Never said vaccines cause Lupus. What I said was:
"We have had a huge spike in auto-immune disease without understanding why. No one knows the cause or cure for Lupus. "
The point is that we should learn about current auto-immune disease, including causes, before we profess to know how to tinker with the immune system. We have a lot of diseases on the rise, such as auto-immune. We should make it a TOP PRIORITY to understand why auto-immune disorders are increasing.
The third most common disease category, after cancer and heart disease, is autoimmune disease (AD), affecting 5% to 8% of the U.S. population. Autoimmunity is the second highest underlying cause of >100 serious chronic illnesses, with >50 million Americans possessing at least one serious chronic illness. The National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) Office of Research on Women’s Health has declared autoimmune disease to be a major women’s health issue because it is one of the 10 leading causes of death in women aged 80 conditions are associated with autoimmunity.
As long as causes are unknown, we have no idea what things we are doing that we think are "safe" that are causing these diseases. Not knowing that A causes B does not make A safe. Until we know what causes B, there are a lot of unsafe we just don't know are unsafe, yet.
