(811 posts)The Copenhagen Study, It was terribly flawed, almost from the start. Too many parameters had been changed while the study was on going. So anything based on this study statistically, is flawed as well. while I'm Not an anti Vaccine person, I don't like that the US has the Highest Number of Vaccines recommended to children under 1 Y/O (26). While Japan, Denmark, Sweden, Etc... Recommend only 12 for the same age group, preferring to stretch out the time of the vaccinations. Are their any reported elevated rates of illness because of this longer vaccination schedule? I don't know, have their been any studies? I have not read or seen any. So Is stretching the time of vaccinations out, of some benefit to the seemingly over taxed Immune system of an Infant. I don't know! has their been a study about this? I've never heard of one. Without this kind of information we are all just shooting from the hip. What I do know is the US standing as compared to the rest of the worlds infant mortality rate is 47th. Hardly Stellar and Vaccine schedules might be a factor. Again I don't know because their have been no studies on this ether.
The blanket statement to "vaccinate everyone" is dead wrong. Their are children who are so sensitive to the egg used to produce the vaccines they can die. The DPT shots were known to cause surface bleeding on the brain of some children. Parents went to jail because of this. are their any Identifying markers to spot this kind of sensitivity before this can happen again? I Don't know, Why? no study. Alternatives Must be forthcoming. Any exceptions to vaccinations need to be studied and well thought out. This is a Conundrum I don't have any answers for, Just lots and lots of questions.
