""We have anecdotal evidence on the discussion boards that these parties are taking place," Geraldine Holman told Sky News Online."

Bad enough that journos are using mumsnet as their source so much, but now MN Towers are helping them out?

Well, it's certainly not my recollection of the conversation. Quote is perhaps as close to what I said as my surname ie mostly right but a bit wrong

From what I recollect, I said Mumsnetters were discussing swine flu and the anecdotal evidence that there had been swine flu parties eg on this thread.

But it got a bit garbled . Tis true to say that pros and cons of getting it earlier vs later are being discussed. And even more so since BBC asked Justine for a quote in reaction to BMA.
