people's lives here. I am a paediatrician and I believe no one has dealt with children, their vaccinations and these rumors more than me on this forum. ( I think)

There are side effects and there are adverse reactions. There is no justification of you deducing false statements from that as you don't understand human physiology and biochemistry.

There is perfectly justifiable reason for Mercury to be in the vaccines. It was acknowledged that it should be used in the smallest quantity.

A very simplistic example for you.

Consider 40 Children used to die out of 100 in a community with Whooping cough, polio, measles and encephalitis. now after introduction of vaccines the number has come down to just 5 or 7 children dying with these diseases plus 4 children who have Autism ( Even if for the sake of argument we accept that it was developed by vaccinations). The over all benefit to the community is saving of 75% of the children that used to either die or suffer debilitating paralysis.

Every day we face parent who read such forums and decide not to vaccinate their children. It was sad to see that last year there were five cases of polio reported in UK, all the children who were not vaccinated by choice of their parents.

You have a choice for your children but unless you are qualified to speak please don't spread your half cooked Internet research.
