Everyone is right in their opinions. We definitely do not know everything, so there is always the “you never know.” However, there been multiple major studies looking at possible correlations between vaccines and autism- they have found nothing indicating such a correlation. Again, we don’t know everything, so there could still be unseen linkages. But in the end, vaccines are a slightly different form of medication that has been proven to save how many lives? As with all drugs, there are side effects of widely varying degrees from nothing to death. Maybe the particular individual just has specific genes that makes them intolerable to one of these vaccines. Anyways, my point is that all miss McCarthy has with which to respond to the sound reasoning of these physicians is “this is bullshit?” You have to give me a better argument than that… Science has improved your life more than any degree of cautiousness can ever achieve. Perhaps her son DID develop autism from a vaccine; we don’t know the cause yet, but it’s not some “toxin” that is put into the vaccines on purpose. So how do we weed out who can and cannot get the vaccine? THROUGH MORE RESEARCH (if you haven’t noticed, we tend to learn through trial and error). I feel sorry for her case, but come on…blame the entire system for one statistic just because she happens to be a celebrity and can do so? Then, I wish we had one for each of the hundreds of thousands of people who die every year for whatever unjust reason you can think of…And why does she name only measles and not polio, hepatitis, meningitis, and so on that will you? I also wouldn’t go as far as to request that the needle is drawn “right in front of you” like you really understand what they’re doing anyways- are you able to verify EVERYTHING a doctor ever does in the procedures? If I am going to form this “suspicion bubble” about things that are designed to help me, then that just means I really have no faith in human society and can either form a new colony on a different planet to develop my utopia or just end my life right now. The former is quite impossible but the latter is quite attainable…

Three words to sum up my rambling: “such is life.” It is unfortunate but it happens and miss McCarthy needs to shut the “eff’ up about it, especially when her proof is derived from bovine dung.

This is a difficult subject matter to debate because, yes vaccines have succeeded, but at the same time there is no hard known facts yet. I had my own complications with my child and vaccines are the first culprate that everyone suggests. I have my own beliefs that vaccines are effective, but at the same time can cause problems. I believe that if you do decide to have your child vaccinated make sure that you are aware of what is being injected into your little boy or girl and I would personally ask the doctor to prepare the injection in front of me. I stand behind Jenny. She, like all of us, wants the best for her child and will stop at nothing to make sure he is taken care of.

Because autism is commonly diagnosed at around 2 years of age, and vaccines happen a little before that, people assume that they’re together. But the cause isn’t there any more than washing your car causes it to rain.

There are plenty of studies that point out that vaccines are safe and effective.

Measles is *not* like chickenpox. It can kill and it can cause sterility. It’s not something to be trifled with.
