immunisations

[principessa76]

most anti vaccine sites will be educational as we all get PRO vaccine stuff rammed down our throats from the moment we find out we are pregnant.. im yet to come across a doctor to say "you can have xyz with these ingredients in it by the way X is also commonly known as ABC which we all know is very toxic to humans, but you should still allow me to inject this directly in to your newborns body!" come on! doctors DO NOT tell the whole story.
my DS was uptodate until he turned 4 my DD has not had any vaccines. she has never had a communicable disease yet and she goes to childcare but of course it could only be her fault chicken pox, whooping cough has gone through there....
seriously look after your children, keep them healthy rather then pumping them full of crap "just in case"...

Sounds like a real conspiracy doesn't it? I don't think so. Doctors immunize their own children - do you REALLY think they would do this if it wasn't what they thought was the best thing for their child. Doctors should not be painted as the bad guys here. All doctors I know (both as friends and professionally) are wonderful caring people who have studied extremely hard to get where they are and go above and beyond for their patients and genuinely care. They're certainly not in it for the money.... for the amount they study and the hours they put in they don't earn anywhere near enough.

I am not going to express my personal opinion about immunization here. I will say that you need to be very careful when reading research articles and quoting them. In order to decide if research is credible you need to be able to critically analyze the data, how it was collected and the methods used in the research. Critiquing one research article takes several hours. In order to do this properly you need to have studied data and statistical analysis at university - as part of their many years of training GPs and specialists study this.

FWIW I questioned DS's paediatrician about MMR being linked to autism - I had watched a documentary about it several years ago and had some concerns. It was explained to me in great detail how that research was flawed. Although the findings "appeared" to show a link, how the data was gathered and analyzed by the researcher meant the results were meaningless.
