Would you refuse to vaccinate your child?

If you found out that certsan vaccines actually are harmful and have irreversible effects, for example I read that the poolio vac. is linked to autism. Not only that! this article informed me of how this same vac. is what cause the AIDS outbreak in Africa back in the days, apparently the monkey they used to make the vac. had some blood that was "bad" and it backfired on humanity. How sad.

The school system must allow any child entry, as long as you give a statement clarifying your choice is due to religious reasons.

Hate to be so unlady like but HELL NO...I wouldnt let my child die of a disease that could have been prevented

No.

Yes. They have tracking devices in some of the shots nowadays.

Too late for me. I've vaccinated my daughter and so far so good. Plus the number of peoples its helped far outweighs those of which it didn't. In the name of science, people will sacrifice.

And drinking pop is linked to all kinds of health problems, but will you deny that to your child? I trust my pediatrician to do what is right. If something comes up later, well we took a chance didn't we? You cannot stay holed up in the house the rest of your life because you may find out later that something might have been bad for you. LIVE !!!!

It is true. There seem to be connections. Life is full of risks, taking a vaccine is one but so is crossing the street.

Chances you get killed in a car accident going for the shot is higher than ill effects from a vaccine.

Be sure your kid is healthy and up to specs as far as height and weight go and he/she should be OK.

ask doctors, make some more research, and then decide depending on what you've found out - it is possible that what you read wasn't true, so try getting some more information ...

Well first of all the vaccinations are much more controled here in the US, than in Africa... the chances of getting a virus such as HIV would be extremely rare, if at all.

2nd, some vaccinations have been linked to causing Autism, but the chances are very very rare. It is much more harmful to NOT allow the vaccinations. And, the school system will not allow your child to attend without these vaccinations.

Ask your doctor about information on this.

Ok I read this book and it scared the crap out of me and I thought I'd rather have my daughter get chicken pox or whatever than all this other stuff. But I talked to my pediatrician about it and he told me how rarely these things happen and told me to look up books and articles on vaccines. I did and was very reassured that the book I had read was all rare worse case scenarios. Also if you want your child to attend public school they have to be vaccinated.

i know how brutal this world is but if you don't and kidmed hears about it - they may charge you with something - i would go with the flow or live around the things that expect you to raise your child a certain way - like if public school requires it - put 'em in private school!!!

i'd rather take the risk.

NO.

i think the side effects are blown way out of proportion.
there are some people that just are not happy if they're not complaining about something.

my brother had polio. and of those that did, he was fairly lucky. only a little facial paralysis was permanent.

I think you need to do some research about vaccinations instead of believing these far out theories. I man I grew up with got polio right before the vaccine came out. His mother had to put him through grueling, painful exercises every day. And he's worn a brace on one leg all of his life.

I have 2 grown sons and I made sure they received all their vaccinations. They both have children now and are making sure they are vaccinated.

Occasionally you will find a mishap, but in general, vaccinations are the best protection against some serious and life-threatening illnesses.

This article you read is full of bullshit. How sad that you took it seriously.
