A book that deals with hidden or unacknowledged topics are bound to be somewhat speculative. This means that the strength of your argument rests on how well reasoned your circumstantial evidence is presented. So comparing bodily injury in a car crash between wearing a seatbelt or not, is something you could make a strong case for. The comparison between a big breakfast or not eating you could not. Now you could argue a big insulin spike would make your bloodsugar crash, making you tiered and less alert and chances are people that have a big breakfast are in worse physical shape and therefore less able to act resolutely under extreme pressure thus you might get more severely injured etc etc. But its a real stretch to say the least. These are the kind of arguments Scheibner relies on, often to the absurdly surreal.

When you write a book on the risks of unacknowledged side effects of vaccines, naturally you you have to address the topic of "NaTzis"...? Scheibners strongest argument seem to be, if you are pro-vax you are a NaTzi. Why you might ask? With arguments such as NaTzis experimented on camp inmates according to the victors show trial and giving children vaccines that I think are responsible for all the worlds ills are the same thing, and Australia used the picture of an Asian kids hand to illustrate jaundice, which brings the yellow star Jews had to wear in the NaTzi terror regime to mind. (Seriously! Not kidding) When you engage in Reductio ad Hitlerum you have already lost the argument and you are exposing yourself as noting but a smear merchant. Scheibner on the other hand is more of a smear space kadett.

Now, I do think vaccines are irresponsibly used and uncritically promoted at times, especially the preservatives that are added just to make money for the companies, but none of this is covered in any meaningful way. Instead the book is filled with nonsensical information, absurd reasoning and unestablished leaps of faith. Could be the worst argued book I have ever read which is quite the accomplishment in and of itself.
