    “This idea some pro-vaxxers have that all people who don’t vaccinate are crazies and uneducated is just mind-boggling.”

    Ok, so then they are all Reshoim!

    “And, to set the record straight once and for all, I PERSONALLY spoke with a gadol, one of the elder tzaddikim in america, and he told me (yes, this is a direct quote), “Stay away from vaccines. (me: All of them?) Yes, all of them”. And no, this was not a personal psak based on my situation. This was what he told me before we even discussed my family’s health. A general rule. And no, this was not 10 years ago before there was an outbreak. This was less than two weeks ago.
    I’m sorry I am not publishing his name, but I did not ask his permission to do that. If you want to ask me directly, perhaps the mods can put you in touch with me so that you can ask the shaila for youself.”

    Ok, let’s say you’re telling the truth. Maybe there is a another one or two that agree with the Anti-vaxxers. I want you to go back to him & ask what to do about vaccines. Tell him Rov Gedolim & Poskim hold you must vaccinate. You can even show him the articles on YWN. Ask him if he holds that Psak is like the Rov. Ask him why we Pasken like Bais Hillel over Bais Shammay.

After all, I brought them into the world and I am responsible for their wellbeing. If a vaccine permanently damages my children I am responsible for taking care of them for the rest of their life, and therefore it should be my choice and not a State mandate!”

    You can have that choice when you live in a forest or when you move to Guatamala.

    Doomsday -“Before the measles vaccination program started in 1963, an estimated 3 to 4 million people got measles each year in the United States. Of these, approximately 500,000 cases were reported each year to CDC; of these, 400 to 500 died, 48,000 were hospitalized, and 1,000 developed encephalitis (brain swelling) from measles.”
    “If 3-4 MILLION got measles and 1:1,000 die then 3,000-4,000 should have died.”

    Doomsday -“Health, you lack reading comprehension. The Merck Manual says that vaccines can cause encephalitis. And encephalitis can cause autism. AND the Merck Manual also says we don’t know what causes autism, it appears to have a genetic component.
    Don’t you see how Merck is talking out of both sides of their mouth? THEY ADMIT THAT VACCINES CAN CAUSE ENCEPHALITIS (which can cause autism) but then they LIE and say “we don’t know what causes autism”!
    Anyone with good reading comprehension would notice that Merck is contradicting itself!”

    Because of your silliness – I went online to the Merck Manual.

    Here’s what it says about Autism:
    “The specific cause in most cases of autism spectrum disorders remains elusive. However, some cases have occurred with congenital rubella syndrome, cytomegalic inclusion disease, phenylketonuria, tuberous sclerosis complex, or Fragile X syndrome.
    Strong evidence supports a genetic component. For parents of one child with an autism spectrum disorder, risk of having a subsequent child with an autism spectrum disorder is 50 to 100 times greater. The concordance rate of autism is high in monozygotic twins. Research on families has suggested several potential target gene areas, including those related to neurotransmitter receptors ( serotonin and gamma-aminobutyric acid [GABA]) and CNS structural control (HOX genes). Environmental causes have been suspected but are unproved. There is strong evidence that vaccinations do not cause autism, and the primary study that suggested this association has been withdrawn because its author falsified data (see also MMR vaccine and autism).
    Differences in brain structure and function probably underlie much of the etiology of autism spectrum disorders. Some children with autism spectrum disorders have enlarged ventricles, some have hypoplasia of the cerebellar vermis, and others have abnormalities of brain stem nuclei.”

And the so called “thimerosal-free” vaccines still contain so-called “trace amounts” of Thimerosal. So Thimerosal was not really removed, it was SHUFFLED Around. That is why Autism rates continued to rise.”

    Your posts are getting more absurd by the minute! Do me a favor – don’t respond anymore to me.
    But I’ll explain this one – how many kids in the US actually get the Flu shot? Parents are very reluctant to give it.
    So the CDC is correct – “Even after thimerosal was removed from almost all childhood vaccines, autism rates continued to increase, which is the opposite of what would be expected if thimerosal caused autism.”
    The CDC said “almost” to mean it’s still in the Flu vax and maybe some others.

    now the psychologists have defined those disorders separately.

    doomsday -“YOUR ARE WRONG! According to CDC and FDA government organizations Thimerosal contains Mercury (50%)
    CDC quote: “Thimerosal is a mercur y-containing compound ”
    FDA quote: “Thimerosal, which is approximately 50% mercury by weight”
    FDA quote: infants could have been exposed to cumulative levels of mercury during the first six months of life that exceeded Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended guidelines for safe intake of methylmercury.”

    Where did they get it? From paint or fish?
    I hate to do this but the so-called “Frum” Anti-vaxxers can’t stop with their LYING!
    I’d like to just ignore them, but they caused/causing an epidemic in Frum commmunties everywhere.

    From the CDC:
    “Thimerosal is a mercury-based preservative that has been used for decades in the United States in multi-dose vials (vials containing more than one dose) of medicines and vaccines. There is no evidence of harm caused by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines, except for minor reactions like redness and swelling at the injection site. However, in July 1999, the Public Health Service agencies, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and vaccine manufacturers agreed that thimerosal should be reduced or eliminated in vaccines as a precautionary measure.

    Thimerosal contains ethylmercury.
    Mercury is a naturally occurring element found in the earth’s crust, air, soil, and water. Two types of mercury to which people may be exposed — methylmercury and ethylmercury — are very different.
    Methylmercury is the type of mercury found in certain kinds of fish. At high exposure levels methylmercury can be toxic to people. In the United States, federal guidelines keep as much methylmercury as possible out of the environment and food, but over a lifetime, everyone is exposed to some methylmercury.
    Thimerosal contains ethylmercury, which is cleared from the human body more quickly than methylmercury, and is therefore less likely to cause any harm.
    Thimerosal prevents the growth of bacteria in vaccines.
    Thimerosal is added to vials of vaccine that contain more than one dose (multi-dose vials) to prevent growth of germs, like bacteria and fungi. Introduction of bacteria and fungi has the potential to occur when a syringe needle enters a vial as a vaccine is being prepared for administration. Contamination by germs in a vaccine could cause severe local reactions, serious illness or death. In some vaccines, preservatives, including thimerosal, are added during the manufacturing process to prevent germ growth.
    The human body eliminates thimerosal easily.
    Thimerosal does not stay in the body a long time so it does not build up and reach harmful levels. When thimerosal enters the body, it breaks down to ethylmercury and thiosalicylate, which are readily eliminated.
    Thimerosal has been shown to be safe when used in vaccines.
    Thimerosal use in medical products has a record of being very safe. Data from many studies show no evidence of harm caused by the low doses of thimerosal in vaccines.
    There are some side effects of thimerosal in vaccines.
    The most common side-effects are minor reactions like redness and swelling at the injection site. Although rare, some people may be allergic to thimerosal.
    Scientific research does not show a connection between thimerosal and autism.
    Research does not show any link between thimerosal in vaccines and autism, a neurodevelopmental disorder. Many well conducted studies have concluded that thimerosal in vaccines does not contribute to the development of autism. Even after thimerosal was removed from almost all childhood vaccines, autism rates continued to increase, which is the opposite of what would be expected if thimerosal caused autism.”

    You don’t understand the MO of the Anti-vaxxers! They always thought that they are the real practicers of medicine. Like Dr. Roberts said don’t bother arguing with them – it’s a waste of Time!

    Crone -“Measles, for those of us old enough to remember, was a nuisance, but not life threatening”

    Stop with your lying! I do believe your statistics. I did some research on your post.
    Your post is what all the Anti-vaxxers say to defend themselves!
    I did the research to show the fallacy in the Anti-vaxxer Cult.
    When I say I believe your statistics – I’m going to prove that you & the rest of the Anti-vaxxers are wrong.
    Maybe someone else will disprove the articles.

    Cancer causes death usually around 60-70’s.
    Cancer deaths in childhood aren’t caused by the things in your post.
    So therefore kids should get the MMR. According to Real statistics, eg. Measles vax prevents childhood death approximately .1 – .3%.
    So the bottom line is – do you care only about yourself or do you care about your and e/o else’s kids?!?

    akuperma – That is similar to a poster on Lakewood Scoop. He wrote if the schools would kick out the Anti-vaxxers – there wouldn’t be the issue, in our generation, of rejection letters!

    chan56 -“Again chutzpah–who are “these people” anyway? Your neighbors, friends, and other ehrliche people in the community.”

    The Only CHUTZPAH is coming from the Anti-vaxxers!!!

    Btw, they aren’t My neighbors, or friends.
    And they definitely aren’t EHRLICH!
    From YWN News:
    “Whoever isn’t vaccinated is a murderer” – so reads a Kol Koreh signed by leading Gedolim and Poskim in Eretz Yisroel.

    sariray -“Yes, profit is a good motivator to lie to the public”

    I agree! Are you making Profit when you sell your Alternative Meds Stuff?!?

    “The omitted data suggested that African American males who received the MMR vaccine before age 36 months were at increased risk for autism. ”

    The lies keep coming! Was it a double-bind study?

    “Statins don’t heal high blood pressure ”

    They aren’t meant to!!!!

    adocs -“Please explain the tremendous drop in the incidence of the diseases (to which vaccinations are available) after those vaccinations became available and began to be widely used.”

    It’s a waste of time to argue with these people.
    Like Doc Roberts posted on the Lakewood scoop.

    chan56 – YOU ANTI-VAXXERS NEVER STOP WITH YOUR LIES! No wonder there is an epidemic in the Frum communities.
    “This is a link to a study that just came out linking aluminum in vaccines to bizarre behavior in sheep”

    It’s IRONIC that you brought a study using sheep. Because the Anti-vaxx movement think like SHEEP!

    From the CDC:
    “Adjuvants have been used safely in vaccines for decades.
    Aluminum salts, such as aluminum hydroxide, aluminum phosphate, and aluminum potassium sulfate have been used safely in vaccines for more than 70 years. Aluminum salts were initially used in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s with diphtheria and tetanus vaccines after it was found they strengthened the body’s immune response to these vaccines.
    Newer adjuvants have been developed to target specific components of the body’s immune response, so that protection against disease is stronger and lasts longer.
    In all cases, vaccines containing adjuvants are tested for safety and effectiveness in clinical trials before they are licensed for use in the United States, and they are continuously monitored by CDC and FDA once they are approved.”

    Haimy -“indicates that high baseline vaccination coverage in the general community was probably effective against further spread of measles.”

    That’s because those Goyim vaccinate, not like the Anti-vaxxers in our communities!
    This is called herd immunity.
