VACCINATION POLICY FLAWS
by Maureen Drummond

Vaccinations are the development of the allopathic approach to medicine. Mandated vaccines violate a person's freedom of choice in healthcare, forcing the population to adhere to one approach to medicine.

Vaccinations are a medical procedure, which alter the immune system in an undetermined way for an undetermined amount of time. No long-term studies have been conducted to determine various degrees of health in vaccinated populations vs. unvaccinated populations, making claims of vaccine safety and effectiveness invalid.

Policy makers who set forth vaccine mandates are not independent people making evaluations with public safety in mind. Vaccine policies are dictated by a select group of appointed individuals, many with conflicts of interest, and are not subjects to the democratic process or legislative oversight.

"Scientific data" cannot be held to public scrutiny for informed choice when the data are "unpublished."

The public is misguided with sensationalist propaganda about various disease hazards without regard to vaccine hazards. This results in a distorted risk/benefit ratio on which people are expected to base their decisions.

The incidence of chronic, childhood autoimmune diseases such as asthma, autism, juvenile-onset diabetes, etc, continues to rise along with the quantity of vaccines our children receive. How much longer will we allow the medical establishment to deny causal relationships between vaccines and chronic, childhood diseases? When will we demand studies of vaccinated populations vs. unvaccinated populations?

Although physicians/pediatricians everywhere will agree that there is very little scientific knowledge of the infant immune system, the list of vaccines targeted for our children is quite extensive and continuously expanded. What criteria are used to determine that the infant immune system will NOT sustain any long-term injury or alteration resulting from excessive vaccination?

Children have a right to good health and can not, morally and ethically, be used as experimental subjects by vaccine manufacturers. Their immune systems need to be allowed to develop naturally with the aid of proper nutrition, a healthy environment and a knowledge of hygienic disease prevention.

Any information, which opposes the traditional mentality of vaccines, is discarded and criticized. It is more scientifically responsible to accept and explore other options in the course of disease prevention, especially those which do not invade or alter a person's immune system.

The 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act absolved from accountability vaccine manufacturers, doctors, nurses, pharmacists who inject vaccines for injuries following vaccination.
