My brother and I were raised without shots, but I was given the smallpox vaccination for
entry into kindergarten -- I can still remember my swollen arm. My vaccination was given on
the underside of my arm so I'd not have a scar . . . but boy, was that a painful area for weeks!
Do your research, then try to have a frank discussion with your practioner. By the way,
do you know about "hot lots"? See http://www.909shot.com/Issues/hotlots.htm.
Also, see below, US Dept of Health and Human Services section. It is up to you to learn about
vaccines. Print out info that is important to you and take it to your doctor. -- barb

  doctors are human. Nearly all have been forced to "take a side" in the debate, and have
  consequently had to become proselytes for vaccination. They have cajoled, advised
  and persuaded vacillating parents about the benefits of immunisation. There has been
  a tendency to play down the likelihood of common adverse reactions and not provide

  "The toll of the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill is a sadly familiar one: 250,000 dead
  birds, 2,800 sea otters, 300 harbor seals – all victims of the oil tanker that ran
  over a reef late one April night and drained 11 million gallons of oil into Prince
  William Sound. But most people are unaware that the tragedy did not only affect
  wildlife: many of the thousands of workers who helped clean up the spill have
  suffered serious health problems ever since. These are the workers that stood in the
  brown foam 18 hours a day, slept with oil matted in their hair, breathed in the thick
  hydrocarbon haze, and ate food speckled with oil. ..."

    "..."Stubblefield hasn't worked since. He gasps when he breathes, gets

    'He'll never breathe right again. Never,' said his former wife,

    coughing so he gasps for air.' ... "
    PERFUME caught my eye. Stubblefield and others with the Valdez clean-up, how many more
    with the Pentagon and World Trade Center horrific events? Remember, our government gave
    false air assurances and the mayor of New York, rushed people back into that area. And

• THE SOLVENT CONNECTION
  "NIOSH (USA) stated in 1987 in their Current Intelligence Bulletin that aldehydes are solvents: „Common organic solvents are classified as aliphatic hydrocarbons, cyclic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, ketones, amines, alcohols, aldehydes, and ethers¾. "In correspondence with New Zealand¼s Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) Professor Gorman, Health Science Centre, University of Auckland, accepts that glutaraldehyde is a solvent under Axelson and Hogstedt¼s definition. Dr Monigatti (ACC Workwise, NZ) states: „We accept glutaraldehyde has solvent-like properties. If chronic solvent exposure can cause these sorts of things then we accept that glutaraldehyde can cause [solvent toxicity] as well....(Safeguard Update, No 96, 20 April, 1998). "NIOSH (1987) states: 'Epidemiologic studies of various groups of
  solvent-exposed workers have demonstrated statistically significant
  chronic changes in peripheral nerve function (sensory and motor nerve
  conduction velocities and electromyographicabnormalities) that persisted
  for months to years following cessation of exposure. Epidemiologic studies
  have also shown statistically significant increases in neurobehavioural effects
  in workers chronically exposed to organic solvents. These effects include
  disorders characterised by reversible subjective symptoms (fatigability,
  irritability, and memory impairment), sustained changes in personality or
  mind (emotional instability and diminished impulse control and motivation),
  and impaired intellectual function (decreased concentration ability, memory,
  and learning ability). Among organic solvent abusers, the most severe disorders
  reported are characterised by irreversible deterioration in intellect and memory...
  accompanied by structural CNS damage.' ..."

Vanillin - A BENZENE derivitive

• Like Sugar for Poison: Glucose as a Substitute for Benzene
  Environmental Health Perspectives Volume 103, Number 6, June 1995
  "... Benzene helps make jeans blue--it's the feedstock for indigo dye--and ice cream vanilla
  flavored--it's the source of vanillin. It's also the starting point for a number
  important industrial chemicals including hydroquinone, used in film developing, phenol,
  used to make solvents, and adipic acid, which is used to make nylon. Benzene is also
  a potent carcinogen. [emphasis added]
  http://ehpnet1.niehs.nih.gov/docs/1995/103-6/innovations.html
  And what EHP doesn't tell you in this article: Benzene is also an important chemical in the
  manufacture of synthetic fragrances. And the industry claimes it doesn't use any carcinogens!

  "Food producers increasingly rely on synthetic flavors
  and food dyes, some of which are proven toxins. For
  example: "Blue number two," used in beverages, candy
  and pet food causes brain tumors in male mice.
  "Red number three," used in baked goods, candy, and
  maraschino cherries, has caused thyroid tumors in rats.
  While petroleum-based artificial flavorings are generally
  safe, their manufacture often leads to potential
  exposures. For example, the production of Vanillin -
  artificial vanilla flavor - requires benzene."

    • Linus Pauling - "ABC duped? / Junk Science"
      "... Instead of listing Pauling as a perpetrator of junk science, he should have
      been compared with Galileo, a truly great scientist who was crucified for
      taking a position that challenges the status quo. By classifying the vitamin
      C claims with other junk science, ABC news has, perhaps unwittingly,
      misinformed a great many people. ..."
