Reply #9: Bull, we are replacing permanent immunity with vaccination and 'temporary' [View All]

immunity. How this is 'helping in the long run' I'll never know.

The best way to protect children from disease is to breastfeed. However, I dont impose my personal medical beliefs on others, nor should you.

Also, I resent being called selfish. I took TWO plus years to make my decision, and spoke with countless government authorities about this issue. I read numerous books on the issue, and made an INFORMED and very NON SELFISH decision for my daughter.

I disagree with you that disease would return in droves if people stopped vaccinating. In fact there are highly vaccinated populations that have not seen a decrease in disease in spite. The reason being they dont have the sanitation/water standards systems that we do in the US.

In addition, I'd much rather my daughter contract measles then diabetes, cancer, autism etc... which have all been linked to vaccines by reputable medical journals!

I have an autistic nephew who survived stage 4 pediatric cancer, and a diabetic husband, so please don't lecture me about being selfish.
