As someone who has worked pharmaceuticals before, this sounds completely bollocks. Vaccines have warnings on many of them already (e.g. the Small Pox vax can cause Small Pox in a percentage of people), and they are well known. If there was a problem, Big Pharma cannot cover it up once it reaches the masses. That's what many drug recalls address, and it doesn't necessarily mean they had bad intentions. Sometimes, you can't spot a problem until you have millions of people using it. Vaccine deniers seem to forget that before vaccines, a common saying was "Don't count your children before measles." Losing half of your children to these diseases was ordinary. But because there are some risks using vaccines, these people want to endanger the rest of society.
Something that everyone should be taught in this day and age is NO DRUG IS SAFE. Tylenol can cause your body to flay itself (S&J Syndrome); Motrin can cause severe stomach bleeding (Perforative Ulcers); Antibiotics can disrupt normal heartbeat (prolonged QT intervals); this does not mean we should throw it all to the side of the curb.
Not to mention all the references are to places that want to further the no-vax agenda...
One part of your post I do not understand how can somebody not taking a vaccine endanger the rest of society?
The person without the vaccine should be the one in danger not the other way around?
I can not form a conclusion because I don't know all the facts but my gut feeling is that I don't trust vaccines.
Diseases normally need people to spread themselves. If everyone is immune = has an immune system that is able to fight any viruses/bacterias in the moment they reach his body, then they cannot spread it.
So if you have a newborn baby, that actually CANT be vaccinated right now, and it gets an disease, that people that are immune to them cannot spread...guess which kind of person infected your toddler? The one that is not able to do so, or the one that is able to do so?
Sure there are people allergic to certain stuff in vaccinations, or people that are more sensitive about them. But the more the people around them should care for being vaccinated, because if everyone around those few "yet not vaccinated toddlers" or allergic people is vaccinated, the illness cant find a way to them.
