I agree that the possibility of over immunization in such a short period of time should be looked into. Most babies receive their first immunization at birth! (Hepatitis B) My children often became very ill after vaccinations. They would have high fevers and crying jags, and I definitely noticed that the kids were more likely to get secondary illnesses like strep throat right after having received multiple vaccinations. I have to admit, as much as I have advocated immunization in this thread, it scared the bejeezus out of me each time my children got vaccinated.
I remember my own experiences with vaccinations. I remember getting really sick with serious flu like symptoms. My muscles would get stiff and sore, and I would be fatigued for a few days. I guess it wasn't really serious, but I felt like CRAP. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Isparklaria Sent: Tuesday, January 13, 2009 9:00 AM To: Memphis Freethought Alliance Subject: Re: Has the link to autism and mercury in vaccines been debunked? What I don't understand is why so many vaccinations have to be administered in such a short time to very young babies. It seems to me that some vaccinations might be eliminated and the rest spread out more. Hey, but what do I know; I don't make make any money on this. What is relevant is that I am not an immunologist. At the very least studies need to be done, by an independent group, to determine if the vaccination schedule should be modified. It might also be good to get beyond statistics and try to figure which children, if any, might be harmed by over vaccination. Treating people as statisitics is not the way to go, if it is possible to do more. It would be a small consolation to the parents os a damaged child to know that they made the right choice for a hypothetical child but the wrong choice for their very real flesh and blood child.
