Surely it would make more sense to have ALL children, male and female, vaccinated before they first become sexually active. As seen with MMR and other vaccines, if parents refuse to allow their child to take part in the programme it can leave large parts of the population uncovered, raising the risks for later generations again.
Another means of making profit for BIG PHARMA.CaNt make it through MMR because the people have decided on that one.How can injecting Mercury,Monkey kidneys ,Anti freeze,Chicken Ebryos,Aborted Human phetal,which is all in these vaccines ,,BE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE HEALTH OF OUR CHILDREN.I have yet to see Tony Blair give any of these vaccines to his children ,so make up your own mind ,something that the citizens are finding it harder to do in this country all the time.JUST SAY WE HAVE MADE AN INFORMED CHOICE NO THANKS ITS A FRRE COUNTRY AFTER ALL WE HOPE.
The Catholic Church is NOT being silly. On the contrary, the Catholic Church, together with any other church that cares for the moral well-being of the young of both genders, would rather promote the non-pursuance of sex-related activities outside marriage and, certainly, amongst the very young. There are too many instances of Officialdom opting to deal with these sorts of problems by treating the symptoms rather than the cause.
Why don’t parents start accepting what can be a difficult responsibility by teaching, showing by example, and protecting vulnerable ‘wee’ children from the current malaise of self-indulgence which includes access to and examples of sexual promiscuity in the media and other sources?
Where the research and proof that any of these vaccines do protect .The evidence is so far is that the vaccines dont work.WHERES THE RESEARCH AND PROOF WHICH YOU SHOULD DEMAND BEFORE EVEN THINKING OF VACCINE WHEN THAT NEEDLE ENTERS THE SKIN ITS TO LATE NON RETURNABLE YOUR CHILD IS NOT THE SAME AS IT WAS BEFORE VACCINE
ANGus, fIRST FIx your kEYBoaRd, secondly it's none of your business what Mr and Mrs Blair decide to do about their children's health, thirdly what's your point?
Phil - what are you doing, labouring on the Sabbath day? Of course there is an alternative - wee boys could wash their bits properly, like I was tellt.
Otherwise, are you suggesting that young people won't do "pursuance of sex related activities" if their parents fail to provide protection against the human papillomavirus in this way? And do you really think young people get the idea to try the "pursuance of sex related activities" off the telly?
This vaccine sounds great. It will save lots of girls' lives. Girls are something the Catholic Church doesn't care that much about because it's run by nuns and odd men who are all screwed up about sex.
Surely before a mass vaccination programme is introduced long term data must be collected on the side effects of this vaccination. Most young girls are just entering the start of puberty at age 10. What are the possible long term complications of this vaccination. It is rather niave to think that there are no side effects. By administering this to all young girls are they in effect just being used as guinea pigs? Controversy still reigns over the MMR vaccination and possible links to autism. By introducing this vaccination are we in fact setting another timebomb for public health?
Concerned of Edinburgh is flying a kite. Cervical cancer is killing women and we can prevent it. The vaccine will be subject to the same safeguards as any other. The hang-up here is to do with sex and there's no two ways about it (as there is with sex, concerned). You give the game away by citing MMR - the scandal there was the anti-science hysteria, now proven to be hogwash put about by the media and a gang of fruitloops.
Save our girls from the Catholic Church and anti-science fruitloops!
This is not an issue for the Catholic Church or any other church for that matter. This is a medical matter. There is a vaccine available which has been shown to have the potential to save lives. Cervical cancer can happen to any woman who has had sex, including women who have remained totally faithful to one partner all their lives. Surely if there is a safe way of reducing the death rate from this awful disease then we should be encouraging the vaccination programme to go ahead.
As someone growing up the 'Bible Belt' of the States, I believe teaching your children to abstain from sex is the parents responsibility. As to the vaccination, would you have your child not get the polio vaccine? If this will save your child from suffering with cancer, it's STUPID to refrain from participating in the program.
The Catholic church is seemingly increasingly isolated from reality on any matter that involves sexual health. That they would rather that an HIV positive man passed the virus to his wife, rather than use a condom, is an example of just how muddle their thinking is.
And using the MMR controversy as a rhetorical point is a very bad move. One study showed a connection between MMR and autism. It's methods were roundly criticised, and many subsequent studies were carried out, and not one showed any connection. Granted, the reason for the rising rate of autism is still unanswered, but we can be sure it isn't because of MMR.
Phil it has everything to do with me what Tony Blair does with his children. Someone that tells us all to vaccinate and doesn’t vaccinate his own children” do as I say not as I do” So why is he doing that money and corruption at the heart of it. My keyboard works fine its just I have to jump up and down looking after my MMR damaged vaccinated son who is 9 years old with the mental age of 2.But hey! I know nothing, so carry on into the hell that vaccines have brought to us if you want although I wouldn’t wish it on ANY child. And as for studies visit www.JABS.co.uk there are many deaths of children from vaccines from parents ,visit the forum if you dare. This is as I say more money for big pharma and misery on the innocent children. Involving the church is just a point to take you of the real issue another, deadly, un proven nasty vaccine,AND MORE MONEY FOR ALL CONCERNED AND MISERY TO THE PUBLIC. MMR R.I.P
There IS controversy about vaccines and/or the preservatives in them damaging children's health and being responsible for the huge increase in problems such as autism.
Surely it would be more prudent for the government to spend money on funding their own independent research into whether vaccines, and the mercury they contain, are harmful to children instead of just buying the vaccines and believing what they are told?
Unfortunately Angus learned the hard way what many people do not realise - we live in a consumer society and the sole purpose of pharmaceutical companies is to make a profit. The prime function of government is to balance this by protecting its people.
People have a right to make an educated, informed choice about whether they need or want this vaccine, and that cannot be done at aged 9.
It is not clear whether the 30% of 15 year old teenagers having sex are actually risking HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, pregnancy etc or using condoms, but at least they have a choice.
I find it incredible that any parent of an autistic (I presume) child would say "MMR damaged vaccinated son who is 9 years old with the mental age of 2."
For any vaccination, or indeed any medicine, deaths have to be so rare as to be almost statistically impossible. I'd be far more concerned about the outbreaks of measles - which should be a disease of the past - which can solely be blamed on parents who aren't inoculating their children.
Enough pseudo-science and tabloid hysteria please.
The vaccine was developed by Prof Iain Frazer here in Brisbane. It just so happens that he is a Scot who emigrated many years ago. The worlwide trials were completed over a year ago, Get your predjudices under control and read this
http://www.uq.edu.au/news/index.html?article=8808
As for those who don't vaccinate innocent children, may the pox stay with you......
Ian Mac Kenzie .Sorry if that shocked you my son having the mental age of 2 when he is now 9 years old but I’m afraid that’s what his end of school report said. Sadly he doesn’t even have that as we have a non vaccinated 2 year old and he is years ahead of our vaccinated son. Visit www.JABS.co.uk or maybe someone like you shouldn’t if that shocked you. Sorry I rise above the pox allegation and presume you haven’t a Scooby what you’re talking about.Ron says “The worldwide trials were completed over a year ago” as below of course! of course! another bias FREE no conflicting of interest! (being sarcastic) free epidemiological study looking at figures and not people. And by the way big man I couldn’t care if it was god himself that made the vaccine .The makers have misery and death on there hands .As for the founder of the vaccine(shame on him) being an ex scot that’s why he’s over in OZ Scotland wouldn’t want him ,keep him as far away from my kids as possible Australia is that place with all the ex-cons. And Merck A.K.A.(Smith Kliene Beecham) who own 65% of the pharma industry world wide say
“The results of the Phase III trials were announced in October 2005 by international pharmaceutical company Merck & Co. which is developing the product”. WHERE ARE THE RESULTS I WOULD LOVE TO READ THEM INFACT WHERE ARE THE MMR STUDY RESULTS ?THERE HAVENT BEEN ANY ALL PARTS OF THE VACCINE SWERE TESTED INDIVIDUALLY BUT NEVER EVER AS ONE????
Now that is a surprise! How come I never fell of my seat ,YAWN!
Oh of course, I'm sure every 9 year old girl has been waiting for just such a vaccine so that she could become sexually active, and the Catholic Church is brilliant to worry that this vaccine will lead to promiscuity! Surely the 70% of girls aged 15 who are not sexually active must be refraining from sex because they fear contracing cervical cancer and they don't have the "green light" that the HPV vaccine would give them! They haven't got a care or a thought about pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, herpes, chlamydia, gonorreah, syphilis or appropriate behavior!
Given that most people, as the article states, are ignorant of the existence of the HPV virus, how can anyone postulate that removing the fear of this largely unknown virus will lead to promiscuity? If it were true, as the Catholic spokesperson says, that " this vaccine is seen as giving a green light to promiscuity", why has the sexual activity which spreads this deadly virus been increasing without the "green light"?
The Catholic position here is an irresponsible one, and it's certainly not unusual or coincidental that it has lethal outcomes for women..."Nev", the first person to comment on this article, is right--I would just add that morality, the world and humanity would be better served if the Catholic Church put as much energy into staying away from stupid positions which endanger the lives of women as they put into protecting those who should have stayed away from wee little boys...
Sur BJ but how can you trust a government and pharma industry who are un trustable and then let your children make a decision based on lies? We had trust in them at one time as well and our doctors too, if we hadn’t our son wouldn’t be in the mess he is in now .As you say let them make the decision themselves a lot ,lot older no 2nd chances with your health. You wouldn’t want the guilt of what we have by saying ok vaccinate then: haunts us.
Post 20. It`s amazing how many people I know of who have Autistic children. The majority of these parents, and I`m talking about intelligent professional people, seem to nail their children`s problems to the time of their MMR vaccinations. Still the government won`t have it. It costs £500 to have single injections here so someone is making money.
I would be more impressed if Tony Blair came clean regarding his own son`s vaccinations. the best of luck to you & your family,
Angus - you are having your rant about autism and "big pharma" and are clearly convinced that MMR led to your son getting the condition. It's got nothing to do with human papillomavirus though. This vaccine seems to have been adequately tested and will save girls' lives. Your story is sad in a number of ways but please don't confuse the issue. Teach your sons to wash their bits properly, though.
11 Lorna - are you aware that the only incidence of polio in the US is from the polio vaccine? Now who's stupid?
Don't just accept vaccines without asking questions - do they work? are they really necessary? who benefits?
Aren't our children sexulised enough? Who say's cervical cancer is killing women? Men do that and we can't get a vaccine to prevent that - can we?
Does anyone ever question the total impact all these vaccines, often required, have on the human body?
Is this vaccine available in america?Personally i'd like to protect my self and my daughter and go together to get one. The decision for OUR family would be " use what's available to preserve your life". I know many are taking a stance against vaccines at all. Personally, I believe that doing so endangers lives of innocents and should be fined at the least.Its this. An individuals right should ends where someone else's begins. if you don't get a shot/ jab of say a contagious virus ( but I do but still can be a carrier) and my mothers shot has warn out. I visit her, she gets a disease....albe it not the one in this dicussion board. Also. MY beliefs MAY be that of my child...but then they grow up. Can you say that your grown up childs belief WILL agree with the stance you take AGAINST getting a jab?
I can't understand the Christian, or any other, fundamentalists who would refuse to let their children receive this vaccine. You can be sure that these same religious adults would immediately seek the full extent of medical help for any slight problem they themselves might incur, and would no doubt line up for cancer vaccines for other types of cancer should these become available.
My hat is off to the British medical establishment for their principled and courageous move. It's no different from the mandated meningitis innoculations that took place a few years ago, and that too was the right thing to do. And we're still lagging behind Britain here as regard that vaccine as well.
In the USA, each state would decide whether or not such a vaccine would be given to schoolchildren. You can bet that the Holy Roller and/or Catholic states like Arkansas, Alabama, and Iowa would refuse to do it, thereby endangering the future health of their girl children under the rubric of their sexual mores. Which, incidentally, the very sexually active evangelists and priests violate at every turn.
Too bad that researchers can't find a vaccine for boys, since they are the ones who spread the papilloma virus, but as with a number of other sexually transmitted diseases, it's asymptomatic in males.
Nicki, it is now avail in the US
Jacqui. Thanks. It's nice to be informed.
Sickened fae Aberdeen - getting a jag that will protect against a virus that causes 70% of cervical cancers is not "sexualising" anyone.
That's a really stupid word anyway. I suppose it means "make people want to have sex". Most young people want to have sex and that arises not from the telly. and certainly not from getting vaccination - it's part of being human. Vaccines like this are there to help us be better humans.
Are you the kind of Christian who thinks it's God's plan for women to contract terrible diseases because they broke the Church's arbitrary rules from ancients times about being submissive to the patriarchy and ruling class?
Cos if you are, you're a numpty. And I don't use words like that lightly.
Niki in Oregon: the vaccine is indeed available in the USA. But there is no program to vaccinate all schoolgirls for it, because our federal government does not operate that way. Medical and public health issues are the responsibility of the individual states, as per the Constitution, except in rare cases like the Terri Schiavo fiasco, where the federal government was asked to step in.
Jean: as with every other aspect of human life, there is a slight risk associated with any vaccine. One child in a million might become ill and even die from measles vaccine, for example, but is that a reason to withhold it from all the other 999,999 children? Do you refuse to drive because 40,000 people are killed each year on highways in the USA?
Unfortunately it's impossible to prove how many children the vaccine will save. You aren't aware of the moment when you don't contract a disease in the course of your daily life, and it's impossible to monitor.
Now about autism: autism existed long before any vaccines were invented. MMR vaccines have saved tens of thousands, perhaps even millions, of children from either early death or disabling effects of serious diseases both in utero and after birth. You have to balance the potential for good against the probability that a few individuals will experience some effects from the vaccine itself. But these instances are usually so rare as to be inconsequential; it's many, many times more dangerous to take your children out in your automobile than it is to get them vaccinated against any disease.
Jean from the USA (25) - yes - we do question the total effect of all these vaccines on the human body. They help the vast majority of us to live long and healthy and fulfilling lives for twice as long as in previous ages.
I hope that helps.
Look dont believe me I discovered the diseases were safer than the vaccines the hard way, and the vaccines didn't do anything anyway http://www.whale.to/vaccines/note.html
Someday there may even be a vaccine that will prevent addiction to certain chemicals like alcohol or opium-based drugs. Will you also withhold that from your child?
There is nothing more stupid or pathetic than these self-righteous people who, while enjoying all the benefits of modern science themselves, refuse to let their children also partake of these benefits.
It's clearly about the power they have over little, helpless lives, and nothing else.
Hi Maestra#23 I agree, education is a must with anything like this, as well as lots of Proven studies, before they pass it off...I wasn't too sure about the chicken pox vaccine,years ago, but had an in depth discussion about it with the MD.....as far as the MMR/Autism connection, I'm still reading...I was recomended to vaccinate using separated Measles first then when the immune response has recovered the next one....it means more 'shots' but I was told it is less overwhelming to the child's system
Angus, I am truly sorry for your problems. But you can't, on the basis of one incident, determine that no other children shall receive a vaccine that will be harmless to them.
Yes, there are risks associated with vaccines of any kind-- but these risks are in such small percentages as to make them irrelevant to most individuals. I reacted very badly to the smallpox vaccine as a child and was sick for days; but millions of other children did not have the same adverse reaction.
It's much more dangerous to walk down the street.
There was a petting zoo here in Florida a year or so ago, and twelve children came down with E-coli infection, but fortunately none died. Those twelve will have serious health problems for years to come from their encounter with a particularly virulent bacillus. I'm sure their parents, knowing what they know now, would be the first in line for an E-coli vaccine, and would urge other parents to make sure their children get it.
Not just "ineffective": it makes children susceptible to pneumoccocal strains that haven't been included. Benefits hystericla laughing this is the sickest the population of America CandaEurope UK,Have ever beenCoincidence all the vaccinated countries.OOPS!
http://www.jabs.org.uk/pages/nextStorm.doc
My three kids went through the usual DPT and MMR vaccine schedules. They were cranky and ran slight temperatures for a day after the injection, then it passed and they were fine. I would be very surprised if this were not the norm with childhood innoculations.
Just visit an old graveyard any time and look at the dates on the tombstones, especially the large numbers of children interred there. Then you'll have no doubts as to the beneficial effects of vaccinations against devastating diseases.
Angus - what has all this to do with human papillomavirus?
Angus ; " The sickest that people have ever been? " Surely you jest.
How about the Plague Years, when one third of the population of Europe died from bubonic plague? Is that sick enough for you? How about puerperal fever, which affected one woman in ten when she gave birth, and usually killed her? How about the Spanish Flu of 1918? That wasn't all that long ago.
In the 1940s and 50s, polio was epidemic in the USA. A generation earlier it was diphtheria and whooping cough in the 1920s and 30s.
As I say: visit a graveyard. Read something besides ignorant scare postings on the internet. People rarely lived past 50 if they were working class in your country, and young children died by the hundreds each year of diphtheria, typhoid, whooping cough (pertussus), pneumonia, or scarlet fever (rubella). Read the works of A.J. Cronin, who was alive at the turn of the 20th century, if you don't believe me. He was a countryman of yours.
No one wants to revive those grim statistics.
Hi Angus #33 Interesting site, will take some time to peruse...I have friends on both sides of the discussion spectrum here.
I have empathy toward your situation with your son, a friend's nephew has autism. I'm sure you have all the updated lit. on it, you seem on top of things with that...but I can phone my friend for any update/contacts here if you wish.
as far as the HPV vaccine, I do question any new vaccine, studies etc; It is better to be pro-active....but there are so many other nasty things to catch from casual dalliances, not to mention the girl's self-esteem issue, if you want to get philosophical.
.... more effort should be put on teaching responsibility; humans have obviously a "natural inclination" but they also have a brain that can tell them to say "no". (and, no, I am not one of those Puritans, but I do think abstinence/monogamy have their merits)
NEV FOR YOU READ IT
In what is perhaps the most brilliant public relations and marketingstrategy ever employed by a pharmaceutical company promoting the universaluse of a vaccine most Americans and Britain’s do not need to prevent cervical cancer,Merck & Co. is in the process of pulling off one of the biggest moneymaking schemes in the history of medicine. The Big Pharma giant thatbrought us death by Vioxx has convinced the FDA, CDC, public schoolofficials and gynecology professors as well as the entire European Unionthat every man and woman in the world must purchase and be injected withthe HPV vaccine in order to survive. Never mind that the majority of all sexually active humans areasymptomatically infected with HPV and go on to successfully produceantibodies and clear it from their bodies without any residual negativehealth effects whatsoever. Never mind that only 12,000 American women getHPV related cervical cancer every year because routine pap smears havereduced cervical cancer cases by more than 70 percent in the past halfcentury by detecting persistent HPV infection in the small percentage ofwomen who do not naturally clear HPV infection. Never mind that Merck onlytested its HPV vaccine on a few hundred nine year old girls but is nowlobbying for all little girls AND boys to be required to get three shots ofHPV vaccine - at a cost of £98.00 per shot - in order to attend school. If Merck can pull the wool over enough eyes of the dumb sheep we havebecome, then Merck will rake in more than £3 billion a year worldwide inGardasil sales alone. That would pay off a good number of the more than11,000 Vioxx victims and their families now suing Merck in court. HPV Vaccine: it's unnecessary, it's expensive, it's never been tested forthe ability to cause immune system disorders over time,
Hi Martha #36 as to the e-coli vaccine, don't you think common sense for proper hand-washing and the use of an alcohol base sani-lotion would have put to better use here??
Continued god you must hate me!
Every year the Vaccine Machine grows stronger while educated citizens indeveloped nations, who should know better, are led like ignorant sheep toslaughter, barely uttering a wimper. When the experimental AIDS vaccine istrotted out in the not to distant future and rushed to market with callsfor world mandates, we will have been softened up to accept our fatewithout too much fuss by the masterful marketing of hepatitis B vaccinationat birth and HPV vaccination in pre-adolescence. And when we or our husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, sons or daughtersget sick after being injected with just a little bit of the HIV virus, wewill have been carefully taught to believe it is all just a coincidence:the vaccine had nothing to do with it. No one, including Merck and otherHIV vaccine marketeers, or the government will take responsibility for whathappens. We allowed ourselves to be victimized a long time ago when we letour politicians weaken the FDA's regulatory authority and take away ourright to seek justice in the civil court system for vaccine injuries. The expedited injection of HPV vaccine into everyone in the world is just atrial run for how easy it will be to expedite the injection of HIV vaccineinto everyone in the world. And when we all test positive for HIV afterthat future forced vaccination experiment on humanity, we will have onlyourselves to blame for failing to stand up now and say no to forced use ofHPV vaccine.
Perhaps the Catholic Church should take a lesson from the late great Pierre Elliot Trudeau and "stay out of the bedrooms of the nation." How a medical procedure could possibly lead to promiscuity, I truly cannot fathom - but then the twisted machinations of a group of old sexually-frustrated men who have no knowledge, experience, or love of the female half of the population has always confounded me.As someone who lived through HPV, and was even told by one (male) doctor that it was my own fault because I was obviously a slut (I got it from my now ex-husband, thank you very much), and the treatments required to make sure it didn't get to the cancerous stage, I can only say that I'm torn regarding this vaccination. I would never give a child the MMR vaccination - too many stories like Angus' - and the alterative is so simple - go back to individual jabs, so there won't the holes in the population as some fear-mongers are screeching about. Researching something for a year or two and calling it safe is asinine - doesn't anyone remember thalidomide? It takes years, maybe even generations, to really understand the effects of many drugs - HRT is now known to cause as many problems as it helps prevent, and yet woman are still being told to take this therapy. I think I would need to see a whole lot more research and follow-up before I was comfortable with this vaccination, even having suffered through the disease it is meant to prevent.
Melanie: since I know the dangers of petting zoos, my instinct would have been to avoid them altogether. But yes: proper sanitation would have prevented some of the cases, perhaps. Still, it's impossible to monitor a small child every second, and even when you're standing right beside them they can put dirty little hands into their mouths.
Then too, some of the bacillus is very likely airborne as the animals urinate and defecate because the young animals themselves are under stress, which damps down their own immune systems and perhaps permits the bacillus to mutate into a more virulent form.
Not being an epidemiologist I can't really say exactly how the disease is contracted; but epidemiologists here concluded that it was the petting zoo that caused the tragedy. As I reported, the children lived, but their lives will not be the same.
Catharine: your remarks are sensible and based on information you have obviously taken some pains to acquire.
In the USA, the HPV vaccine is available and is advertised on television. People should take the time to read up on these things, but very few actually do.
CORRECTION: I erroneously stated that scarlet fever was rubella. It is not. Rubella is a virus and scarlet fever is caused by a bacillus. Sorry; don't know why that happened. Must be the effects of too much sunlight and high heat and humidity.
Angus #42,44. Most of what you say may well be correct but beware... that doesn't make the Catholic Church right, any more than it would the Taleban. I'd say 'strange bedfellows' but someone migh take umbrage.
Knowing what I know today, I'd not only get the HPV vaccine for myself, but also for my daughters. The fact is, very few men are monogamous, whatever their claims. Most of them play around if and when they can, and that is how the virus spreads. Since most boys have had sexual experiences by the time they're 17 years old, you aren't doing your daughters any favors by withholding the vaccine from them. Even the most seemingly strait-laced young men are anything but.
I Angus/44, I hate to think about another conspiracy and the greed of the power-brokers...it's just too much; we just had this discussion about big-brother and camaras everywhere...you've made some frightening allegations, but I do see the validity with...it's just about money....I prefer homeopathy myself...but am ever so grateful for antibiotics; yes, I did vacc. my kids with the traditional ones for school, but I'm not so sure I'll be queuing (sp) up for any of the latest must-haves!
DannyL: All religious extremists have a great deal in common. They all seem hell-bent on subjugating women while excusing male promiscuity along the "boys will be boys" line of defense.
Angus - I bet you didn't write that yourself, did you. You know what I think?
I think you went onto google and put in "crushing arguments to show how horrible big pharma is about HPV and cervical cancer" and you found some text on something like www. theevilplottomakepeoplesurvivelonger .com and cut and pasted it.
So I don't hate you. I think you've got a fixed idea in your head like the 9/11 conspiracy theorists and the Bilderberg fruitloops. According to what you've posted we're all sheep and we're all going to get AIDS.
You and others may find this of interest -http://www.urban75.org/info/conspiraloons.html
ACtually the HPV vaccine was developed in Area 51 with the express purpose of subjugating mankind.
Run! RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Angus - what I won't easily forgive you for is making me agree with all these people from the USA!
whoa there, Nev...not all of us are so terrible!! ;)
Never put me in with the conspiracy theorists its happened no dreams just bad ones and I live with them day to day,No probs health debate nothing to beat it Finished bye
Hi Martha#51...sad, it does seem that way doesn't it!
55. Melanie: I dunno, we're pretty terrible. Didn't we develop the vaccine in the first place? Q.E.D.
http://www.merck.com/newsroom/press_releases/product/2006...
The above is a link to product info on Gardasil, HPV vaccine developed by Merck USA.
Jean, as we have a lot of cases her in sweden of these diseases carried into the country by immigrants and travellers and others it surely would be a Crime to not to give The Children access to vaccination in time. Have you ever seen anybody that have had polio in infancy? I have! Not nice at all. Mumps: deafness, encephalitis, meningitis, male sterility if caught in 13 Yrs or older. Rubella(German measles): encephalitis; in pregnancy, birth defects, stillbirth or miscarriage(happened to my mother in the fifties). Measles: encephalitis(one in 1-2000 cases), subacute sclerosing panencephalitis(rarely). Poliomyelitis: permanent weakness i one or more muscles(common), paralysis(about one i a hundred cases), weakness or paralysis of chest muscles(would need aid to breathe normally), Polio can't be cured and there are no drugs that help after onset. Tuberculosis: resistant strains(to antibiotica) ar extant(we get them from russia), loads of problems. Mercury as a preservative in some (dead) vaccines may soon be phased out. Live vaccines are often more(but not always) effective. Anybody declining to protect their children against ANY of these diseases must be "just plain nuts" as very few complications seems to be common. I do have a oversensitivity reaction to the tuberculine test but thats not a great problem as it just makes me sick a couple of hours, thats all. Protect your children or you may help too spread these diseases to others. If the percentage of protected children gets to low, let's say 85% or less; that's what's going to happen... (Source of information: The Merck Manual of Medical Information, Home edition 1997.), and some Personal experiences of myself, friends and relatives, too. I can't really see that the situation should be much different in Gb or The US.
Angus, please show us Your sources, and/or evidence for your theories, or just stop trying to hammer anybody that dont agree with you into submission.Martha and the rest of us who knows anything at all about this would shurely draw a great sigh of relief and be able to do something more productive with our lives.Mail: pathcarlsson@msn.com
Having spent 8 years in Canada, 1975 -1983, I am flabbergasted at anyone calling Pierre Elliot Treudeau as "GREAT" as Catherine from Winnipeg has posted. His claim to Quebecois fame was when he responded "mange le merd" to a journalist who asked a reasonable question. Truly a great man!! Nonsense! His wife, Margaret, would tell you otherwise - just ask the Rolling Stones about her!
I'm no fan of Big Pharma, but that the vaccine is some kind of conspiracy is a bit of a stretch.
My major gripe with Big Pharma is their licensing agreements with other countries, for instance Canada, so that drugs there are half or less than they are here. And, Big Pharma gives away medicines to countries in Africa, and then pats itself on the back for its charity.
So in effect, Americans are subsidizing who knows how many other countries who can get the same medicines at a much reduced price than we pay here, even adjusting for income per capital and the monetary exchange rate. This is a long-established system of ensuring Big Pharma that it will have plenty of dollars to conduct its R&D, while it can simultaneously point to large sales abroad alongside its charitable works.
I think Americans should not have to pay more for medicines than Canadians, Britons, or anyone else in the world. We get just as sick as anyone else, and most people who live here are far from being millionnaires.
Meanwhile, go get the HPV vaccine if you're a female aged 11 to 30. You will need it.
I have no children--thank God--but I do know that from people I work with that if their children are not fully immunized before they start kindergarten in public schools they are NOT allowed to attend. So it doesn't matter whether or not you object to the vaccine or not, unless you want to homeschool your kid here, they have to get the shots, no exceptions not even for religious reasons. There was a case at the beginning of the year closer to St. Louis where the measles were running rampant and three or four teenagers who had not been vaccinated when they were little for religious reasons were turned away when they came to school because they MIGHT catch the disease and spread it around. They couldn't go back to school for two weeks. I remember getting all those damnable shots and the sugar cubes--tried to get that one twice--when I was a kid at school and it was free or fairly cheap at the time. Handed out like candy and you found out precisely how MACHO the boys in the class were when they blubbered like babies cause they had to get poked.
The point is the vaccine is to help females--boys don't get cervical cancer cause they don't HAVE a cervix--so giving the vaccine to a boy would be rather stupid unless he plans on turning into a female later on. But strangely enough when it comes to women's health issues all of a sudden the church is up in arms. Why doesn't the church pitch a fit about all the ads for Viagara or preventative treatments for testicular or prostate cancer? Why, because it's a man's job to go around overpopulating the planet but a woman's job is to keep her mouth shut and take it.
This is sooooooooo off topic, but, yes John, I still call PET a great man - I'd stack a dozen Trudeaus against your economy-wrecking Maggie, that weakling Majors, or the Dubbya's Boy-Toy Blair - hey, anyone Richard Nixon hated can't be all that bad! As for our Maggie, she'd be the first person to call Pierre "great" - she has done so many times in public and private.
I wish that the vaccine would bew made avbailable to those of us in the US> However, the Catholic church, along with a lot of the fundamentalist churches (especially in the south) will do anything they can to prevent it. Just as they diod long ago when they tried to keep us from birth control pills. We are fightiing a battle as it is for the "morning after" pill and stem cell research so the fact that the "bible beaters", etc. are against a vaccine that could save women's lives is no surprise. These churches still promote large families, and to heck with what it costs to raise a child.
wake up guys, angus is right.vaccinations are bad news, harming the immune system and actually introduce toxins that are cancer causing agents into the body.the polio vaccine actually caused polio not prevented it.got to keep our kids healthy through diet and nutrition then they wont get sick.
where in the world did "worried mother" get the information about the polio vaccine causing polio? I grew up in the fifties and remember school mates getting polio - BEFORE the vaccine was discovered by Dr. Salk. During those days, we weren't allowed to use swimming pools, etc. When the vaccine came along, we kids were finally given a more "normal" life. Thank God for the polio vaccine. This will someday be said for the cerivical cancer vaccine. PS Mom---I watched two friends die from cervical cancer--they suffered greatly. Too bad this was not around long ago. And, your kids will have sex if they want .no matter what you tell them
There are always two sides to any issue. If you are a parent, take the time to research the origin and history and effectiveness of vaccinations BEFORE you decide either way whether or not you will vaccinate. There is a ton of information out there so there is no excuse for being uninformed. Don't just accept the party line as complete truth. The children belong to YOU and YOU are the one that, in the end, will have to deal with your decision.

The Age of Autism: The Amish anomaly
Where are the autistic Amish? Here in Lancaster County, heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country, there should be well over 100 with some form of the disorder.
I have come here to find them, but so far my mission has failed, and the very few I have identified raise some very interesting questions about some widely held views on autism.
The mainstream scientific consensus says autism is a complex genetic disorder, one that has been around for millennia at roughly the same prevalence. That prevalence is now considered to be 1 in every 166 children born in the United States.
Applying that model to Lancaster County, there ought to be 130 Amish men, women and children here with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Well over 100, in rough terms.
Typically, half would harbor milder variants such as Asperger's Disorder or the catch-all Pervasive Development Disorder, Not Otherwise Specified -- PDD-NOS for short.
So let's drop those from our calculation, even though "mild" is a relative term when it comes to autism.
That means upwards of 50 Amish people of all ages should be living in Lancaster County with full-syndrome autism, the "classic autism" first described in 1943 by child psychiatrist Leo Kanner at Johns Hopkins University. The full-syndrome disorder is hard to miss, characterized by "markedly abnormal or impaired development in social interaction and communication and a markedly restricted repertoire of activities and interests," according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
Why bother looking for them among the Amish? Because they could hold clues to the cause of autism.
The first half-dozen articles in this ongoing series on the roots and rise of autism examined the initial studies and early accounts of the disorder, first identified by Kanner among 11 U.S. children born st
LEFT HOOK 2
Surprising, but no one seems to have looked.
Of course, the Amish world is insular by nature; finding a small subset of Amish is a challenge by definition. Many Amish, particularly Old Order, ride horse-and-buggies, eschew electricity, do not attend public school, will not pose for pictures and do not chat casually with the "English," as they warily call the non-Amish.
Still, some Amish today interact with the outside world in many ways. Some drive, use phones, see doctors and send out Christmas cards with family photos. They all still refer to themselves as "Plain," but the definition of that word varies quite a bit.
So far, from sources inside and outside the Amish community, I have identified three Amish residents of Lancaster County who apparently have full-syndrome autism, all of them children.
A local woman told me there is one classroom with about 30 "special-needs" Amish children. In that classroom, there is one autistic Amish child.
Another autistic Amish child does not go to school.
The third is that woman's pre-school-age daughter.
If there were more, she said, she would know it.
What I learned about those children is the subject of the next column.
PART 2: The Age of Autism: Julia
UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL
Leola, PA, Apr. 19 (UPI) -- Part 2 of 2.
Three-year old Julia is napping when I arrive at the spare, neat, cheerful house on Musser School Road near the town of Leola in Lancaster County.
She is the reason I have driven through the budding countryside on this perfect spring day, but I really do not need to meet her.
In the last column, I wrote about trying to find autistic Amish people here in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country, and noted there should be dozens of them -- if autism occurs at the same prevalence as the rest of the United States.
So far, there is evidence of only three, all of them childre
I totally support the measure of vacinnating women, even if they're as young as 9 or 10, if this is to save them or reduce their risk of cervica cancer. Since this desease is causing a great deal of suffering to women and their partners, it's the best thing to do.
The catholic church is full of abusive and promiscuous men and women themselves, who have driven it to the verge of bankruptcy deriving from all lawsuist for the abuses such men and women of the church have committed over the past 20 years. So, they're just a bunch of egotitiscal p***ks.
CROSS CUT
Unfortunately our autistic daughter -- who's doing very well, she's been diagnosed with very, very severe autism -- is adopted from China, and so she would have had all her vaccines in China before we got her, and then she had most of her vaccines given to her in the United States before we got her.
"So we're probably not the pure case you're looking for."
Maybe not, but it was stunning that Julia Inion, the first autistic Amish person I could find, turned out to be adopted -- from another country, no less. It also was surprising that Stacey-jean launched unbidden into vaccines, because the Amish have a religious exemption from vaccination and presumably would not have given it much thought.
She said a minority of Amish families do, in fact, vaccinate their children these days, partly at the urging of public health officials.
"Almost every Amish family I know has had somebody from the health department knock on our door and try to convince us to get vaccines for our children," she said. "The younger Amish more and more are getting vaccines. It's a minority of children who vaccinate, but that is changing now."
Did she know of any other autistic Amish? Two more children, she said.
"One of them, we're very certain it was a vaccine reaction, even though the government would not agree with that."
Federal health officials have said there is no association between vaccinations and autism or learning disabilities.
"The other one I'm not sure if this child was vaccinated or not," she added.
During my visit to their home, I asked Stacey-jean to explain why she attributed the first case to vaccines.
"There's one family that we know, their daughter had a vaccine reaction and is now autistic. She was walking and functioning and a happy bright child, and 24 hours after she had her vaccine, her legs went limp and she had a typical high-pitched screa
KNOCKOUT
The officials said they simply were erring on the side of caution, and that all evidence favors rejection of any link between Autism Spectrum Disorders and thimerosal, or vaccines themselves.
Julia's vaccinations in China -- all given in one day at about age 15 months -- may well have contained thimerosal; the United States had stopped using it by the time she was born, but other countries with millions to vaccinate had not.
Stacey-jean said photographs of Julia taken in China before she was vaccinated showed a smiling alert child looking squarely at the camera. Her original adoptive family in the United States, overwhelmed trying to cope with an autistic child, gave Julia up for re-adoption. The Inions took her in knowing her diagnosis of severe autism.
I tried hard -- and am still trying -- to find people who know about other autistic Amish. Of the local health and social service agency personnel in Lancaster, some said they dealt with Amish people with disabilities, such as mental retardation, but none recalled seeing an autistic Amish.
Still, I could be trapped in a feedback loop: The Amish I am likeliest to know about -- because they have the most contact with the outside world -- also are likeliest to adopt a special-needs child such as Julia from outside the community, and likeliest to have their children vaccinated.
Another qualifier: The Inions are converts to the Amish-Mennonite religion (Brent is an Asian-American). They simply might not know about any number of autistic Amish sheltered quietly with their families for decades.
It also is possible the isolated Amish gene pool might confer some kind of immunity to autism -- which might be a useful topic for research.
Whatever the case, Stacey-jean thinks the autistic Amish are nowhere to be found.
"It is so much more rare among our people," she said. "My husband just said last week that so far we've never met a family that li
Above nothing to do with the topic but neither has Stans stay in Sweden they dont ban kids from school for not having shots neither...Hidden Agenda or what as fo looking up Merk more fact comes from Walt Disney
There is a book called The Vaccination Bible. You can get it from Amazon. Until you have read it, you shouldn't feel educated enough on the vaccination debate to pass comment here. In short, although Angus is ranting hysterically, he does have a point (and every right to be angry.) Vaccines are not tested for safety or efficacy amongst the agegroups which they are used. Herd immunity is a myth. Measles, german measles, mumps and chickenpox are mild childhood diseases in healthy chilldren who live in clean houses and have access to fresh food and water. Vaccines often don't work, hence the need for boosters. They don't protect against all the strains of the disease. Immunity wears off after a few years. So what is happening now is that teenagers and adults are getting these diseases and the effects are much worse than if they had them when they were children. Most of these diseases have not, in fact, disappeared due to mass vaccination, they are either misdiagnosed as "just a virus" (GPs believe children can no longer get measles, so have no idea what they are looking for) or the names of the diseases have been changed (e.g. polio has been renamed aseptic meningitis and there are still as many cases.) Finally, most of these diseases come in cycles (usually about 20 years) – has anyone spotted that it's about 20 years since MMR etc started and the government keeps panicking that there will be an outbreak of measles or mumps any day. And has anyone spotted that these outbreaks usually occur amongst vaccinated children!
Anyway, what has this to do with the HPV vaccine? It's yet more chemicals we are being persuaded to pump into our children's bodies for the profit of large companies. I plan to teach (and already am) my 4 daughters and my son about healthy living and sex education. Poor sex education is a real problem in schools - ignorance has led us in the UK to the highest levels of STDs and teenage pregnancies. The safe sex message has been lost -
Read the book Health Myths Exposed by Shane Ellison and also go onto the Nexus magazine website and check an article about vaccines. Both of these are written by scientists with experience in the field, and are, I feel very openly written. neither of these authors stands to make big bucks, like the pharma industry are. these vaccines carry potent substances, they have been known to have lead and mercury in them as well as animal diseases, as they are derived from animals in some cases. I dangers are great snd the benefits are virtually nil. I would never have subject my children to them had I known then what I know now. Sudden infant cot death syndrome is strongly correlated with children who were vaccinated and occurs within days of recieving the vaccine. To prevent a scare and sudden loss of profits, these correlations are not widely known. They want us to keep taking the vaccines, and keeping big business going. Also please note that an eminent doctor from one of the big London hospital was sacked when he made similar observations between the increasing numbers of children who suffer from autism and have recieved the triple vaccination. This very contraversial vaccination would have created major losses of profits for the drug companies if this had been published. the thing was, as usual, swept under the carpet. Safe sex is the only answer. Please do not subject your children to more chemicals and big profits for the drug companies. No one tells us that cancer, aids, diabetes and heart disease are preventable or curable, if we only take responsibility for what we put into our bodies. Sometimes its just basic ignorance as in the case of myself. I simply didn't know. Good fats (essential oils like cold pressed olive oil and so on, omega 3s and high dose vitamin c are some of the answers and a basically good healthy diet. Sugar is THE MOST TOXIC SUBSTANCE we put into our body and cause myriad diseases. Wish you well. Love and peace.
Diane (post 14), most of what you say is reasonable, but I have to point out that our government are NOT concerned about the health of citizens, or the NHS would NOT be run or down graded the way it has (despite the flinging of cash at it). Our government are people who need money to go to the pols. Who funds that? Yes! You guessed that it is big business. We are not told of all the benefactors to their manifestos before they come to power. look at the cash for peerages scandal that is yet to be investigated properly and brought to the full attention of the public. Every time someone gets close, what happens? Another scare or focus on a war or some such thing to draw attention from their isdemeanours. And why would they be inflicting ID cards on us? Oh might it be because they think we are as corrupt and liable to criminal activities as themselves. When a government is corrupt, then every level of public office is corrupted and confused. Look at the public services, the constant changes have left the NHS in taters from the constant nanny interferers. Meantime, standardised prescribing protocols initiated from government offices (nanny knows better than the experts) and big pharma funded (therefore bised by the profiteers) research tells us this is how it should be. And why is the NHS being squeezed financially? Ask them what percentage of costs are for prescription drugs. And GPs earning £100,000.00 + in their salaries to comply and what you get for that is a 5 minute consultation (10 if your lucky) and in that time they can examine, diagnose and treat you or refer you on to a specialist who earns less. And this is what the government calls value for money. I would rather have a 30-60 minute consultation with someone who was hollistically interested in me and pay the going rate. Minus my percentage of the tax + insurance stamp, I would be saving and feel I had real choices in how I was treated, not only that, but they wouldn't talk to me as if I was some
May I remind everyone who has posted to this set of comments, both pro- and anti-vaccination, that that decision is totally up to the family/parents/care-givers, except in the case of those vaccines required by law here in the States before entry into a public school setting as a grade school student. Personally, I am in favour of the vaccines, as they have prevented my catching some specific diseases, and, with both hips having been replaced, due to very-early onset osteoarthiritis, being exposed to those diseases is even more dangerous to me than to someone my age (48), who has not had to have hip-replacement surgery.
I've just had a pleasant nights sleep. it looks like angus and a few others need a vaccine for the common internet disease called gullable pasteitis.i've never seen such concentrated rubbish in one place before.
If the vaccine will keep women later on in life from developing cervical cancer, why shouldn't it be distributed. It won't cause girls to have sex any sooner, so I don't think the Catholic Church is right on this one. Perhaps the Church doesn't understand the horror and pain that accompanies the cancer and should consider that this is a good thing. Victoria
Well said the last two e-mails cant resist it here’s a copy of our book in the uk which the UK courts have tried to keep from the public domain .The book has been very quickly written by our barrister who has represented my child and 9 others.

Its very sad 1800 families from the Uk with Vaccine damaged children were denied access to justice when the legal aid certificate were with drawn. So despite the myth that hardly anyone suffers from vaccines I would say its impossible to inject the most toxic substance known to man(MERCURY which is in all the vaccines despite what you are told) ,and not suffer brain damage how subtle or severe that damage is depends on a whole range of conditions .MMR R.I.P.
Ron catch a plane and have another sleep you don’t have a scooby what your talking about. In fact go have the flu jab you will be dead within 14months of that one .Hysterical and justified laughing resounding around the room…!!!! MMR R.I.P.
The catholic church needs to get the *&%! out of peoples bedrooms and look inside their own. The arrogant so and so's, assuming that they have the right to tell everyone how to live their lives. If the vaccine saves lives and people aren't against taking it then let them. Who do they think they are, dictating who can have kids and who can take measures to live longer. I think the Catholic church is getting a little too big for it's britches and they'd be better off not drawing so much attention to themselves. Whenever I hear the Catholic church standing on a soapbox I think of all those innocent alter boys victimized at the hands of the catholic church. Don't even get me started on those men in the black and red robes. If some high and mighty priest didn't dictate a few years back that the priests couldn't marry because if they died the little mrs got the spoils of the family instead of the church there might not be so many victimized little guys hiding in the shadows. Will someone please shut the Catholic Church up. They aren't God, why do 'we' let them play God in our lives?
Nev, Helen and others…..especially Angus of Oban who should be talking to NEV rather than me.Of course, anyone who has an infection should be treated accordingly but, like teaching children to look after their teeth to avoid extractions, so also should parents ensure that their responsibilities are exercised by teaching their very precious charges to enjoy their childhood and to avoid the sex, sex, sex mania prevalent in so many areas. How the parents approach this task (BJ, Glasgow)is up to them providing the result is that no sex among the young is the result. My point is that, unlike other infections which are treated by anticipatory vaccinations, we are talking about a sexually transmitted disease in age groups that ought not to be sexually active. The Catholic Church is saying that those young people…not nine-year olds – who, as often as not, because of indifferent parenting are cautiously, sexually, active - may feel that they needn’t worry so much as another obstacle to their promiscuity has been removed. Surely, regardless of the pros and cons of the proposed programme, no one can agree that the current trend of sexual activity amongst the very young is to be welcomed
As for you Angus, I can understand your sadness at having a boy with a problem but maybe it wasn't the vaccine. Millions and millions of kids have the MMR vaccine, I did, my kids did and we're all fine. It's like a kid being allergic to bee stings, you don't know it until you get stung. You can't blame the bee if the kid is allergic so it is with vaccines, there will be some who may be sensitive to it and suffer from it but that doesn't mean the vaccine is necessarily the villan, maybe the kids genetic make up is off somewhere and that just triggered it like a bee sting to an allergic child. Can anyone really say that the guys in the lab are actually sitting around saying things like, "What can we add to this vaccine to make kids sick" I don't think so. I think they probably take as many precautions as possible and in the long run the vaccines do more good than harm and save more lives than not. My dad had polio and if not for the polio vaccine he'd have been dead by age 10. I have a problem with pheumonia and until the vaccine became available I had pheumonia at least once a year, sometimes more than once. Since having the vaccine I haven't had it and my lungs are finally getting the opportunity to become stronger which will give me a greater chance of surviving longer. Taking a vaccine is an individual matter and should be left to the individual to make the decision to take it or not.
I'm with you Phil. Too often these days irresponsible parents leave their kids to be raised by school teachers and other's. If decent morals aren't being taught in the home where are the kids learning it? Probably no where because it's more the norm to have sex than to remain virtuous. Too many parents these days need a good swift kick in the butt. Whether they like it or not they took on the responsibility of possibly ending up a parent the minute they consented to sex, they should be living up to it's expectations. Kids don't know how to handle steamy situations, they're not equipped to be strong enough to stop when things heat up. If they learn from the very beginning that it's a good thing to wait for the right person then when the situation arises they'll be better equipped to say no. I also agree with Terry about the catholic church. Who the bleep are they to tell me whether or not my kids should get a possible life saving vaccine.
We can all see with our own eyes that vaccination has reduced polio, measles, whooping cough etc. It obviously works.
We also know that there has been a rise in problems such as autism, not quite as visual a disease as polio, but it is in epidemic proportions just the same.
Some people say this is due to the effects of the preservatives (mercury) in vaccines, possibly not the vaccines themselves. Governments have agreed, and have asked the pharma companies to reduce the amount of mercury in the vaccines.
So you can be against the vaccines, but not against vaccination. Research has to be done INDEPENDENTLY on how to eliminate mercury from vaccines. Perhaps modern methods of freezing might work, or maybe mercury is cheaper.
Please be aware that corporations actually pay people to monitor pages such as this, to ridicule emotional comments and promote their product.
I would think that any vaccine that would prevent a cancer would out weigh and be a good thing then the idea that it gives kids the permission to have sexual relations. If parents have a open relationship with their children then the idea of sexual activity wouldnt be a worry for those parents. It is time to wake up and we need to error on the side of prevention of a serious disease and to prevent this cancer. Bring it to the USA. I am now just hearing about this in the USA. Commercials are running on the TV all the time now.Nancy
Thank God, someone has found a vaccine for this deadly disease that caused me at the age of 25 to have a hysterectomy. I have had only one partner my entire 66 years on this earth. It was discovered by routine Pap smears, and the Dr. treated the virus then with a type of silver tincture to try and cure it, because of my young age, but did still needed the major surgery as it had spread to my uterus.I would like to know if there is a test that can be taken, to see who (especially the men), carrying this virus.

THE FOLLOWING OFFER is made to U.S.-licensed medical doctors who routinely administer childhood vaccinations and to pharmaceutical company CEOs worldwide:
Jock Doubleday, president of the California nonprofit corporation Natural Woman, Natural Man, Inc., hereby offers $20,000.00 (U.S.) to the first medical doctor or pharmaceutical company CEO who publicly drinks a mixture of standard vaccine additive ingredients in the same amount as a six-year-old child is recommended to receive under the year-2000 guidelines of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The mixture will not contain viruses or bacteria dead or alive, but will contain standard vaccine additive ingredients in their usual forms and proportions. The mixture will include, but will not be limited to: thimerosal (a mercury derivative), ethylene glycol (antifreeze), phenol (a disinfectant dye), benzethonium chloride (a disinfectant), formaldehyde (a preservative and disinfectant), and aluminum.
The mixture will be prepared by Jock Doubleday, three medical professionals that he names, and three medical professionals that the participant names.
The mixture will be body weight calibrated.

Re post 88Hi DianeUnfortunately vaccination has not reduced or eliminated these diseases. A better diet, clean water and improved sanitation has. Also, as I said in my post above GPs commonly misdiagnose, the names of the diseases have been changed in an attempt to hid the true numbers and these diseases go in cycles. I strongly agree with the comment above that it's a personal choice (at least in the UK), one that every parent has to make themselves regarding their own children. The problem is that to make a choice you need to be informed and parents in this country are not given unbiased information about vaccination, so many make their choice based on the rubbish fed to them by the government/drug manufactureres.I find it appalling that the USA make vaccination compulsary and very telling that because they do they are also obliged to have a compensatory programme for vaccine damaged children. The list of known accepted side effects is huge. Unfortunately, in the UK, side effects are massivly under reported. GPs do not look for correlation been symptoms and recent vaccination and the list of recognised side effects is much smaller.
Oh dear…I wish I didn’t have to keep on about the Catholic Church but that’s how all of this started. I will just summarize.1. The C.C. is not objecting to the medical treatment of this, or any other, infection.2. The C.C. advocates that parents must do their best to educate their children as already stated, thus minimising all such related infections.3. The C.C. does not wish those young people, who are susceptible to engaging in wrongful sex, due (as often as not) to their inadequate upbringing, to have any reason for abstention to be withdrawn. …end of story.I support Angus in Oban and my heart goes out to him, as, for other reasons he is in the difficult situation of having his little son damaged through no fault of his own…and I’m convinced that, somewhere, there is an answer to the MMR problem…..it’s just that it hasn’t yet been found or acknowledged. I was in a similar situation with my son except it wasn’t the result of medication. God bless you Angus, and all involved in your situation.
Thanks Phil hope life does you well and keep away from the vacs ..Nev gave me up postings ago..God BlessThe CC are always used and mis-represented in vaccine issues they are used a s scape goats for aids and the rest when the real truth is its the vaccines that caused it in the first place Thats the real fear for the goverments and Autism if you ever look at the guts of Autistic kids its the same as aids sufferers.Enough from me go onto www.whale.co.uk

Seems like some people (Comment 98) would be quite happy to push animals aside and do all of that is described in public and think that it is OK. Just like human intelligence lifts us out of the animal kingdom, so human behaviour determines where one is in the social order. The simplest of men/women who behave responsibly are high in the social order. I have been blessed with a loving family and took a real interest in guiding my family to make their own informed decisions which...surprise, surprise doesn't find them doing the things you seem to enjoy. However....each to his own, and good luck.

MERCK'S GARDASIL VACCINE NOT PROVEN SAFE FOR LITTLE GIRLSNational Vaccine Information Center Criticizes FDA for Fast Tracking Licensure
Washington, D.C. - The National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) is calling on the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) to just say "no" on June 29 to recommending "universal use" of Merck's Gardasil vaccine in all pre-adolescent girls. NVIC maintains that Merck's clinical trials did not prove the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine designed to prevent cervical cancer and genital warts is safe to give to young girls.
"Merck and the FDA have not been completely honest with the people about the pre-licensure clinical trials," said NVIC president Barbara Loe Fisher. "Merck's pre and post-licensure marketing strategy has positioned mass use of this vaccine by pre-teens as a morality play in order to avoid talking about the flawed science they used to get it licensed. This is not just about teenagers having sex, it is also about whether Gardasil has been proven safe and effective for little girls."
The FDA allowed Merck to use a potentially reactive aluminum containing placebo as a control for most trial participants, rather than a non-reactive saline solution placebo.[1] A reactive placebo can artificially increase the appearance of safety of an experimental drug or vaccine in a clinical trial. Gardasil contains 225 mcg of aluminum and, although aluminum adjuvants have been used in vaccines for decades, they were never tested for safety in clinical trials. Merck and the FDA did not disclose how much aluminum was in the placebo.[2]
Animal and human studies have shown that aluminum can cause nerve cell death [3] and that vaccine aluminum adjuvants can allow aluminum to enter the brain, [4 5] as well as cause inflammation at the injection site leading to chronic joint and muscle pain and fatigue. [6 7] Nearly 90 percent of Gardasil recipient

and how many of them had serious adverse events after being injected with Gardasil or the aluminum placebo. For example, if there were less than 1,000 little girls actually injected with three doses of Gardasil, it is important to know how many had serious adverse events and how long they were followed for chronic health problems, such as juvenile arthritis."
According to the Merck product manufacturer insert, there was 1 case of juvenile arthritis, 2 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, 5 cases of arthritis, and 1 case of reactive arthritis out of 11,813 Gardasil recipients plus 1 case of lupus and 2 cases of arthritis out of 9,701 participants primarily receiving an aluminum containing placebo. Clinical trial investigators dismissed most of the 102 Gardasil and placebo associated serious adverse events, including 17 deaths, that occurred in the clinical trials as unrelated.
"There is too little long term safety and efficacy data, especially in young girls, and too little labeling information on contraindications for the CDC to recommend Gardasil for universal use, which is a signal for states to mandate it," said Fisher. "Nobody at Merck, the CDC or FDA know if the injection of Gardasil into all pre-teen girls - especially simultaneously with hepatitis B vaccine - will make some of them more likely to develop arthritis or other inflammatory autoimmune and brain disorders as teenagers and adults. With cervical cancer causing about one percent of all cancer deaths in American women due to routine pap screening, it was inappropriate for the FDA to fast track Gardasil. It is way too early to direct all young girls to get three doses of a vaccine that has not been proven safe or effective in their age group."

Dearest Angus, ignorance IS NOT bliss. Love is bliss. Ignorance is something we get rid of through wisdom, and wisdom comes from knowing the truth, not from being intelligent. Animals are ignorant and always will be, some humans will become wise and most will remain ignorant. Like someone earlier said, the choice is up to the individual. Do we want ignorance or wisdom. Me, I'd chose wisdom. Wisdom NEVER EVER hurts anyone. It is born from knowing the truth, and being free from all mental defilements. The following are examples of mental defilements, which, if we chose the path of truth, we will strive to recognize and eliminate from our own minds: Greed Anger Pride Attachment Jealousy Grasping. We can deal with bad people and situations without anger. All wars are a result of anger. Who do we hurt most with our anger....ourself. We hurt others, but they can leave us on our own. And if we carry on with the painful soul destroying mind of anger, we effectively destroy all our relationships and continue to blame others. The way to stop this is to develop love, patience, and consideration for others and through this we realize a genuine compassion for others and even ourself whom we have put through all this unneccesary pain. No one else can stop us from making excuses to get angry. Notice the painful feeling of anger and ask yourself, 'do I want this theif of happiness in my mind?' If people didn't have these sick minds, do you think there would be bad things being done. With pure good minds and clear consciences, no lies would be told to cover up and no excuses made. Agenuine wish to make reparation and a sincere appology. Ask yourself if this is what is happening in your life and if you are victim to this. If you are victim then, without anger, stand up and challenge these actions and the right thing will always happen inyour favour. Angus, I wish you well in your challenge for reparation, we have heard you. Keep love at your heart for yours and others children wh
Comment 104. As with others, in straying from the thread of the article I would venture that Angus, in mentioning ignorance, left the complete adage "Where ignoranace is bliss, it's foolish to be wise" unsaid.
Forgive is not in my agenda not when they continue to destroy all the kids with these vaccines you dont really understand what is going on 104.STILL NOT TAKERS BELOW AND PREVIOUS E-MAIL 92 WHY??

Hear the silence???
I don't know exactly how a woman gets cervical cancer, but wouldn't always using a condom prevent, or reduce the chances of her getting it? That would also prevent her getting any one of the awful sexually transmitted diseases as well, whereas a vaccination would probably only be effective against one of them. Probably safer too in the long run, remember the wonder drug Thalidomide and what it did?
Add to this, eugenics and compulsory organ harvesting.http://www.orange.co.uk/news/topstories/30990.htmhttp://www.orange.co.uk/news/topstories/30822.htm
I seem to recall that around 1990 the Vatican released a statement listing the 10 Roman Catholics who had done most disservice to their faith. Forner German chancellor Adolf Hilter came second. In first place - the singer Madonna.
No I'm not laughing either.
