Look at what vaccines were introduced in 1996.

I can offer you all sorts of references that have nothing to do with the government. You, however, want to trust junk science and whatever conspiracies your imagination can fabricate. That’s your choice but these are not the kinds of decisions rational people make.

LOL! The noob has a far better grasp of the subject than you and all you can do is reply with scorn and ridicule? How Alinsky of you.

You're a prime candidate to believe the moon landing was faked. Are you also a truther?

You have no basis for your insults other than the fact that I posted this article and I don’t trust government. Who is it that’s irrational?

Again with insults based on nothing more than I posted this article and I distrust government.

Again, nothing in the articles you linked to has anything to do with Andrew Wakefield and his shoddy study of 12 children that has been used to discredit all vaccines. No, I am not a doctor, and my name isn’t even Jimmy.

Umm, so what? Whether he did or not has nothing to do with the fact that you believe these childhood diseases are "nothing."

Is it "nothing" because these diseases didn't affect you, fortunately, even though many thousands of less fortunate kids die from them around the world every year?

What happens when the idiots here choose not to vaccinate their kids and we have to once again deal with these diseases and the sickness and death they bring? Then will they be "something" to you then?

Grab a brain. Sheesh.

I didn't say it did. I linked to them because of the info on a tainted vaccine. Not everything that's pushed on us is safe. Post 15 said" You do understand that mistakes are made and then covered up, right?

Your post #15 and the subsequent links and references showing no connection between simian virus 40 and the alleged increase in cancers. You don’t trust government? Great. But you think vaccines cause autism when there is absolutely no proof that they do. Not so great.

Do you know what a reference is? They’re at the bottom of the page. Indulge yourself. Would you rather I listed and linked each reference directly and separately? The result is the same.

Where did I say that?

A heavy metal is a member of an ill-defined subset of elements that exhibit metallic properties, which would mainly include the transition metals, some metalloids, lanthanides, and actinides. Many different definitions have been proposed—some based on density, some on atomic number or atomic weight, and some on chemical properties or toxicity.[1] The term heavy metal has been called a “misinterpretation” in an IUPAC technical report due to the contradictory definitions and its lack of a “coherent scientific basis”. Wikipedia

Sorry, but I was alluding to the toxicity which occurs in the brain ...of course, some heavy metals are essential to the brain so I am missing your point...I am not going to bore people with the elements that go into the scientific studies.

To clarify, I do NOT claim to be a scientist. I am a mother, a patriot, and artist. I don’t pretend to be other than that.

I have read numerous articles that scientists have put out—especially concerning child-development. Before I changed my major, child development was it.

Although I may not understand certain “elements”, although at one time I did memorize some of the periodic table, I do trust a variety of scientists to report on their findings in a scientific manner.

Then I listen to my gut. Can I trust this study? Is their a profit motive? Why would Wakefield buck the system when he knows the “rules” on “peer reviews” and grant connections....to getting certain “desired” results. Is their pressure from a large corporation? Is government bought off by anyone? (that can’t ever happen with a virtuous government, huh?)

So you don't believe that something in the vaccine, if not the vaccine itself, is causing autism? Even though you think that safety is sacrificed on the altar of mass production and the use of unsafe adjuvants.

You are so nuanced.

I don’t trust government

You need some supportable facts to argue from, not just "I don't trust the government; the government says X; therefore X must be a lie." That sort of "reasoning" leads to crackpot notions like "the moon landings were faked" and "the 9-11 attacks were a Bush-Cheney conspiracy".

You trust government to have your best interests at heart. I’ll watch.
