RE: Should Parents Be Forced To Vaccinate Their Children?
If you are going to worry about a baby/toddler being exposed, then don't just worry about unvaccinated children potentially spread it. ALL vaccinations wear off within 3-10 years.
And hardly any of the adults have been revaccinated with the MMR,
so every single adult who never had an actual case of measles themselves,
could catch measles and spread it just as easily as a child could.
So, if you want to force children to get vaccinated or stay quarantined,
then you would have to do the same for all adults that haven't gotten all their boosters.
And I'll tell you this, the adults will just say NO to forced vaccinations.
Therefore, we will never have this desired "Community Immunity."
I am 50 years old and have had the actual measles, so I'm good. I can never get it again as I have life-long immunity.
I had the good fortune of being able to pass that natural immunity to my 3 babies through the placenta for the first year of life, and even past the age of 2 through my breast milk.
The unfortunate side-affect of all the young mothers being vaccinated now for MMR, is that they do not have strong enough immunity to pass along to their infants/toddlers. So now, if there is a measles epidemic, young babies are at risk, and yes, young babies are the most vulnerable.
In the past, children would not catch measles until they were old enough to be at low-risk.
The MMR vaccination program has just messed up the way that nature best protected the most vulnerable among us, which is mothers passing along immunity to their babies. When the MMR vaccinated generation become senior citizens, we will start to see measles outbreaks amongst the elderly! ... another vulnerable population that would have never contracted measles in the past.
When the MMR program started, they told us it was "One Shot for Life."
Then it became 3 shots for children over their childhood.
They just haven't wanted to break it to the adult population yet that they are not protected unless they keep going in for more and more shots.
AND each shot brings a risk with it.
It might be worth it to take the risk one time, if one time was all that was needed.
But taking those risks over and over and over again through your life, for not just the MMR but any other vaccine that you have had ... well, makes the choice much more likely to just be a NO to any vaccine in the first place.
Hey, @canadian-coconut.
I appreciate the life experience and the input. It's definitely a hot button topic where all sides have strong feelings about how things should go, and what should or should not be done.
I agree with you—there's no way adults would go for forced boosters and less isolation or quarantine—nor should they. The idea of internment camps came to mind as I was writing that first reply, but that's rather strong and has all different kinds of connotations. The idea is forced interment against your will due to potential (and difficult if not impossible to prove) circumstances, rather than anything you did.
Personally, the more government seems to get involved, the less it seems to solve a problem without creating many more. So, mandates for me are hard to take. At the same time, someone, somehow, should look out for the most vulnerable among us, be it charities, individuals, or something else that won't try to control or act fraudulently.
I do worry about my grandchildren and their well being (just as I'm sure the majority of grandparents do), and the more we go along in this information age, the less we seem to actually know, unless we've gone left when we were told to go right and came out unscathed.
i do believe the body's natural immune system is incredible, and, that in at least some ways we've been causing more problems through vaccines (for me, the main one is the flu), because we don't build up a natural immunity to these common bugs, which then have a nasty way of mutating into a more virulent strain.
So, it comes down to the freedom to choose while taking personal responsibility and accountability, thus accepting the consequences of one's actions. Too many have been let off the hook as far as the latter part of that goes, and it just continues tangle up and complicate things.
No wonder fucking stupid cunt @canadian-coconut had her kids taken away
Sorry to disappoint you, but CPS has never bothered my family.
