Should you stick to the Center for Disease Control and American Academy of Pediatrics’ recommended plan for baby’s shots or go for a modified schedule? Check out what two doctors have to say and decide for yourself.
There’s a demand for alternative schedules. Many new parents feel overwhelmed by the number of vaccines given to young babies today; 24 doses are given in the first year alone. When parents realize the medical establishment is trying to push unnecessary vaccines on them, they begin to question the entire process. The result is that parents simply want to vaccinate more carefully, and be smarter about it, instead of blindly following the system.
There’s a Well-Planned Alternative
The alternative schedule [I outline in The Vaccine Book] is designed to provide infants with only the vaccines that protect against diseases that pose a legitimate threat to them. And it does so in a timely manner, so infants aren’t left unprotected against anything that might pose a risk. It provides on-time protection against whooping cough, rotavirus, Hib disease and pneumococcal disease—four illnesses that can be potentially fatal for infants (although fatalities are extremely rare in the US). The CDC schedule gives these four vaccines at two, four and six months (along with Hep B and Polio). My alternative schedule staggers them: whooping cough and rotavirus at two, four and six months; Hib and pneumococcal at three, five and seven months; Hep B is delayed for a few years; and polio isn’t started until nine months.

That’s it’s almost 20 year track record. Probably better than your plan .... whatever that is.
Some of the vaccines they pushed, like the one for hepatitis and HPV were of a *best to it because you never know*, they *MIGHT* get exposed some day.
Well sure but since there is no air borne transmission of those diseases but rather that it’s behavior related, I refused them for the kids.
And immunizing a baby AT BIRTH, is unconscionable, IMO, along with the 2, 4, and 6 month *boosters*. That’s far too many shots given to a child in their lifetime.
Claiming the HPV is an anticancer vaccine gives people a false sense of security.
How many women will forego Pap smears because they think they are *safe* from cancer, only to find out too late that, ooops, they aren’t and now it’s so advanced that it’s untreatable?
Well , I hope they vote Republican, or the “well educated” may be a misnomer.
Actually I think they all vote conservative.
Snarky today aren’t we?
Hey b was originally developed for sexually active. The brainstorm was to give it to newborns because ghetto babies cannot be guaranteed to have regular Healthcare. So front load them with their shots.
So nice middle-class babies are now on the Vax schedule best suited for people who do not have regular Healthcare.
Interesting timing, eh?
Thanks for posting.
“although fatalities are extremely rare in the US”
Thank you vaccines
It is one thing to have a discussion with anyone about childhood vaccines. It can descend into a “you’re an antivaxxer” or “you’re a big pharma shill” sort of argument.
But whenever this CDC schedule is pulled up, my breath gets taken away. Further, there is a bit of an optical illusion created by the uneven horizontal scale….not every box is the same amount of time. The boxes to the left represent MONTHS and the leftward boxes are YEARS.
Then, as you note, there is the shot for HPV. It seems to have come out of nowhere.
I had warts as a child..(1950-60s)..I survived fine without HPV...
Daycares have spread hepB. All it takes is on chronically infected immigrant child or worker.
Biden has imported millions of them.
No matter what they tell you, the main modes of transmission are not the only modes.
Our country is no longer safe or clean.
I can’t fix stupid. However, the purpose of HPV vaccine is to prevent HPV related cancers. Not just cervical, but oral and neck cancers.
there are other ways of preventing HPV related cancers.
I can’t help that you can’t see the obvious fact that parents can’t lock their kids in a basement and prevent all unapproved sexual behavior or criminal victimization.
You immunize them before the horses are out of the barn.
They do that because the most common transmission in children is from the mother. Because parents lie about drug use and sexual behavior.
Even if the mother is tested clean in the hospital it doesn’t mean she won’t become infected after they leave the hospital either through her own behavior or by a partner and then transmit it to her child where it may spend the next 50 years silently destroying their liver.
HPV vaccine study finds zero cases of cervical cancer among women vaccinated before age 14
Not going to pinkie promise, but the studies are looking pretty damn good.
Oh really? Do tell.
Ping!
How about not engaging in activities that spread HPV for one thing.
And getting regular PAP tests doesn’t prevent it, but can catch it early where it’s mostly treatable.
And you can GUARANTEE the vaccine will work against ALL strains of HPV and address all other causes of cancer as well?
