Because, that would stop most parents cold in their tracks. Because no parent wants to willingly put their child at risk. And that, would stop the cash flow. We are talking tens of billions of dollars here. And there should have been investigations decades ago, but, for various reasons, it's not gonna happen.I guess where I get hung up on the whole vaccine safety issue is the case of Hannah Poling. In her case she had an underlying mitochondrial disorder that was aggravated by a round of vaccinations and while they said the vaccines didn't cause her autism, the government admitted the vaccines contributed to her diagnosis.
So why then aren't all individuals tested BEFORE vaccinations? Why aren't parents told that although vaccines are "safe" there is a chance they could aggravate an underlying disorder that could cause long term injury? That case should have spawned an immediate investigation into what underlying disorders could be a contraindication to vaccination, but it didn't.
They are not safe for everyone yet we give them to everyone like a multivitamin. It is criminal and the reason that I refuse them for myself and my kids.
First of all, you have to understand that news like this will NEVER make any MSM outlet. Secondly, while the whole study may not have been linked, there is also numerous references. And quotes about said paper. I suppose they made all that up. Ok, just for (silly) arguments sake, let's say they did. I clicked every single link in that entire article and every single one save one maybe, had credible, and often lengthy info. Many WERE entire studies. But, not ONE had books for sale, or anything else to discredit the artcle or authors. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were trying to write off all the damning evidence against the CDC and mercury, with the stroke of a pen..... But surely not!
The evidence in this article, within the numerous links, IS damning. It's clear that mercury is toxic. It's clear that numerous studies have been done, and show it beyond any reasonable doubt. It's clear that doctors, researchers, and scientists all agree on that. To try and refute all this, is foolish. With all due respect.
And I'm not going to go back and forth either. You're either going to see this for what it IS, or you're going to keep sticking your head in the sand. You're choice.

I wasn't referencing that study, it was all the others mentioned. There were other studies mentioned. With findings and quotes from reputable doctors and experts.As I said before, I would imagine that any researcher/scientist/medical professional who would like to be taken seriously by the scientific community would be happy to post any and all data to support his/her theories. I would also say the same of any "news outlet" that posts articles with the hope of "debunking" long-held scientific beliefs -- especially those that can/could potentially harm. Never did I say I believed it was made up. I have no idea what the study was, how it was conducted, or what the actual data/findings were, because it's not made available to the reader. At this point, I cannot make any opinions based only on random quotes from some study that isn't made available for further investigation and study. That's just not how responsible scientific analysis works. I've read MANY "findings" in the past that have been grossly biased even WITH ALL THE DATA SHOWN. If there's anything I learned in Drug Info, it's that you can make ANY STUDY say ANYTHING you'd like if there's an agenda.
...I never saw that "new study" linked. Please post the link, and I'll be happy to read it. Maybe what you read were excerpts from this study, because when I tried to find the entire thing, I was shown a page to purchase the book that it was in.
@Ellen, I'm a professional. My head in not in the sand. If you don't mind me asking, what scientific discipline is your field of study? ...with all due respect.
Please do Ellen.DF, if you don't mind, I'm going to post some other relevant links when I get them sorted out. I've had them bookmarked for years. Please let me know if you don't want them posted.
Yeah, I'm worry about all these vaccinations that my grandkids are getting nowadays. They'll become a drug addict before they start pre-school.They are not safe for everyone yet we give them to everyone like a multivitamin. It is criminal and the reason that I refuse them for myself and my kids.

@msop04, I don't believe that the physician or possibly the parents knew beforehand. This is the article:

It probably doesn't answer a lot of questions but I can tell you that I was not questioned before my son received his Hep B shot in the hospital or his vitamin K shot, I also wasn't questioned when he went for his first shots at his well baby visit, maybe procedure was not followed. I never questioned back then to be honest, I just went along with whatever the doctor said.

I understand where you are coming from since your job is in the medical field. We have 4 Pharmacists and 2 Dr. in our immediate family. DD #2 is a RN, and they all try to convince me to get a flu shot every yr ...of course they will not prevail.
This is the entire reason I started getting flu shots again three years ago. I had always thought it was only the young, infirmed, or elderly that could die from the flu. When my GP told me about healthy teenagers dying from the flu... scary stuff.we've already had cases of perfectly healthy teenagers and adults who have died from flu... this year.
I'll catch a cold now and then but I don't go running to the Dr. b/c I know there is nothing they can do for a common cold.I understand, DF... however, you are an adult and can make that decision for yourself. Also, if you were to feel ill, you can take yourself to the doc or self treat. Also, pediatric and geriatric patients who fall ill can go downhill fast. Children depend on their parent to vaccinate them for protection of illnesses their little bodies can't fight off as well as adults whose bodies are stronger. I hope you are healthy and do not get sick.

Now I'm done with this. You lost any and all credibility trying to make the links out to be selling books. Pretty low MS. But not surprising.

@msop, you will enjoy this probably. I like this guy for several reasons, but the primary one is his being really good at smoothing the edges, sot to speak, for those of us with minimal/ancient science backgrounds. He addresses junk journals too, a real problem these days it seems.

StephanieLynn, I’m sorry for all you have been through.
I’ve often wondered why they give children multiple vaccines at one time. @msop04 Do you hear other people worrying about this?
I have a family member whose immune system is severely comprised. I get the flu shot because I’m around him, elderly parents and a preschooler often. It’s the least I can do if it helps keep them healthy. My parents have been hospitized the past few years during flu season. They got very sick very quickly.
That's what I advise my daughters to do with their baby.Yes, I have read and heard of other people being concerned about the amount of vaccines given in a single visit. My ped does give them per schedule, but he and the other docs in his group are happy to space them out a bit if the parent has concerns. It's also good to choose a ped who will agree to space them out if you are concerned... as some will not.
You're right, and I really mean that. I am truly regretful that I did not realize first that full access was not available. My bad. Only someone with a death wish would do something like that.If I can't read it, then what would you expect? That I just take their word for it, based on quotes with no context to support it and other outdated study info? I don't know a lot of things, but I'm positive that's not good research. Say whatever you want about my credibility... I feel confident that my understanding is much greater than yours or the lay person (assuming you aren't in the scientific or medical field - but in all fairness, I did ask). And the actual study isn't listed, but was noted to be in a book by the researcher. The study wasn't there, but a link to buy the ebook was.
