&lt;p&gt;One argument with a nurse practitioner ended with her admitting that the health field feels that parents are more dilligent when their kids are babies to get all the vaccines in, rather than waiting til they get older. &amp;nbsp;It is for the good of the whole population, not the individual child. &amp;nbsp; Frankly, I care about my child more than the so-called &amp;quot;good of the whole&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In my county, the state gives the county $103.00 for each fully vaccinated child. They want the money so they tow the line.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ignorance is a powerful thing. Some folks refuse to SEE. If they choose one beam of light it sheds light on other things in their darkness and soon the whole reality they have created for themselves is unstable. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They love the darkness rather than the light. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is not a matter of smart and dumb. It takes courage to choose the red pill. (The Matrix reference) &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am glad to know all of you wonderful MER-folk out there!!&lt;/p&gt;

I now try my best to inform others, go to video.google.com and in the search type in &amp;quot;In Lies We Trust&amp;quot; for a really eye opening documentary on vaccinations, pick the full movie to watch not the trailers listed. And for some REAL change vote for Ron Paul and encourage everyone you know to do the same. Even if you do not agree with everything he stands for he would get this country headed back in the right direction.&lt;/p&gt;

My child was diagnosed with a life threatening disability about 13 years ago. We were warned that his immune system was so bad that in order to save his life we had to get him vaccinated. We were young and very ignorant and we went along with it. He had reactions each time. The doctors assured us that it was normal. My son kept getting sicker and sicker. He was put on an adult dose of steriods for about 2 years (for his disease). Nothing helped. After his third hospitalization, the doctors sent him home to die. They said for us to come back after the weekend and that they would do a very invasive procedure to see if he would improve. I went home and found a natural doctor who changed his diet and gave us supplements to help him and suggested that we research vaccinations. He started improving. When we went back for our visit, the doctors were stunned. I thought they would be estactic and want to tell everyone. Instead, we were threatened. They checked our child for bruises, asked him if we hit him. One doctor told us that we were going to kill our child and when that happened, she would see us locked up. She even stated that they could force us to give over our parental rights to them! I begged the head doctor to give us 3 months and if there was no improvement, I would follow their suggestions without question. In 3 months, he had gained weight (something he hadn't been able to do), he showed no signs of ADHD, and his breathing seemed better. The head doctor agreed to allow us to continue with natural therapies, as long as we were closely supervised. The other doctor? She refused to even walk in the room. The one sticking point is vaccinations. They consider it child abuse to not vaccinate. I am forced to lie to them. I have seen too many parents whose children were fine before vaccinations and who aren't now. Have I signed a waiver? Yes. Do I trust that to stop them from taking my child? Not on your life.&lt;/p&gt;

That being said, it's comforting knowing there are people that are willing to do their own research and do not believe everything they are told. &amp;nbsp;Although through personal experience, sadly, it seems as though that is not the norm. &amp;nbsp;Please take the time to go to &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://zeitgeistmovie.com/"&gt;http://zeitgeistmovie.com/&lt;/a&gt; and download this movie (it's free). &amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;Zeitgeist, produced by Peter Joseph, was created as a nonprofit filmiac expression to inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that very often things are not what the population at large think they are...Now, it's important to point out that there is a tendency to simply disbelieve things that are counter to our understanding, without the necessary research performed.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;img src="http://articles.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=42526" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Vaccine Companies Investigated for Manslaughter</title><link>http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/02/23/vaccine-companies-investigated-for-manslaughter.aspx#42525</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Feb 2008 01:56:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:42525</guid><dc:creator>MatthewR</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;What Dr. Mercolla failed to mention is that there are over 1.25 million individuals in the united states infected with Hep B (CDC). He also apparently forgot to mention that the number of new infections each year has decreased from 260,000 in the 1980s to 60,000 which is predictable as the HBV vaccine became available in 1982 (CDC).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As far as the vaccine only being effective in about half the population thats just misleading information. Yes, it is true not everyone who receives a vaccine (from influenza to small pox to hep B) will develop immunity. But then thats not really how vaccines work. They decrease the critical mass of people who can become infected and spread the disease in a community. Thats why its important that everyone is vaccinated. Even for something as benign as the flu. If I get the flu ill be fine. Im a young strapping healthy man but if I take that virus and pass it on to my grandma it could be fatal. This is why all people need be vaccinated not only could it save your life but also the lives of those around you who, because of genetic predispositions, aren't able to develop immunity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to talk about dirty companies feeding the public bad information for the sake of profit how about this one: leading you to be believe the drug companies are all out to get your money and the doctors don't care about public health. That is, all the doctors accept for Dr M; the messiah that will lead you to the great panacea of $125 pots and pans and raw honey.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The people that develop these vaccines aren't evil. They are ordinary people that care about human welfare. Scientists have familys. They have kids with autism and parents with cancer. Thier research isn't hidden from the public its all available online. If you still don't wanna get vaccinated go ahead and die like they did in the middle ages; diarrhea and respiratory infections are still leading causes of death in parts of the world that haven't been tainted by western medicine.&lt;/p&gt;

Roosevelt? &amp;nbsp;He got polio as an adult and did everything he could to help those who also had gotten it, and to help see to it that you don't get it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
