I believe there have been studies done on this but I don't know the results.

My friend's son stopped breathing four days after his first whooping cough
vaccine. Luckily, the pediatrician took it seriously and reported it (most
don't after three days) and he also recommended no more whooping cough
vaccines for this child.

I believe the whooping cough vaccine is too dangerous to toy with, so I did
not give it to my youngest child. And, my other children did not have
preschool boosters. My oldest had the high pitched screaming for two hours
after his second whooping cough shot and the doctor wouldn't report it
because it wasn't three hours of screaming (sheesh). Foolishly I consented
to his having the next shot, but luckily he was fine. I have since read that
the high pitched screaming may be a form of encephalopathy.

I believe there is much benefit to reading these anecdotal reports from
parents with children who they feel have been damaged by vaccines.

Back to the vaccination issue for a second. Here is an article I just came
accross in a hard to find place so I thought I would post it. It gives the
whole issue an international perspective as it is from New Zealand.

OUR BABY STOPPED BREATHING!



As dutiful parents, when our first child was born, we got all her shots
with no obvious side affects. Then Sara came along.
It was much different this time. The day after her six-week
immunisation, I went to get something from a box beside her
bed, and glanced at her. She was blue/grey and her eyes were open and
rolled back in her head. She was cold and not
breathing. With my heart in my mouth, I picked her up and shook her.
She gasped. That was the best sound I have ever
heard in my life! She went straight back to sleep, oblivious to my
turmoil. At that time I didn�t know that a large number
of babies who are found not breathing die within 24 hours.

A few weeks earlier I had felt to pray against cot death, and I really
believe this is what God used to save her. Needless
to say, I did not sleep well for the next few days. I called the doctor
and couldn�t get into see him until the next day,
despite my telling the receptionist that it was so urgent. After
checking, he could not find anything obviously wrong with
her. In the meantime, we hired an apnoea monitor to keep an eye on her.
Five days later we got a phone call from the
hospital giving us an appointment in six weeks time! With a lot of
persuasion, Michael managed to get them to bring it
forward to three weeks. But the next day she stopped breathing five
times � one time for about one and a half minutes. I
called the pediatrician and he said to bring her straight into the
hospital.

We spent a week at Timaru hospital, while our daughter had myriads of
tests. There were no answers and we felt they
considered us hypochondriacs! That was until she stopped breathing in a
nurse�s arms. That put the wheels in motion.
We were transferred to Dunedin, three hour�s south, for further tests.
Two weeks later, on Christmas Eve, we were sent
home, knowing nothing, except that she had a slightly abnormal EEG, and
reflux. She was put on medication for both and
we were told to come back the following month.

By January, it became evident that the anti-convulsant she was on was
not reducing the number of apnoeas by enough to
warrant their use so we discontinued them. We were still no closer to
finding an answer.

All these trips were starting to stretch the old pockets, so before the
next appointment we moved to Dunedin. We had
only been there one day and she was admitted early as she had an ear
infection which caused a marked increase in her
apnoeas. She was normally having two to three a day.

She did not have her three-month shot until she was five months, due to
repeated ear infections. The night she had her
shots, she stopped breathing five times � a significant increase. I
called the pediatrician the next morning and he told me
that sometimes the whooping cough vaccine caused that! I wondered why I
had not been warned of this considering her
history. Two months later when she went for her next jab, we omitted
the whooping cough one. She stopped breathing
seven times! This time the pediatrician told me not to worry as one in
200 babies does this. And they don�t tell everyone?
I�ve since met several people with the same story. Some of those babies
are not alive today.

In a New Zealand book of case studies on SIDS it is interesting to note
that a high proportion of cot deaths happened at
six weeks, three months and six months. Do you see the same pattern
that I do? The other interesting thing is that SIDS is
almost unheard of in those under six weeks. It used to be unheard of in
those under two months, before they changed the
immunisation schedule.

I continued researching. Here�s a quote from the book, Vaccination: The
Hidden Facts by Ian Sinclair. "�We began
recording breathing patterns of babies after vaccination. The results
of these recordings were presented to the 2nd
immunisation Conference, held in Canberra, 27-29 May 1991. We
demonstrated that microprocessor records of babies�
breathing after DPT (Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus) injections reveal
a pattern of flare-ups of Stress-Induced Breathing
closely following the dynamics of adreno-cortical activity in an
individual under stress and as observed and recorded by
Selye.

We also demonstrated that flare-ups of Stress-Induced Breathing in
babies after administration of the DPT vaccine occur
characteristically on certain days even though the amplitude of the
flare-ups varies from child to child. For 70 babies who
succumbed to cot death, although babies could die on any day after DPT
injection, there were significantly more deaths
on the days that closely correlated with flare-ups of Stress-Induced
Breathing after DPT injections� Yet, babies may
and do die for up to 25 or more days after vaccination, and still as a
direct consequence of the toxic effects of the
vaccines� Our conclusion is that if vaccination were to be suspended,
the cot death rate would be at least halved."

Sara is now six years and occasionally she still �forgets� to breathe
in her sleep. She still needs to be monitored every
night. Sometimes she stops breathing long enough that she cannot walk
properly the next morning.

Here are some links that may help you understand why some people choose not
to vaccinate. I have personally vaccinated my children, not really having
been read up on the subject at the time. My youngest was hospitalized at 2
months old after a vaccination and had to undergo spinal taps, etc. He
fortunately, turned out fine. We did have a dog die after a vaccination. If I
were to do it again I would probably selectively vaccinate.

Sheila:
Yes, Imovax is the human rabies vaccine I was referring to. I've received
it; matter of fact, was among the trial studies when it came out in the
early 80's. At the time, we (my classmates and I; student guinea pigs, you
know) were very grateful to not have to have the duck embryo vaccine, which
was much more painful and more susceptible to reaction. Cheaper, though.

In general, viral vaccines are propagated on cell lines; if you read through
the others, there's monkey fetal cells, or kidney cells, or chick embryo,
etc. Embryonic cells are best for propagation and there is less chance of
vaccine reaction if you stay within the same species that will receive the
vaccine. Please note, I am not defending the decision to use diploid cell
lines, only pointing out why they're used. The vaccines that don't use cell
lines are bacterial vaccines, which don't need them.

They kicked a helluva lot of people out of the military over the antrax
vaccine. If you join the military, you do in fact sign away some of your
rights regarding health care. As active duty military, you do NOT have the
right to refuse treatment. You can request a second opinion, but the
military has the final say. My husband was vaccinated, because he wanted to
keep his job. Period. JAG (Judge Advocate General) corps will tell you
that, too.
