Worried about vaccination dangers?

I ran across a very well-reasoned article written by a homeschooling mother who happens to be a naturopathic doctor. She decided not to vaccinate, and wrote about her reasons.

Mainstream medicine continues to debunk autism-vaccine link

1. There are many other variables about the way vaccines are made and the schedules that are used. Only two variables have been eliminated: thimerosal mercury and measles virus found in the MMR.

2. Since research to date hasn’t identified a link, there isn’t any link. Research to date is very narrow in scope. No one has dared to do a simple epidemiological study that compares autism rates in kids who have been vaccinated with autism rates in kids who haven’t been.

Meanwhile, the anecdotal evidence mounts.

Can we trust our doctors on vaccines?

Mercola calls the medical system’s approach to vaccines “Russian roulette.” It’s true. Doctors expect a certain percentage of people to react badly to any vaccine. But as the “herd immunity” is protected, it’s supposed to be worth the risk. We need to ask ourselves: is it worth the risk? After all, we are the ones carrying the risk. We parents sign waivers when our children are vaccinated. The system depends on this.
