My dad had an autoimmune reaction to a vaccine given by the military that made him unable to continue working, or even walk up and down stairs or stay standing for long periods of time (it's better now, since there are newer medicines that control his symptoms with fewer side effects). It turns out they had given him and the other people on the base much higher doses and with far shorter intervals between shots than is recommended. So I have a legitimate reason to be cautious of vaccines. And you know what? Even with that my whole family keeps up to date on our vaccines, because we know that what happened to my dad wasn't the fault of vaccine, it was doctors trying to rush things and breaking protocols that are in place for a reason. I have no sympathy for people who claim that vaccines are bad for people because a TV celebrity told them so. I don't let them off the hook with the excuse that they are just ignorant. They are willfully ignoring tremendous amounts of data that almost irrefutably prove them wrong, and they put their lives, their children's lives, and everyone else's lives at risk because of it.

It’s also frustrating as a parent when people com at us from three sides of “your child has a speech delay because of you” and “your child is like this because you vaccinated them” and them “well we don’t know why she’s not talking but we’ll say autism for now”. Grouping diagnoses together as a best guess is damaging too. But by no means is that making me not vaccinate my kid. I’ll love her no matter what. But we shouldn’t need a diagnoses for early interventions. Everyone neurotypical or neurodivergent deserve help. I hope your parents support you as you are 🥰

[@Soleilune1995]

I definitely agree with that on an individual basis, but in terms of society, if there IS something responsible for higher rates of autism (not vaccines, obviously), then it's probably best to do something about it, since I'm not sure how well society as a whole would function if everyone was autistic... Not that there is anything wrong with it, but just that if everyone was that way, it might make things more difficult. As far as I am aware, I am not on the current autism spectrum, but I'm also not "neurotypical" considering that I do have ADHD and OCD, and I can only imagine how dysfunctional society would be if none of us could concentrate on anything or go a day without obsessive anxiety, where even the medication to offset one of them worsens the symptoms of the other... It's a source of suffering for me personally, and if I could choose to have a "normal" brain, then I would rather just do that. But, unfortunately, it's not a choice.

Countless amounts of parents witness their child develop normally walking and talking then losing all previous abilities and going into seizures and banging their head off the walls directly after the mmr vaccine. Have you ever seen the congressional hearings about vaccines n autism? So if your pro vaccines point me to one study they did as a control study, 50 get it 50 dont wheres it at? Every drug has to go threw that testing why not vaccines? Ever heard of vaccine court? Vaccine companies are immune to being sued, cost the tax payers billions to pay the vaccine injured families, congress will tell you that! Use your brain, 1 in 5 kids have a learning disability!! America has the #1 infant death rate within a year of being born and 1 day olds aswell, we lead the world with infant deaths!!!! Oh yea guess what, we give the most vaccines in the world!!!!

So to say that all parents with children with autism want to “cure’” their child or children with autism, is so extremely stereotypical, it makes me sick! Also, news flash for you: autistics grow up with autism. This disorder is lifelong. Therefore, the individual with autism’s quality of life can and is usually diminished just as soon as they turn 18 years, and want to experience life; I.e., moving out, and expiring holding a job, or go to college. A good parent aids in finding the very best quality of life for their child (now adult) with autism.

Even the autistics who society see as severely disabled, the ones who are nonverbal and have learning disabilities, have by and large STRONGLY agreed that if there were a cure for autism they wouldn't want it (link at bottom of comment). We autistics, in general (and those of us who haven't been programmed to hate ourselves), like being autistic. It's not a disease, it's a state of being. It's who we are. Yes, there are challenges, I would never dream of implying that there aren't. I know how hard it was for my parents to raise me, and I know what it's like to be disabled because society wasn't built for me. I know. But that doesn't make it inherently a bad thing. Most autistics, given the right support and the ability to love themselves and play to their strengths, will grow up to be functional, happy people. In fact, many of us who don't, find ourselves struggling BECAUSE we've been taught to try to not be autistic and we're fighting ourselves in a world where we need to be supporting ourselves as much as possible to succeed. To summarize my second point - again, I am NOT saying that autism isn't a difficulty. It can be disabling (though not always), and it can definitely be extremely hard on caregivers. I know firsthand. But painting it as a 100% problem or bad outcome instead of what it actually is - a way of being that isn't inherently bad but comes with it's own strengths and challenges - is not accurate nor is it helpful to all of us autistics who are FREQUENTLY harmed by people hating or fearing autism. Link to the survey of LOTS of autistic and non-autistic people that resulted in nonverbal autistics/autistics with learning disabilities, agree that they don't want a cure: autisticnotweird.com/2018survey/

@John Monday Please read resources from actually autistic people, such as Autisticnotweird, The Thinking Person's Guide to Autism, Musings of an Aspie, and so many more. Here's a survey that specifically checked how "low functioning" autistics feel about a cure. We don't want it. autisticnotweird.com/2018survey/ I cannot explain why, so please look into others who have already articulated it. You've just told me that if people like me can be prevented, why not. Because I'm a person, I'm valid, and so is every other autistic person. You can't separate autism from the person's individuality. And if that's not good enough for you, how about because most actually autistic individuals LIKE being autistic, or at the very least love our autistic selves, including what you label as "low functioning". Listen to the people who are actually living through the lens of autism, who are actually experiencing it firsthand.

Jun Gleno honestly they’d be making more money by not having vaccines and just letting people get sick. $5 shot vs $5000 medical bill...

[@angolangel]

I really understand this. I have always been very analytical and science-minded, and always knew I would vaccinate my children without hesitation. That is, until I became pregnant. Last month I had to make a decision about getting a flu shot. It seemed like the obvious thing to do. It is not only deemed safe for pregnancy, but is highly recommended for pregnant women by the CDC. When my baby is about a month old, I'll have to take her on a long train ride. This unavoidable travel will potentially expose her to this year's flu (which can be deadly for babies). I want to keep her safe, and it's been shown that newborns (who cannot be vaccinated against the flu themselves until 6 months) receive their mother's immunity when she's vaccinated while pregnant. So it was a no-brainer, right? Only it wasn't... I, of all people, struggled enormously in finding the will to follow through with this vaccination, for pretty much all the reasons covered in this video. I was responsible for protecting this precious life growing inside me. It seemed riskier to introduce vaccine chemicals to protect against something we may not even be exposed to. I was healthy when I went in for the shot. If something did go wrong, I knew I would feel worse if it was the result of something I did (get a shot) than something I didn't (in the case that she would catch the flu). I did some research, and though I could see that the overwhelming medical consensus was that I should have the shot, I also found several online articles and forums where people wrote about how they got this vaccine and then miscarried or had a stillbirth the following week. I know better than to count anecdotes as data, but I almost walked out of the doctor's office without the shot. Still, in the end, my reason overcame my emotion and I took the vaccination. Afterwards I went home and cried, still worried I'd made the wrong choice. For the record, my baby survived and has continued to grow and to behave normally in utero. All tests indicate she's in perfect health. She will be born any day now, and she will be immune to the flu. As with all preventative measures, I will never know what the alternative might have been. I'll probably forget about the shot altogether. I'm unlikely to write a blog post about how I got the flu shot during pregnancy and literally nothing happened (a factor that may contribute to availability bias, which could be interesting to discuss in future videos on this topic). But I'm glad I followed through. As hard as it will be, for all reasons covered in this video, I will keep getting my child vaccinated as she grows up. I will have to put my reason ahead of my fear for the ultimate well-being of my child, and for the well-being of other people she'll encounter as she grows up. I hope this video helps other parents see where bias is clouding their judgment, so we can all make better decisions for our kids and for society at large.

[@CalmQueenKey]

angolangel *You are amazing!*

[@HeartSongPony]

You are beautiful and strong, mama. I struggled too. But not with autism worries. My friend works in daycare and has seen kids suffer with the side effects of vaccines. There are mild reactions like fever, vomiting, etc, but in rare cases people can get paralysis, get extreme allergic reactions, or die. But, really, the chance of a baby dying from measels is *significantly* higher than my daughter being crippled from a vaccine. There is something about the fear of holding your dead baby and knowing you did it to them that is absolutely consuming and immobilizing.

[@BradR89]

You can't be immune to the flu. Its is constantly evolving. The CDC basically takes a stab in the dark and says this is the strain that will hit this year, and they vaccinate for that strain. In 2016, the flu vaccine proved to only be 8% effective. They were wrong. The flu vaccine is the dumbest vaccine ever.

[@yunseaweed]

@@BradR89 No, we cannot be constantly immune to a current version of the flu, but the immune system remembers what illnesses you HAVE caught previously, INCLUDING previous versions of the flu. Basically, after getting one version of that disease, your body is immune to it forever. Just because the flu vaccine in 2016 proved to be 8% correct doesn't mean that all other flu vaccines will be as ineffective and hey, though I'm not sure how many lives were affected (I'm sorry for all that), we'll most likely not have to deal with that strain ever again. And besides, humans grow from past mistakes.

[@MonsterEnergyDrinkerer]

Thank you for improving our herd immunity! Rest assured that your child has benefitted from your decision. As a person who has seen people undergo chemotherapy, I can understand how terrified and helpless you can feel when you no longer have an immune system to protect you, and you and your future child will help protect and save these people.

To that person I ask, "When was the last time you heard of someone getting smallpox? So many people don't understand how science works. When they see a study that supports their ideas, they don't look at the study with skepticism.

Because while a professional can usually identify autism in children when they are still less than a year old, laymen don't realize something is really off until around 3-5 years old when the child may even seriously regress in developing. Living in the medieval ages and your child appearing to suddenly change in personality was probably all sorts of terrifying and inexplicable, and assuming they were replaced wasn't farfetched with their knowledge.

[@emilyboyland2680]

Goodness me. I wasn't going to comment on this, but the comments really made me feel like I have to step in. The anti-vax movement is absolutely ridiculous. I am a support worker for adults with learning disabilities and severe autism, and I have never met such incredible people. So here is what I gather from the anti vaccination side: You believe that if you vaccinate your children against diseases that have and will kill those who are unprotected, you will save your child from getting disorders like autism. Let's think about this for a second, Not everyone who is vaccinated is autistic, and you want to avoid autism. Autism is often portrayed as this massive disability that makes everyone miserable, unable to live life to the fullest, etc. In most cases, you won't even be able to tell who has and hasn't got autism. In fact, a lot of people with autism don't even know they have it- it's usually so minor! But let's say vaccines do cause autism, and they do give a very small percentage of people autism. You could choose NOT to vaccinate your kid, which puts them at risk greatly from infection that could disabilitate, or kill them, and by the time they are in hospital, there is very little the doctors can do to cure the kid. The child could very easily remain permanently or long-term ill or disabled, or even die, because you believed an injection that would have stopped this, could have a teeny tiny chance of causing minor developmental disorders. Like I said, i support people with learning disabilities and they have better lives than me! They're independent, can go where they want, and they're happy. The anti vaxxers are ridiculous in my opinion and don't seem to have a full grasp of what autism is. Vaccines contain toxins? So does most food you eat. All those preservatives, dear me :(( Contains metals? So does a lot of fruit....?? Vaccines are a weakened version of the disease that gets into your body, and because it's so weak, it can't damage you. Your body then learns, and remembers the virus in case you get infected with the real thing. If vaccinations cause autism, measles, the common cold, and a lot of other viruses and infections will cause autism too, right? Please do some bloody research and stop picking out the "facts" you get from biased media to support your own claim. Also... if the government are hiding the "truth" about vaccines, how on earth does that benefit them? In fact if vaccines caused autism, and a percentage of those people went into care, wouldn't they essentially be paying for..... Nothing?

[@meyesme9151]

@@jasonchu4400 there are extensive videos explaining why vaccines have aluminum and thimerosal.... I'm not wasting my time typing it all out for you to read. Now why are people "suddenly" having autism after 15 years? Easy, because they were not diagnosed as children. Female and high-functioning male autists are similar enough to neurotypical people that they are not recognized as neurodivergent. Especially women. 4 males are diagnosed with autism for every 1 female that is diagnosed. And autism does not affect more males than females, it's just that males act more outside of the social norms/conventions than females, which means, higher testing rate, which means a higher diagnosis rate (fyi, it's the same thing that happens with child prodigies, more male prodigies are found in comparison to female prodigies because parents take a closer look at their male children than their female children). Believe it or not, adults are getting themselves tested because they want their neurodivergence recognized as part of who they are. Neurodivergence is NOT an illness. And these testings are demostrating that the definition of autism was not wide enough when it was first used.

I don't blame the anti-vaxxers, I blame education. As mentioned here (and pointed out extremely well graphically), humans are full of cognitive biases. We absolutely suck at collecting and analyzing and understanding data unless we systematically force ourselves to do it right. So critical thinking is a skill that must be learned...and yet we don't teach kids how to do that. At least where I went to school, I wasn't able to take any psychology, logic, or critical thinking courses until uni. That means I had 18 years in which, if I hadn't been personally interested in the subjects beforehand, I would never have learned how to think. I mean, sure, we learn the scientific method relatively early (which is great!), but we're convinced it's only something that doctors and lab techs do. Humans innately overestimate our mental abilities, and until we learn how many (many, many, many) different ways our brains lie to us, we trust ourselves more than the facts. (This is the basis for why democracy is generally considered the best form of government, though it's not...but I digress.) So really, I think we need to be teaching children about psychology and logic and critical thinking skills long before they turn 18. As in, starting at least in 6th grade, if not primary school.

OnlyThe Ghosts - Do you have the references on these peer-reviewed studies? To my knowledge, the original research that claimed vaccines cause autism has been debunked, with even the original author/researcher admitting it was a publicity stunt to boost their career and apologizing for the vast amount of misinformation and damage it has brought to society. Some court cases have settled on the defendant's side in injury claims related to vaccines, but not often if at all for autism. In fact, large groupings of autism-related vaccine claims have been thrown out of court in the past, likely due to lack of evidence for a link between the two. 2/3 of vaccine related cases in general also get thrown out of court. Here is my reference for that: "And in 2010, the court declined to award compensation in an omnibus proceeding that grouped more than 5000 autism claims. Such petitions continue to fail. One typical, recent opinion reads: "The factual record simply does not support Petitioners' contention that the MMR vaccine had any connection to R.A.'s ASD [autism spectrum disorder] diagnosis."" Link - www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/04/vaccines-trial-us-court-separates-fact-fiction I'd also like to say that if we're talking about risk here, the threat posed by diseases like measles and polio, which we have vaccines for, is MUCH greater than the threat of the vaccines themselves. Like Hank mentioned in the video, these threats aren't abundantly known now that these diseases have been mostly eradicated. However, anti-vaxxers are the reason measles cases have happened in the U.S. again. There are still people out there in iron lungs from getting polio as children. These diseases that we vaccinate against truly are dangerous.

This can all be found on the CDC website. All facts.👍

[@Lawrence330]

@@roughtakes5491 The whole point of a vaccine is to boost the immune system to target and destroy a specific pathogen. Sure, that pathogen can still enter a vaccinated person's body, but rather than take hold, cause infection, and successfully multiply, it is rapidly targeted and destroyed (ideally). The risk of unvaccinated people is this: every successful infection provides a pathogen with the opportunity to reproduce, and each reproduction is an opportunity to mutate. Therefore every successful infection is an opportunity for the virus to mutate beyond the effectiveness of current vaccines. In this scenario, everyone who has been vaccinated becomes susceptible to this hypothetical new strain, the unvaccinated person becoming patient-zero for another round of outbreaks. This is why there was so much discussion surrounding the delta variant even after vaccines had become available in early 2021, because the scientific and medical communities were worried that a significant mutation would render the vaccines ineffective. Of course, this only fuels the fire because anti-vaxxers can look and say, "see, all those people were vaccinated and still got sick. Vaccines don't work." In reality, it's a result of ignorance of the mechanism by which vaccines function. This is also why there is a new flu vaccine each fall- flu mutates quickly, and new strains are different enough to require a targeted vaccine. With smallpox and polio, Americans, and people worldwide, recognized the issue as significant, even if they didn't understand the science. Vaccination is a team effort, and we can't win if a large chunk of people refuse to be team players.

Though I will put this also (explaining a part of the article anti-vaxxers won't read), the mercury we all know is methyl-mercury, that is the stuff that is toxic and accumulates, the mercury in vaccines is ethyl-mercury, which is easily metabolised and removed from the body. So really mercury in vaccines is a non-issue.

If you are concerned about mercury poisoning, I suggest you avoid fish, because not only does it contain methylmercury, it's contains much more than the amount of ethylmercury in vaccines.

Reality is complex, and there are many factors that you avoid taking into consideration by starting off with the assumption that vaccines must be to blame. Despite many years of these claims, there is still no empirical evidence to support a direct link between vaccines and autism. It could just as easily be caused by the pesticides and preservatives that our beloved corporate overlords have been putting into our food for the past few decades. It could be the widespread use of prescription medications while pregnant. It could be any number of things, and there is not enough data to conclusively prove any one of them. So, there is no logical reason whatsoever to latch onto vaccines in particular.

Corruption of human nature playing out in corporate corruption beyond any imaginable scale is the FACT of the matter here. (Even corporate bosses of Big Pharma occasionally admit to that - like when a former Pfizer CEO compared the way his corporation functions, taking huge fines as "cost of doing business" to the way mafia operates. Both making money in the process of pushing drugs - Pfizer much more successfully.) Unfortunately, science is NOT immune from criminal tampering with DATA.

But I also understand science (especially biology), and scientific consensus is not something that is easy to arrive at. So, when it IS arrived at, that is pretty significant and usually worth believing, at least until disproven. In order for the consensus about the safety of vaccines to be wrong, the data would need to be tampered with in basically every single peer-reviewed study ever done on vaccines from every single source, which I guarantee is not the case. Yes, sometimes, it is true that specific studies are biased and/or funded by questionable sources, but it is not true as if by definition, and it IS possible for a bad industry to simply produce good things for bad reasons (which is usually the case). I probably have a moral issue with any company that manufactures medications under capitalism, thereby withholding it from those who can't pay for it, but I'm also not going to stop talking medications that I need just because I dislike the people who sell it to me. And that is part of the reason why they are so powerful, as it necessarily ensures their success, but ultimately, nothing can be done about it until the majority of people reconsider their loyalty to the system they were born into, and that won't happen without an education founded on critical thinking and open-mindedness.

So this video touched on this, but barely; Do people not realize how much medical practice has changed? Also, how much culture has changed? When a child was "abnormal" or "different" there didn't use to be proper diagnosis, they were also very often locked in a room and isolated from the world, or put in an institute, or insane asylum. Mental disabilities, or problems, were not accepted. So why don't people see the rise in autism cases linked to better mental health care, better diagnoses, and mental health issues being more accepted and treated, instead of being ignored because people didn't know how to handle it? Why can't people just accept the fact that things are documented better, and the rise in vaccines and autism are not related? Why is the fact that major deadly diseases are rare because of these vaccines that have helped prevent them being ignored?

So, I'm up late researching cancer stuff and I find this. Warning(all ye 2 people who see my posts) - it's extremely disturbing, and entirely accurate. Here is a detailed list of vaccines and their animal byproducts(including the fetus stuff you hear so much about but probably generally brush off as BS): measles (attenuvax): chick embryo -- rubella (Blavax): human diploid cells from aborted fetal tissue -- DPT (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis): washed sheep red blood cells -- small pox (Dryvax): vesicle fluid from calf skins -- flu shot (Flyvirin): chick embryonic fluid -- chicken pox (varivax): guinea pig embryo cells, fetal bovine serum, albumin from human blood, diploid cells from aborted fetal tissue -- hepatitis A (Havrix): human diploid cells from aborted fetal tissue -- oral polio (Orimune): monkey kidney cells and calf serum -- measles, mumps, rubella and varicella (Proquad): human albumin, human diploid cells from aborted fetal tissue, bovine serum, chick embryo -- Japanese encephalitis (Je-vax): mouse serum proteins -- Oral rotavirus (recalled): rhesus monkey fetal diploid cells, bovine fetal serum -- Rabies vaccine adsorbed: Rhesus monkey fetal lung cells. Aborted fetuses are frequently used in the production of numerous vaccines (often referred to as human diploid cell). DNA and protein structures from human aborted babies is foreign DNA in your bloodstream. Your body will attack it, often leading to some sort of autoimmune disease. Roe vs. Wade actually opened up this industry, as previously vaccine manufacturers had to go to Sweden for aborted fetuses. This is an extremely lucrative business. There is a DIFFERENCE between immunizations and vaccination. Vaccination is the creation of antibodies. This can trigger allergies, asthma, autoimmune diseases and even cancer. Immunization is natural exposure to form proteins that challenge and build the immune system. Vaccinations do NOT prompt natural immunity. HPV vaccination has been linked to demyelination; systemic lupus erythematosus has been triggered by the hepatitis B vaccine; measles vaccination in developing countries has resulted in higher infant mortality rates; influenza vaccines may be causing vasculitis; hep B vaccine has been associated with increased risk of MS and a wide range of autoimmune diseases; adult rubella and adult hep B vaccines have been statistically associated with chronic arthritis; Guillain-Barré syndrome has been associated with flu and hep B vaccines; Gardasil has also been linked to Guillain-Barré syndrome (Guillain-Barré syndrome, MS, polio...all suspiciously similar looking diseases according to Dr. Tent). Viruses (wild-type or recombinant vaccine-type) can silently prime for and trigger central nervous system autoimmune diseases. Many of these viruses are hard to detect because they are so slow acting. Numerous things can affect the immune system and stimulate these dormant viruses: steroids, ibuprofen, radiation, flu shots, blood transfusions, poisoned food, toxic environments, cosmetics, fear, and stress all can weaken the immune system. CT/CAT scans are way overdone. It's admitted that they kill 30,000 people a year...however is it the CAT scan itself or is it actually turning on these viruses? The following vaccines are required for immigration to US: hep A, hep B, influenza, influenza B (Hib), measles, meningococcal, mumps, penumococcal, pertussis, polio, rotavirus, rubella, tetanus and diphtheria, and varicella. Never get travel vaccinations. Nurses are also getting creamed...flu shots, Gardasil, it's all awful for you. Dr. Tent treats many of his patients that complain of fatigue, muscle pains, headaches, MS, etc. as being caused by viruses. The following foods aggravate viruses, as they are high in Arginine, and should be avoided in large quantities, especially if you're sick: sunflower seeds, brown rice, chocolate, almonds, pecans, peanuts, whole wheat bread, oatmeal, soybeans, corn, millet, onions, brussel sprouts, sesame seeds, split peas, walnuts, wheat germ, caffeine. However, curcumin (from turmeric) inhibits autoimmune diseases. L-Lysine HCL also has documented immuno-supportive properties, esp. regarding viruses. Several top immunologists believe the single most critical disease-fighting element in the human cell is ionized calcium, it even fights herpes Dr. Tent recommends the following supplements: livaplex, livotrit plus, liv-co, livton, L-Lysine, Cal-ma plus, C/Ca/Mag, calcium lactate, bio-FCTS, Ultra Virex, Cyruta Plus, Andrographis, Dismuzyme, Garlic, Sesame Seed Oil, IAG, ADP, Thymex, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Congaplex. IAG: 1 tsp in juice; Thymex: 3 per day; sesame seed oil 3 per day; astragulus 2 per day; Vitanox (curcumin) 1-2 per day. During the remainder of the video, Dr. Tent details specific cases were patients of his were unable to be treated under conventional methods. Dr. Tent, however, treated them as if the virus was the cause of the ailment, and the vast majority made complete or nearly complete recoveries.

If your idea of sanity is injecting deadly toxic chemicals and biological waste into your blood then you are gravely misinformed. If you do that to yourself, or allow some eugenicist psychopath to do that to you, and it doesn't make you immune to a disease, will you be surprised? Will you be so surprised that you literally don't believe it didn't work, and then try to lie to yourself that the only possible reason it didn't work is because you didn't force everyone else to do the same? That is literally the “herd immunity” argument. My argument is simple. Injecting toxic chemicals and biological waste into your blood causes severe illnesses and most certainly does not make you immune to any disease at all. I have nothing more to say to you.

1:08 I've tried explaining this to people and they get lost by this point. The amount of people with autism hasn't increased, we have just gotten better at recognising when someone has autism. It means that there are lots of who do have autism but no one has noticed yet. That's the simplest way I've been able to explain it. I had the same issue with epilepsy. I had my first grand mal seizure in my 20's, but an EEG and MRI scan have revealed that I have likely always had epilepsy, but it was never bad enough that anyone noticed. Since I got diagnosed approx 10 years ago, the terminology used to describe and identify different seizures has changed and improved so that people can be diagnosed more easily. The kinds of symptoms and experiences a person has can vary in severity, and are not exactly the same for everyone. It is the closest analogy I have for something like autism.

I would really like to agree with you but then we would both be wrong. Now bare with me and put your thinking cap on...you ready? ..They have no safety studies on their product.. The same scrutiny used when passing a new drug on the market isn't used for vaccines They have yet to do a study on vaccinated against unvaccinated. (look closely at their studies and who were involved because they trick you into believing something that isnt there) They have their own court system to deal with all the injuries caused by vaccines. When it is determined that a vaccine was indeed the reason for a specific injury ...guess what happens next....Joe hardworking citizen pays for compensation thru his taxes...Why doesnt the maker of the tainted vaccine pay for the vaccine injured you ask? Because they have zero liabiliry...0...nil...nothing...none...zilch...This might be alarming to you but the factual existing reality suggests that your ailments along with half of America are caused by the vaccines you defend. The ingredients alone that comes with each vaccine should raise a flag of concern to anyone who has deductive reasoning skills. You cant seriously believe 1 in 11,000 fifteen years ago compared to 1 in 40 today is just a matter of misdiagnosis? How about just learning disabilities from then to now? whats that looking like? Or do you think people back then couldnt figure out when someone had a learning disability? C'mon man! Snap out of it....The deciders have already decided for us its up to you to figure it out
