Amazon helps fund anti-vaccination groups through charity program
Amazon is under fire again for helping spread anti-vaccine conspiracies.
Four major anti-vaccination groups — National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), Age of Autism, Learn the Risk, and Physicians for Informed Consent — are raising money through the Amazon’s charity fundraising program, AmazonSmile, according to a report by The Guardian.
Other anti-vaccine organizations such as American Citizens for Health Choice (ACHC), A Voice for Choice, Informed Consent Action Network, and the National Health Freedom Coalition are also included in the program.
Through AmazonSmile, customers can choose to donate 0.5 percent of their purchase price to a charitable group of their choice when shopping with Amazon. The fundraising initiative has donated more than $100 million to organizations such as St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, Doctors Without Borders, and the ASPCA since it launched in 2013. Read more...
