Guess I'll have to keep dreaming of the day when people do not attribute proof to anecdotal evidence. Frustrating when people are determined to let symptoms and sequence speak louder than controlled analysis.

Autism is not caused by vaccines, and failing to get your children vaccinated is poor parenting, in my opinion.
I chose the HPV vaccine for my teen. I was raped and got HPV because of it. Maybe I have much more concern for my own child than others because of having seriously bad things happen to me in my life.
Many of the problems affecting young people today are because of genetics not vaccines.
I recently got vaccinated again (MMR)at the age of 45, because I was working with a young girl who never had ANY vaccines at all!! I needed to protect myself.
You are going to see outbreaks of diseases that we have not seen in years (polio, mumps, etc) because of this kind of ignorance
Ask any dr. if they vaccinate their own children and the answer is YES, unless they are a quack.

Yes, without a doubt, vaccines can trigger autism in some children. That is a fact of life for many of families.
And how ridiculous can the vaccine profiteers get? Ofcourse there can be brain development problems when you give a baby with a developing brain dozens of biological products that effect the immune system and can and will set off any number of biological functions to defend itself?
What this period in time will tell future historians is this:
The multi-BILLION dollar vaccine industry will not go down easily. It will not accept one bit of blame in any adverse event, which ofcourse will in fact lead to its downfall. History willl show that when money, power and influence are involved, that people will do what they have to do to protect their interests. Even if it means some childrens lives are blown to smitherines in the process.
No thanks. I am out. I will never believe the b.s. again. Vaccines can and absolutely do carry HUGE risks of harm. If you have been lead to believe otherwise, I would check what you are smoking in your pipe.

There has been entirely too many articles claiming vaccines have nothing to do with vaccines. It is insulting in the highest degree to dismiss the eye-witness accounts of parents SEEING the damage happen. It is ridiculous to think just because there are financial and professional reputations to protect that the effects happening to our children just suddenly vanish because of a stupid, uninformed article like this.
No matter who or how or how often the data is supressed, retracted or refused publication, it is happening. It happens every day to more and more children. The effects are long lasting, if not permanent. It's about time columnists developed a little backbone and started asking why so many kids are chronically sick (the mom with the ear infection kid should have her kid's immune system and allergies checked), why autoimmune disorders are going through the roof and why autism has reached epidemic proportions.
It may not get your publication pharma advertising, but it might just make a difference in the health of a child.
No salary, no reputation, no employment, no column, no magazine, no newspaper, no career is worth depriving children of their lives and health.
Whether the Lancet retracted or did not retract Dr Wakefield's study does not change the diseased bowels the children have. Retracting it did not stop the bowel disease from happening. It DID scare doctors who are seeing the bowel conditions in theiir patients - enough that some just won't treat the kids afraid of the persecution Dr Wakefield has endured.
One day there will be a day of reckoning, and it's coming faster than anyone can imagine. Over half a million children and counting. That's a LOT of families who are angry at the way their children's lives have been stolen away. That's a lot of impaired adults in the future of our nation. We parents who have witnessed the damage will be able to look ourselves in the mirror, knowing we have done everything we could for our children after seeing the damage happen.
That can't be said for those who urge new parents to follow in our footsteps with vaccines. When they are done following these kinds of recommendations and they experience what we and our children have had happen, those parents join our ranks and wonder - how do you even sleep at night?

I have a 14 month son and am delaying his vaccinations for now (MMR plus 2 others). I'm not antivaccine at all and requested the flu & H1N1 vaccine for my son as soon as they were available. He had no problems with those.
Right now, the delay is due to my son's constant colds/ear infections (we did tubes, it helped a little). I just don't feel comfortable giving him the vaccine until he's healthy for longer than a few days at a time. Definitely getting pressured by the pediatrician to hurry up and do it already. But I have to do what's best for my son even if that means we're not following the recommended schedule. Hopefully the end of cold & flu season is around the corner!

Beth of NC 4:44PM April 06, 2010

It's not an exaggeration to think that the same government who approves its own raises each year would be forcing this H1N1 vaccine on us. Don't we have rights? What about independent confirmation that this vaccine works? There is none posted. Only the CDC and government-subsidized drug companies have been putting out any kind of data on side-effects and risks.
So ask yourself, is this really a necessary vaccine? More than likely it's just another government scare tactic to keep us buying more drugs we don't need.
I'd rather be free and sick than a healthy sheep.

I don't agree that the MMR vaccine is safe. The vaccine that was used 60's correlates with the escalation of neurological disorders since then. Back in the 60's it was unusual to see children with ADD--now it is commonplace. Back in the 60's it was unusual for children to disrupt classes--is it discipline or is it neurological? The focus of health should not be vaccines but better eating habits!

I found a summary of the Wakefield issue. It's very clear, and you will find it interesting, I'm sure:

THERE IS TRUTH IN BOTH SIDES OF THIS ISSUE BUT AS USUAL PEOPLE REACT TOO ADVERSLY RATHER THAN LOOKING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM...
MERCURY IN FILLINGS CAUSES HEALTH PROBLEMS TOO, SO WE USE A SAFER PRODUCT NOW..IMALGUM
IMMUNIZATIONS HAVE PREVENTED WIDESPREAD SICKNESS AND DEATH...
TAKE THE MERCURY AND OTHER AGENTS THAT WE NOW KNOW ARE HARMFUL OUT OF THE IMMUNIZATIONS..DONT STOP USING VACCINATIONS!!!!
THERE HAS BEEN A HUGE RISE IN WHOOPING COUGH IN ADULTS IN TEXAS DUE TO PARENTS NOT IMMUNIZING THERE CHILDREN.
DO YOU STOP EATING VEGGIES BECAUSE OF PESTICIDES? NO YOU EAT ORGANIC.
STOP DRINKING WATER BECAUSE OF ITS POLLUNTANTS(FAR WORSE THAN IMMUNIZATIONS) nO, YOU FILTER.
WORK ON A SOLUTION
