[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 302071, member: 1233"] I remember the oral polio vaccine. It had a live but supposedly weakened virus. If we had given it to Wiz neither my mom nor I could even hug him for six weeks. Mom and Dad lived 8 tenths of a mile down the road and drove past our house on the way to and from work every day. Mom stopped in after work at least 5 days a week. No way was I going to do the live vaccine. Mom even offered to pay for the shot. The doctor we saw couldn't even order the vaccine. Only the health dept could. It took weeks and a TON of paperwork, including some from my doctor and my mom's doctor, to get the shots approved. Luckily the state paid for it. Only three people in the state got the dead virus shot that year. We had several cases of polio in older people and moms with compromised immune systems. Most did a lot of damage because no one had ever really seen polio firsthand but a couple of the older docs. So I ask a LOT of questions about the vaccines. I have never gotten a good answer as to why thimerosol and other possibly dangerous compounds are in the vaccines, but we get them anyway. [/QUOTE]
