I guess, to clarify, None of the evidence has spoken to me as a parent. My main beef is the lack of long-term safety evidence. Really, until this is solid, my assumption is that vaccines may cause long-term chronic illness.

Vaccine studies are of interest to me but aren't going to sway my decision unless they provide indisputable evidence of long-term safety and efficacy.

I'm sending you a PM. I typed out a long response but realized it's a bit off-topic, and I also don't feel like playing good-cop bad-cop on the issue of science and vaccinations today. I'm all about sharing views, but have become quickly weary of online vaccination debates, given they're so ideological and polarizing.

Do you mind c/p'ing that pm and shooting it to me? I'd appreciate it!

There are long term studies done on vaccines; these are known as post-marketing surveillance, in which you, plural, the public, are the guinea pigs.

This is being done with the HPV as we post.

Let me add that when adverse events do occur as a result of a vaccine, the drug companies regroup and take no responsibility for the event. Furthermore, I have read that the drug companies have gone as far as to say that there is NO evidence that the swine flu vaccine of 1976 caused 50 deaths and over 500 cases of Guillan Barre. I beg to differ.

This was the reason the drug companies went to Congress to exempt and immunize them from litigation and liability. So the American taxpayer is on the hook for these adverse events now.

Right. It's so unethical. I don't understand how anyone could give the vaccine makers a dime after learning how VAERS and the vaccine court really works.
