A commentary from, well, me.


 

 
Newer insecticides include insect growth regulators and natural predators such as beetle-eating wasps or insect-killing bacteria. While all insecticides are toxic, most fatal poisonings occur only when quantities are accidentally or intentionally ingested or inhaled.

 

It seems important to consider that although exposure to the pesticide is only fatal at high doses; exposure on any level could cause some effect to the human body. We are, after all, a most complicated organism. In my opinion any change is a negative effect. What do you think? E-mail me with your comments.



On the continueing search for knowledge on the vaccine issue, I have begun to read "A Shot in the Dark" by Harris L Coulter and Barbara Loe Fisher.  I am amazed at the known reactions to the pertussis vaccine which seem not to concern the majority of pediatricians.  I have to wonder if anyone notices that there are more adverse reactions to vaccines every year than occurances of the disease that we are trying to protect against.  These vaccines are not a 100% protection against diseases.  There are documented cases of outbreaks in 100% vaccination areas.  Why are we continueing to poison our children with something that hasn't even had long term effects tested in a controlled setting?  I want to share a quote from the book that makes an important point.
 
"The following serious reactions to pertussis vaccine are documented in more than fifty years of scientific literature and many are mentioned in guidelinesproduced for doctors by The American Medical Association (AMA), the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and vaccine manufacturers; high fever (over 105 deg. F); convulsions ( with or without a fever); unusual high-pitched screaming; persistent crying for three or more hours during which the child cannot be comforted; excessive somnolence (a deep sleep from which the child can be awakened only with great difficulty); collapse ( a sudden loss of consciousness); encephalopathy ( brain damage); and death."


With these known reactions to this vaccine, what can possibly motivate us to continue the mass injections of it into our innocent infants?
