Bill Gates: Vaccine-autism link 'an absolute lie'

As the mother of 3 young children, this issue came up for me and my husband when it came time for vaccinations and immunizations. My husband is from India and has seen the damage diseases can do, especially to children, so we had no problem making the decisions to get all 3 of our kids complete vaccinations/immunizations...I have also heard horror stories online over the years regarding folks who chose NOT to immunize, and then had some tragic results. :-(

I wonder if Bill Gates were *forced* to give some of his billions to 'help' other people (ie Obama's ultimate plan), would it seem as charitable as the man donating so much money to charities and causes like this *of his own free will*? Capitalism works, Obama! And there can be wonderful side benefits as well!

Bill Gates needs to read a book called, “The Vaccination Crisis”.

[Arm_Bears]

I wish I had a lot of money. Then I could be an expert on any subject I chose—In this case, epidemiology.

[DTA]

BIll Gates is no philantrophist. He invests wisely.

Less useless eaters, more resources for the select few.

Vacccines are not the problem. Adjuvants to vaccines are.

[MindBender26]

The perp scientist who published the original study has been shown to have cooked the books, was paid by trial lawyers to do so, and no one ever could duplicate his work.

His work was so bad his medical license has now been suspended in the UK.

[surfer]

Bill Gates has jumped on the Ted Turner Express to insanity....

[Wurlitzer]

MindBender26 you got this spot on correct.

To all, regardless of position on this subject, investigate the low life scum who started this lie.

I hope no children died because some people listened to this maggot. Unfortunately, I know children did die from lack of vaccinations.

[starlifter]

People should indeed read The Vaccination Crisis.

Then run right out and get every vaccination they can for themselves and their families.

That book is an absurd fairy tale.

Eradicate the few that fit that profile -- ringworm and polio

Ringworm? WTH? It's a fungal infection of the skin. I've got an idea, Bill. Quit trying to wipe out jock itch, and focus on bringing an end to malaria or hookworm, would ya?

[Red Badger]

I think he meant another type of worm.............

[massgopguy]

Well, first you have to convince a large corporation that you own a Disk Operating System. Then you have to weasel the rightful owners of it to sell it to you without them finding out that a large corporation wants to buy it. Of course you’ll need a real engineer to develop a desk top computer that will run it and hope that someone at another large corporation finds no use for “ordinary” people to have computers.

[Red Badger]

I think he meant Guinea Worm:

[gusty]

The idea that vaccines cause autism shows that we as a species have not progressed that far away from witch doctors. You see it a lot, people discount the obvious and believe any charlatan that comes up with an elaborate story. Global warming, vaccines are bad, 9/11 Trutherism, UFOs, thousands more.

[kingpins10]

Thimerosal and mercury has been linked to all kinds of health problems. Many of the most vocal opponents of vaccinations are doctors, and many will not even administer them.

Vaccinations have even been linked to many diseases including Crohn’s.

Just one of many links I have saved:

[CholeraJoe]

Hookworm is the obvious choice. It’s the most common cause of iron-deficiency anemia in the world.

[CholeraJoe]

It could also be Onchocerciasis which causes River Blindness

[aruanan]

We have to do three things in parallel: Eradicate the few that fit that profile -- ringworm and polio;

A vaccine for ringworm? I'm sure high school wrestlers of the world will be thankful.

[Claud]

I’m kinda on the fence on this (mostly because I haven’t done any research myself and frankly I don’t trust either side). But if either of you or anyone else in the pro-vaccine camp would be so kind as to answer a question—

Has any good research been done regarding metal toxicity in vaccines? Specifically what are the effects on children?

[GeronL]

They might want to check what else he is putting in the vaccine,he could be trying to sterilize the world.

[Shannon]

Vacccines are not the problem. Adjuvants to vaccines are.

That's my understanding too. So technically what Gates says about vaccines/autism is correct. He just leaves out the major issue: adjuvants. Too bad he's not addressing that.
