"As a medical doctor, there was a time where I looked very closely at those issues, and not all those issues were completely resolved," Stein said. "There were concerns among physicians about what the vaccination schedule meant, the toxic substances like mercury which used to be rampant in vaccines. There were real questions that needed to be addressed. I think some of them at least have been addressed. I don’t know if all of them have been addressed."

Using anti vax arguments to appeal to anti vax people is just as bad as being anti vax yourself

Hm yes saying "I'm just asking questions! Are we sure mercury in vaccines is safe?!" is definitely not trying to appeal to anti vaxxers.

She could easily make a general anti- revolving door argument because it certainly isn't an issue just with the FDA and pharma companies but she is focused on that in particular because a large part of the Green's base is anti-vax.

Whether or not she personally says the words "vaccines are bad" is kind of irrelevant in that context.

The "I'm not touching you!!!!" political argument of Jill Stein not being anti vaxx
