Think about it...
LOL.....keep believing that if it makes you feel better! it always comes out in the wash!
Its not me "exposing" people to these things....its these things that expose us in the first place. MOOOO
Once again....MOOOOOOO!

I say if you want your kids vaccinated, go for the individual jabs.
They don't seem to carry the same risk as mmr.
Secondly, all those folks beating about unvaccinated kids posing a risk...well, whats the point of your kid getting shots if they're at risk? I don't get it.

Children can't get certain shots until one year of age. Before that they are at risk. Google "whooping cough California."

Your entire generation got measles, mumps, and rubella? And all the other big diseases too? No offense meant but that is a really ignorant statement. I would do some research on the history of pandemics.
I don't know anyone who's died either but I assure you, they have.

Measles and mumps, certainly. They used to just pop up and race through school.
There was a rubella vaccine that the girls got at around 13yrs old...most of us just grew up with smallpox, whooping cough, tetanus and polio vaccines, then had a bcg for tb in our teens.

Mumps is a viral infection spread from person to person by secretions sneezed or coughed from the nose or throat. Mumps usually begins with swelling and tenderness of one or more of the salivary glands. This lasts about a week. Complications can include inflamed testicles (20% to 50% of post-pubertal males infected), brain involvement including aseptic meningitis (15% of cases), and inflammation of the pancreas (2% to 5% of cases) and ovaries (5% of post-pubertal females). Permanent deafness occurs in 1 out of 2,000 cases. The mumps virus has not been associated with problems during pregnancy, although there are some reports of an increase in fetal loss associated with mumps during the first trimester. Before widespread vaccination, there were about 200,000 cases of mumps and 20 to 30 deaths reported each year in the United States. In 1998, there were just 600 cases of mumps and no fatalities reported from the disease.

The thing is that there is such a big conspiracy about this because so many people have come to the same conclusions. And I dont believe in coincidences either!
It's like 9/11. So many professionals, doctors-, firemen-, policemen-, engineers for 9/11 Truth yet it gets blatantly ignored my MSM and as a result, by everybody else.
Thank you for posting this OP, I for one really appreciate it. You sound like you are well versed on the subject. Once there was a thread titled, 'Get your doctor to sign this before giving your child a vaccination' and it was like a contract citing different studies by doctors. Do perhaps know where I can find this? I'm desperate to save my unborn child from autism so I truelly am begging for help here.

Ok, but the op was about mmr, nothing to do with whooping cough.

Please get the MMR. Aside for anything else, you are endangering other children that go to the same school as your children by not getting it. Put it this way, if your kids went to the same school as my kids, i would be petitioning the school for the removal of your children until they either got the vaccine or went somewhere else.
Quite serious about that. The risks from vaccines are miniscule. The risks for mumps, measles and rubella are not.

Basically because any child exposed to them has the potential to spread viruses / diseases. Therefore a vaccinated child could go home after school and pass the virus to a younger, unvaccinated child. This could lead to death. If that happened to my child because someone couldn't be bothered to vaccinate their child (or didn't agree with vaccination, or whatever), i would be seeking charges from the Police and CPS for manslaughter.
Make no mistake, the potential for serious illness being passed on is very real and present.
And again, i would reiterate, even simple operations carry the potential for death. Therefore anyone who isn't prepared to allow vaccination shouldn't be allowed operations either. The risk to health is far higher from operation than it is for vaccination.

Yes they are treatable but in unvaccinated people they can lead to all sorts of serious complications. Resulting in things like liver failure, respiratory problems, death, etc.
Its ok though, i thought this wasn't an issue to you?

Fair enough explanation there at least. Would you have an operation if required though? The risk is far greater.......

If vaccines cause Autism then why is Autism on the rise when vaccines are on the decline? If they cause autism, why do children who never get vaccinated show signs of autism around one year of age, the same age the MMR is administered?
While you may find a few doctors here or there to come out in favor of causation between vaccinations and autism, you'll find many many more telling you that their is no conclusive evidence of causation between the two.
As heart breaking as it is for parents to see their children exhibit signs of autism around the age of 1 year, right after the administration of the MMR, attributing causation to a mere correlation is a bit too convenient.
So ATS, be the smart people you are and go research this one (making sure to check your sources, wouldn't want to get your evidence from a source like the Jenny McCarthy Foundation or anything like that). You definitely don't want to take someones word for it. Go look at the evidence (or lack of) yourself.
Zero evidence of causation between vaccinations and autism, symptoms just happen to appear around the same age as when the MMR is administered.edit on 16-7-2012 by brianmg5 because: (no reason given)

I'm a professional in that field and anyone who doesn't vaccinate is IMO stupid and selfish. Keep your kids out of society and in a bubble where they won't cause harm to anyone else's child--we don't want their germs.
My next door neighbor's 4 month old son (not old enough to have had the whole schedule of shots) just spent a week in the hospital on a ventilator because he contracted pertussis from his father...who's a crazy loon who thinks vaccines are just a conspiracy theory to kill your children.
It almost killed his own instead.
