I won't even let the doctor give me flu shot and it drives him nuts seeing that I have COPD, unstable angina, came up with eczema at the age of 72 for the first time in my life, and have insomnia. That insomnia is why I am sometimes on F.R. at 5am... But when some of the grandkids were babies I was amazed at the amount of vaccines they received as infants.
When my kids were infants it was DPT, polio, small pox and the last child didn't even get a small pox vaccination cause the doctor said there was a greater chance of having a bad reaction than getting small pox as there had been no case of it in the US for years...She is in her 40's and still has not had a vaccination for small pox. It would only be necessary if she were to leave the country....
That is the reason I am not interested in getting into a disagreement on vaccines, pro and con. :O)
Time for my evening coffee and cigarette...have a great evening... GG
Yet you happily post on a thread that has the word vaccines in the title?
And then you spout nonsense about kids getting too many vaccinations, without any facts to support your case, only feelings.
I seems like I spend my entire life allaying parent's fears concerning vaccines because they "read something on the internet". It is ridiculous that people feel the need to weigh in on vital matters of health with no background, reasearch or facts....
.....only feelings.
If you don't want your beliefs questioned vigorously, don't post them.
.She is in her 40's and still has not had a vaccination for small pox. It would only be necessary if she were to leave the country....

They stopped giving out the Smallpox vaccine in 1972. And smallpox was declared eradicated in 1980. There is no vaccine necessary.
