I seem to recall a thread here along those lines. It made a compelling argument to back up what you're saying.
It would be great if we could simply trust the gov't to tell us the truth about vaccines, but they have a piss-poor track record when it comes to the medical care of servicemen (Agent Orange, Gulf War Syndrome, Nuclear testing in the 50s, Tuskegee Experiments, etc....)
Unfortunetly, you are quite correct in all that.
