You obviously haven't done enough reading. AOL is one of the better search engines. Open you eyes and use your heart, listen to your instincts. Trust in yourself.

I would say it is actually giving it to them. Have you read up about HeLa cells.

Re: Vaccines and autism
I heard today on another board I frequent that some schools are closing down. Schools for the deaf. There aren't enough kids with hearing deficits to keep the schools going. Rubella vaccine programs are the cause.

Re: Vaccines and autism
The two strains of HPV included in this vaccine are known to be oncogenic, but at least another ten strains have been identified which are also oncogenic, so it is extremely possible that these may start causing trouble in the vacuum that the HPV vaccine leaves. A bit like the problem with cases of meningitis caused by pneumococcal infection which have risen since the HiB vaccine became widespread.
Time will tell on the HPV - but I know I wouldn't have it, nor would I give it to my 12yo.

The bonus really isnt worth the hassle. It used to be (in the last couple of years) less than £2K total.

No he himself withdrew his findings along with his research colleagues. I believe his was the only study that linked MMR to Autism
No one knows what causes Autism, at the moment general research names; genetic factors; age of parents; effect of environmental toxins on brain development in the womb; and growing use of IVF as contenders.
As someone who works with chidlren with disabilities and have a young child, I looked into this and sort opinions from people that worked in the field.
I felt I had a personal responsibility to immunise my child.
Perhaps we need to also be looking at what is in common household bug killers and plastics. Interestingly many chemicals sold in Australia are banned in Europe (source: www.choice.com.au)

A lovely lady sent me this link

An interesting example of self-reporting...well, in my eyes
I work in a hospital. When taking a history from patients, we have to (and want to!) find out about about any medication allergies or serious side affects, and any allergies generally. This week I had someone who was reporting an allergy to cucumber. They hadn't eaten a cucumber for 15 years because the last time they did, it gave them indigestion.
Some people will report anything. This person was strongly believed that this was clearly an allergy to cucumber. Just the same way that someone who developed a cold or a runny nose or a headache a day after a vaccination might do.
Don't get me wrong. Self-reporting of vaccine-associated incidents is very, very important.
For the record, I definitely WOULD give my children (if I had them) vaccinations, including the cervical cancer vaccines. I'd prefer to give Gardacil over Ceravax as it covers more strands of the virus. I still dont understand why males are vaccinated and females are not. I suspect that it will eventually be licensed for males as well.

So maybe the global recession is here for a good reason. Hopefully the natural disasters will destroy Monstanto's soy and canola crops and every other big food companies GM crops around the world.
With regards to the parabens - well those are everywhere. I guess we'll have to go live in the bush.

Re: Vaccines and autism
There has never been a study that has conclusively proven a link between the MMR and Autism.
Prof Wakefield's study was too small and no other funded study has been completely impartial. I think the only things that Prof Wakefield's study showed was the need for further studies into the effects of mass immunisation, especially considering the 5 in 1 vaccine that is being introduced, and the need for increased funding toward Autism diagnosis and treatments. Unfortunately Atism diagnosis tends to occur around the age of 18-36 months when children are expected to become much more social and active, exactly when the MMR is scheduled. Although I don't doubt that there is some kind of trigger, but I do think that the greater amount of children who have the MMR and not Autism compared the ones that have it and are diagnosed Autistic speak for themselves.

I have to get ready for work - I'll try to hunt out some of my old posts later, where I explained that the Wakefield "work" was used as a teaching resource in my first semester studying to be a Dr. We taught "How To Read A Paper" (this is also the name of a book) .We had to "critically analyse" the Lancet paper.

Re: Vaccines and autism
Peer review only came about BECAUSE of the Wakefield paper. There wasn't much robust peer reviewing of medical doctors prior to that....UK doctors had never been trained in how to do this.

Quack quack quack.
Now I know why they call them quack because that is what they are.

Re: Vaccines and autism
I'm curious to know what foods you eat. Not one of them will not have been genetically modified. I guarantee it. I wonder if you understand the term genetically modified. How do you think that this has been happening for millenia? Hint....and for the record, I first came across this through my mother's flower-growing uncle. He bred THE most beautiful daffodils. Multicoloured. In the 1960s.
