<<when i learned that the federal government has established a fund to
'compensate' victims and families for injuries and deaths from
vaccinations.
(it must've happened a few times)>>
so very sad. Also, there are MANY more cases that never get 'officially'
blamed on vaccines, since the medical community has every resource under
the sun to blame an injury or death on some other source. It is very
hard to get any doctor/hospital/whatever to blame a vaccine, even if it's
blatently obvious.
I'm not neccessarily anti-vaccine (we do selected vaccines, on a delayed
schedule) but I am very wary of blindly trusting the government to decide
for me when the best time to vaccinate is. It has little to do with when
the vaccine is the most effective, and more to do with how convenient it
is for the medical community to chart it.
By delaying my children's tetnus shot (and ONLY the tetenus, no D or P
with it!) to after a year, they only needed one and not the standard 3
(or is it 4?) doses that most infants get. works for me.

Hello! I am just curious -to the families out there who have
vaccine-induced autistic children- do you know which vaccines caused
this? And were any warnings pertaining to this given? I don't mean to
sound naive but I had never heard of this happening. Any info would be
appreciated. Thanks - Sharon

Sharon, any of the vaccines can give your children vaccine induced autism or worse. Many children die every day or are harmed in many other ways daily from vaccines. If you would like to email me personally I can give you more places to find this information out for yourself.

Hello Rachel!! Yes, I am interested in those sites. Thanks so much

Hi Sharon.
Rachel had many vaccines that fateful day, so I don't know which one exactly, but it doesn't really matter because it can happen with any of them.
I have about 50,000 (only a slight exaggeration) links to info about the dangers of vaccines which I would be happy to pass along, if you're interested.
For now, I'll just send alond a list of vaccine ingredients. As you read them, think about if you yourself would drink a concoction of this stuff, and yet we are injecting these poisons directly into our childrens little bodies. It really is a crime.
