This sux, who can I believe? The Doctors OR the articles with statistics, is it better to be safe and not do the vaccines or is better to have the vaccines and HOPE nothing hapens to my child? Does anyone have peer reviewed articles I can read up on, I don't want to have to give unesseary vaccines just because the Doc says to.
All the studies I've seen say that the thiomersal (the mercury preservative) in vaccines is perfectly safe as it is an extremely low dose.
They also make them without mercury now, as I've said. So get vaccines without thiomersal if possible.

Do some research on the effects of diseases like tetanus, polio, and meningitis. I'll take the vaccines, thank you.

I guess you know more than the medical researchers who insist that vaccines are safe. And all the doctors that agree with the practice. And I guess they think they know better than the little anti-vaccine groups out there.
Without looking, can you tell me which vaccines contain formaldehyde? And you know that the body naturally produces formaldehyde, right?

Isn't it a bit strange that I'm 49 years old and NO ONE I know, close to my age, has any autism? I have had this discussion with my friends and none of know of anyone close to our ages with autism. We were all vaccinated repeatedly. Maybe they were all just labeled, retarded, back then. I still get my vaccinations every 10 years, except for the flu vaccine.

You do know that the doctors get payments for prescriptions...from the pharma corps? Their word is rather suspect, eh? You do know that many "research" programs are funded by pharma corporations? Their words are a bit suspect too, eh?

Nope. Not without looking (though it would be a simple matter, and I suspect it is virtually all of them). And I bet formaldehyde is NOT injected in (relatively) large amounts into the bloodstream by the body.

Oh, most doctors love prescribing things. My doctor's an exception, he's more of a holistic guy (and a real family practice doctor). But yeah, you need to know what you're being prescribed and how necessary it is before you take anything... but don't refuse a doctor's advice in a situation where you can die or be permanently harmed.

I think this is a nice site.

Formaldehyde is oxidised to formic acid which leads to acidosis and nerve damage. Acidosis can be described as a condition in which the acidity of the body tissues and fluids is abnormally high. The liver and the kidneys may also be damaged.

With that said, as far as I know - there are reportedly drastic measures that have been taken to ensure no poisonous vaccines are given. I am currently pregnant myself with my first child, and immunizations for my child is something that I'm very concerned about. However, the truth is - she can't even go to school without being vaccinated - at least that's the law in Texas.
Thanks for the post. Good discussion here.
