I realize that some have seen effective results with them.

I would rather avoid the reactions, myself.

I totally agree. but for people that do vax and there are reactions. I think homeopathy can be helpful

I guess my criticism would be, how do you know that they don't do harm? We are concerned about vax reactions that happen less often then 1/10,000 doses. Since homeopathy isn't really a science based thing, perhaps a science based criticism isn't relevant.

I'm glad we agree on the maths for the dilution. I doubted myself a little. I had thought that it was usually water rather than alcohol that was used to do the dilutions, but I'm prepared to believe I'm wrong.

Admittedly homeopathic is not science based so this type of citicism isn't relevant, but in terms of saftey in general, Homeopathy has over 200 years of documented safety and in general homeopathy is not killing hundreds of thousands of people a year. The same cannot be said of allopathic medicines.

In terms of vax reactions IMO they happen more often than the literature leads peopel to believe. Its just that most of the time the reaction id denied to be from the vaccine. Most saftey studies only monitor post vax for up to 30 days. NOt long enough IMO.

Neither is whistling Dixie.

I apologise for the facetiousness of that last comment, but it is no good to only talk about the harm something does. You have to look at the benefit at the same time. Loads of people choke to death eating food every year, you have to look at the benefits.

What about epidemiological studies?

not sure I follow that analogy. Im no choking expert but don't most people choke because they eat too fast or don't chew their food enough...not because there is something inherently dangerous about the food itself.

I never said allopathic medecine has NO benefit. I think, escpecially when used outside of life saving situations that it may do more harm than good. This is just my opinion. Not interested in a debate.

Fair enough. Apologies if I was too pushy.

You weren't! No worries. I know from other threads that some people on here are all about the debate. (you seem like you like a good debate!) which is fine but it's really not my thing. I just like to give my opinion/point of view and why I feel like I do and the person can take from it what they will or totally ignore it. Makes no difference to me.

You're right. I do love a good debate, but they aren't the only way to the truth. Catch you on another thread.
