John,
Good, thoughtful comment, but this isn’t the right place to point out any of the many dangers of vaccines. I liked it, though.

I think every Colorado's moms should read this article. Full of helpful information and some great tips. I found another site coloradomovers.org with such good information.

Good post, MSM, I’m surprised they haven’t taken you down for it. I think attention has wandered away from this record-breaking thread.

Seth Mnookin took on TLC piece “why we shouldn’t we vaccinate our children”. http://blogs.plos.org/thepanicvirus/2012/05/15/taking-stupid-to-a-whole-new-level-tlcs-entry-for-the-worst-piece-written-about-vaccines/

Then days later in response to TLC’s ‘response’. http://blogs.plos.org/thepanicvirus/2012/05/18/tlcs-vaccine-misinformation-piece-vanishes-into-the-ether-do-they-owe-readers-an-explanation-also-chicago-sun-times-endorsement-of-anti-vaccine-conference-remains-online/

@ don’t believe…Have you got any studies that back up your POV? Or, are you just trolling here with your inanities?

Excuse me, and folks who post here, who really know biochemistry, immunology and the epidemiology of vaccine-preventable diseases…sometimes we do get a little strident.

If you have ever cared for a child left with permanent neurological sequelae or who died from a vaccine-preventable disease, you *might* understand why we are a wee bit testy when ignorant people *quote* anecdotes in lieu of science.

Here, are pictures from the Immunize.org website of infants who contracted varicella. (Not for the faint-hearted):

http://www.immunize.org/photos/chickenpox-photos2.asp

Note the pictures of bullous varicella lesions and hemorrhagic varicella lesions on babies who are too young to have been immunized against the virus.

Please ignore delusional troll. It hates children. It has already been banned from other websites…including a website which is notoriously tolerant of “alternative” non-scientific germ theories and other pseudoscience viewpoints.

Lawrence : There is no point in debating someone who doesn’t live on the same planet or the same reality as the rest of us,

That's a typical sheep behaviour.

Wow, there are so many holes in what u just said that I can’t even count it. So your medical professionals are the correct ones because they choose to vaccinate? And just because a chiropractor doesn’t have an “MD” in their title does not mean they aren’t a medical dr. Everything you said could go both ways, how do you know anti vax research is wrong and pro vax is the correct one? And that was a rhetorical question, I don’t reall.y want to hear your answer because I’ve already heard it before and don’t agree. The anti vax research can entirely be the correct research and the others be wrong. No drs don’t know everything and can make terrible mistakes, but only non vax drs, right? You do have to see the double standard of everything you have said. And I find it ironic how you think anti vax drs are in it for the money and fame, I think you’re totally backward in that statement. As I stated b4, the money comes from all the ” uncurable ” diseases that these vaccines cause as side effects. I say “uncurable” loosely because in medical standpoints, there are no cure, only drug after expensive drug to mask symptoms and do nothing to solve the real problem, and have more side effects that are a lot of times worse than what you were given the drug for. But I’ve heard a ton of testimonials from people who have been cured by natural remedies, but I’m sure none of you would believe that either. I would tell you of all the proof I have seen in my family, because there is a lot of it, but I don’t wish to be ridiculed and called a liar like you have done to others on here. And im sorry Lara that you were treated terribly on other sites, but every non vax site I have been on, I have not seen that happen, I have only seen the pro vax side saying comments like “you should be killed/beaten the $*!+ out for not vaxxing” “you people are f**king retards” “you’ll be sorry when your kid gets (insert illness here) and dies” etc. Those are all such terrible things to say, I would never say well, you’ll be sorry when your kid gets autism/diabetes/chrons/MS/ADHD/asthma, and I have personally never seen anti vaxxers be so mean with the exception of someone continuously insulting them till they’ve had enough. But I digress, my point is all these reasons you say that the facts about the dangers of vaccines are wrong are the same reasons that they can be right. And don’t tell me I’ve only thought about this with my heart and not my head, because you don’t know me and you don’t know the countless amount of hours I’ve spent researching both sides of this debate b4 I chose a side. I have one child that was fully vaxxed and another that is totally unvaxxed and the differences in the two of them are remarkable. I didn’t just listen to the scare tactics of the pro vax side and just go along with it like I did my first child, I decided to find out for myself and make my own decision, not the decision I was told to make. One last note b4 I quit, you do know that drs/clinics get bonuses for pushing more vaccines on people right? To me that sounds like they’re caring more about money than the health and well being of your family. Oh and some of those drs who choose not to vaccinate their family, still push the vaccines on their patients anyway.

Shows the total lack of confidence in your debating skills, even during the SBM and RI days. How goes it infection promoter?

It won’t be long before the herd will soon show its distrust to this site (see what happened to SBM and RI, laying low on vaccine topics) once they come to realize that they are being lied, deliberately misled and deceived by these infection promoters.

People can read, investigate and learn from their mistakes. I don’t know about the sheep.
