Delays in Receipt of Immunizations in Low-Birth-weight Children

This article address the “concern” that some infants have a delay in receiving their immunizations. Immunizations are a very complicated, difficult issue. I have always been concerned at giving brand new infants with immature immune systems vaccines. Low birth weight infants have enough to deal with without worrying about taxing their immune systems with vaccinations. I am not 100% against vaccinations, but the sheer volume that newborns and infants receive concerns me. Recent articles have shed some light on the type and levels of mercury found in the thimerosal (used as a preservative). Couple that with the infant’s inability to clear mercury from their systems, and the prescription for harm to the nervous system is possible. Parents need to be FULLY informed and make their own personal decisions; NOT mandated by a government notoriously frought with influence from the pharmaceutical firms.

Predicted Mercury Concentrations in Hair From Infant Immunizations

For those parents blindly leading their little sheep to the slaughter, this article should raise some very, very important concerns. Essentially, no one ever thought to look at the levels of mercury that infants were exposed to in their 22 vaccinations in the first 18 months. Turns out the levels would be considered extremely toxic for adults, let alone children. And keep in mind that infants do not have a blood brain barrier that is able to keep this mercury out. With this in mind, does anyone think that the rapid increase in ADD/ADHD and autism might be related to this neurotoxic exposure in susceptible infants???

Our sterilized society is responsible for the increased rates of atopic disorders – (06-10-04)

The defence of dirt

This is a neat commentary about the theory that our sterilized society is responsible for the increased rates of atopic disorders. I strongly agree with this theory. The increased rates of immunizations coupled with the rampant use of antibiotics (without replacing with probiotics) leads to a Th2 dominant state. This does not happen in a vacuum–it is the end outcome of a serious of events that leads to the imbalance of the immune system.
