Vaccines

Post Reply New Topic

There is still absolutely no reason why vaccines would cause autism.

There is one more thing - in recent years there has been a modern trend (at least in my country, but I suppose it can be observed worldwide as well) to bash vaccines as something "evil".

The supporters of these theories often claim that vaccines cause not only autism, but also diabetes, cancer and other severe illnesses. No evidence whatsoever has been given to support these claims, therefore I usually dismiss them.

Vaccines are a good thing - my mother remembers life before the polio vaccine. Not pretty.

Are vaccines risk free - no. Nothing ever is. But there are a whole bunch more people alive today and in good health because of vaccines. Childhood death due to contagious illness is very rare today in first world countries because of vaccines.

Do vaccines cause autism - this has been studied quite a bit and no link has been found. I don't believe that vaccines cause autism.

I do have a problem with people that believe in a whole lot of "pseudo" science and throw good science and medicine out the window. I'd much rather put the effort in at making the good science and medicine even better.

It's all just a bunch of anti-science nonsense. People who refuse to vaccinate their children put them and other children at risk.

Autism causes hysteria over vaccines.

Anyone want to put a study together to prove it? Shouldn't be hard.

Remember there is an industry which expect its paid members
to parrot certain political hot potatoes
and protect their financial interests

certain types of children have quite different detoxification pathways
and suffer what most *normal* kids do not
these different types [like us aspies] are not correctly accounted for
by society

so we must account for ourselves, or suffer their stupid errors of judgement

I mean, think about it.
From my limited experience of NT's [and science], few seem able to grasp facts and reason as well as my aspieself, hence I dismiss much of their false logic and conditioned group speak

My new GP is much younger than me, quite NT, and significantly less intelligent

Vaccines don't make money for the industry. Alt. cures are what makes money. Ergo, the people who have money has a motivational factor are the people saying vaccines are bad and are pushing alternative medicine.

Not this again...

Nothing is made if it doesn't make somebody money.

You're right though the world is full of snake oil salesmen offering their homeopathic BS cures for autism and other conditions. There's a guy who produces videos on youtube, Larrycook333, who is a shining example of what you are talking about. This guy is a true pieces of s**t selling false hope to desperate people. I'll quote one of his comments on one of his videos.





Btw don't bother leaving this c**t a comment because he only approves the ones that read like an infomercial endorsement.

And congrats on your recent move from Brazil to Indonesia.

When I had my MMR vaccine when I was about 1, I changed all of a sudden, on the same day. I was quite a happy baby until then, and straight after I had the vaccine, I cried a lot, every day, for about 9 months to a year after that. My mum had recorded it in her diary. It's as though the vaccine had some sort of affect on the way I behaved in general. I'm not saying crying babies mean Autistic babies at all, I'm just saying it's funny how I changed on the very day I had the vaccine. But it may of just been coincidence, because my development did not change (decrease).

All cultures vaccinate children, or at least allow WHO and other international health organizations to vaccinate their children.

Dunning-Kruger.

profiteering corporations placing money before people, and the people who believe authority figures who lie
certain babies will always react negatively
you dont mind that?
wait till you have children....

*Ahem!* The_Walrus, that's a very thinly disguised insult, and completely unnecessary.

Not to mention it is pretty ironic to see a seventeen year old calling a 49 year old ignorant.

Aren't ASD's something you're BORN with? As in, it was already there in your genes when your life began? I know the experts don't know everything about it, but I was under the impression that it was largely genetic. If so, how could a vaccine cause it? Unless it did something to your father's sperm production when HE received the vaccine, how could it be a contributing factor? I suppose, maybe, something in the vaccine could cause an activation in certain genes in some people, but that seems unlikely. Dr. Wakefield was discredited largely because this has been studied over and over and no one else was able to repeat his results. There's a lot of info about this in the PBS Frontline episode called "The Vaccine War". Not only have they not proven vaccines as a cause, there isn't even a correlation. There are NO higher rates of autism among vaccinated children than unvaccinated. I think we need to stop looking at this as a potential cause because other than Wakefield's fraudulent research, there's been no evidence to support this theory whatsoever. It's time to drop this nonsense and talk about other things.
