Vaccine skepticism

In 2009, Carrey wrote an article questioning the merits of vaccination for The Huffington Post.[149] With former partner Jenny McCarthy, Carrey led a “Green Our Vaccines” march in Washington, D.C., to advocate for the removal of “toxic substances” from children’s vaccines, out of a belief that children had received “too many vaccines, too soon, many of which are toxic”.[150] The rally was criticized by David Gorski, an American surgical oncologist on Science-Based Medicine blog, for being anti-vaccine and not “pro-safe vaccine”,[151] and by Steven Parker on the WebMD website for being “irresponsible”.[152]

On July 1, 2015, after the signing of a new vaccination law, Carrey called California Governor Jerry Brown a “corporate fascist” who was “poisoning” children by enacting the vaccination requirements.[153] The law disallowed religious and philosophical reasons for exemption from vaccination. Carrey was criticized for being “ignorant when it comes to vaccines” by Arthur Caplan, head of the Division of Medical Ethics at New York University,[154] and by Jeffrey Kluger, senior writer at Time, who described his anti-vaccination statements as “angry, dense and immune to reason”.[155]
