Immunizations and Side Effects

I have some important information to share in regards to immunizations. Since Kristen is up for her last round this summer – better late than never I guess, I did some research into the current issues with mercury in immunizations and the fact than many believe it is the cause of autism as well as other nervous system disorders. They continue to argue this as our autisic population grows at an alarming rate not to mention ADD and ADHD.

When it is time for your child or children to be immunized, as you are making the appointment with your doctor, let them know you want to see the bottle and packaging to ensure it is Thimerosal free and to prepare the dose when you get there. Will they be irritated by your request? Probably. Will they tell you there is no proof it’s linked to autism? Probably. Who cares! It’s not their child. Make sure you see the packaging and that they do not draw it until you arrive.

Thimerosal is a preservative used so they can bottle vaccines in larger amounts (less cost for them) and get several doses out of one bottle. When the bottle is opened, bacteria gets in. The preservative, Thimerosal, helps kill the bacteria. At the cost of cardiovascular disease, autism, seizures, mental retardation, hyperactivity, dyslexia, ADD, and a host of other nervous system conditions, you want to be sure your child is getting their vaccine from a one dose bottle!
