I am looking for the vax schedules for all these years. I wanted to show it to all those that think I am crazy when I say they have added a ton more vaxes over the years and maybe prove my point that vaxes are useless (IMO). Thanks in advance to anyone.

That's not a relevant point to argue IMO because you can't schedule a vax that doesn't exist yet. If you're trying to convince a mainstreamer you're not going to do it by saying that vaxes that didn't exist prior to '51 and '79 are worthless because they weren't distributed then. Does that make sense or am I talking in circles?

Actually, there are some reljevant points that come from that info mainly having to do with shooting holes in the herd immunity theory, as most of the adult population is NOT current on their vaxes according to today's standards.

...and the fact that many of the diseases we now vax for weren't considered major health threats until the vaccines were introduced.
:

When my mom first heard I wouldn't be vaxing the kids, she was concerned. Then, I asked her what vaxs she had had. She has had only smallpox. She understood then.

In 1979 and 1981, a child may have received these vaccines:

DTP
MMR
Oral Polio

In 1951, a child may have received:

DTP

ETA: According to the CDC, the compliance rates for DTP and MMR between 1979 and 1981 were about 65 percent.

Thanks to all..I am not really trying to convince anyone why I don't vax, I just figured it may make them think a little more when they see how little they had as children and how little even I had as compared to now and we all lived thru it.
