Vaccine Myths Debunked - Or have they been?

[Feuer Frei!]

Better diagnoses and other environmental toxins are the real culprits?

U.S. public health officials and physicians have been combating misconceptions about vaccine safety for over twenty years. They’ve had mixed success (http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/antivaccination-parents-dig-in-heels-even-after-receiving-medical-info/)

However, further reading is advised for the other side:

The CDC has been shunning the correlations between thimerosal and neurological disorders for a very long time. Although the FDA gave a two year deadline to remove the mercury based preservative from vaccines after the neurotoxin was banned in 1999, it still remains to this day in 60 percent of flu vaccines. A vaccine industry watchdog has now obtained CDC documents that show statistically significant risks of autism associated with the vaccine preservative, something the CDC denies even when confronted with their own data

Brian Hooker has had many of his studies retracted because they were conducted very poorly. He treated a case study as a cohort study and manipulated the data to fit his predetermined hypothesis. His hypotheses simply hold no merit and have repeatedly been proven false. In fact, most of the claims made by the health advice blog have no links at all. It makes many, many, many claims about everything from the toxicity of methylmercury, to documents proving the "CDC knew about the correlation between vaccines and autism". I'm having a very hard time finding any of these "facts" or documents they speak of. It's extremely difficult to take that website seriously at all, because it looks to be very heavily biased with little in the way of proof, links, or hard evidence.

There is no reputable data linking autism to vaccines. Considering that there is a minuscule amount of Thiomersal in vaccines, and that you don't receive very many vaccines, it would be a huge stretch to suggest that link without the consistent studies to prove direct correlation between vaccination and autism. Many people who want to prove this correlation tend to be parents of autistic children. Many of these parents believe that their child developed autism immediately after being vaccinated, which would be a very extreme, sudden, and unprecedented reaction to such tiny amounts of methylmercury, considering that eating certain foods expose people to even higher levels of mercury and no significant effects take place. Eating fish can expose you to much higher levels, depending on the fish and where it lived. It is simply too much of a stretch, with current data, to suggest that there is a correlation between vaccines and autism.

The real threat from mercury is from pollution, especially coal power plants. Mercury toxicity is most prevalent in places like china where they rely on coal power, and eating too much fish around there can cause mercury to build up faster than it can be expelled. In pregnant women this can cause birth defects. These are the sources that have the most prevalence to our health, not the tiny amounts we receive from the few vaccines we receive in our lifetimes.

Even if vaccines cause an unexpected reaction in , lets say 1 in a million and it saves the lives of 400 000 children in that million and keeps the other 600 000 from contracting anything.
In the end even cold hard numbers speak in favor of vaccinating.

Shhh i do not want to listen to experts anymore, i have my own opinion and prefer to be independent :O:
Vaccinating is socialist.

If there's one thing that makes me sick it's these anti-vaccine bimbos.

It is never advisable to base decisions on health risks on material posted by unidentifiable people on random websites which give no indication whatsoever as to who the publisher is.

Vaccinating is socialist.
You obviously have no clue as to the nature of the political backgrounds of the vaccines and their creators.
Vaccinating is Fascist. :stare:

Indeed, clean water is socialist.

Why, do you have to pay for vaccination or not?
If not it is socialist. :stare:
Or is it communist? :huh:
Mises says that national socialism and commmunism is the same anyway.

Since everyone claims to be an expert, I would replace the word 'experts' with the word 'facts'.

Allowing us to then define the problem called 'cognitive dissonance'. Which is to say: I see the facts, but Ive got my own ideas, so dont confuse me with those facts. Ive got my own take on reality. :D
