There have been a few events I've been meaning to blog about lately, but haven't gotten to yet.
A couple of weeks ago a friend and I drove up to DC for a rally, with littlest ones in tow. What made us drive more than 3 and a half hours? in the middle of the night? in thunderstorms?
It was this GREEN OUR VACCINES rally.
I first learned what was in vaccines when my older son was about 2. I had been doing research on some of his allergic reactions and stumbled upon some info that made me pause. MSG in his shots? huh? Could that be why he now gets a rash from ingesting it? And that was to be the least of the concerns to come up. I had a blind trust in doctors. (Perhaps the same blind trust that led me to believe my doctors would never give me drugs in my iv against my wishes and without even my knowledge just two years earlier during labor. )So, that blind trust that led me to believe that they would not administrate harmful substances to children. Or maybe it just didn't even occur to me that I needed to question what was in the vaccinations. After all, why would there be toxic substances in shots that are mandated by the government and given to newborn babies, infants and children on a regular basis? I still don't know the answer to that, but I do know that there ARE in fact toxic substances like aluminum, and mercury etc. (take a look at the flu shots, even today in 2008) Amounts of toxic substances injected directly into the bloodstream.
It's hard to believe, but that doesn't mean it isn't true.
Please, educate before you vaccinate. Read every bit of the vaccine inserts. visit the cdc website and see the ingredients for yourself. With so many allergies today, do we need to be injecting egg derived vaccines, MSG, preservatives etc into our babies (or ourselves for that matter!) Vaccinating or not vaccinating is certainly your choice, but be aware. Does the risk outweigh the benefit? Start by looking at the Hepatitis B shot given to newborns and go from there. It is a shot that is given across the board to all infants for a disease that is of no risk to MOST infants. It is just easier for them to give it to all babies and catch the few that might be at risk, rather than identifying the babies who are at risk. If you have Hep B or a family member does, baby might be at risk. the other risks are drug related and related to sexual transmission. Last time I checked those were not issues with infants, yet they are still vaccinated at birth.
You've probably read how the autism/vaccine myth has been debunked. Ah, we'll leave that discussion for another day. But regardless of whether mercury itself was to blame the fact remains that a huge number of children are now suffering with this affliction, and the common tie is vaccinations. This article is worth a read, as it points out that a certain group of children may be sucsceptible to harm by vaccination while others do fine with it.

Do you want to find out which group your child belongs in? More research needs to be done on this topic, but so far the only research being done is by the drug companies, and it is very incomplete. This is why when you read the package inserts, you will note that the drug companies usually can't tell you whether it has been tested for carcinogenity, or amongst infants, or amongst pregnant women, or the immunocompromised etc.

If the links don't work, you may need to cut and paste...
One very important link to add here, on the ingredients of vaccines. Straight from the CDC website. It is a little hard to wade through all the documents there and find what you are looking for, so here is the direct link. Many people incorrectly believe that thimerosal has been removed from all vaccines. That is incorrect and the CDC website shows that.
Also, flu shots which are now recommended for babies, children etc contain plenty of it.
What may become even more important in the future is that these vaccines have aluminum in them. I don't know if anyone has been following studies in the last decade about aluminum and Alzheimers, but it is definitely something to keep your eye on.
