    Huh that’s interesting… do you have examples of the Japanese media doing that? I’ve never heard that before.

      Thanks for asking. The problem is so severe there’s a scholarly article on that:

        Oh wow… it’s really upsetting that a vaccine that can literally cure cancer is cast in such a light.

        Thanks for sharing!
