I strongly recommend everyone to read it and juge it afterwords. It answered a lot of questions i had. Even if you want to vaccinate your kids, still read it so when and if your kids get sick you'll know what to do, how to care for them.

This is the best book on vaccination I have read because it not only explains what is wrong with vaccination, it also helped me lose my fear of the diseases that my children could catch by giving me information about each disease. The advice is not flighty, it is backed up with evidence from scientific studies. People who do vaccinate also need this advice because their children can get the diseases. I found the historical section amazing. We have been taught to believe untrue myths, and every parent needs to know the true historical facts, especially about Pasteur and Jenner. I liked the amusing anecdotes about the way believers in vaccination behave, and after reading it I am better able to cope with the anger that my decision not to vaccinate provokes.

it is nice to know that there are parents willing to research vaccinations as there has been an increase in childhood diseases since the ridiculous amount of vaccinations have been mandated. Well, Adrianna, do you have children? Did you know the chicken pox vaccine was created so mothers would not miss work, not because it is a deadly disease? When was the last time you saw a case of polio? It is everyones own choice to vaccinate and even if you do vaccinate, it does not guarantee you will not contract the disease. Keep your criticisms to yourselves...the drug companies also have something to gain!

For those of you that are contemplating buying this book - please do! Even if you are unsure about whether or not you want to vaccinate your children, give this book a chance. Read it with an open mind - you might discover the research behind not giving vaccinations extremely strong and might even end up becoming convinced of it.

What kind of parent, other than a shallow, irresponsible one would rather have a child contract a crippling, fatal illness than have that child be autistic? Such parents obviously know very little about what autism and autistic people are really like. ADHD? Yes, MUCH rather have a child die of a crippling, fatal disease than have them be a little jittery. By the way, I am not talking so much about the specific book, but the so-called risks of vaccinations in general that such books raise alarm about. And some vaccines are dangerous for some children, like those with certain rare metabolic disorders. But otherwise? Suck it up and value your child for who that child is, even if it means taking on extra challenges, even if it means that your child is not 'normal.' Even medical illnesses, like diabetes, that are supposedly more common in the vaccinated, are usually treatable and most such people live relatively long and healthy lives with some modifications and support. Again, I am afraid I'd rather have that happen than have my child die in a biohazard unit for NO reason whatsoever. Only to be visited by doctors in Haz-mat suits, and to be incinerated after death, without being able to touch her. Sound dramatic? Yeah, it is, but a very real possibility if droves of parents decide not to vaccinate.

This book will harm your children. Vaccines are effective and safe. There are risks to everything we do, however. The last thing we need is the masses not vaccinating... unless you want rampant disease, H influenza meningitis, polio, measles, and the like. You want medieval medicine. You'll get medieval results.
