The U.S. Government’s Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends 70 doses of 16 different vaccines between birth and age 18. All 50 states mandate between 30 and 45 doses of vaccines just to enter your child into daycare. So, how safe and effective are they?

Mary Holland, co author of the book, “Vaccine Epidemic,” writes about the expert advice from authorities in the fields of ethics, science, medicine, and business, who all call for reform in the compulsory mandating of vaccinations, and a reevaluation of their safety. “At the end of the day, because every vaccination carries real risks… it has to be the individual with their healthcare practitioner that makes an informed choice,” she said, adding that her objection is not to the vaccines, but the “forcing of the products on children or people.” Often, if they don’t accept the vaccine, they can’t go to work or school, she noted.

I believe that individuals should have the right to refuse vaccines without having to withdraw from employment, military service, or remove their children from school. Clearly, this is coercion. When there is an epidemic disease and the only way to combat it is with a vaccine, then, of course, by all means this is a valid option. But most of the vaccines our children are battered with are for diseases that are no longer threats in the U.S. but only in third world countries.

Vaccines can cause personal injury, even death. This we know for certain. One individual who received a flu shot was paralyzed because of it and this was proven in a court of law. We don’t force people to take aspirin, penicillin, or any other drugs that have risks. Vaccines do contain risks just like any other drug. But other drugs are not forced on the public. Pharmaceutical companies have paid out sanctions for marketing the vaccines illegally. That’s something you don’t hear in the everyday news.

Vaccine-induced immunity is still only temporary immunity. Up to seven injections to one infant at one time can be legally given. In nature, you certainly wouldn’t expect to be exposed to seven diseases all at the same time. Autism and severe bowel disorders among children have increased dramatically since the advent of forced vaccinations. The second most toxic element on earth (next to plutonium) is mercury and it has been a staple ingredient (as thimerosol) in vaccines for decades. There are between 5 and 11 different antigens in just one vaccine. Multiply that times the onslaught of injections and you get an “anti-body war” going on inside the child’s sensitive immune system.

So, what is the motivation for doctors recommending vaccines? The government promotes them mainly because of the Big Pharma lobbyists who donate to the campaigns of Senators and Congresspeople. Scientists who do vaccine research also get plenty of funding from the pharmaceutical industry. So, the bottom line is; everyone (except for the child) wins if there are more vaccines.

Mary Holland believes that there should be a Gold Standard study that compares children who have not been administered vaccines to those who have been administered vaccines. Then we can accurately determine their overall health outcome. This would be an unbiased and fair baseline study. Unfortunately it has already been proposed to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Their response: It would be unethical to do that because it would deprive certain children from vaccinations.
