Vaccine Info

This website has some articles that are pretty deep, because Doctors wrote them:

http://www.whale.to/vaccines/autoimmune1.htm

It gives some very interesting info on the effectiveness of vaccines.

There was one study where they tested adults T-cell levels before and after receiving a standard Tetanus shot.
T-Cells are the little pac-man cells that eat up the sick ones. I think it's our bodies first defense. The way they diagnose whether a person has AIDS or not is by how many T-cells they have.
Anyway, when they tested the T-cell level of adults after receiving a shot, it showed that their T-cell level temporarily went down to a level comparable to AIDS patients.
If that happens to the immune system of a healthy adult, just imagine what happens to infants with undeveloped immunity who routinely get 21 shots before they're 6 months old!

In general, doctors have very little knowledge on immunology. This is one of the basic sciences they are require to learn the first year. Generally med students dislike these basic courses because they don't have much use in the practice of medicine.

All I am doing here is parroting what I read in the articles on the above website. So see for yourself if you would like to know the source. Let me know what you learn!
