Stand your ground, and God bless you for it.

It's call "Freedom." They are not more pro-choice than we are, in fact they are often less PRO CHOICE. They give us the right to kill our babies in the womb, but not the right to refuse those same babies shots....if they can help it.

The anti-vax movement can't argue factually so they argue from you tube and silly websites.

We're not the ones arguing in favor of contagious diseases. You anti-vaxxers are. Please stop telling us we need vaccine preventable diseases because science is too difficult for you to understand.

Thank you.

You can refuse shots all you like. But you can't refuse them and expect people to leave you alone to spread vaccine preventable diseases. FYI, most vaccine preventable diseases occur in vaccinated people because most people are vaccinated.

That still doesn't refute the fact that most unvaccinated are far more vulnerable to serious vaccine preventable diseases than their unvaccinated counterparts.

Parents who want to sue pharmaceutical companies are hardly independent observers.

Vaccines are extensively studied before being placed on the market. You know that, right?



Five seconds of googling:

CDC Study Shows No Vaccine, Autism Link

Exposure to thimerosal-containing vaccines in infancy or in the womb is not associated with an increased risk for developing autism, according to a new study from the CDC.

Children in the study who developed autism spectrum disorder (ASD) actually had less exposure to vaccines with the mercury-containing preservative than children who developed normally.

The study is the latest of almost 20 studies to find no link between childhood vaccinations and autism.



How can you be so cavalier about exposing our most vulnerable citizens to dangerous and often deadly vaccine preventable diseases?

Nowhere did I claim Wakefield was "independent". Vaccines have problems associated with them. This is undeniable. Immunity is far more complex than a vaccine.
In fact, I pointed out many conflicts of interest going on with the studies many people readily accept.

How bout that Denmark study?
(NaturalNews) CDC researcher Poul Thorsen, who famously headed up the "Denmark Study" that many claim disproved any link between autism and vaccines, has been indicted in Atlanta by a federal grand jury on charges of wire fraud, money laundering and defrauding research institutions of grant money

A complete red herring. Vaccination "reactions" apparently do not include autism, as the research shows.
Anecdotes always merit scientific consideration based on what they are.
Reactions go to the point about the broad labeling of "Autism" and its wide-range of symptoms. Unlike you, who seem to imply that data is all in, I think more independent and proper research needs to be done.

Too many people are giving validity to information, which does, in fact have conflicts of interest, while they hypocritically complain about it elsewhere.

I think Vaccinations should be by choice, not forced. I also think good information, unbiased needs to be out there.

Actually vaccines are one of the safest medical procedures on the market. They date back several centuries and have literally driven many diseases into submission including smallpox, polio and diphtheria.

Immunity is not that complicated for certain diseases.

The perceived conflicts of interest really aren't. The Academy of American Pediatrics is far more independent than Mercola or Barbara Loe Fisher and her cohort of liars.

I am sure you can.

The science should care about conflict of interest, because the "science" is performed by humans. You may not care, but I assure you scientist and others do care.
To deny conflict of interest has no bearing on outcomes is absurd in the extreme.

Ignoring that it is a lie to say he "headed up the 'Denmark Study"... let's pretend those charges are true. How do they discredit the research?

Read this link... and weep.

Danish investigator Poul Thorsen: Custom-made for the anti-vaccine movement to distract from inconvenient science

Quote:
Finally, it can't be reiterated enough that these fraud charges have nothing at all to do with the scientific validity of the Danish studies. Over the next week and during the trial, you can count on propagandists at AoA to try to use this case to try to convince people that the Danish studies are somehow hopelessly tainted, even though Thorsen actually didn't contribute much to them, and that, by association, all the evidence that supports the safety of vaccines can also now be brought into question.
