About

This project investigates the image memes shared on Facebook by anti-vaccination and pro-vaccination advocates. Do anti-vaccination memes rely on fear appeals more than pro-vaccination memes? Is anecdotal evidence solely the domain of anti-vaccination memes? Are pro-vaccination memes more likely to use sarcasm as a means to communicate?
