Reactions to Vaccines

Each of us has heard some of the horror stories out there about the reactions some children (and adults for that matter) have had to the barrage of vaccinations required by most state health officials in the United States. A baby is barely out of the womb when modern medicine deems it vital to inject them with these vaccines. Just when a young person's immune system is adjusting to life on the outside, here come the shots full of dead diseases and chemicals. It wasn't until just recently that the vaccine manufacturers were forced to remove mercury from their vaccines. MERCURY! You've heard about mercury, right? That metallic liquid that was the driving force behind the term, "You're as mad as a hatter," due to the mercury involved in the hat making process. And we, as parents, were being forced to inject it into our young children!

Many parents of autistic children claim their child was perfectly normal before their vaccinations. And only after being subjected to vaccines did their child begin withdrawing from personal interactions and exhibit classic autistic behaviors. Many other parents have heard about these potentially life-threatening side effects of immunization and have worried long and hard about vaccinating their children. There's even a new stress disorder associated with people worrying about vaccines.

Both the anxiety and the potential risks surrounding the vaccination dilemma are becoming more and more prominent in today's health picture. In the hopes that we can shed some light on this issue, we've started a new website (that's still under construction- but come see it anyway!) called vaccinationreactions.com Here's the link: http://www.vaccinationreactions.com Over the next several months I'll be researching both sides in the debate and providing an alternative view of how you can deal with these issues. It's really a tricky subject. And I hope you can find some information that helps you make an informed decision.

So check in with the website occasionally for updates. As more information becomes available I hope to provide it to you. Until then, take care of yourself!
