Both of these statistics are false. Simple logic, as well as a reasonable level of common sense, would tell you that.edit on 1/4/2011 by VneZonyDostupa because: (no reason given)
Schizophrenia * Approximately 2.4 million American adults, or about 1.1 percent of the population age 18 and older in a given year,11, 2 have schizophrenia. * Schizophrenia affects men and women with equal frequency.12 * Schizophrenia often first appears in men in their late teens or early twenties. In contrast, women are generally affected in their twenties or early thirties.12

It is rare BECAUSE of the vaccines!
Rabies is very rare in people as well, but one door over from me is a kid that just got a round of shots this past summer, because he was bitten by a rabid raccoon!
A few years ago i had a horse die of tetanus, it was a horrible sight!!
Cats do need Rabies shots, maybe you are just thinking of "indoor cats."
The doctors used to describe it as "A Mystery Illness" and never had a good explanation. They knew it was an autoimmune disease (where the immune system attacks the body) but they couldn't explain what caused it.

I went to the Dr. this morning for my annual physical. While there I received a tetanus booster (it's been 15 years since my last). Anyhow, my Dr. also asked me if I had received the flu vaccine this year. I told the Dr. that I have not and that I will not. My Dr. replied by saying "you probably don't need it anyway". I was kind of surprised by that response.

people who receive the flu vaccine are statistically more likely to catch flu.

Nothing in this post provides evidence that the vaccine did anything to your sister. Autoimmune disorders are more common in females (often by a ratio of over 2:1), so it's not unheard of for a sister to be affected by such a disorder, while her brother isn't.
Preliminary research suggests the seasonal flu shot may put people at greater risk for getting swine flu, CBC News has learned.
Four Canadian studies involved about 2,000 people, health officials told CBC News. Researchers found people who had received the seasonal flu vaccine in the past were more likely to get sick with the H1N1 virus.

wasn't just a coincidence?
I spoke with one of the experts on the disease in Cambridge while he was treating my sister
There is also the paper linking the two as I've posted above.
We have to keep open-minds and maybe what happened to my sister would have happened anyway, but it's also important not to write off the possibility that vaccines are causing autoimmune diseases and the huge increase of Special Needs children.

Seasonal flu shot may increase H1N1 risk
This is some evidence that has been floated. It hasn't been validated yet, it's very preliminary," cautioned Dr. Don Low, microbiologist-in-chief at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto.
It's important to validate the information, which has not been peer reviewed, to make sure it's not just a fluke, and that the observation is confirmed elsewhere such as in the Southern Hemisphere, which just completed its seasonal flu season, or in the U.S. and UK.

By the way I come from a large family; 4 brothers and 3 sisters, no one else went down with the autoimmune disease and no other relatives have.
