Obama: 'Get Your Kids Vaccinated'
The Weekly Standard ^ | 2/2/2015 | DANIEL HALPER

Posted on 02/02/2015 8:05:13 AM PST by Jan_Sobieski

"I understand that there are families that in some cases are concerned about the effect of vaccinations. The science is, you know, pretty indisputable. We've looked at this again and again. There is every reason to get vaccinated, but there aren't reasons to not," said Obama.

"You should get your kids vaccinated. It's good for them, but we should be able to get back to the point where measles effectively is not existing in this country."

I personally know about 5 families who had perfectly healthy blue-eyed babies until their two year shots. Now, they have autistic children who suffer neurological problems.

As long as you're making correlations, it sounds to me like having blue eyes and knowing you might be causing these kids to become autistic.

I wish! But then we would need one to protect us from the Rino’s as well. To many vaccinations needed these days...

“The science is, you know, pretty indisputable.”


“The Science” has taken on a divine connotation with the left, has it not?

“most” is the risk that every parent has to weigh

will your kid be among the “most” or among the “unlucky few” who develop a vax reaction... and then maybe worse

What I saw with my own 17 yr old autistic son was disturbing. He is about finished with the prescribed vax regime but I will never have him get more than one shot at a time, ever again

Almost ever yuppie or muppie Mom knows a family with an autistc child and surely the teachers see it a lot.

Agreed!

A few words to all “Dr. Jonas Edward Salk”!

When I was 8 years old I had one friend living in an Iron Lung!
Another buddy 6 years old lying in a bed , body cast from chest to ankles with rods holding his legs apart . He was that way for most of a year.
The people(doctors -scientists), that work to save lives, can’t cure stupid!

Very funny Dr. Jimmy. The 5 children also had adverse reactions after the shots (high fevers and other complications). I will continue to put faith in the God that brought me out of the womb (and my many healthy children).

In the end it will be God or Government. Jesus or Caesar.

There was a time when our children were vaccinated against the 10 (or so) big deadly diseases. We’re now up to a cocktail of 50 or more vaccinations. I’m not against vaccinating for smallpox, measles, and the like. I don’t trust the government to protect my child’s welfare on the rest. You can do some considerable damage that can’t possibly have been long-term tested with such a drug cocktail on infants. When you’re dealing with the “population-control” crowd, I don’t put anything past them.

” I would never tell parents not to have kids get their shots, however are you so sure to put your family’s health in the hands of a government committed to population control (where 1/60 children are autistic after vaccinations)?”

I see, you are an adherent to the Jenny McCarthy School of Vaccination Theory.

Most unvax kids are healthy because of the majority that have had vax

Most people are healthy because they wash their hands after they touch something dirty and if their doctors do the same—and if they stay away from sewage. That's why the West is healthier than poor countries, and why people who are are educated are healthier than those who are not, especially the poor.

Historically, a few vaccines have had a big effect on eradicating a few particular diseases. But we can't seriously entertain the idea that our health as a nation depends on newborn infants starting on a battery of scores of shots that lasts until your final flu shot at the assisted-living facility. There are new, mandated shots added every couple of years. Why haven't life spans, especially infant survival rates, skyrocketed at the same rate?

Vaccines have a cost-benefit ratio like any other product—in this case, like any other government-mandated product supplied by a subsidized industry largely controlled by the State. Why should reality be different in this case?

I really do not believe you can get autism from vacines.

Wow...you divined Jenny McCarthy from my post. Very creative...but wrong. If your kids are vaccinated, you should have no worries, right? They got the government injection (golden ticket). So what is the problem?

God also promises to provide. Does that mean it would be wise to quit our jobs and lounge about all day waiting for food to drop from the sky?

If we have within our means to do something for ourselves without begging for divine intervention, it might be the responsible thing to do to just do it.

Just curious: Were there any medical professionals involved with your birth and that of your children, or did you all just pop out at home?

God provides for healing and wholeness via medcine, including vacines.
