delcecchi Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Oh, and actually the author, a Dr Wakefield, had his medical license revoked for his falsifications and ethical violations... Vaccinations should be mandatory, except for possibly narroly tailored religious exemptions. Sorry, Libertarians. Unless you want to make it convenient for anyone who contracts one of these diseases to sue the group of the unvaccinated for damages.

DrJuice1980 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Crazy how you only question differing views. You should question everything, especially what you think you already know. Nothing feels better than proving yourself wrong and seeing what you couldn't before. Try it, just once. Try not to be a know it all in every topic. Your character becomes very transparent and predictable. Maybe the system is so big that they are going to shut out any naysayers, even take them out. Do be so naive, the world is an ugly place and you're typically the pawn. It doesn't hurt to question your own beliefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one state - California, has passed a law doing away with exemptions for vaccinations. This happened last summer, so the whole deal is on more or less of a trial basis at this point. So you might be waiting a very long time for this ideal of yours to actually happen in all 50 states. Odds are, you will be dead before then.

And I didn't have any lasting effects from those diseases. Lucky me. Other states had more restrictive exemptions from the start. This is a matter of science versus ignorance and fear.

Fair enough. Then she promoted her line of green cleaners for hospitals and it seemed she got it done by leaning on hospitals like the mob does. "Minions" is a great kid animated movie but Bobber isn't Del's minion...he's Reb's minion I'm RH's minion! Finally, I remember walking around my grandparents cemetery they were buried in. Pretty sad to see the baby and young kids that had died from whooping cough and other diseases our kids are safe from now. All those deaths were in a window of a year or two when the outbreak was heavy. But yer my minion on the food thread, fella. Like it or not. Proof, you were videoed playing with a Dotch farm toy.

As of right now, all 50 states still have exemptions for vaccinations other than medical reasons. This is obviously something you feel very strongly about, so go ahead and knock yourself out getting it changed...

leechlake Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Let me chime in. Recently I am getting over some sort of "bug". Whatever it is my body has fought it and I now have some sort of immunity against it. Sweet! If I want to get an immunization for something I've never had like the mumps they take dead virus and put it in me and that makes me immune from the mumps. Besides the sting of the needle and it being tender for a day in 99% plus of cases there is no ill effects and now I'm immune from the mumps. What's the big whoop? Are you telling me that MD's across the world and country that are pro vaccinations are all drinking some Kool Aid and that immunizations are baloney because 1% of society finds something wrong with them? The answer surely isn't that we're all lambs following the lead of the big bad wolf is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one thing, it's really not MDs who push for mandatory vaccinations, it is typically the big drug companies. But outside of that, how do you feel about using vaccinations for population control, for example? Remember, if vaccinations are made mandatory, you would not be included in this type of decision, this would be by "central committee". fishersofmen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leechlake Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 really wasn't talking about some outlier idea like contraception; mumps, measles, polio the "normal" stuff. Get real. You bring up some "what if" issue. If I did that in my previous 48 years of life I would have missed out on a million things. 1. Should I go hunting today? What if I get shot? 2. should I go fishing today? What if I drown? Suddenly the big bad government is going to shoot everyone full of contraception vaccine.

Two of the most progressive states, California and Vermont, already have legislation in the works for mandatory vaccination. If you can't see the importance of keeping the voluntary aspect intact, there's probably nothing anyone could do or say to make you change your mind. But if you look, you can see an agenda. Bill Gates, for one, is on the record for promoting the idea of vaccination for population control. DrJuice1980 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Gates, for one, is on the record for promoting the idea of vaccination for population control. California is returning to more mandatory vaccination because they have had several outbreaks of contagious disease. I think the Disneyland measles one was the latest, and the final straw. The diseases can spread because the exemptions allowed "herd immunity" to be compromised. Most people agree that having outbreaks of measles, mumps, pertussis, and polio are bad things.

Most of us will be long gone before large measures will be put into play. Welcome to the forum JigSawJimmy. Yes, that is something along the lines of what Gates has said, and has also apparently backed it up with some large donations from his foundation..

delcecchi Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 And the Gates effort mostly goes to places with brown, black, and yellow people. The developed world mostly already has a birth or fertility rate of below replacement and most developed countries have been so for years. The US was the last to go below replacement so far as I know. That is one reason economic growth is slow in the US and Europe. "They" don't need to vaccinate US and Europe for birth control since the people have been doing a pretty good job all by them selves, exercising their freedom to do so. And you can include China in the below replacement group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJuice1980 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 You mean like eating like garbage and paying the same health insurance premiums as a health conscious individual? Everybody should have their premiums adjusted for the risks involved in their life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
