Where do you stand on vaccinations?

Ashleigh - posted on 04/06/2010

We are on a delayed schedule with my son, he will be getting his first shots at his 2 yr checkup. This was a big debate with me and my husband's family. I am very against vaccines, I was never vaccinated and I've been outside of the U.S. numerous time, even to 3rd world countries. My grandfather almost died from receiving vaccines and so the whole family has stayed away from them. I had no problem going to school, it is a quick signature and you are done.



If I had my way, my son wouldn't have any vaccines at all! There are some nasty chemicals in them, and in my opinion they aren't necessary to a happy healthy life. I know people will disagree with me, but that is my opinion.

Wikipedia isn't exactly a scholarly source :(

I hope everyone knows that vaccination do not equal immunity. My nephew and my friends dd have the measles right now and both of them had their MMR. I have done my research and the conclusion I came to is that I am more scared of the potential side affects of these understudied vaccines than I am of the diseases they prevent. It is a rare thing to die from the measles and in fact albeit most of our parents had them and they survived just fine. To me there are rare cases of harmful side affects in vaccines and there are rare cases of harmful side affects from the diseases. Everyone is going to see things differently and I am certainly not trying to change anyone's mind. This is the way I look at this situation.

Depends on what vaccine you are on about I mean are you worried about the mmr vaccine because I can assure you that the doctor who came up with the stupid idea of "MMR causes Autism in children"" Was an idiot. I have done so much research on Autism and the children have the gene its genetic its not down to some vaccine it just does not become apparent that they have it until they are 15-18 months old. Having argued this with a number of people they still go onto think that the MMR is going to cause Autism..... Guess what its in their from the moment the child was conceived like downs syndrome or another genetic illness.



I for one am very greatful for vaccinations... why?

Even though my daughter broke out from a very itchy and painful viral reaction to her very first set of vaccinations, it was better than risking she get whatever she was being immunized against. The problem with vaccines is that most parents only want to think about their child and if their child gets it; if nobody got vaccines, it would only take one child to cause every child in any given community and beyond to get whichever disease was so easily preventable.

Much like any surgery; such as a tonsilectomy, appendectomy or the such, there are risks and benefits. To me, the benefits of my daughter not get some serious disease outweigh the risks. If you choose not to vaccinate your child, that is your choice and I'm sure you have reasons, just as I have reasons why I want my daughter to be vaccinated. Good luck to all parents on this hard and controversial subject! But as for me, my daughter gets her next round on Thursday!

Angela - posted on 04/06/2010

My dd is 2&1/2 and she has never been vaccinated. I'm not against the idea of vaccines but I would like to fight for safer more effective vaccines and much more testing before vaccines go out on the market. I also would like to see private organizations that are not "paid" for their decisions be the ones doing the studies on vaccines, not organizations like the CDC that are biased towards money.



I'm not against vaccinating my child just to be clear and I don't think it is bad for a mother to choose to vaccinate or choose not to vaccinate. I hope that families will continue to be able to exercise this right to choose. It is a very hard decision to make and as long as that family has done extensive research to support their decision then I think their decision is best for their family.

I think they are a good thing ... i have heard many stories about stuff that has happened to children bcuz they didnt have the normal vaccines... the only vaccines i am concerned about are "swine flue" just the whole way it hasnt been tested properly and is being pushed on people puts me off it ... ive heard of many miscarriages related to getting the "swine flue" vaccine...

I just wish every parent would be openminded enough to research the truth about vaccinations, instead of just taking the word of doctors. It frustrates me because the information is out there, but for some reason people either just don't know about it or aren't interested. Before letting your most precious little thing in your life get jabbed with a needle filled with garbage, just make an informed decision. I've read many books, watched dvds & videos, visited websites so i know that this isn't just someone making these things up. Also heaps of doctors have come forward, so the information is coming from reliable sources.

The most reliable information I found came from a dvd I bought, where where 15 people, including Dr. Viera Scheibner (a PhD researcher), five medical doctors, other researchers, and parents' experiences, reveal what is really going on in relation to illness and vaccines. You can watch it here. http://vodpod.com/watch/2592128-vacc...e...



These are just a few of the facts about vaccines.

*The main advances in combating disease over 200 years have been better food and clean drinking water. Improved sanitation, less overcrowded and better living conditions also contribute.

*The dangers of childhood diseases are grossly exaggerated in order to ensure mass compliance.

*There is no scientific evidence to support vaccination. The only true immunisation is natural. Natural immunity depends upon health not disease. Antibodies are not a measure of immunity. Vaccination isn't immunisation. We are taught to believe that vaccines are safe and effective in preventing diseases, but are shielded from reports that come to opposite conclusions.

*The pharmaceutical and vaccine industry is a billion dollar industry.

*Aborted foetal cells, mouse brains, calf skin, and monkey tissues aare just a few ingredients in vaccines.

*Vaccines depress and disable brain and immune function. Unbiased scientific investigation has shown vaccinations to be a causative factor in many illnesses including SIDS, autism, seizures, mental retardation, hyperactivity, dyslexia, etc.

*The high rate of adverse vaccine reactions is being ignored and denied by conventional medicine.

*The diseases the vaccines apparently have reduced, were already reducing before the vaccines were introduced. They usually show a graph of the disease reducing after the vaccines were given, but fail to show the graph before this date. Examples- http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-a...

Why shouldnt kids get their Vaccinations it didnt do us any harm to have them my 2 kids have had all theirs up todate and when they are due the boosters i will take them for them as well.. They have done lots of discussions over mmr but my kids were fine and i would recommend them to any new mother for their kids

You DONT have to be vacinated to enter school, preschool or any educational training. Yes you need to show your paper work to show if they have or have not but this is only for the fact that if there is an out break the non-vacinated children get sent home FIRST! It against human rights for children to be declined an education based on their bodies been jammed and pumped full of.......?? Do you really know what it contains? I would love to know who has done research about this before making the decision.

i also dont agree with leannes comment about aussies not getting the choice i am an aussie and i have 3 friends that have chosen not to get there children vaccinated and there kids are attending public schools so im unsure what information you have

Rachael - posted on 04/05/2010

thanks thea reeece if you read my post properly i HAVE done my research and my father is in the medical profession. i said that COMMON side affects are sore arm and stoach ache.EXTREMELY RARE side affects are serious like for injections for diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, hep b polio and hib can have servere allergic reaction or HHE (Hypotonic-hyporesponsive episode) which is where baby may show signs of limpness, and be unresponsive this can only last up to 36 hrs and follow up research on children who have had this shows no longterm neurological or other side affects.

for rotovirus COMMON is fever diarrhoa, vomiting EXTREMELY RARE is anaphylaxis which is a servere alergic reaction.

for pneeumococcal disease COMMON is pain redness and a low grade temp EXTREMELY RARE is again allergic reaction and if you look at the figures which are given to you at any decent GP will tell you that these EXTREMELY RARE side affects are like 1 in 100, 000000 and so one i think my point is made please read my posts before you insult me and again the good outways the bad and selfish and stubborn is MY OPINION i never said it was fact

Shauna - posted on 04/05/2010

I feel that only life threatening and baby initial vaccines are necessary. My daughter will not be getting the chicken pox, flu, H1N1 or Gardisil vaccines. they haven't even done a proper study on Gardisil or H1N1. Children should be allowed to get sick sometimes to build up their immune system properly.

Leanne - posted on 04/05/2010

In Australia we don’t have a chose we have to get our children fully immunized. The only way our children can go to school without being immunized is if the doctor gives a certificate to state that your child has allergies. I have quoted below what a website said.



“When enrolling your child in school, a school-entry immunization certificate is required. This certificate records if your child's immunizations are up to date. Once your child has been fully immunized, the Australian Childhood Immunization Register will automatically send you a statement by post, which can then be used as a school entry certificate.”



I’m not giving my option on the topic but I’d thought I’d say the Australian Families don’t get the chose.

Lyndsi - posted on 04/05/2010

My Sd has had all vaccines and her little sister (ours together) has not had any. The oldest has been in and out of the dr. office since the day she had her first shot. We believe in doing as much research as you possibly can making an educated decision. Ours has been to at least wait until the youngest is 2 to start her on vaccines and even then we may not get any. In most states you can go to DHS and get a paper signed that says your religion doesn't believe in vaccines to give to the schools, which is what we will do. Only stipulation is she won't be able to attend school if there is a breakout of a disease. My advise is to educated yourself as much as possible from both sides! Good luck!

Pamela - posted on 04/05/2010

The way I see it, we need them. If it makes you have the illness, that's how it builds up your immune system to it. Avoiding things, your blood cells wouldn't know what to do when it shows up, so we need them to build our immune systems up to fight off the illnesses.

Anne - posted on 04/05/2010

A lot of people seem to be saying that the only downside to vaccinations is mild nausea and a sore arm. That isn't what people are worried about. They are concerned about severe and or life changing conditions for example the wide array of debilitating auto-immune disorders and the autism spectrum disorders. There is no need to inject 5 or 6 serious diseases into a new baby at once. That certainly puts an unnatural load on the immature immune system. We did not have so many vaccinations growing up - the number of shots is always going up and the number of multiple vaccines is too. Whether or not these vaccinations are truly responsible for these diseases we just don't know. My job is a research scientist and no real scientist would claim that they know they are perfectly safe. The results aren't in yet. So people's concerns are valid. Some of these serious diseases are no longer present in the western world and so there is very little risk of catching them unless you are travelling to affected regions, some are obviously not necessary until the child is older, some are not proven to give any immunity. Others offer very good protection against dreadful diseases. So everyone needs to think about what is really necessary for their child and no-one should be judjing other parents for this hard decision.
The preservatives can contain hazardous materials which is another consideration. Mercury free versions should always be available and you should check that is what you are getting. Mercury is a neurotoxin and stays in the brain for ever. Other suspensions contain allergens which you need to check - so a lot to consider - not just a simple case of a sore arm.

Jill - posted on 04/05/2010

all for it. I think you are putting your child at more of a risk not to get them vaccinated. I see no harm and have asked many pediatricians.

Leisa - posted on 04/05/2010

I live in Queensland Australia, and to go to school here you dont need to have your vaccines. My sister chose NOT to get them for her two kids and they are very healthy 10 and 7 year olds. My step-daughter is fully vaccined and she is a very healthy 7 year old and my 8 mth old I have chosen to get her vaccines and she is very healthy. I think it is a choice that parents make. Not doctors, nurses, friends, family or anyone just the parents...its up to you. Do research. I chose to get my daughter done because I couldnt live with myself if she got really sick from something I could of controlled. Its a personal choice. It is VERY common here not to get your child vaccinated.

Thea - posted on 04/05/2010

I think you have to take that in to consideration when you make your decision to do vaccines. The H1N1 has not been out long enough to know what the side effects are and even the ones that have been out for a long time are still showing new side effects in adults. Do all the research on the vaccines before you put anything into your baby. Even if it takes you a couple of years to decide. It would be better to do them late if you find them to be safe than to give them on time and find out they are very harmful!

Ann - posted on 04/05/2010

My children have been vaccinated but to set the record straight, a child does not have to be vaccinate to enter the school system , it just has to be properly documnted that they that the family has moral, spiritual, or religous beliefs that kept they from agreeing with the vaccines

Thea - posted on 04/05/2010

selfish and stubborn? What are you talking about! Its the same reasons you just mentioned why you were giving them that some withhold doing vaccines! Protecting and keeping harmful things out of your babies body!!! Wow you think the only side effects are a sore arm and a little stomach ache? Do your research!

Rachael - posted on 04/05/2010

me again im sure people dont chose to do it because there peds told them to do it they chose it because they want the best for there child and they want to protect them thats you job as a parent to protect your child most of the risk factors are like 1 in 100000000 or 10 in 500000000 it wouod be real unlucky to to be that 1!!!!!!



and if you look at what you are vaccinating against these are all deadly virus or diseases not just the common flu or stomach bug things like polio or mumps or pneumococcal meningitis or rotavirus, or hep b i personally would rather a baby with a little nausea or a small rash than any of these

Rachael - posted on 04/05/2010

can i also add there is a risk whith medicines you take aswell but you still take them and if you go for surgury and go under anestetic threr is a risk you could die but you still chose to do it because the goiod out weighs the bad my personal opinion is that people that chose to not vacinate are selfish and stuborn this is not an attack on anyone it is my opiniion

Rachael - posted on 04/05/2010

if you research and read some information regarding vaccines there are minute risks with everything but id rather my baby have a tummy ache for 24hrs or a sore arm for 24hrs then have them die of a horrible disease because i didnt get them vaccinated

Angie Karst, what a cruel, misinformed thing to say, that only people who blindly get all the vaccines care for their children.

Parents who choose not to have generally done all the research, and weighed the benefits and drawbacks to vaccines. I've noticed that the majority of people who do get the full vaccine schedule as is, only did it because of a doctor's recommendation or because everyone else is doing it, rather than finding out for themselves what the best choice is. Some parents do a ton of research and still choose to vaccinate, but most of those I've talked to have not.

BTW, read the CDCs website. Even they say that the they don't know the full bad effects of vaccines, but still tell everyone to get them.

Amy - posted on 04/05/2010

Our 13 mth old daughter is on an alternative schedule for her vaccines and some of them she just wont be getting. When she goes to school or daycare, we'll sign the vaccine waiver so she can attend. She's the healthiest kid we know, been sick only twice. The pediatrician we first had when Emma was born told us we were stupid for questioning vaccines. He actually said that to our faces. We found it hard to believe someone that was pushing vaccines so harshly, so we did our own research n came to our own conclusions, as should everyone else. It's every parents own choice. I dont think they should do it (or not do it) just because a ped tells them to/not to.

Liz - posted on 04/05/2010

Jennifer - thats false that there is mercury in the H1N1 vaccination. That was in an early report when people were freaking out about the disease. It's since been proven false.

Liz - posted on 04/05/2010

Wow Hot Topic -
I have done alot of research on all the vaccinations that my daughters need to get, and what i need to get as an adult.
I agree with all the vaccines, and keep myself, my husband, and my daughters on a regular vaccine schedule.
I did alot of research for the H1N1 - and i noticed that alot of people on here have really inaccurate information about the vaccine's. They didnt just rush it out, the H1N1/ Swine Flu has been around since the 60's, the variety that we have right now in 09/10 is a super bug - that means its stronger then the one from the 60's. They had the vaccine's back then, they just revamped it for us to use right now.

The best way to think of it is as a stronger flu vaccine, thats it - same risks as the flu vaccine which are a very small percentage. That doesnt mean that you should may attention to the risks, just that they are a very small percentage.

It really bothers me all the opinions out there that arent based on research at all. I have no problem with different opinions other then mine, i just hate it when they spout of their opinion like its fact, or that they have science behind them.

Darlinda - posted on 04/05/2010

there are alot of rumors about vaccinations and how they lead to autism and other things. I myself only got my little one what she needs all other ones i choose not to get for her. now i am not bashing vaccinations but look at how many we had growing up and the spike of autisic children now that there has been a spike in the number of vaccinations has increased. i did ask my childs docotor about them and he told me two things, one that it was still in research that the all those shots in such a little about of time is causing the uprise in mental status like autism and second he said that the one that have been around for years that he would advise me on getting them for her. My child is seven now and she is a bright and happy little girl hardly ever gets sick, compared to some of my friends kids who has had all there shots they are constantly sick. We all have to be careul of what we put in our kids body as well as ours. So that decision is up to you the mother.

pretty much everyone gets some form of hpv in their life, most its just minor and nothing serious. my mom had to have a hysterectomy due to cancer and can no longer have kids. she didnt know she had it until she had her last baby about 6 years ago.

Jamie - posted on 04/05/2010

Kristen, I thought that I would let you know the HPV vaccine is given to pre-teens for several reasons. Children are becoming sexually active at a younger age now, and although your child may wait, the HPV vaccine must be given to a virgin. One in four people now have the human pappiloma virus, which is the leading cause of cervical cancer in women. This cancer is very non-discriminate, one of my best friends cannot have children because at the age of 16 had cervical cancer that already spread. She had a full hysterectomy at 17. HPV is also the cause for genital warts, which they believe now the vaccine can prevent that. The vaccine is a set of three and although I only have a son, if I were to have a daughter I believe that around 12 or 13 I would talk to her about the risks and we would decide together. This disease though is worth trying to prevent is possible.

Kristen - posted on 04/05/2010

My husband and I have done a lot of research, and we felt that we needed to delay vaccinations. My daughter turns 2 next month, so we will start then, and when we do vaccinate it will be selectively. I think that pumping a child full of three (or more) vaccines at once is asking for trouble. The ones we get for her will be singles and spread out. As far as H1N1, flu vaccines, chicken pox and the HPV vaccine, I really don't think that they are necessary. My hubby and I both got H1N1 this year and my daughter stayed completely healthy, not even a sniffle! Chicken pox never hurt us (and as long as you watch them you shouldn't have complications. We are not quite to the HPV age yet, but I think it is ridiculous to give a a pre teen an STD vaccine! This is just my opinion though. Parents should research for themselves!

Nicole - posted on 04/05/2010

I don't know how I feel as a whole. I have 4 children and my first 3 children were all vaccinated on schedule. I of the 3 has an Autism Related Disorder, but the other 2 do not. With this fourth child, just to be on the safe side, we have decided to change the way in which we vaccinate him. I don't know if Autism can be linked to vaccinations and, truthfully, vaccinations saves lives, so we are still going to vaccinate, just on a different schedule. Again, as a "just in case" idea.

My point: It is your child, educate yourself about any medical intervention/technology that is being offered to your child and then do whatever you feel is best.

Allyne - posted on 04/05/2010

I don't vaccinate and think it is a shame that there are so many people out there who rely on advice from other people and don't go and do the research and make up their minds for themselves. I don't hink it is bad either way, to vaccinate or not but I do think that people hold false beliefs that vaccines are completely safe and like any other medical treatment you have the right to way the pros and cons for yourself and make your own decision. This is not a communist country, vaccines are not compulsory people!

Meaghan - posted on 04/05/2010

I have doubts about many things the medical society claim we "need" in order to boost our health. I personally do not take medications or shots if I can help it. I did get the chicken pox shot about 2 years ago because I was working in childcare and as I got pregnant I found out I am still not immune. I have to say I will do my research and my son will get a few of the shots but I do not believe we need to pump our new generation full of who knows what? Our immune systems should be able to flourish on their own. I was in B.C. this fall when the big H1N1 scare was on and I had many people tell me to get the vaccination. What for? In my opinion it was rushed out far too fast and where is the test information? I'll take my chances, my immune system works very well thank you and I am not about to get a shot just because I'm told to.

Michelle - posted on 04/05/2010

The problem is that vaccines DO have side effects people. Don't pretend that it's give them or risk your child's life cause that is not the case. Especially chicken pox. They don't know if that vaccine even will provide protection against shingles in the future. They won't know till the current group of kids reaches adulthood. And don't forget all the kids who GET chicken pox because of the vaccine or even worse some kids get SHINGLES as children!!!! That never happens with the normal progression of the disease. We are vaccine crazy in the country. We vaccinate all kids before the age of one because most people who don't have the money stop going to the doctor after 1 year of life. So the CDC knows they have to get as many babies vaccinated before one year as possible. So the guidelines, as always, are set up for the minority and leave the majority to deal with the consequences. Same with labor and delivery. But I am not going to get started on that can of worms!!

Lighann - posted on 04/05/2010

My daughters have had all their proper vaccinations done and I haven't had any problems. I want my children to be protected against whatever they need to be and I'm glad they have one for chicken pox because I know when I had them I was miserable and if I can spare my daughters that, then a little shot is okay by me!! Of course to each her own :)

Ashley - posted on 04/05/2010

there are always going to be different opinions on this subject. In the end getting the vaccines would really be the best unless your child is allergic to one of the ingredances in the vaccine... it has proven to help more then harm including the flu vaccine... the reason the recomend it at 6 months is because some are to young to fight it and have died from it. look at my personal experiance my uncle got polio 6 months before the doctors were able to give it to him, he was a bitter man seeing that something could have prevented it. and if you look at the data you have never seen a case of tetnus because doctor make sure to give the vaccine to everyone... sorry for the length but it is so important to get vaccines that could help and if you dont you'll feel so bad that getting them a shot or two could have prevented all the pain they are in

Michelle - posted on 04/05/2010

We do all vaccines but flu and chicken pox. We are different in that we don't start any vaccines till 6 months of age and we only do 2 injections at a time. By age 2 they caught up on all their shots and with 3 kids have never had a problem. We also nurse for at least the first 6 months so they have immunity from me. And we delay MMR until age 2. But that's just us. I think they are important. I just don't agree with flooding a newborns body with all those vaccines starting at minutes after birth.

Bobbi - posted on 04/05/2010

such a hot topic... my first daughter,who was developing normal(crawling at 6 months walking at 9 months and head few words) was vaccinated on schedule until 15 months of age when she received het MMR shot, she became a totally different child, lost the language she was using, quit making eye contact, wanted no interaction with no one just sat all alone in a daze and would throw a tantrum if ou tried to interact with her, she was dx'd with autism at 2 yr 7 months old. She is now 6 yrs old Non-verbal- Very aggressive and has many allergies (Is on a wheat/gluten milk/casein and soy free diet) and numerous Health problems.. i was also 7 months pregnant when we received the dx and my now three year old has only recieved shots at birth.
I believe everyone needs to do there own re search on this subject and go with what they feel and I also do recomend the book by Dr. Sears.. if i knew then what i know know I would have waited on getting my first daughter vaccinated with so many vaccinations at once..
BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE OUT THERE AND WHAT THEY DECIDE!!!

Okay first of all kids do NOT have to get any vaccines to go to school. There is a vaccine waiver that they give you if you ask for one at the enrollment office. 2nd of all if you are going to do vaccines you should not depend on any one else to do the research. Its not their children its yours! I do research this topic and am still! Doctors make mistakes all the time and your kids cant do anything for them selves so do it for them...That is all i will say for now....

I totally approve with vaccines. The only vaccines my children don't get is the flu and H1N1. My son got really sick with the flu shot and never went back to get the other 2 sets. H1N1 came out way too fast to have a good study/research on it and when it 1st came out there was alot of controversy on it..
