Vaccines are required for school. I wish they were required regardless.

Parents seem to prefer death over autism...
Choosing not to have their child vaccinated over something that is unproven is bascially saying "If my child dosen't look at me in the eye, hug me, or likes flap their arms, then I don't want that child'.

what a sad world we live in.

Thank you for finding words for my feelings on the topic. I couldn't have said it better myself.

In my point of view kids with autism are supieor to normal kids because you dont have to spend money on fasions or popular toy on them and they wont start wars or fights for stupid normal people reasons my little bro has lower functioning autism but he is highest when it comes to low functioning becasue he is really smart because I think he should rule the world.

I'd much rather have had the measles than AS. I don't see why children getting the measles is such a big deal, considering all the risks of the vaccine and the side effects of the toxins they use to create vaccines. Serious complications in children with measles are rare if the children are healthy to begin with.

OR, US measles outbreak may be linked to measles virus.

:roll:

See that word 'may'? Just more hype to try and force medication on people who don't want it, nor need it. There is no proof, and given than the majority of these outbreaks these days are amongst vaccinated populations, I still don't see the point.

No way is anyone forcing there poisons on me, thank you.
