I am trying to convince the school for my son immunization exemption but they do not accept moral conscience or religious belief (in God we trust). Since it is a private school I was told they only accept medical exemption but his doctor did not provide a letter? Since my son like the school where he is we are not ready to take him out or find another school. I want him to be where his hearts desire. I already went up & speak to the superintendent but to no avail. Is there any convincing evidence that vaccine is not the answer???
Thank you all for your input. From one of the sites that I go to National Vaccine Information Center, accordingly:
More vaccines may not make our children healthier.
In 1982, the Centers for Disease Control recommended 23 doses of 7 vaccines for children up to age six. Today, the CDC recommends that children take 48 doses of 14 vaccines by age six. With the recent addition of annual flu shots for all infants and children, the CDC now recommends that children get 69 doses of 16 vaccines by age 18.
In 1983, one in 10,000 children were diagnosed with autism. Today, 1 child in 150 develops autism.
One out of 6 American children is learning disabled. One in 9 has asthma and one in 450 is diabetic.
There are various chemicals in the ingredients and will mention 2 of them: (extract from Vaccine Information Service and you will find more) http://www.vaccination.inoz.com/ingredie.html
Formaldehyde: (Used in vaccines as a tissue fixative)
Aust. National Research Council: Fewer than 20% but perhaps more than 10% of the general population may be susceptible to formaldehyde and may react acutely at any exposure level. More hazardous than most chemicals in 5 out of 12 ranking systems, on at least 8 federal regulatory lists, ranked as one of the most hazardous compounds (worst 10%) to ecosystems and human health (Environmental Defense Fund).
It is not safe at ANY level.
National Academy of Science: There is no population threshold for irritation effects.
National Research Council: Fewer than 20% but perhaps more than 10% of the general population may be susceptible to formaldehyde and may react acutely at any exposure level.
Formaldehyde is oxidised to formic acid which leads to acidosis and nerve damage. Acidosis can be described as a condition in which the acidity of the body tissues and fluids is abnormally high. The liver and the kidneys may also be damaged.
Mercury: (Used in vaccines as a preservative.)
Before you say, "But haven't they removed mercury from the vaccines on the childhood vaccination schedule?" read this: Vaccines Are Not Mercury Free
Mercury is the second most poisonous element known to man (next to uranium and its derivatives). As illustrated in the above video, neurons are observed to disintegrate in its presence. It has also been found to cause changes to chromosomes.
The U.S. has known about the potential problems of thimerosal (compound in vaccines that contains mercury) for many years. The World Health Organization voiced concerns as far back as 1990. Mercury is a highly toxic element which does not easily leave the body. Once ingested, injected, or inhaled, it stays and accumulates. An infant can receive in one day’s doses of vaccines as much as the absolute maximum set by the W.H.O. for 3 months of exposure, but it is not safe at ANY level.
Thimerosal is listed as a recognized developmental toxicant as well as a suspected skin or sense organ toxicant by the Environmental Defense Fund1. The following was taken from a website affiliated with the National Institutes for Health2:
You know what, i love natural products,but when u have been overseas in 3rd world countries and see what their children are going through i think i will take my chances with immunizatin. Please go to africa or india or closer still to the U.S south america see what the children are suffering with and then come home and tell me immunization is dangerous for our children.Yes i do believe some people have side effects but.... the general population (includung my babies and grandbabies are benifitting from the immunizations.
'
Pooh ha me all u want i dont care but we have to try and protect our young from some of these horrible germs and if it means immunization i will take the chance
I understand you point Carmen. 3rd world countries are different. They do not have the means or access to natural health as we do in the US. They need the vaccines. Over here in the US, we have the access. No one says you shouldn't vaccinate. Just the ones that don't make sense. Here is my point...If you know all of the information and what vaccines can do inside of your babies, and you still vaccanite them, then that is an informed decision you can make.
If you simply strengthen their immune systems, there are some vaccines that they simply do not need. Their own bodies can prevent the illness. Most parents do not take their children's health into their own hands. They leave it in a doctors hands. How sad!
If parents do not make their kids' health a priority, then heck yes, vaccinate. But if you think certain vaccines are helping your kiddos, you are most certainly wrong.
Most people do not take their health in their own hands. Even while complaining about their doctor acting like he doesn't really care, they still trust the doctor absolutely and totally. I do not understand it.
As for flu shots being necessary, what ever happened to the "PANDEMIC" bird flu????????? Nothing, just like the computers in 2000.
