There are many doctors who appear to be open and willing to agree with the proving of a reaction. Most, if not all chiropractors are against vaccinations. There are other doctors who will simply direct you to a government, or pharmaceutical website that exists to convince you that there is no proof that vaccinations are linked to autism and other common day conditions. Doctors receive commissions on the products that they prescribe, they are spoiled with free lunches and goodies from their visiting Pharamceutical reps.
I am referring to all vaccinations here, including the flu vaccination, chicken pox vaccination (an illness that was normal when I was a child and I will most likely not get it now, as I naturally developed immunity to it), measles, tetanus, etc. Continuous vaccinations suppress the immune system and the nervous system, can alter the body's natural ability to fight off illness and can create havoc in a variety of other ways. The government appears more open to the idea of protecting the pharmaceutical companies than it does to protect the general public. Lots of money involved here... Check out the book, "The Truth About Drug Companies," by Marcia Angell's.
Reactions to vaccinations can occur within hours, days, weeks or even months after the actual vaccination has been administered. The symptoms may vary as well. According to Barbara Loe Fisher, co-founder and president of the National Vaccine Information Center, some of the possible symptoms are, "Redness at the site of the injection, high pitched screaming, inconsolable crying, high fever, paralysis, seizures, loss of consciousness to behavioral changes, sleep disturbances, confusion, flapping, loss of relatedness, eye contact, etc... Often regression is accompanied by symptoms of immune dysfunction such as new food allergies, environmental allergies, asthma, digestive issues, skin disorders and chronic respiratory and ear infections, etc." (Fisher, Pg. 41)
According to Dr. Pamela Popper, a trusted friend and very well known naturopathic doctor who recently appeared in the documentary, "Forks Over Knives," states, "In the U.S. the death rate of childhood diseases actually began to drop dramatically when living and sanitation improved, not when vaccinations were introduced." Let's use an example, she goes on to state, "The incidence of measles was 400,000 in 1965 and only 100 in 1999. However, during this same period of time, the rates of asthma, allergies, ADD, mental retardation and learning disabilities increased dramatically." (Popper, Pg. 236) She makes the point that, "...many physicians who recommend vaccinations to their patients do not recommend them for their own families." (Popper, Pg. 237) Dr. Popper also mentions that there have been no large-scale clinical trials to prove whether, or not vaccines are truly safe and effective. A billion dollars is set aside each year by Congress, so that new vaccines can be developed and put into use, but there is no research money set aside to study the safety of vaccines. (Popper, Pg. 238)
Did you know that most vaccines contain cultured bacteria, viruses, dog or monkey kidney tissue, chicken embryos, pig blood or cowpox pus? (Popper, Pg. 239) Have you ever thought to ask to see the list of ingredients in the vaccine prior to administering a vaccination?
"According to a 1991 article in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the lowest vaccination rates among medical personnel for the German measles vaccine occurred among ob/gyns and the next lowest among pediatricians." (Popper, Pg. 237)
"...1991-1994, there were 38,787 adverse reactions reported to the Vaccine Adverse Reaction Reporting System. 45% of these reactions occurred on the same day, 20% on the day after and the rest within 2 weeks. Reports of deaths for children between 1 and 3 months of age were recorded as resulting from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, rather than as a byproduct of vaccines, even though there may be a cause and effect relationship." (Popper, Pg. 238)
Most children receive approximately 37-84 doses of 14 different vaccines by the time they reach age 6. This could be a potential reason as to why they have adverse reactions. I personally could not imagine vaccinating my newborn child, particularly with vaccinations such as Hepatitis B, a sexually transmitted disease.
"In 1989, the Centers for Disease Control reported that measles outbreaks were occurring in schools that had vaccination levels of 98%. One study concluded that the apparent paradox is that as measles immunization rates rise to high levels in a population, measles becomes a disease of immunized persons... These studies suggest that the goal of complete immunization is actually counterproductive..." (Popper, Pg. 242) This is also similar to the outbreak of whopping cough last year in Ohio. Most of the people that were getting the whooping cough had been vaccinated...
I could literally go on, and on, and on about the potential side effects of vaccinations. I am going to include some reliable sites below that are also great resources about the various topics surrounding vaccinations.
Please let me know if you have further questions. Thank you for checking in with me and good night!
