Here's a resource page I've put together, edited a bit to avoid copyright violations...

Optimization of vaccine responses in early life: the role of delivery systems and immunomodulators.

This expert has also stated that in his experience of treating vaxed and unvaxed children, (for over 20 years) the unvaxed are healthier.

Virus-induced autoimmunity may play a causal role in autism

Personally, I think a lot of the auto immune problems our children are suffering from today are vaccine induced.

Puzzling associations between childhood infections and the later occurrence of asthma and

There are data to suggest that measles, hepatitis A, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in early life may prevent the subsequent development of atopic diseases.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/...7&dopt=Abstract

Unlike hepatitis B and hepatitis C, hepatitis A causes no long-term liver damage and usually does not cause death. There is no chronic carrier state with hepatitis A. Having had the disease produces lifelong immunity from future hepatitis A infection.

Based on the growing number of children allergic to peanuts, I tried to find out if any type of peanut oil was used in the vaccines. From what I could find, it may be used in vaccines for animals, but I have not yet found conclusive evidence that it’s used in vaccines for people. This is something I am still interested in getting to the bottom of.

Task Force on Safer Childhood Vaccines: Final Report and Recommendations

http://www.niaid.nih.gov/publicatio...e/safervacc.htm

Because the PDR was originally developed as a promotional device, there is no mechanism by which all clinically relevant dose-response data or important postrelease discoveries are regularly and rapidly incorporated into it.

Is infant immunization a risk factor for childhood asthma or allergy?

Kemp T, Pearce N, Fitzharris P, Crane J, Fergusson D, St George I, Wickens K, Beasley R.

Department of Medicine, Wellington School of Medicine, New Zealand.

The Christchurch Health and Development Study comprises 1,265 children born in 1977. The 23 children who received no diphtheria/pertussis/tetanus (DPT) and polio immunizations had no recorded asthma episodes or consultations for asthma or other allergic illness before age 10 years; in the immunized children, 23.1% had asthma episodes, 22.5% asthma consultations, and 30.0% consultations for other allergic illness. Similar differences were observed at ages 5 and 16 years. These findings do not appear to be due to differential use of health services (although this possibility cannot be excluded) or con-founding by ethnicity, socioeconomic status, parental atopy, or parental smoking.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/...9&dopt=Abstract

..."Part of the premise for Representative Burton’s press release was his statement that the 2003 Physicians Desk Reference (PDR) showed that there are three vaccine manufacturers who are still making childhood vaccines with full doses {his term} of thimerosal. Specifically, his press release of May 1, 2003 stated:

“The 2003 Physicians’ Desk Reference shows that there are three vaccine manufacturers who are still making childhood vaccines with full doses of thimerosal. These are as follows: the Diphtheria-Tetanus-acellular-Pertussis (DTaP) manufactured by Aventis-Pasteur in multi-dose vials contains 25 micrograms of mercury; the Haemophilus-influenza-Type b (Hib TITER) in multi-dose vials manufactured by Wyeth contains 25 micrograms of mercury; and the pediatric hepatitis B vaccine manufactured by Merck contains 12.5 micrograms of mercury. These vaccines represent approximately half of the childhood vaccines currently available for use in the United States.”


Were thimerosal-containing childhood vaccines still listed in the 2003 PDR and did that mean that they were still available in the marketplace?

In an effort to better understand how a vaccine could be listed in the most current PDR showing that it contains thimerosal when it is no longer manufactured as such, we contacted PDR directly and asked how the information in their reference books is kept current.

The PDR is published yearly by Thomson Healthcare in Montvale, NJ. Manufacturers pay to have their products listed in the PDR and a free copy of the PDR is distributed to office-based physicians.


Manufacturers can decide at any time to discontinue production, however, once a manufacturer makes such a decision it is not uncommon for them to keep the information in the PDR for at least a couple of years. The reasons for doing this are varied. Having unexpired product still available in the market, or a recommendation from legal council that a product listing be maintained are but two of the many potential reasons why essentially outdated information may still be maintained in the PDR.

VACCINES--FINDING THE BALANCE BETWEEN PUBLIC SAFETY AND PERSONAL CHOICE

Mr. Cummings. Have there been any published peer review studies that show a link between hepatitis B vaccine and conditions such as multiple sclerosis and SIDS? Dr. Orenstein. There have been case reports that have suggested that this is a possibility, and that's why we are doing more comprehensive research. The people who are developing these illnesses after vaccination have very, very severe illnesses; there's no question that these are terrible tragedies. The problem is that there are people who develop these same kinds of tragedies, these same kinds of illnesses in the absence of vaccination. And that's why we're engaged, we and others are engaged in substantial research to try and see whether the vaccine increases the risk over what would be expected.

Workshop on neurologic complications of pertussis and pertussis vaccination.

1. Vaccines are not standardized between manufacturers.

2. For a given manufacturer, vaccines are not standard from one batch to the next.

3. Unless the vaccine is properly prepared and refrigerated, its potency and reactivity varies with shelf life.

In fact, the whole question of vaccine detoxification has never been systematically investigated.

Listed in order of increasing severity, observed adverse reactions include irritability, persistent, unusually high pitched crying, somnolence, seizures, a shock-like "hypotensive, hyporesponsive" state, and an encephalopathy. Since the neurologic picture is not specific for pertussis vaccination, its temporal relationship to the vaccination is the critical variable for determining causation. Although the majority of seizures following pertussis vaccination are associated with fever, it was the consensus of the neurologists attending the workshop, that these do not represent febrile convulsions, but are non-benign convulsions.

*************************************
Let's look at vaccine schedules, then and now:

http://www.chop.edu/consumer/jsp/di...ic.jsp?id=75700

Vaccine Schedule
In the early 1950s, there were four vaccines: diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and smallpox. Because three of these vaccines were combined into a single shot (DTP), children received five shots by the time they were 2 years old and not more than one shot at a single visit.

By the mid-1980s, there were seven vaccines: diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles, mumps, rubella and polio. Because six of these vaccines were combined into two shots (DTP and MMR), and one, the polio vaccine, was given by mouth, children still received five shots by the time they were 2 years old and not more than one shot at a single visit.

Since the mid-1980s, many vaccines have been added to the schedule. Hib vaccine was added in the late-1980s. In the 1990s, hepatitis B and varicella vaccines were added and the polio vaccine shot (IPV) replaced the oral polio vaccine (OPV). In the year 2000, the pneumococcal vaccine was added. Now, children could receive as many as 20 shots by 2 years of age and five shots in a single visit!

(Dec of 2002, a 5 in 1 combo shot was licensed, Pediarix. Should a child have a reaction, it will be virtually impossible to determine which of the 5 were the cause.)

And more vaccines are to come. By 2005, it is likely that children will also be recommended to receive a meningococcal vaccine, the influenza vaccine and the hepatitis A vaccine, all given as shots.
