Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Hi all!!! Please check out the Letters to the Northland Age of today (12/2) when they are posted on http://www.northnz.co.nz <http://www.northnz.co.nzoset> Perhaps some of you would like to contribute a letter in reply to Coralie Zimmer and Jarman? Here is the letter Erwin Alber of VINE has sent: Dear Editor, Coralie Zimmer and Jarman defend the MMR-vaccine, Coralie on the grounds that " the symptoms of autism appear around the time of vaccination, but this does not automatically mean that one causes the other " . The US Centre for Disease Control also states: " Typically, symptoms of autism are first noted by parents as their child begins to have difficulty with delays in speaking after age one. MMR vaccine is first given to children at 12 to 15 months of age. Therefore autism cases with an apparent onset within a few weeks after MMR vaccination may simply be an expected but unrelated chance occurrence " . Dr Wakefield, the specialist who first pointed to a possible link between MMR and autism (and bowel disease) is unrepentant. Despite massive criticism leading to his resignation of his position at the Royal Free Hospital in London, he has the support of many parents caring for autistic children. He says parental fears of a link between MMR and autism and bowel disease have merit and that there is genuine ground for concern. Dr Aitken, a specialist in the treatment of autism, believes there is a clear link between autism and the MMR jab. " When I was training, one in 2,500 [children were autistic]. Now it is one in 250. At the moment, the only logical explanation for this is MMR, " he said. Here are (excerpts from) two letters we have received from New Zealand parents: " Damian was a very happy baby and progressed like any other, babbling, chatting and playing like a normal baby boy. Then came the 15-month vaccination, when he was injected with the measles vaccine in one leg and the DPT-booster in the other. Two days later he had a reaction, a high fever of 105 and a measles rash. On his next visit the Plunket nurse commented on " very little chatter " , on the visit at 20 months " no eye contact " and thought he had a hearing problem. He continued to suffer from frequent fevers and at the age of two Damian was diagnosed with autism at the Starship Hospital. When Damian was 4 we applied for compensation which ACC refused on the grounds of NO MEDICAL EVIDENCE. " " Nadia was born in March 1995, a beautiful, healthy little girl. We made sure she received every vaccination as scheduled. When Nadia was 15 months old she had the MMR and hepatitis B injections. She was grizzly and unsettled afterwards and on the 7th day she had a rash over her whole little body and a high temperature. Our GP said: " 5% of children react this way, there is no reason to worry " and that she would report this reaction to the Centre of Adverse Reaction Monitoring (CARM) in Dundedin. We now know that this was not done. Nadia kept developing normally, but stopped putting on weight and became more " picky " over what she would eat. When she was 18 months old, she developed a fear of heights and of the bath, even though she had loved water and baths; otherwise she seemed bright and normal. She could say three or four sentences, but then she gradually started losing her language and no longer seemed to understand a lot of what was being said to her. Our GP said it was just a phase she was going through. At 21 months, Nadia was very sick. Her asthma which had developed at 13 months returned and she had two lots of ear infections and several lots of antibiotics to clear them. While this was going on, the practice nurse at our GP's clinic rung us more than once to remind us that Nadia's last lot of vaccinations were due. I said to her: " Let us wait till Nadia is better before we do it " . In February 1997, Nadia was given her 4th DPTH and almost immediately developed a very large lump on her leg. On the first day she really couldn't walk at all and she limped for about 3 more days. Naturally we took her to our GP who measured the red lump on her leg and said she would report this reaction to the appropriate authorities. We later found out that this was not done. After that vaccination, Nadia deteriorated quickly before our eyes. She started this horrible, high pitched screaming and strange behaviour like opening and closing cupboard doors and turning electrical light switches on and off continuously, turning her body sideways and lifting her arm up into the air, and rocking back and forward on her feet. She stopped playing with her toys and lost all interest in her surroundings. She was now 2 years old, and almost mute, obviously disturbed, She weighed only 11.5 kg and often we suspected her to be in pain. Our GP referred her to a paediatrician, but the day before our appointment Nadia didn't wake up in the morning. The diagnosis was nocturnal seizure and now four months of real hell began. Nadia was put through a series of tests - MRI scan, CT scan, lumbar puncture, 24 hour EEG. All the tests were normal except the EEG which showed a left-sided dysfunction. We did mention vaccine-damage at this time but were told this was excluded!! She was finally diagnosed as having Landau-Kleffner Syndrome, an acquired aphasia in childhood, with convulsive disorder and secondary disturbances - no cause, no prognosis, no treatment. My husband and I are very exhausted right now, trying to convince the medical profession that our little girl was brain damaged as a result of being vaccinated. We wonder what the future holds for Nadia. " Erwin Alber Vaccination Information Network PO Box 149 Kaeo, Northland Erwin suggests, you could send the following letter, but do please write your own if you'd prefer. Dear Editor, Coralie Zimmer and Jarman's stance concerning the MMR-vaccine appears to be widespread. A British Department of Health spokesman insisted: " Parents who received payments after their children died following MMR would not get the money now as science has moved on. MMR protects against death and we stand by the fact that no child has died as a result of MMR. " The Sunday Express has revealed that at least 26 families claim their children died as a result of the controversial measles, mumps and rubella jab. In some cases the Government has awarded parents up to £100,000 under its 1979 Vaccine Damage Payment Act. In others, post mortem reports concluded the jab was the most likely cause of death. Despite this, the Department of Health insists no child has ever died from MMR. The parents are now demanding an official inquiry into the deaths. " , 40, whose daughter Stacey died, said: " The Government should take responsibility. It has never given proper warnings of the risk and still doesn't despite the evidence. Tony Blair can see his children at home. I have to visit my daughter at her grave. " Experts writing in the Journal of Pediatrics concluded that of 48 children who reacted to the measles component of the jab, eight died and the rest had seizures or brain damage. And a recent study on 1.8 million children by the Finnish Health Board linked neurological reactions, allergic attacks, epilepsy and meningitis to the vaccine. Many of the families of children who have died have taken legal action. Barr, of solicitors , has details of 24 cases. He said: " It is widely acknowledged in medical literature and by the American government that the triple vaccine can, on rare occasions, kill, yet this Government won't accept it. " Jackie Fletcher, of the pressure group Jabs, which is trying to highlight the potential dangers, said: " The Government should be giving people full and accurate information about health risks. " Francis's son, , began behaving abnormally two years after he had MMR in January 1990. He lost control of his movements and slept for 18 hours at a time. Within months he fell into a coma and died in December. , then seven, had developed a degenerative brain condition called SSPE (sub-acute sclerosis pan encephalitis), linked to the measles component. The disease can have a long incubation period and Mrs Francis, 40, an auxiliary nurse and 's consultant think the vaccine was the only way could have developed it. The family, from Easington, north Yorkshire, are taking legal action against the vaccine's manufacturer. Shipman was born in 1985 and was a healthy three-year-old when he received the MMR vaccine. When he was nine his parents Elaine and of Eastwood, Nottingham, noticed he was having problems with his balance and co-ordination. He too was diagnosed with SSPE and died in June 1999, aged 14. They received £30,000 compensation. His father, a lorry driver, said: " We took into hospital in October 1994 and by Christmas he was in a wheelchair. We were told by the consultant who treated him that his condition was caused by his vaccination. " In 1995 the Government's vaccine damage tribunal paid £30,000 compensation to , of Gateshead, for brain damage after he was given MMR at the age of four. died nine years later aged 13. Biopsy material taken from his brain and intestines will form a central plank of the scientific evidence in support of a legal case due to be heard in October next year. Up to 300 cases relate to this brand of vaccine - Pluserix - which was banned by the Department of Health in 1992 after being linked with meningitis. This was two years after an identical vaccine was banned in Canada. and Faye say the jab transformed their healthy, intelligent son into a child needing round-the-clock care. It took them six years and four hearings, however, to persuade the vaccine damage tribunal of this. Faye, 59, said: " It's not about money, but truth. It's diabolical that the Government refuses to acknowledge the risks of MMR. " Judith Dwyer, 45, of Tongwynlaif, near Cardiff, received a payment after her four-year-old daughter Chloe died following a " booster " jab in 1989. She too was given a version later banned because of its dangerous side effects. Chloe developed pins and needles in her legs, then paralysis and problems breathing. She was rushed to hospital but it was too late. After an eight-year fight Judith, an intensive care technician, persuaded a tribunal the jab was the likely cause of Chloe's death. In September 1996 it accepted this and paid out. Mother of two Judith said: " Health visitors called me a scare mongerer and laughed. But we fought to raise the profile of vaccine damage. " Stacey Berry, of Atherton, Manchester was 13 when she had a booster jab in November 1994. Days later she started having fits, " stopped smiling, and stared into space. " She was diagnosed with the brain disease SSPE and given two years to live. She died in November 2000, aged 19. A post mortem examination concluded the disease was a " rare complication " of the vaccine " . Coulter was 15 when he suffered a fit and died in his sleep 10 days after being vaccinated. He had an unblemished health record and no history of epilepsy but no explanation has been offered other than the statement on his death certificate - " asphyxiation due to severe epileptic seizure " . His mother Anne of Hillsborough, northern Ireland said: " Nothing would replace , but I want answers. I want peace of mind for my daughters should they ever have children. " Hannah Buxton was 18 months old when she reacted to her first MMR jab. She started having fits and died 18 months later in February 1992. Parents Carol and Tony of Towcester, Northants, did not know Hannah had been given the strain of vaccine later withdrawn after it was deemed unsafe. In March that year a tribunal blamed the vaccine for her death. Nicola Gentle, 29, of Plymouth, Devon, is convinced her 15-month-old baby Emma Jane died because of the triple vaccine she was given in September 1998. Within six hours she was on a life-support machine. Three days later she was brain dead but a coroner said he could not say for certain whether or not MMR had killed her. Shirley Fitzgerald's son Kieren was given the MMR jab in June 1991 when he was 14 months. He reacted within days. " He stopped smiling, laughing and crying and became frightened of his toys, " said Shirley. Kieren also developed bowel problems - linked to MMR by some scientists. In July 1992, he died, aged two. Toddler Harriet died following an MMR vaccination in 1998. Six weeks later she suffered fits and died in her parents arms. and Pat , of Peasedown St , near Bath, took the case to tribunal. Jade Scrimger was vaccinated with MMR at 17 months and died from meningitis three days later in October 1998. Her mother Sheena has since discovered the drug used on her daughter was later banned by the Department of Health because it caused meningitis. She has abandoned the idea of taking legal action against the vaccine manufacturers, however, because lawyers say it is not worth it. In Britain the maximum award for a child's death is £7,500. Five days after Elaine Adam's 16-month-old son Stevie was given the MMR vaccine 1991 he too developed meningitis and died. Elaine and her husband , of East Kilbride, were convinced MMR was to blame but their fears were dismissed by doctors. Mrs Adam has refused to allow her second child, Terry, six, to have the jab. ___________________ Also, he adds that the February issue of (New Zealand) Healthy Options features a letter by Margaret Dalton of the Immunisation Advisory Centre (IMAC again) in which she quotes the following from the Reference Guide on Vaccines and Vaccine Safety by the US National partnership for Immunisation 2001: " Scientific studies have not provided evidence to support a causal relationship between DPT immunisation and serious acute neurological illness resulting in permanent neurological injury " .

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2002 Report Share Posted October 7, 2002 In the US there is usually a second booster around five or six. Many people get titer levels checked. If they are adequate you don't need the booster. The problem with this is, the so called people they talk about not making antibodies even after the vaccine, can happen to anyone. You can have any vaccine repeatedly and still not be protected from the disease. > Can a child be vaccinated using single vaccines for Measles, Mumps and > Rubella after a combined MMR vaccine?

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Glad that Sammy had a good eye check and good luck on getting those injections further apart. The info on the MMR is great. I never would have thought of that. Hugs, Michele ( 17, pauci & spondy) MMR Hi All, Just wanted to mention that if your child is due for an MMR booster and you have concerns about whether it's okay for them to have the immunization, the next time you have his or her labwork done, request that they also run the tests to check the titers for measles, mumps and rubella. Sammy was supposed to have the booster shot as part of her kindergarten entrance shots, but can't since she's on Humira. She got a doctor's note excusing her, but at her pediatrician's suggestion we also had her titers checked, and they indicated that the initial doses given to her when she was a baby have probably given her sufficient immunity already. It helped with my peace of mind to know that as the thought of her entering elementary school unprotected against potentially serious diseases while on drugs that suppressed her immune system had me worried. BTW, we had an eye appt. today, and although her pressures are creeping back up a bit, there was no sign of inflammation and we'd finished tapering down her steroid drops to the minimal maintenance dose (Pred Mild twice a day which is the equivalent of 1/4 drop of Pred Forte daily) two weeks ago. Hooray! I guess the next step will be lengthening the interval between Humira injections from 10 to 14 days. Please wish us luck! --Lori (Sammy, 5, pauci/uveitis) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 If you can re-snag the URL to the CDC concerning WRV then please do post it. This would be interesting. Unless I'm mistaken the MMR is a live, attenuated virus vaccine. I think that means that the virus is, indeed, live, but incapable of reproducing for more than one generation or so. The strains are supposed to be the same old laboratory ones used in vaccination brews since the 1950s or so. Needless to say, Wakefield's discovery of measles colonies in gut biopsies and in the cerebral spinal fluid of autistic children seems to fly in the face of attenuation claims. I think, Wakefield had them measles PCR'd (a sort of genetic or DNA test) and they were vaccine-strain positive. -------------- Original message -------------- From: angela <angelashelley29@...> I read the other day on the CDC website that wild rubella virus is one of the known causes of autism. Is this true? Is the MMR vaccine live? If it is then how hard is it to conceive that the MMR vaccine may lead to autism? I'm confused. --------------------------------- Use Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 I think this may be a case of if something doesn't make sense it should be thrown out. I did not find any particular web site for the rubella infection that clearly states that autism and pre-natal rubella (German Measles) infection are related to each other. I did find something termed congenital rubella syndrome. Here is a clinical description of congenital rubella syndrome: An illness, usually manifesting in infancy, resulting from rubella infection in utero and characterized by signs or symptoms from the following categories: Cataracts/congenital glaucoma, congenital heart disease (most commonly patent ductus arteriosus or peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis), loss of hearing, pigmentary retinopathy. Purpura, splenomegaly, jaundice, microcephaly, mental retardation, meningoencephalitis, radiolucent bone disease. There's nothing in any of this to really suggest autism is necessarily an outcome of rubella infection in pregnant women. Add in some background for CRS: The number of reported cases of congenital rubella syndrome in the United States has declined more than 97.4% from 77 cases in 1970 to a total of 2 cases in 1996. Between 1990 and 1996, 92 cases of CRS have been reported to the National Congenital Rubella Syndrome Registry. Of these cases, 75 (82%) were indigenous, and 17 (18%) were imported. Here are some thoughts: If pre-natal rubella infection causes autism then it doesn't make sense that cases of congenital rubella syndrome declined to a total of 2 cases in 1996, while autism was on the rise in the same time frame. In some cases states have seen a 5X digit increase in autism diagnosis since the early 1990s. If pre-natal rubella infection is a known cause of autism then certainly a pretty major outbreak of rubella among pregnant women was missed by the CDC entirely beginning in the early 1990s. If pre-natal rubella infection causes autism, which has been in epidemic proportions for many years, then certainly it seems that vaccinating lots of women in their childbearing years would be logical. http://www.deafblind.com/crs.html -------------- Original message -------------- From: angela <angelashelley29@...> Here it is.. http://www.cdc.gov/nip/vacsafe/concerns/autism/autism-mmr.htm#2 The part I'm reffering to is under # 6. " Ironically, infection of pregnant woman with " wild " rubella virus is one of the few known causes of autism. " --------------------------------- Autos. Looking for a sweet ride?

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 It's not only the children who bottom out with the MMR. Our workplace, a large hospital, began requiring an MMR update with yearly screening a couple of years ago. Three coworkers ended up with arthritic response. One, a surgeon, could not operate for many weeks and was on steroids etc. That surgeon is now on indeterminate leave with leukemia. Yet, no one sees the connection. > > > > My NT 16 year old daughter told me her PE teacher's 3 year old son > was > > diagnosed with autism on Tuesday. Happy Holidays, right?

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Speaking of MMR can someone point me to some biomed information specifically for autism due to the MMR vaccine? I couldn't find anything specific to the MMR. I am almost 100% certain my 13 year old non- verbal son's autism was caused by the MMR. His 2001 brain MRI shows " the possibility of post vaccinations autoimmune demyelination as well as atypical Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE). " SSPE is an altered form of the measles virus attacking the brain – in it's true form. Add his 105 degree fever and regression after his MMR shot to the mystery and it doesn't seem like much of a mystery any longer. We did the Cutler ALA chelation protocol for about 8 months and have not seen any results and I just think I am barking up the wrong tree.

I'm just fishing for info and advice! If you don't want to give the vaccine the is another way to get around it. The Rubella part of the vaccine is made not from chickens but from an aborted human fetus. Many of the newer vaccines are. People can and have taken a religious exception for this vaccine. Even if you don't believe in the religious exemption they are less likely to fight you on it then if you give the doctors that as the reason. http://www.cogforlife.org/vaxexempt.htm http://www.immunize.org/concerns/vaticandocument.htm The two documents are specifically about rubella but there is more info on the respective websites.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 We have not vaccinated our daughter ( age 2) with the MMR. Nor will we do so until she is about 8 or so. We kept her pretty well isolated from others (no mall, crowded areas, we had water jugs in the car with hand soap to wash before we unbuckled or touched her, etc.) when she was an infant. When they are younger, (2-6 ish) the effects of the illness are not as bad as when they are teenagers or adults. We'll have passed several crucial developmental/cognitive milestones by that point in time. However, when we do finally get her these shots, it will be done one at a time, not in a cocktail of all three. But then any time she is sick she immediately goes to the doctor, and her pediatrician is well aware that she is without vaccines. Re: Autism chances in second child Hi , I We did not follow the pediatricians recommended schedule. At 15 months when it was time for the MMR we first were going to seperate the vaccine and give them separately over several months but then decided to forgo further vaccinations altogether on the advice of DD's DAN! . <http://geo./serv?s=97359714/grpId=3297531/grpspId=1705061616/msgId =101744/stime=1171044100/nc1=3848645/nc2=4025377/nc3=3> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Drea With the MMR it isn't mercury that you need to worry about but rather the viruses themselves, along with all the other nasty stuff (toxins and such), contained in the vaccine. For many kids instead of boosting the immune system, it overwhelms and detroys the immune system. Chronic viral infections are very common in our kids and they can be difficult to overcome. You may want to consider this and really do a lot of research before agreeing to the MMR for your child.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Drea, I can understand your concern regarding exposure. In CT where I live, an unvaccinated child cannot go to school when there is an outbreak of any of the viruses that they are not vaccinated for until that risk is past, I think the standard is 10 days. I am comfortable with that procedure and overall I think the chances of exposure is very small anyway. I agree with Sheresa's post regarding the toxins and the virus itself being the problem. Thimerosal compounds that problem. If you really feel you must vaccinate then definitely do single dose vaccinations and give vitamin A and vitamin C. Here is a vaccine recommendation schedule from my DAN! doctor's website. http://www.avontherapeuticcenter.com/vaccinerecommendations3.html > > > > , and others, > > > > My daughter has not yet had her MMR vaccine (or her second MMR?). > She's 3 > > years old.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Drea, We have a 7yr grandson who was lead/mercury toxic at age 2. He was behind on all immunizations[thank heavens!] due to constant illness. He's had no vaccines since those early ones. He lives in a big city and goes to school with a very diverse population-no trouble so far. His younger brother who will begin K in fall 2007 has had NO vaccines. He's the healthiest of our 5 grandchildren. He currently is in pre-school part-time, also with very diverse population. We all went through the typical childhood illnesses in our large family in the 50's-60's. Measles and mumps were no fun but not life threatening. At one point, whooping cough came around. All but the baby had been fully vaccinated - however, all 9 of us[ages 3mos to 10 yrs] came down with it. That's not saying much for vaccine efficacy. > > > > > > , and others, > > > > > > My daughter has not yet had her MMR vaccine (or her second > MMR?). > > She's 3 > > > years old.

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hello all, The misconception here (in other words, the lies we've been told) is that these diseases are untreatable and that we will probably die from them if we catch them. While I don't doubt that immigrants could pose a problem, these diseases ARE treatable. BUT, most Dr.s will not tell you this! Why?? Because it is homeopathy that has been able (for the past 200 years!!) to cure people from these awful illnesses! Because of the controversy that exists in this country between allopathy and homeopathy, most of us are completely in the dark about the possibilities that homeopathy holds. Here is a link to an online classes that you can take that can help you understand the risks involved in vaccinations and also the ways that these diseases can be treated IF you happen to get them!! http://www.nccn.net/~wwithin/vaccineclass.htm <http://www.nccn.net/%7Ewwithin/vaccineclass.htm> http://www.nccn.net/~wwithin/vaccineclass.htm Sorry to sound so passionate, but I believe that both of my boys were poisoned by vaccines, and I am very strongly against them!!

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 I just wanted to chime in about the MMR issue? Or risk of having another child with autism. I have 2 children, the oldest(6)has mild autism and the youngest(4), has developmental delay because of recurrent ear infections. When my son was born(he is the youngest) my daughter had yet to be diagnosed with autism. The only thing that I did differently was vaccinations. Once, I found out there could possibly be a link, my son did not receive any more. The last one he received was the chicken pox one. He has not received any MMR or anything after that. As far as I am concerned, he, nor my daughter will not receive any more. I truly believe that if he would have had all his vaccinations on schedule he would be adhd or have autism. I shudder to even think about it. My suggestion is to just research like crazy the pros and cons so that you and your family can come to a decision that is best for your situation. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Hi group!! Looks like I missed some posting but the MMR heading really caught my attention and I need to state my feelings on " again " !! My son was severely affected by his vac's, with the last round at 5 being the most obvious/severe and him ending up in hospital within minutes after!!(I compared his past shot records with medical records and was so shakin to realize that each time a new medical issue arose within a month of each round, the affects are usually slow/suttle and most dont connect the 2, vac's/medical issues) This time was hell for him for several months after and much improvement with natural supplementing/healing(still recovery needed). He was so bad he stopped growing, stopped walking (completely lost muscle strength/use), much pain daily, he was wasteing away befor our eyes. Also want to let everyone know that when it comes to vac's, there is a lot of denial out there in the medical community and therefor my son suffered much more than he should have!! So for those considering vac's, be prepared to deal with it pretty much alone if issues arise from them!!! I am extriemest when it comes to not vaccinating and dont want to upset or offend anyone. My son started to show sighns of blindness around 1mth, was diagnosed blind by 6mths(induced by 1st hospital vac B, I believe), during these few months, deteriating muscle strength, constipation(DTaP, worse with each round), Seizures started just after first MMR shot, kidney issues, nonverbal, gi damaged, severe spectrum, viral infections over and over, etc!! Proud to announce his vision slowly returned(healing from viral/toxin affects I believe)!!! I became obssesed with researching on the vac subject and have come to realize they are worthless when it comes to protecting against most disease and just is causing a medical epedimic in our country but making some very wealthy(2nd biggest money maker in the world, flouride is toxic and up there also). Please research on the Amish(they dont vaccinate) and are very healthy. This is due to pure foods(non chemical) and not vaccinating (toxins and viral). Our bodies are made to overcome these diseases naturally and then immune for life. They do have a child that is spectrum but this child was brought in to the community after being vaccinated. This concerns me due to I suspect vac affects/health may be contageous!! This has been shown in studies with families with spectrum children and then health issues triggering with close family members(just slow progression/not obvious). Measles is being found in the intestinal track of spectrum children(this is possibly from the vacs themselves). Please take time to research this subject on vac's and use high caution!! If vaccinating is a deciession, please strengthen the immune with lots of vitamin C, garlic etc. Here is an interesting article, pay close attention to section 6 and 7(is it possible polio still exsists???)!! Sorry to those who have had to listen to this more than once, but it was almost tragic for our family and is still hard for me to not talk about(this is how I have been able to deal with it)!! Wish someone one would have told me about all this 18yrs ago(oldest daughter, arthritis diagnoses as teen/gi issues, add, older son adhd, both had severe colic(1st obvious clue), vac induced etc.)Also, they succeeded in the bird flu scare and made billions again this year. The flu vac is worthless against flu(most all flu is bird disease anyways and the vac is only supposidly good against a couple of them(I doubt this also) and there is hundreds of flu's out there! Most I know who got the flu vac ended up very sick with flu anyways! If there was an epedimic desease arising then I could almost understand a possible need, even though I would strongly doubt the affects of.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 You will get better from Mumps measles and rubella without any treatment whatsever. A child in good health, well nourished and with medic al facilities available is extremely unlikely to die or suffer any ill effects whatsoever. In the undeveloped world these diseases are killers but not in the first world. Some children can suffer badly (and die) from measles encephalitis which is measles getting into the brain. But they are a small proportion. Your own body and immunity system is overwhelmingly likely to be able to deal with all three. Immigrants have nothing to do with anything.
