Firstly, great job in the Nazi comparison! Because wanting to wipe out disease is exactly the same as trying to take over the world and kill 6 million + people! Bravo!
I am also deeply appreciative of your efforts to help bring back fun times like whooping cough, measles,and mumps! because you know, kids today are wimps.
Sorry for the sarcasm and vitriol. I appreciate you are just looking out for your kids. I really do. But the whole anti-vaccine thing is based on naught but fear and fraudulent "research". And Jim Carrey, who is an expert in...nothing?
Cheers.
The people doing the testing and regulating are 100% corrupt..........Do you see the irony? Maybe we should clean up the regulation and testing side and actually get the real facts about these vaccines. Many conflicts of interests are taking place across this entire mess.
I also wonder why the government does not study the lack of autistic children in the Amish communities.

It's not the only court case involving vaccines to find a ruling in favor of the victim:
Family win 18 year fight over MMR damage to son
Here's another one with some controversy surrounding it:
Hannah Poling
Plus thousands of more cases still pending.
Professor Lingam said he believed Robert was ‘genetically predisposed to epilepsy and that the vaccination triggered it rather than caused it. 'Robert would have developed epilepsy in any event, even if he had not had the vaccination’.
But Professor Lingam was overruled by his two colleagues. In their final judgment, they accepted that MMR had caused Robert’s illness but added: ‘We would stress that this decision is fact-specific and it should not be seen as a precedent for any other case. 'In particular, it has no relevance to the issue... as to whether there is a link between the MMR vaccine and autism.’

I see both sides of the vaccine dilemma. I really do. And have lived through some hell for it...or at least my son did.
But what got me to comment here is the whole deathly allergy to tree nuts thing. I think someone should be trying to figure out why that's on the rise, along with asthma, and autism, and so many other things. What combinations of things are killing us? Our food? Our drugs/vaccines? The sun? The air? Something else?

Do you actually follow info regarding vaccines? Do you even know what an adjuvant is? You need to really look into this before you spout off uninformed rhetoric.

well said , this is exactly how we should think and discuss these maters , not like the others who are posting rubbish and discrediting others and defending pharma blindly .

I strongly disagree.
I hope no one takes you seriously.

"over 10" kids
That's 10% of kids
Seriously? 10 kids does not mean 10%. If there were exactly 100 kids at the school, then yes, 10 children would be 10% of the population. If the population is, say, 1000, then 10% = 100 kids. Does this make sense? I think if you put half the amount of time trying to understand percentages as you do vaccines, you'd vastly improve yourself.

1. Vaccines DO help build up an immunity against the intended diseases. This is achieved by introducing weakened or dead strains of said illness.
2. The additives in vaccines ARE toxic. A small amount of toxin introduced to a healthy specimen can usually be filtered out with no problem. Not every body is the same, some people are more sensitive to some things.
3. Some children have life altering negative reactions to vaccines. Yes, it is a small percentage, but it is there. And when it's YOUR kid suffering it doesn't matter if it's 0.009% or 90%.
4. The pharma/medical establishment DOWNPLAYS vaccine casualties. Casualties as in death, and casualties as in neurological damage.
5. Back to point 2. -a healthy body can filter toxins. But what happens when you're being attacked on all fronts? Air pollution, household cleaners, food additives, plastics, etc etc. Like the canary in the mine shaft, children are more vulnerable and the quickest to succumb.
6. As a PP so astutely added- the reason behind the astronomical increase in allergies is our germaphobe society. Our bodies were designed to live in symbiosis with many millions of other organisms. When we get OCD about hand washing, alcohol gel, disinfecting surfaces, panicking when our kids eat off the floor or touch an animal, throwing antibiotics at every little sniffle....our bodies are left with no option but to turn on themselves. *look up Helminthic Therapy for autoimmune diseases
7. Vaccines aren't 100% effective. Some of these outbreaks involved children that HAD been vaccinated.
My personal experience: I waited 6 months to vax my baby. By that point I had a pretty good idea of his cues and what was normal for him. His first shot was the DTaP....and ONLY that one. We got home and he screamed bloody murder for 4 hours straight. NOT normal for him. According to anecdotal evidence from the internet he might possibly be having a reaction to the Pertussis part of the vaccine and his screaming may be indicative of encephalitis. When I called my doctor's nurse to report this reaction I was met with "It's normal for them to be fussy." Sorry b*tch, but this went beyond 'fussy'. Next time I saw my doctor (who I generally love) he gave me the same dog and pony show- swearing that he has never seen one negative reaction to a vaccine....sorry, but that's statistically impossible. It was like the Twilight Zone, like he was reading from a script.
I waited a few more months and my baby got the Hib vaccine...no reaction.
I'm going back next month to get just the DT (we're in the country and I really want him vaccinated against Tetanus). I will be monitoring him very closely.
My 6 yo daughter has never had a negative reaction and we are 100% on the recommended schedule. My son now is on a carefully monitored delayed schedule. And so far the schools have been totally cool about it, I just have to provide a note from my doc.
No one should be FORCED to vaccinate their kids. Doctors should be much more honest about the risks and the recommended schedule should be much more spread out, none of this multi-shot nonsense until they're much older.
