True. Too many kids grow up in what is basically a too sterile an

discriminating about when and what to get immunised *for* rather than
by default running off and getting a jab without weighing up if it is
really necessary, or even a good idea at all.

Last jabs I had was 1996, one tetanus shot because of ticks and the
other was a bad decision on my part - a flu shot, which naturally gave
me flu symptoms... interestingly I've never had the flu since then,
and I'm not even sure when/if I've had flu prior to that jab, to be
honest.

proved immunization causes autism.

Those studies really do exist and seem to point out that multiple
vaccinations such as measles+mumps+rubella do cause autism like
symptoms in some cases.

Of course such science is immediately suppressed and researchers
'Wakefielded' almost instantly.

Depends which immunisation - studies have linked one of them to a
very low risk of triggering autism.


Which study was that?

One that they announced on the news a couple or few years ago.

There is a verified risk that a tiny percentage will develop autism
as a result of the vaccination.

Someone in the medical profession blew it out of all proportions and
put people off having their kids vaccinated.
Click to expand...

No, he (Wakefield) didn't. It was the media who blew his words out of
proportion and context.
What he said was an answer to the question of one of the parents about
what he would do with his kids: vaccinate or not.

His answer was that he thought it would probably a good idea to postpone
it (measles) with one year and keep it one year apart from mumps and the
rubella vaccination.

In Japan they tried this and the autism went down considerably and
immediately. The they got bullied and bought into re-instating the MMR,
and up it went again.

Crazy zealots on both side have been climbing in high places and
shouting out rude names ever since.............................

Yeah, yeah, 'immunisation is a good thing of course'.
How much immunisation exactly is 'a good thing'?
American schedules? Does anyone know _where_ the rate of autism _and_
SID are relatively higher? Right: USA. That's why Americans are morons,
and people going that path are too.

Polio vaccination? OK.
Measles? Only if you haven't had it as a kid.
Whooping cough? Not necessarily, our hospitals are very good.
Chicken pox? Just make sure the kid doesn't scratch.

Of course you have evidence of this?

who will post anything, despite the lack of evidence.

Apparently some Australians are morons too. :)

"She is a retired Northampton science teacher and is concerned
that photosynthesis, which depends upon sunlight, would not
happen and would keep the plants from growing. She said she has
observed areas near solar panels where the plants are brown and
dead because they did not get enough sunlight.

She also questioned the high number of cancer deaths in the area,
saying no one could tell her that solar panels didn’t cause
cancer."

the ground and pollution is fine) Hockey will be right at home
amongst this level of ignorance.




Not just the yanks. I just heard a woman on ABC radio spouting of
about how she'd "read scientific studies on the internet" that
proved immunization causes autism.

Those studies really do exist and seem to point out that multiple
vaccinations such as measles+mumps+rubella do cause autism like
symptoms in some cases.

Of course such science is immediately suppressed and researchers
'Wakefielded' almost instantly.

Read the papers by Wakefield and his colleagues who got chastised for
daring to publish their work.

Depends which immunisation - studies have linked one of them to
a very low risk of triggering autism.

Not that the ratio is much consolation to the parent's whose
kid gets it.

Never mind what the kid him/herself thinks about it...


Thinking parents dont want their kids to get measles, diphtheria
or whooping cough either. All are bad, and can cause
complications leading to death. Ever seen the stats on how many ?

Did I say they shouldn't be immunised?

I think that immunisation is a good idea, but, when I was a kid,
measles, chicken pox, and mumps were just a part of growing up. You
usually got them early on in primary school.

True. Too many kids grow up in what is basically a too sterile an
environment these days as well. Immunisation is a good thing of
course, but I think a lot of people need to be a little more
discriminating about when and what to get immunised *for* rather than
by default running off and getting a jab without weighing up if it is
really necessary, or even a good idea at all.

Yeah, yeah, 'immunisation is a good thing of course'.
How much immunisation exactly is 'a good thing'?
American schedules? Does anyone know _where_ the rate of autism _and_
SID are relatively higher? Right: USA. That's why Americans are morons,
and people going that path are too.

Polio vaccination? OK.
Measles? Only if you haven't had it as a kid.
Whooping cough? Not necessarily, our hospitals are very good.

But not good enough to stop kids dying from it...........

Chicken pox? Just make sure the kid doesn't scratch.
HPV? My God! NO!
