Monthly Free Forum at the Library: The Truth about Vaccines!

Join us for our monthly forum at the Plainview-Old Bethpage Public Library, 999 Old Country Road, Plainview, NY, on Friday, November 6th, 7 pm, for a timely discussion!

Guest speaker & Topic: Chic Schissel, who will give a PowerPoint presentation on "Dubious Causes: Anti-vaccine, Anti-fluoride and the Precautionary Principle".

Our guest speaker, Dr. Chic Schissel, practiced Dentistry for a half century.  He has written three books describing good dentistry and criticizing incompetence, quackery, and fraud in the profession.  He is the only dentist ever to have had the honor of a full page editorial in the Journal of the American Dental Association condemning him.

Dr. Schissel has also written many articles, has had many TV and radio appearances, and has lectured on the scientific method.  He has also given adult education courses on The Great American Songbook.  Chic is married and has two kids.
