount of vaccines, having to do with bundling, and none of that will be paid by Big Pharma.”
Williamson’s dubious take on vaccines goes back at least to 2015, when she appeared on Bill Maher’s HBO talk show and said, “There’s a skepticism which is actually healthy on this issue of vaccinations.” Williamson also drew criticism earlier this year for calling mandatory vaccinations “draconian” and “Orwellian” amid the worst measles outbreak the country has seen in decades.
