This is why my daughter, after my showing her various documentation of the harm early and grouping of vaccines can cause, has decided to go with an alternative vaccine schedule. My grandson will still get most, not all, of recommended vaccines but when SHE decides when they are needed or appropriate. This will be his schedule ~
1. No vaccines with thimerisol (mercury)
2. No live virus vaccines (except smallpox should it recur)
3. Beginning at age 2, one a month and in succession until each series is done, doing Titers after each vaccine to test for immunity ~ Pertussis (5 doses)(acellular), Diptheria (5 doses), Tetanus (5 doses), Polio (5 doses)(Salk, cultured in human cells)(all using the brand with no mercury or cow tissue), HIB (4 doses)(brand with no aluminum)
4. MMR at school age with separate shots for each and doing Titers after each vaccine to test for immunity (2 possible boosters)
5. Hep B (3 doses), Hep A at 5 years old and spaced due to aluminum
6. Rotavirus (3 doses) at 15 weeks using RotaTeq brand and being completed before 8 months of age
I am not anti-vaccine, just against giving multiple vaccines at once. Yes, this means my grandson will be at the doctors office at times once a month for a while, but I'd rather help take him for multiple visits than take a chance on a irreversible negative reaction.
Excellent-—except I would never have children get the Hep B shot EVER unless they had an affected mother, of course.
