A Great Book When Considering Vaccines

This is an excellent book for all parents. The author is a practicing pediatrician who chose not to vaccinate her own children. I appreciate the way that she outlines the risks and benefits of the vaccines you will be asked to give your children. She also lists the ingredients in the vaccines, including human fetal tissue. This is a great source for anyone who is weighing the options. I feel her book presents an unbiased approach to the vaccine issue and simply presents the information in a "concise" manner.

Do vaccines contain fetal human tissue?

I received this article and wrote this reponse to it.
http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fautism.about.com%2Fod%2Fmedicalissuesandautis1%2Ff%2Fvaxfetal.htm&h=aef33eab266e1331038bc4ae3679af28

Unfortunately there is so much conflicting information out there for consumers. I have many resources that continue to support that Human Diploid tissue continues to be used in vaccines, and not just from random internet articles like the one I linked to. What I do know is that it has been used in Rubella (which is in the MMR), Polio, and Chickenpox--this info. I have gained from medical doctors practicing pediatrics. I do also know that it has been used in some flu shots. When they are made in countries other than the US, I have a difficult time trusting what the CDC is saying about them. We have to remember how many times the CDC has "misinformed" us about things deemed to be safe. They continue to say that Thimerosal is safe, while the EPA calls it toxic.

My personal feeling is that it doesn't matter if new fetuses are used or not. If they were ever used, then their presence is still in the vaccine (very much like Thimerosal cannot completely be ruled out of the MMR even though they try to purport that it was taken out--traces can still be found in it). I did a lot of thinking and researching when considering vaccines for my son(by the way, I have given him the Polio shot, but I no longer feel good about this and will discontinue).

To me, the Bible is completely clear on the issue of abortion. But it is each person's decision. I finally came to this thought for me. During the Holocaust, the Nazis gained loads of information from conducting medical and psychological experiments on their prisoners. They probably gained some information that would be very valuable to us for saving lives today. The world has not allowed this information to be be released because it would be wrong. The way they experimented on humans like they were animals was wrong and would be completely offensive to release the information. I feel the same way about abortion (and stem cell research for that matter). I don't agree with even one baby being experimented on, even if this was discontinued or if they are using the same source over and over. I feel that God is very clear about how he feels about life. I also feel like He has given me a gift of knowing how important every life is.

This is my belief, and I don't expect everyone to follow it. But I do expect people to hear both sides of the issue and to do their own research.

Hopefully I have encouraged you to think.

H1N1 Vaccine Ingredients

H1N1 Swine Flu Vaccine Facts to Consider
In order to make informed vaccine decisions, you must know what the
ingredients are in the vaccine. There are no long-term safety studies done
on any vaccines, including the flu vaccines. This new flu vaccine will be
released without adequate safety studies.
Common Flu Vaccine Ingredients include:
 Egg protein, many are allergic to eggs
 Formaldehyde- Formalyn (formalin) is a 37 percent solution of
gaseous formaldehyde which includes methanol. (Used in vaccines
as a tissue fixative) Formaldehyde solution (formalin) is considered a
hazardous compound and it is vapor toxic.
 Polysorbate 80 shown to cause infertility in mice
 Sodium Chloride and Calcium Chloride
 Monosodium Glutamate (MSG):C5H8NNaO4, a Stabilizer MSG -
MSG intolerance: There have been numerous studies of allergies
and/or sensitivities to MSG, attributed to the free glutamic acid
component, which has been blamed for causing a wide variety of
physical symptoms such as migraines, nausea, digestive upsets,
drowsiness, heart palpitation, hair loss, asthma, anaphylactic shock,
rapidly increasing diabetes, and many other complaints.
 Potassium phosphate- a soluble salt which is used as a fertilizer, a
food additive and a fungicide. It is a source of phosphorus and
potassium. It is also a buffering agent.
 Thimerosal- a form of mercury still found in some multi-vile vaccines.
 Polyoxidonium- Synthetic polymers and nanomaterials display
selective phenotypic effects in cells and in the body that affect signal
transduction mechanisms involved in inflammation, differentiation,
proliferation, and apoptosis. When physically mixed or covalently
conjugated with cytotoxic agents, bacterial DNA or antigens,
polymers can drastically alter specific genetically controlled
responses to these agents.
 Squalene- An oil based adjuvant that has never been approved in the
US as safe, can cause blindness, autoimmune dysfunction and can
inhibit sperm production. More than two dozen peer-reviewed
scientific papers from ten different laboratories throughout the U.S.,
Europe, Asia, and Australia have been published documenting the
development of autoimmune disease in animals subjected to
2
squalene-based adjuvants. Novartis will make a flu vaccine using
MF59 consisting of Squalene, Tween 80 - A recent study (December
2005) discovered that Tween80 can cause anaphylaxis, a sometimes
fatal reaction characterized by a sharp drop in blood pressure, hives,
and breathing difficulties.
 Span85 another oil
 Human Diploid Tissue- organ and tissue from aborted baby tissue is
now used in manufacturing many vaccines.
 Vaccines given in the past have contained H1N1 viruses; this is not a
new virus. (novaccine.com)
