The numbers don't lie, but your interpretation of them might.

Why don't you actually look at the research instead of reading snippets and believing everything you are told. Money drives a lot more than just science.

The use of polio as a vaccine example is an epic failure. There is a clear correlation between insecticide use and polio for instance. http://www.whale.to/vaccine/west5a.html When the polio vaccine for first introduced polio rates dramatically shot up. Most european governments even banned the polio vaccine. http://www.vaccinetruth.org/polio_vaccines.htm As of today the polio vaccine is the number one cause of polio. http://www.preventdisease.com/news/12/011812_Polio-Vaccinations-Are-Now-The-Number-One-Cause-of-Polio-Paralysis.shtml

There is some logic to that but not much. There is a clear correlation between insecticide use and polio for instance. http://www.whale.to/vaccine/west5a.html When the polio vaccine for first introduced polio rates dramatically shot up. Some governments even banned the polio vaccine. http://www.vaccinetruth.org/polio_vaccines.htm As of today the polio vaccine is the number one cause of polio. http://www.preventdisease.com/news/12/011812_Polio-Vaccinations-Are-Now-The-Number-One-Cause-of-Polio-Paralysis.shtml

The problem is he is pointing out systems like VARS which are woefully inadequate for vaccine related problems. There has been 2.5 billion paid out by the legal system for vaccine related injuries. http://www.hrsa.gov/vaccinecompensation/data.html I guarantee you that for every court case there is at least a 1000 others that doctors have explained away. Think about it for a second.

In 1975 Japan pushed all vaccines to 2 years or older. Their infant mortality dropped to the lowest in the world.

Humans have been born for quite a long time and have optimized themselves for that "normal" exposure to the environment. Thus the normal exposure is not really foreign at all. The mother through the breast milk can even pass antibodies to the child thus helping it further. The problem is the chemicals which are historically foreign.

A lot of problems were also caused because of malnutrition yet that is never really thought about.

The WHO also lists diet as a bigger risk to well being yet very little is being done about it. http://www.who.int/dietphysicalactivity/en/ People would much rather waste trillions on medical costs than fight the problem where it starts.

"Zero detectable health costs"? Look at http://www.hrsa.gov/vaccinecompensation/data.html. So far 2.5 billion has been paid out in court for vaccine related injuries. If you actually think about it for every case brought to court there is probably 100 or maybe a 1000 times more that doctors explain away. Vaccines are not nearly as clean cut as you think.

So you are saying all or none? Which is quite an unconvincing argument and then you tell me to pipe down? I think vaccines help quite a bit, but diet helps quite a bit more. Anyways, In 1975 Japan eliminated all vaccines for children under two and that when that happened; their infant mortality rate plummeted so that it was the lowest in the world.

I am not anti-vaccine by any means. I am just anti all vaccines for a newborn baby. Why pump a human, at its most critical stage, with a bunch of foreign chemicals? Does a newborn really need to be vaccinated against STD's? Why not wait until the child is more robust?

Actually I don't believe the Earth is 6000 years old and I don't believe in the literal truth of the Bible. I am just saying if there is something else that is plausible then why not at least discuss it. Does that not broaden the persons horizons? Single mindedness is bad for religious zealots as well as scientific ones.

I wholly agree. I think science and religion are two ways of looking at the same thing.
