[quote=Eleanora1;18204922]Let's review:

Most vaccines make a very tiny profit for the manufacturer.

Swine Flu Vaccine Makers to Profit $50 Billion a Year | WeeksMD after the vaccines comes the REAL big profits for the pharmacies, selling synthetic medicines to try and control, and alleviate ongoing problems and ailments as a result.....to the guy who sent me a private message to call me a moron, I'd rather be a moron than you!!

E-vile!

All the paranoid assertions to the contrary won't change those facts.
No, I disagree, they would make a LOT less money if they stopped vaccinating people. Who would buy all the cold and cough medicines??, who would buy all the medicines to help them tolerate the auto-immune diseases they suffer???Shots are not a one time deal, in fact more and more boosters are being required to maintain the temporary immunity so damaging to our natural immunities, and health....and all the paranoid assertions to the contrary won't change THOSE facts.

What are you, a corporate toxic zombie from Ho-Broken New Jersey?

There's a ton of money in mass toxicity.

Tons and tons and tons.

Chemistry, making the world more Jersey-like.

Wow, what a loony rant. OK, you can admit, just so we all know where you are coming from, you are a Truther right?

I will admit that you are an anti-truther.

Get yourself a T-shirt that says so.

Have it say, "I'm from New Jersey, and I'm proud of it."

Or, Toxic Integrity R' Us.

That is your opinion. Your thoughts on this topic (unfortunately repeated ad nauseum over the course of many similar threads) are based on nonsensical assertions, erroneous websites by the tinfoil hat wearing brigade and utter paranoia designed to fool the gullible and ill informed.

Vaccines do not cause autism. Autism is a genetic disease that has been reclassified from other illnesses including mental retardation and learning disabilities.

Without vaccines people would drop dead from diseases likes measles, whooping cough, tetanus and polio. A not insignificant percentage of people who survived would be faced with deafness, blindness, paralysis, infertility and mental retardation as a result.

That has been true throughout much of human history. It is still true in places where India where children die by the thousands each year from lack of access to vaccines.

Please finally go acquaint yourself with the facts on this issue instead of urging people to forgo important public health measures to prevent dangerous and contagious diseases. Thank you.

Quite the opposite, actually.

And, they earned this reputation.
Vaccines prevent diseases. That's a fact. You can't argue with it. Pharmaceutical companies often suck. That still has nothing to do with the fact that vaccines work, prevent disease and cost very little. It has nothing to do with the fact that without vaccines vaccine preventable illnesses would return and cause great harm.

It's like writing that governments do somethings wrong every ergo everything they do must be inherently wrong.
