I've posted many many peer reviewed studies and many more done by well known and prominant scientists and doctors, and they DO publish these studies everywhere they can...There are none so blind, as they who will not see..

What peer reviewed studies? All I have seen are one line posts and references to ant-vaccine web sites.Also quotations attributed to people who never made them.
I looked at the list of your posts, and you have NOT given a links to peer reviewed articles to support your point of view.
Why does california say they have a whooping cough epidemic happening when less than 1000 people out of 40 million have got it???My posts are very informative , whereas the posts that spew cdc lies are pathetic, most of them don't even have one doctors name on them...Who wrote them?? Which doctors support them???

The California epidemic is an epidemic because there are children dying and we have not had an outbreak for 50 years. The doctor who talks about this is Gilberto Chavez, MD, chief of the California Department of Health's infectious disease center. The definition of an epidemic is the occurrence of more cases of a disease than would be expected in a community or region during a given time period.
As of July 17, there were about 1,500 reported cases in the state. That's five times the level for this time of year. That means the normally there are about 300 cases. As of November, there have been over 6600 cases reported. Ten children have died of whooping cough this year. All of the deaths, btw, occurred in infants under 3 months of age. The problem is that the disease is increasing.

Would you specify which posts "that spew CDC lies" you are referring to?
"An outbreak of a disease is defined as being epidemic, however, not by how many members or what proportion of the population it infects but by how fast it is growing."
Your figures are out of date. So far there have been about 6800 cases reported in California. That does not include cases that were not reported because they were not severe enough to trigger hospitalization or testing.
We are not talking about the common cold here. We are talking about a preventable disease that is killing infants --- who are too young to be vaccinated. By vaccinating the people who come in contact with those babies, we can reduce the risk that they will get sick : Adults urged to get flu, whooping cough vaccines to protect kids - USATODAY.com

"Epidemic" has a specific defintion which has been explained by some others here. I tried to find the trigger information, that is, how many cases before it's called an epidemic. It's different with different diseases. This mess in California is huge! Yesterday they were all over the news here in CO about it; we knew it was a matter of time until it got here. We have a lot of non-vaccinators here, too.
That CBS newslink was from 2008. The link between vaccines and autism was debunked in 2010. You're basing your opinion on a 2-year-old news reporter's incomplete investigation about a fraudulent, licenced-stripped "doctor's" psuedo-research.
the link between vaccines and autism has NEVER been debunked, as you say..
more children are damadged from vaccines than will ever get the deseases they're vaccinated for..SSSOOOO sad, I'll take my chance with an extemely rare desease , rather than be injected with toxix poisens that although maybe not immediately, will harm my immune system, and could easily be responsible for my developing all manner of auto-immune diseases, cancers, and neurological damadge..
