Re: This sit the wrong way with me

Hi ,

There are several boards hashing out about vaccinations right now. Anyway,

my stand is this: I think vaccinations are great, BUT, I also think that

doctors are giving them to kids who are not healthy enough to receive them

and this is where alot of the problem is. DPT and MMR are a little

worrisome, but my brain in not in from deliberating about it yet. What I

mean about the doctors failing to give the shots to healthy kids is simple.

I don't think that premature babies should receive there shots on the same

schedual as a full term healthy chunky baby. My son was 3 pounds when he

got his first shot, a shot that was meant for a child weighing at least 7

pounds. He was 5 1/2 pounds when he received his 2 month shots, shots made

for kids who are between 12-14 pounds. Also I think doctors are more

concerned about their minding the rules and having to not bring people back

in so much that they are giving the shots to kids who were just sick or are

sick. This is bad considering that the warning labels state specifically

that no child should get immunized when ill, because there immune systems

are not at normal levels to handle the shot properly. The other culperate,

and I don't mean to step on any toes here, are the parents. By this I mean,

the parents who take their kids to the doctor for a shot and tell the doctor

that their child has not been sick, or is not currently sick, yet the kid is

doped up on Tylonal and Dimatap. I was doing a report on vaccinations about

3 years ago and several of the good pediatritions in town told me that the

main reason parents will do it is time. They don't want to have to make

another appointment and miss more work, the other reason being that many

parents do not realize that this is very dangerous. Another thing these

peds told me is, is that many doctors shurg off the parents reports of

reactions and continue the series. BAD BAD BAD!!!! I believe that doctors

need to be more up front about the risk, I think parents need to be more

informed about the risk if the child is ill, and I think that doctors need

to be more careful. For those interested, The DHS in CA is doing a study on

MMR, because they think it is the culperate in the rise of Autism in the

nation. In CA, Autism is at a rate of 1 in 312, the national norm used to

be like 1/ 20,000+.

Well, that is my two cents. I have been doing more research on it because

of s immune probs.
