The Dangers of Excessive Childhood Vaccinations

Got this from Mercola.com
By Russell L. Blaylock, M.D.

"I find it interesting that there exist an incredible double standard when it comes to our evidence versus theirs. The proponents of vaccination safety can just say they are safe, without any supporting evidence what-so-ever, and it is to be accepted without question.

Yet, let me, or anyone else, suggest that excessive vaccination can increase the risk of not only autism, but also schizophrenia and neurodegenerative diseases, and they will scream like banshees – Where is the evidence? Where is the evidence?

When we produce study after study, they always proclaim them to be insufficient evidence or unacceptable studies.

More often than not, they just completely ignore the evidence. This is despite the fact that we produce dozens or even hundreds of studies that not only demonstrate the link clinically and scientifically, but also clearly show the mechanism by which the damage is being done -- even on a molecular level. These include cell culture studies, mixed cell cultures, organotypic tissue studies, in vivo animal studies using multiple species and even human studies. To the defenders of vaccine safety -- our evidence is never sufficient and, if we face reality -- never will be."

I shudder whenever I think of those 5-in-1 and 6-in-1 vaccines. To give a vax is bad enough, but to give ALL these live and attenuated viruses AND their toxin-laden preservatives and additives into the young, young body of an infant younger than 6 months old, and THEN to repeat the darn thing at least twice over the course of the next year or so?? I wouldn't do it to myself, much less imagine doing it to my kids.

I confess that there was a time when I took all of this for granted, which is why Ray has got all her jabs ON TIME up to about 9 months of age (but never the 5 or 6-in-1). It MUST be okay because

1. it's been done for so many years

2. the government says it's ok

3. I had them and I'M fine

4. my parents are nurses and they know what's best

5. (this comes as an afterthought) I don't know anyone or their kids who has autism, ADHD, dyslexia etc. Heck I'd probably never even HEARD of these disorders at the time.

Then I met the right people, who taught me to think for myself and question the "facts" and BOOM! it all changed. (So much for the "thinking-out-of-the-box" I was supposed to have learnt in school.) I learnt to trust my natural instinct (heh!) and make my own deductions based on my own research (ok I didn't do any studies but I read the studies of others).

It's tough converting the people around me. Most of them have the exact same mindset that I used to have (see points 1 - 4 above), and old habits die hard. Few like to break out of their comfort zone. Even fewer dare to challenge the powers that be, in Singapore. In the end, I'm satisfied if I can at least have the final say over my own children. Thanks to Amy, who really taught me that you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

So the US Government has conceded that Mercury does cause Autism

When will OUR government do the same? I have no idea how far behind we are on these issues (for example, do we still have thimerosal in our vaccines?) but I'm not counting on us being up-to-date enough.

*Flu shots contain thimerosal as a preservative.
* Thimerosal is 50% ethylmercury.

I am very thankful that Ray, who has had every recommended shot so far, shows no sign of adverse reactions. Ruvie has always been more sensitive to everything, so he's only just had the first 3 DTPs and we're now waiting for another year before the booster is administered.

In America, there are ways to legally avoid vaccines, such as the Religious Vaccine Exemption and the Philosophical Vaccine Exemption. What exemption grounds do we have? Allergy to thimerosal? Do we need a doctor's letter for that? I would really want Ruvie NOT to take the MMR. I am currently collating all the suggestions and experiences of other moms before me, and hoping I can find a way out of this situation.

I'm glad for one thing at least - HL supports me on this. It would be tough to choose to walk this way if I were alone.

UPDATE: Pat has reminded me that it's not just about mercury. What about Aluminium, another neurotoxin? If we're cracking down on all Aluminium cookware and such, what about Al in vaccines? I'm not sure whether this link is still working, but it's definitely worth reading.

And of course, there are the vaccines themselves. Live and/or attenuated viruses, all to be introduced into the immature immune system of a young child, preferably before the age of 2. Gulp.
