Are you vaccinated?
The latest one I got is the tetanus-diphtheria vaccine,I think.I had to get it because I got scratched and it's kind of handy on a farm.

Do you have all the recommended vaccines?
No.

Will you get vaccines in the future?
Idk,it kind of depends.

Will you vaccinate your future children?
No sure,I'm not crazy about vaccinations.My friend was vaccinated and she's fine.

Do you agree with using aborted fetal tissue to make vaccines(MMR)?
No.

Actually, allergies are said to be caused by vaccines. Allergies are your immune system in over drive basically. From very early in life, babies are shot up with many vaccines (30 by the time they are 2?). Such vaccines, besides the toxins in them, train the body to be always attacking something. When the vaccines stop, the immune system doesn't know how to stop - hence: allergies

Very true. The growing trend of allergies could also be attributed to vaccines.

"By preventing childhood infections, vaccines also prevent the development of a strong T helper (TH) 1 response. This arrested development would then perpetuate the bias toward a TH2 response that characterizes the immune system at birth; that, in turn, is thought to increase the likelihood of allergic disease.

This proposition stems from the “hygiene hypothesis,” which suggests that living in a highly sterile, infection-free environment keeps children from developing the TH1 response necessary to fend off allergic disease. Some epidemiologic studies support the hygiene hypothesis, showing greater rates of allergy in highly sanitized Western nations (where vaccination is prevalent) than in less developed countries with low vaccination rates and a relatively high risk of infection.

Other investigators argue that vaccination facilitates autoimmune disease via “molecular mimicry”—the presence of proteins on the surface of a wild-type or vaccine pathogen that are similar to those on the surface of human cells. This similarity may trigger an autoimmune response if the body mistakes its own cells for the pathogen."

CAN VACCINES CAUSE FOOD ALLERGIES?

JAMA 2001 Apr 4;285(13):1746-8 Detection of peanut allergens in breast milk of lactating women states, “Most individuals who react to peanuts do so on their first known exposure”……………..and concluded “Peanut protein is secreted into breast milk of lactating women following maternal dietary ingestion. Exposure to peanut protein during breastfeeding is a route of occult exposure that may result in sensitization of at-risk infants.” PMID 11277829

Women have been ingesting peanut protein while breastfeeding for decades. What has changed in the last 15 years to cause infants to develop life-threatening allergies to this legume? One change has been the vaccination schedule.

The Int Arch Allergy Immunol 1999 Jul; 119(3):205-11 Pertussis adjuvant prolongs intestinal hypersensitivity concludes: Our findings indicate nanogram quantities of PT (pertussis toxin), when administered with a food protein, result in long-term sensitization to the antigen, and altered intestinal neuroimmune function. These data suggest that exposure to bacterial pathogens may prolong the normally transient immune responsiveness to inert food antigens. PMID 10436392

Does this study explain why babies and toddlers react on their first exposure to the peanuts or other antigens? The babies may have been sensitized by the vaccines to the proteins through breast milk or formula ingested at the time of vaccination. This would also explain why children are anaphylactic to a variety of proteins, such as different tree nuts, peanuts, egg, legumes, milk, seeds, etc., depending on what proteins the mother ate at the time of vaccination.

ARE MULTIPLE VACCINES CAUSING OUR IMMUNE SYSTEMS TO FAIL?

Immunology Today, March 1998, Volume 19, p. 113-116 states, “Modern vaccinations, fear of germs and obsession with hygiene are depriving the immune system of information input upon which it is dependent. This fails to maintain the correct cytokine balance and fine-tune T-cell regulation, and may lead to increased incidences of allergies and autoimmune diseases.” PMID 9540269

From the journal Allergy 1999, 54, 398-399, Multiple Vaccination effects on atopy, “An increase in the incidence of childhood atopic diseases may be expected as a result of concurrent vaccination strategies that induce a Th2-biased immune response. What should be discussed is whether the prize of a reduction of common infectious diseases through a policy of mass vaccination from birth is worth the price of a higher prevalence of atopy.” PMID 10371102

Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, Feb. 2000; 23(2):81-90, Effects of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis or tetanus vaccination on allergies and allergy-related respiratory symptoms among children and adolescents in the United States, “The odds of having a history of asthma was twice as great among vaccinated subjects than among unvaccinated subjects. The odds of having any allergy-related respiratory symptom in the past 12 months was 63% greater among vaccinated subjects than unvaccinated subjects.” PMID 10714532

Epidemiology 1997 Nov;8(6):678-80 Is infant immunization a risk factor for childhood asthma or allergy? This study followed 1,265 children born in 1977. The 23 children who received no DPT and polio immunizations had no recorded asthma episodes or consultations for asthma or other allergic illness before age 10 years; in the immunized children, 23.1% had asthma episodes, 22.5% asthma consultations, and 30% consultations for other allergic illness. Similar differences were observed at ages 5 and 16 years. PMID 9345669

While I picked a bad example the fact still stands, no scientist has yet to actually prove that correlation equals causation in the case of autism.

I think SNL put it best.

The growing trend of not getting vaccinated has lead to a whole new trend. Dieing of Polio.

Here: http://www.naturalnews.com/026953_thimeros...sm_mercury.html

"In the study, it was found that the amounts of Thimerosal found in inoculations commonly given to infants in the 1990s and still in use today (though more limited) induced levels of cellular toxicity. This cellular damage was consistent with that found in studies of patients diagnosed with ASD."

This just validates the thimerasol and autism link (aka mitochindrial disorder)
The government has also admitted to this link, see http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-kirby/...ci_b_88323.html

"The doctors conceded that the child was healthy and developing normally until her 18-month well-baby visit, when she received vaccinations against nine different diseases all at once (two contained thimerosal).

Days later, the girl began spiraling downward into a cascade of illnesses and setbacks that, within months, presented as symptoms of autism, including: No response to verbal direction; loss of language skills; no eye contact; loss of "relatedness;" insomnia; incessant screaming; arching; and "watching the florescent lights repeatedly during examination."

Seven months after vaccination, the patient was diagnosed by Dr. Andrew Zimmerman, a leading neurologist at the Kennedy Krieger Children's Hospital Neurology Clinic, with "regressive encephalopathy (brain disease) with features consistent with autistic spectrum disorder, following normal development." The girl also met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) official criteria for autism.

In its written concession, the government said the child had a pre-existing mitochondrial disorder that was "aggravated" by her shots, and which ultimately resulted in an ASD diagnosis."

The government =/= a scientific body. Could you provide a source which shows the scientists and medical researchers who did the studies on this one infant?

Are you vaccinated? - Yes, I've had vaccines before.
Do you have all the recommended vaccines? - I'm not sure, I might have missed a couple. Oh, what a shame.
Will you get vaccines in the future? - No, not of my own accord, at least. Not at all.
Will you vaccinate your future children? - No way. All of my babes will be vax-free!
Do you agree with using aborted fetal tissue to make vaccines(MMR)? - Most definitely not. If I did, that would require me to support abortion, which I do not.

Only one's I've had were ones I needed like back in middle or whenever that they make you take to go to school.

vaccines like tetanus, you would be stupid not to get it. 'But it has mercury in it' Fine then be an idiot and die or screw your life up because you didnt want to get mercury poisoning

The wikipedia article on the MMR vaccine has that information, as well as this link debating the morality of such.

As for me:

Are you vaccinated?

Yes.

Do you have all the recommended vaccines?

Yes, except for Typhus, since the physician thought it made me sick.

Will you get vaccines in the future?

Since I work in healthcare, then probably yes.

Will you vaccinate your future children?

Yes.

Do you agree with using aborted fetal tissue to make vaccines(MMR)?

No, I don't agree with the abortion, or the current/future use of such tissue. However, both cell lines used in MMR vaccines were started 40 and 50 years ago. It is regrettable and evil that the babies were aborted then, but until scientists switch to another method of making the Rubella part of the MMR vaccine, we don't have much of a choice, as far as I know.

No no no no no.

From the CDC themselves


The last natural case of polio was over three decades ago.. there you have it. The last imported case was over a decade ago. The disease was imported most likely throgh the live oral polio vaccine. So even the imported polio was caused by the vaccine, NOT naturally occuring polio. ALL other cases (and not since 1999) were CAUSED by the vaccine. To be clear, the live oral polio vaccine isn't used in the US anymore, but it is still used in other countries.

I have never been vaccinated; and yet I never get sick!

Protip: no one uses aborted fetuses for development anymore. They use chicken eggs.

From Rense.com (not sure how legit this source is LOL) Nor do I know if these are vaccines still used??

So you grab a wall of text from some website without checking its validity, and then expect me to take it seriously?

I recognize a few of those as ones that I just looked up not 15 minutes ago. Some of them used to use human embryonic cells for development back in the 60's; but they don't anymore.

Germany used to break treaties and systematically kill entire demographics of people; but they don't anymore.

LOL I said I wasn't sure. It's hard to find accurate information on this. I saw this same chart posted on other websites. Anyway this website seems to be legit and have a complete listing of what is in each vaccine by each company ....

http://www.novaccine.com/vaccine-ingredients/

You'll find that the CDC themselves admits to using aborted fetal tissue in the proccess of making vaccines. Yes, it is still used today to make vaccines. No new or current aborted fetuses are used, but aborted fetuses from decades ago are used.

No, NO no way!

This is me.

I'm not going to vote because I don't think there are enough options to me. I am vaccinated, but I don't have every vaccine available, and I'm not sure what you mean by "selectively vaccinated". I am going to vaccinate my children, but probably not every vaccine available ever, and I feel that the majority of vaccines offered are vaccinated and so that isn't my problem.

Meh. It's different here, I guess. We're given the main childhood vaccines at school (tetanus/diphtheria, MMR, etc) so it's not like it was a big deal when I was a kid.
