Wrong. They have intact immune systems BECAUSE they've received no vaccines. Rabies vaccines are mandated ONLY as a means of protecting humans in the unlikely event the dog SHOULD contract rabies. How cruddy is that? Dogs are made to needlessly suffer ONLY to protect us? Bats are the only carrier of rabies where I live. Google this, so you're better informed. Look up the rabies stats where you live. Many people no longer vaccinate their pets for the same reasons they no longer vaccinate their children or themselves....
People (and pets) who are vaccinated have "intact immune systems", too.
You think there is no possibility your pet could be exposed to a rabid bat?

If they supposedly were to have had "intact immune systems", then please explain why my son's brain swelled after receiving vaccinations? And why my dog seized each time he received vaccinations? Have YOU been exposed to a rabid bat?

No need for cursing. Join reality. No tin foil hat needed. How many vaccines is enough? Do you have an answer? Or just pathetic cursing and insults instead of any contribution to the discussion?
Once again, science.

I've never understood this either. It goes to show you that natural selection is still in effect.

Nope. Cursing out posters is against TOS and is also a sign of complete ignorance and bullying.
Do you support those who don't follow TOS and act as bullies on CD? Think that behavior is just peachy keen? Apparently. I look forward to you cursing at me in your response.

I know way more about the risks of rabies than you, having lived in places where I had to have the rabies vaccine due to a high incidence in the local animal population. Where I live now, we have bats, raccoons, coyotes and other rabies reservoir animals, so all of our pets have been vaccinated.
Your so called "intact immune system" is meaningless. It doesn't protect against tetanus, polio, smallpox, flu, colds, or any of the other diseases. The only protection against diseases is exposure and creation of antibodies. There is a lot of evidence that the 1918 flu pandemic actually killed more people with strong immune systems than normal.

You don't get to decide that you aren't going to risk the health of others because you have some irrational fear of vaccines.

Oh goodness gracious, I'm so sorry from the bottom of my heart I deeply offended you. Please accept my apologies. I'm losing sleep over this.
Why is being able to prevent more serious infections a Bad Thing?
Vaccine makers hold no liability for adverse reactions that are not due to a defect in the vaccine.
Should peanut growers be liable for a serious allergic reaction to peanuts?
Stop vaccinating and vaccine preventable disease come roaring back, like measles in Europe after Wakefield's greedy, fraudulent "study".
How did the first rotavirus vaccine come to be removed from the market?
Why does the vaccine compensation fund exist?
Chickenpox generally causes a generalized rash; shingles is usually confined to the distribution of one or a couple of nearby nerves. They look different.
How many SIDS deaths had no relation to a vaccination?

Suzy, do you know if I’m more likely to get shingles again as an adult since I had it at 6 years old? I know insurance won’t pay for the vaccine until I’m 50, but I could pay for it myself.
