Dum-Dums that don't take Vaccinations

[Veritass]

A small note about the chicken pox.

We purposely exposed our children to chicken pox when they were younger (3 and 5), so they would get it and get done with it. The girls next door had it, so we let them play together with our children so our children would get it.

What we didn't know was that the stronger/harder you get exposed to it, the worse case you will contract. One of our sons took a bath with the girl next door, and he got a horrendous case of chicken pox, such that he was in pain just walking around. He had pox under his arms such that he couldn't put his arms down comfortably.

Go ahead and let them contract it, but only in a reasonable dose.

I didnt vaccinate my kids with the chicken pox serum since it wasnt 100 percent effective. I to allowed my two younger childern to play with my olde son who was infected. Problem with chicken pox is that the child with it is only contagious during the time of the fever. My duaghter who got the chien pox from my son got a mild version of it. a year later with the help of a kid at school she got a worse case of it. with that case my youngest son got a case of the chicken pox as well.
On another level we as parents here in texas are being forced to get the gets a hepatitis A vaccine now im not a immunologists but hep A is not really life threatineg and has been compared to a bad case of food poisining. whats the point if the vaccine cant stop all the strains of hep A

Yes, this is one of those tenuous political situations. If you are against having vaccines for normal, non-life-threatening diseases, then you must be pro-disease.

[Kuciwalker]

Chicken pox is life-threatening.

I have a small bumb fromt he small pox vaccine

Depends on the person, I have fair skin so it scared me more, just a centimeter by centimeter rough patch.

My friend (who serves in the lithuanian SF), before he went to participate in Enduring Freedom, got so many vaccinations that his health was completely ****ed up. That or the case of "pipe sh|ts".

When I got mobilized for Iraq I found out that the Army had lost my vaccine records. I had to get something like 28 vaccines for a second time.

Oerdin: "Are you sure you can't find the file any where"?
Nurse: "Nope."
Oerdin: "Alright. Let's get this over with. Just give them all to me now."
Nurse: "Uhh, no."
Oerdin: "Why not?"
Nurse: "Because you will die if I give you 28 vaccinations at one time."

Don't you want them to get their nutritious nuerotoxin?

Or how about giving age groups inappropriate vaccines. Like, say, hepatitus B to newborns. With the fact being hep B is spread as a STD and from intravaneous drug use. A newborn needs to be posioned with mercury for hep that early in its life?

That claim has been debunked a million times. It's all a load of horse pucky.

Chickenpox vaccine should not be administered until the child is 12 months old because it may retain some antibodies transferred from the mother. These circulating antibodies might reduce the efficacy of the vaccine.

Your daughter may not have gotten chickenpox twice, there are some other viral diseases, such as "hand and mouth disease" and molluscum contagiosum which may cause similar rashes.

Neither I nor Theben have ever had chicken pox, and not for lack of exposure. Bunnygrrl caught chicken pox about a year after we started dating. I'm trying to get my hands on some vaccine.

Oh, and my dad recently had shingles, even though he had chicken pox as aa kid.

For awhile there was a concern about the overall load of thimersol, a mercury containing preservative commonly used in vaccines. The medical community responded to the potential threat by combining vaccines like the MMR, the DTaP, the HiB-HepB, and the Polio-HiB-HepB. There are still some in the medical community who preach against today's immunization practices, but they've been successfully contained and marginalized so the great project to enslave mankind continues.

Polluting our precious bodily fluids.

I've had all four: measles, mumps, rubella, and chicken pox. Mom was especially careful to see to it that I got exposed to rubella before she got pregnant with my little brother. That was family planning 1950s style.
I got lucky with polio, our town was spared from a minor epidemic which struck upstate NY in the mid 1950s.

The Chicken-pox virus inserts itself in the DNA of infected cells and can reactivate later in life, hence you dad's case of shingles.

I got measles and chicken pox but not mumps or rubella. Polio? Nope, none of that in my neck of the woods for decades and decades thanks in no small part to the vaccine.
