A healthy choice
Wednesday, November 7, 2001
After watching two videos on vaccination, one for and one against, at college, my whole opinion on vaccination changed. I would not have had my four children vaccinated at all. A natural decline was already occurring in these illnesses before the vaccination programme. It is important for a child to build up its own natural immunity, but I also believe now that vaccination does more harm than good to a baby's immune system (not to mention the addition of mercury and formaldehyde to these vaccinations).

I suspect that vaccination could be responsible for continuous colds, ear infections, chest infections, Attention Deficit Disorder and autism in children today. I think that an increase in the number of children with asthma and eczema could also be related to vaccinations.
I feel that parents are not given both sides of the story. They are bullied into believing that if they don't vaccinate, something awful will happen to the children. Alternatives such as homeopathy should also be given as an option.
Parents are told they have freedom of choice, but there is only a choice when all the facts are presented.
