A comment on the polio no longer exsisting due to the vaccine- WRONG- polio was just about extinct when the vaccine was made. Polio does still exsist, just has a new name in America... Aspetic meningitis and Coxsackie virus. Why the name change? Still billions are being made on a Polio vaccine.  Polio actually had an increase after the first mass inoclulations. Polio was on the decline befor vaccinations in the US and in European countries. When the vaccine was started, some countries refused to use them but in affect there polio rates continued to decrease at about the same rate as the US. Also consider the African green monkeys used for making polio vac, they was infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), a virus closely related to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Some believe this is the same virus that mutated into humans. Believe it or not, polio rarely is permanent and usually the affects are gone within a few months. I have personally watched in the last 10-15yrs, our country develop a, what would be nearly considered an epedimic with our youth, deseases, illnesses, spectrum disorders and on and on. My children being a part of this epedemic. To those that are saying that fear is the cause of non vaccinating- DARN WRITE IT IS!! Fear is what I feel, hopelessness and a broken spirit for the thousands of innocent children that have no choice/say in what is being done to there health! They are suffering and we are letting it happen!!  And just because the damage isnt instant doesnt mean it isnt there!! I have 2 children that the affects was suttle slow and 1 that was within minutes. The norm is suttle, can take even years to manifest. Seeing what it did to my youngest caused this mom to madly research for over a year and was shocked to what I learned. I went and compared medical records with vac records and was so devistated to see the connection with each round and every new medical issue. Wish my FEAR was befor I let them vac my children

My child had a reaction to vaccines--she went limp and had a 104 temp and the ER docs dismissed out of turn w/o testing the notion that it was the vaccine she was given the day before. So now we must claim religious exemption in my state to avoid further harm. We now eat as healthy as possible and avoid most forms of modern medicine, most of the time.

 I was harmed during my treatment for childhood allergies. I was sensitive to the OTO meds (red tinged vision, sun sensitive--etc) and developed asthma, t hen they started talking digitalis and a naturopath saved me from that at age 13. He basically (with a few other bits) said stop taking all meds NOW, do a cleanse fast and stay away from those dox!
Never had to go to the hospital again for allergies after that (before it was a bi-weekly event at min), my asthma vanished  and further I was able to eat 99% of what I was supposedly allergic to!!

By RISONG.  I cannot understand why the medical profession persists with the view that vaccination is scientifically based, when the real basis of the immune system function has been known for at least the last  ten years and is documentated by thousands of publications.  I refer to glycoscience which has shown that the immune system works by reading  glycoprotein encoded messages (and hundreds of thousands of different messages can be encoded) on cell surfaces,  The immune system must have accurate internal communication to function correctly.  This occurs at a cellular level.  Cells must 'talk' to other cells.  Their language is written using simple sugars which combine with proteins to form glycoproteins.  Of the 200 monosaccharides that occur naturally in plants, 8 have been found to be components in cell surface glycoforms.  Human mothers milk has three of these saccarides but only two of the eight are commonly found in foods we eat.  While the body has the capacity to manufacture all of these monosaccarides from glucose, the conversion process is complicated, requiring energy and time as well as numerous enzymes and vitamins.  If you can obtain them from your diet in fruit and vegetables etc so much the better.  All of this can be found on www.glycoscience .com.  Vaccination disrupts the real immune process by poisoning the cell to cell communication.  Why on Earth don't the medical profession get with their own research and publications.  I'm afraid the answer is that the drug companies have a vested interest in people being ill. 

Collins did you watch this video? Have you done any vaccine research ? I have spent hours reading the medical literature, and NO I would not give my kids the smallpox vaccine even in the event of an outbreak. The vaccine could cause an outbreak!

BTW, I've had the measles and I'm not blind or sterile.

I understand people who read the literature and then make a choice that differs from mine. What I don't understand or respect are people who just push the pro-vaccine argument without having researched the issue.

I am not alive and healthy today because of vaccines. They did not cause the decline in infectious diseases. When was the last time you heard of someone getting scarlet fever?

I did not make a decision based on fear. I made a well thought out and planned decision based on evidence. I am not afraid of vaccines. I just don't see any evidence for safety or efficacy. Show me some and I'll vaccinate tomorrow.
