I honestly thought that this issue was settled, but apparently there are some folks who think this is an evil plot by the government to control their children. Wingnuts are using words like "oppressive".
Sorry Glenn Beck, people who question vaccinations are not being "persecuted". You have the right to do what you want with your own damn kids, but not when you put other people's children at risk.
Two potential republican candidates for president have already declared that they are not too sure about this vaccination thing. One of them tried to link vaccines to mental illness.
And the other one.....
"New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Monday parents should have some choice on whether to vaccinate their children, a position he's taken before but one that drew a new level of attention amid a U.S. measles outbreak and his recent moves toward running for president."
Of course, politicians being politicians, he tried to walk it back.
"The political significance of Christie's remarks was amplified by his office a short time later, when it released a statement saying the governor believes "with a disease like measles there is no question kids should be vaccinated."
Yep, this guy is definitely running for president.
You gotta love these conservatives. I mean I understand that they don't like a lot of regulations in their day to day lives, but there are some things in life that should not even be debated.
Take washing your hands, for instance.
"In a week packed with news over concerns for public health, Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) described his own history of opposing certain health and hygiene regulations, including those that require employees to wash their hands after using the bathroom.
During a Q&A at the Bipartisan Policy Center on Monday, Tillis related a story from his time in the state legislature in 2010, complaining that the U.S. is "one of the most regulated nations in the history of the planet," video via C-SPAN shows.
“I was having a discussion with someone, and we were at a Starbucks in my district, and we were talking about certain regulations where I felt like ‘maybe you should allow businesses to opt out,'" the senator said.
Tillis said his interlocutor was in disbelief, and asked whether he thought businesses should be allowed to "opt out" of requiring employees to wash their hands after using the restroom.
The senator said he'd be fine with it, so long as businesses made this clear in "advertising" and "employment literature."
“The market will take care of that," he added, to laughter from the audience." [Source]
And this man is a Senator. I sure hope that he won't be shaking the hands of his constituents on his next trip home.
Folks, if you happen to live in North Carolina and you meet the senator one day, you might want to just give him a fist bump.

There will certainly be a lot more kids without vaccinations now that the dark man in the WH weighed in on the subject. Now it will get more political just like atmospheric science did when Al Gore made a movie. It is true both men did what they did to help but when dealing with a large crowd of conservatives who are largely childish and reactionary the damage may outweigh the good intention.
ReplyDeleteIf I don't get my child vaccinated but yours is, how is your child getting sick?and all of these outbreaks of these diseases that the U.S. eradicated are coming to us curtesy of south of the border.

http://www.politico.com/story/2015/02/obama-vaccines-views-suspicious-114837.html
Interesting. I guess he saw the light.
ReplyDelete@Pilot X @President MSNBC.....Yes, the president did indeed see the light or grasped the big picture, so to speak, as is indicated when reading the full Politico article of the link President MSNBC provided.
DeleteAs I've pointed out, between the time that this statement was made and now, the Lancet (most prestigious medical journal in existence) retracted and repudiated it's published study linking the two. Changing your opinion when accepted fact is disproven is what smart people do. Sticking with discredited ideas is what idiots do.
DeleteVaccinations have been under suspicion for a long time by many health professionals.
ReplyDeleteWhile they have contributed to diminishing many outbreaks and spread of of serious diseases, they have to be studied more closely.
Many children have violent reactions to vaccines, and while they are not published both mothers and pediatricians are aware of this.
Vaccinations lower and at times eliminate totally certain of the body's immune responses.
Whether this facilitates other conditions to develop in the body id not known, but it is suspected. The situation is this has to be studied but it seems to be a sacred cow that cannot be approached or even questioned or else it causes an illogical hyteria.
Many doctors have set up different vaccination schedules for children, theu giving the child's body time to develop it's own immune responses as well.
Notably among these is the Dr. Sears vaccination schedule which professes to bypass the time when the autism may develop. Many people are following this.
This does not mean no vacs, just a different time schedule for them. I agree with this, What can it hurt, lets see how it works out.
After all, it's much better to have a healthy adult population where their bodies own defenses have protected them from the onslaught of diseases we are seeing now, and paying for now!

Chris Christie Shows Fondness for Luxury Benefits When Others Pay the Bill

Chris Christie Shows Fondness for Luxury Buffets When Others Pay the Bill
Christie has the shelf life of unrefrigerated fish outside of New Jearsey. Where is he supposed rack up that all important first win? Iowa? No that's Huckleberry country. New Hampshire? Ever heard of the Sununus? South Carolina? They're more pragmatic than Iowans, but just as conservative, so no. He's stuck in the Guliani niche: too socially liberal for the base and too prolitarian for the grey suited money men.
Delete"If I don't get my child vaccinated but yours is, how is your child getting sick?"
ReplyDeleteThere are always a certain percentage of people who have no immunity, and not by choice. Newborn babies, for example, cannot be immunized. Nor can people with immune deficiencies. On top of that, some immunizations wear off over time, leaving that adult person unprotected.
Now, in a society that properly vaccinates everyone, the minority of such people who have no immunity are effectively protected by the majority who do have immunity. There aren't enough vulnerable people for a virus to get a toe-hold and cause an epidemic. This is called "herd immunity."
But in a "fuck-you, I'm a selfish moron, and I don't believe believe in scientifical stuff" society, when enough people opt out of vaccination, then plagues can happen. There is no herd immunity, and those who couldn't get vaccinated or whose vaccinations failed are punished right along with the morons who chose not to get vaccinated.
So yes, not vaccinating your kid CAN harm others who didn't opt out of vaccination.
But putting all that aside, it's worth pointing out that most of the people "opting out" of vaccination aren't actually making any choice at all -- their idiot moms and dads are.
And that raises another important question: Who the hell are you to make that choice against your kid's interest?
If you choose to expose your kid to potentially lethal illnesses for no other reason than that you bombed biology in high school, I'm going to go ahead and call that child abuse. You, sir or madam, are a shit parent!
Funny thing, this "science." People only want to believe in science when the results align with their political beliefs and ideologies. When they don't, well..."It's wrong!"
ReplyDeleteIf I send my child to school and he or she gets sick because some ass-backward moron didn't get their child vaccinated, it's hard to tell what I'd do. We're not talking about a personal choice issue; we're talking about a public safety issue. It's why you need a license to drive. You can't just crawl behind the wheel whenever you feel like it. There are other people on the roadways.
One thing I've heard is that just because there is no solid link found yet, that doesn't mean there won't be. And to that, I say, "Stop being obtuse. Just because the sun hasn't blown up yet, that doesn't mean it won't. But you don't live your life by such infinitesimal standards." I don't know one person who is scared to go outside because a meteor may fall on their head. It's highly improbable, but not impossible. Yet we live our life playing percentages and assessing risks.
No links shown to date has a strong inference that none will be shown. And as far as some kind of government programming, let it go. The government already knows more about you than you know about you. Bet it. Have they taken away your freedoms yet? Are you in the Hague?

"Vaccinations have been under suspicion for a long time by many health professionals."
ReplyDeleteBullshit
**
"While they have contributed to diminishing many outbreaks and spread of of serious diseases, they have to be studied more closely."
Nonsense.
No human medical intervention has been studied as closely, as intently, for so long as vaccination and immunisation.
**
"Many children have violent reactions to vaccines, and while they are not published both mothers and pediatricians are aware of this."
Bollocks.
A tiny, tiny minority of children have "violent reactions" (by which I presume you mean 'severe') to vaccinations. A tiny percentage of the numbers who would have had severe reactions (including death) to those diseases that the vaccinations prevents.
**
"Vaccinations lower and at times eliminate totally certain of the body's immune responses."
Idiocy.
The bacteria and the viruses used in vaccines are severely weakened or killed, as part of the vaccine manufacturing process. There are far fewer of them than the germs the babies will come into contact with in their normal activities. Even if a child was given ELEVEN vaccines simultaneously, it would only use a thousandth of their immune system.
**
"Whether this facilitates other conditions to develop in the body id not known, but it is suspected."
Where? When? By whom?
**
The situation is this has to be studied but it seems to be a sacred cow that cannot be approached or even questioned or else it causes an illogical hyteria (sic)."
Again this is hysterical nonsense. There has been MASSIVE research into this area, and vaccines have been shown to be massively beneficial. At the start of the twentieth century infection was the cause of more than 40% of all human deaths. Today that figure is around 10% When was the last time you heard of someone dying of Smallpox? Without vaccines, somebody you know would have died of Smallpox. The death rate by infection amongst Americans in 1900 was 800/100,000, by 1980 that figure had fallen to < 50/100,000.
**
"Many doctors have set up different vaccination schedules for children, theu giving the child's body time to develop it's own immune responses as well. "
Again nonsense. See my previous answer.
**
"Notably among these is the Dr. Sears vaccination schedule which professes to bypass the time when the autism may develop. Many people are following this."
THERE IS NO LINK BETWEEN AUTISM AND VACCINATION. RESEARCH AFTER RESEARCH PAPER HAS BEEN PUBLISHED THAT DEMONSTRATES NO LINK WHATSOFUCKING EVER.
Here is a very good demolition of Sears and his ability to parlay idiocy into his financial gain/

"After all, it's much better to have a healthy adult population where their bodies own defenses have protected them from the onslaught of diseases we are seeing now, and paying for now!"

Let's look at some of the most vocal anti-vaccine science deniers. Feel free to point out their right-wing status.
Robert Kennedy Jr.
Robert Kennedy Jr. has authored the book Thimerosal: Let the Science Speak, which argues that the preservative thimerosal, found in some flu vaccines, is harmful to pregnant women and children.
Alicia Silverstone
Silverstone included anti-vaccination passages in her 2014 book The Kind Mama: A Simple Guide to Supercharged Fertility, a Radiant Pregnancy, a Sweeter Birth, and a Healthier, More Beautiful Beginning. "While there has not been a conclusive study of the negative effects of such a rigorous one-size-fits-all, shoot-'em-up schedule, there is increasing anecdotal evidence from doctors who have gotten distressed phone calls from parents claiming their child was 'never the same' after receiving a vaccine," she wrote. "And I personally have friends whose babies were drastically affected in this way."
Bill Maher spoke out against flu vaccinations in 2009: "Why would you let them be the ones to stick a disease into your arm? I would never get a swine flu vaccine or any vaccine. I don’t trust the government, especially with my health.
Billy Corgan
The Smashing Pumpkins frontman came out against vaccinating for H191 in 2009, calling it "suspicious."
“If you follow some of the links I have been supplying as of late, you’ll notice many are focused on the propaganda build up to our day of reckoning with the Swine Flu virus," Corgan said. "I say 'propaganda' because, in my heart, there is something mighty suspicious about declaring an emergency for something that has yet to show itself to be a grand pandemic."
Britney Spears
Britney Spears was spotted at a 2008 fundraiser for Jenny McCarthy's autism charity, which critics say advocates against vaccines.
Hugh Hefner
Hugh Hefner has supported Jenny McCarthy's autism charity.
Jenny McCarthy
Jenny McCarthy is the perhaps the celebrity most synonymous with the anti-vaccine movement, though what she has said has varied over the years.
Jim Carrey
Jim Carrey, who was once married to Jenny McCarthy, joined her crusade.
Rob Schneider
The Saturday Night Live alum is outspoken in his belief that vaccines should not be mandated and that there is a link between vaccines and autism.
Toni Braxton
In her memoir Unbreak My Heart, singer Toni Braxton writes that she wonders if her son's autism was a result of his vaccinations. "Maybe it's just a coincidence that after my son's first MMR vaccine, I began to notice changes in him," she writes.

I speak from experience as a parent and health professional.
Perhaps you have much more personal experience in this matter than I, and thus you speak so vehemently/passionately :)
Either way, I guess it's a very personal issue, but I guarantee you that those of us who are parents want the best for not only our children, but all children.
I don't believe it hurts to delay vaccination for a few months or even weeks if that may help bolster that child's own immune system.
By the way, if you happen to know any late 80's and 90's aged people, as them if they were vaccinated as infants.

To use your example, just like the "too much alcohol makes you drunk" fact, there are variables within that fact.
1. Not every person reacts the same way to alcohol.
2. some people can drink more than others without becoming drunk.
3. Alcohol lowers the bodies level of glucose differently in each individual.
4. And did you know that alcohol increases the levels of estrogen in some males causing them to act effeminately? Fact.
So these same variables are present in everything that affects the human organism, including vaccines.

Hillary was also caught lying a few years ago...
(Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said on Tuesday she made a mistake when she claimed she had come under sniper fire during a trip to Bosnia in 1996 while she was first lady.
In a speech in Washington and in several interviews last week Clinton described how she and her daughter, Chelsea, ran for cover under hostile fire shortly after her plane landed in Tuzla, Bosnia.
Several news outlets disputed the claim and a video of the trip, showed Clinton walking from the plane, accompanied by her daughter. They were greeted by a young girl in a small ceremony on the tarmac and there was no sign of tension or any danger.
http://www.reuters.com/article/2008/03/26/us-usa-politics-clinton-idUSN2540811420080326
(Surprisingly, news outlets despite having a video of the incident didn't dispute the story for 12 years until she was running against Obama)
And lets not forget the "seared in my memory" lie that john kerry told for decades before he was forced to be honest.
There must be a good reason dumbocrats have to lie.
Maybe Field Negro will make the point again it's because they watched foxnews.
