What is a LIVE Virus vs. MMR or Chicken pox?

[Guest guest]

I thought those were live viruses but now I am told they are not?

They are BOTH live viruses, along with Merck's new RotaTeq.

The NIH has a clear stance about children with primary

immunodeficiencies and live viruse vaccines- DON'T DO IT!

Precautions

It can even KILL kids if they don't respond to the virus properly!

You would think they would weed our kids out before vaxxing with

these, but they don't. I wish my own immunodeficiency had been

diagnosed before my daughter had encephalitis from the Varicella

vaccine! I would have known that is one precaution those with primary

immunodeficiencies, and their children, as well.

It is sick, the RotaTeq, live virus and they are giving it to 2 month

olds, without knowing the immune status!
