I'm surprised that high-profile AAAS/Science has made a relatively big deal out of this story due to heightened sensitivities surrounding the vaccine and the fact that anti-vaxxers are looking at anything and everything to criticize the vaccination program. I'm the last one to advocate censorship, especially so with regards to science reporting, but this article may have been better presented as a small sub-article or news footnote (that is, unless there's serious merit to the story). Please note, I'm not advocating censorship here, I am in fact advocating the story receive commensurately fewer column inches in line with what it actually deserves. What is particularly worrying about the PEG matter is that it won't take long for the naysayers to try to associate it with its mate of similar name [sans 'poly'] — I'm not even game to mention it for fear of it being indexed, etc. No doubt, however, others will and that'll be and unwanted setback.
