Huh, just when I thought my uncle Charlie showing me his uncircumcised penis couldn't get any more awkward.

You can thank our wonderful president and all the illegals he keeps letting in for all these greats illnesses and old time diseases that are suddenly rearing their ugly head!

There is shit coming into this country we haven't send or had in decades.

I'm sure Rickets and Polio are next!

I'll include an excerpt of a text I wrote regarding vaccination and the dreaded autism...

-----------------------------------------

As always, one should take anything one hears (especially on the internet) with a grain of salt. I will, on occasion, use government websites as a source—as long as I can verify the source material itself. I will not be quoting blogs. I will not be quoting personal opinion. Data. Beautiful, published data.

As such, I’ll be sourcing all of my material. The best material to quote is peer-reviewed, unbiased and hypothesis-driven research that has been published. Unfortunately, not all of you will have access to the papers I quote— they are found using pubmed (http://www.ncbi.

.nih.gov/pubmed/). I do not expect that this will assuage all of your fears, nor will it be comprehensive. As a graduate student, I don’t exactly have the time to find everyone’s pet theory and debunk/clarify the causal link.

In 1998, an English surgeon/researcher published (in the prestigious journal Lancet) a paper entitled “Ileal-lymphoid-nodular hyperplasia, non-specific colitis, and pervasive developmental disorder in children.” In this paper, he claimed that autism and colitis were caused by the mercury component in Thermisol.

[ASIDE: For those of you without a basic knowledge in how a vaccine works, here is a link (http://www.niaid.nih.gov/topics/vacc...s/Default.aspx). Mercury is used as an adjuvant, or something that activates the immune system. Your bodies contain two ‘layers’ of immunity, innate immunity and acquired immunity (active immunity—cell-mediated immunity, by T-cells and humoral immunity, by B-cells). As an aside, those that are immunodeficient are not immunized because there is too large a risk of averse reaction to vaccines and it may make them sick.]

However, it’s worth noting that neither of his claims was substantiated. Great claims require great evidence. For over a decade, researchers from around the world attempted to replicate his results (he, himself, was unable to replicate his results). The original paper was retracted and the researcher, Andrew Wakefield, was found to have been paid by a law firm that was going to use his study to sue the manufacturers of vaccines (conflict of interest, anyone?) Most of his co-authors withdrew their names from the study in 2004, yet the damage had already been done. In England, the incidences of Measles, which had been eliminated previously by stringent vaccination, has made a rapid comeback (http://adc.bmj.com/content/98/10/752.long).

Others are concerned that throughout history, vaccines have been shown to harm children and use this logic as the determining factor for not vaccinating their children. There are several types of vaccines, vaccines that contain a killed virus and those that contain a live, attenuated virus. In the USA before 2000, the common form of polio vaccine was the attenuated version. In our bodies, this form would very rarely revert to the virulent form of polio and paralysis would occur, which obviously is not what you want to happen to your child (I certainly don’t). However, we no longer use this form in this country. This vaccine, for what it’s worth, can be taken by mouth, and has been deemed safe by a medical researchers throughout the world. This tells me that, in spite of being safe, we are doing our best in this country to ensure that your children will get the best care and will be statistically less likely to get side-effects of vaccines. Certainly, there are those that will have allergic reactions to a vaccine. That’s why you get vaccines at your doctor’s office and not from the internet. Your medical professionals are incredibly capable of handling medical emergencies from the sniffles to a toxic reaction to mercury (that is no longer in Thermisol). By the way—Re: the new version of the polio vaccine? NOBODY has gotten polio from the new vaccine.

When I was a child, we got the pertussis vaccine. Research tells me that there were a range of side-effects (http://www.ncbi.

.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1748773/) from fever to fainting. After 1990, however, they switched to a new pertussis vaccine that has milder side-effects. It’s important (at least to me) to weigh the possible consequences of vaccines. Generally, the side-effects are 1/1000 kids will experience prolonged crying due to mild pain. 1/20,000 will get bowel blockage (http://informahealthcare.com/doi/abs...84.2014.942223). 1/1000 children who contract measles will get encephalitis, and 3/2000 will die. 1/2000 who get whooping cough will die (this is especially deadly to children). These diseases are completely, utterly preventable.
