Volunteers for Vax sudies...?

[Guest guest]

I imagine the Subject line I just wrote would make you all think there was at

last a study to expose the truth ;o) I wish...

However, I WAS wondering about the whole idea of it because I have read that is

is somehow ethically immoral to 'withhold vaccines from children that might save

their lives', even if they have never been safely tested. With the many growing

thousands of parents forgoing vaccinations altogether surely there is a growing

ideal 'control group' available - & no doubt most willing to volunteer to be a

control group for a mass study. What would it take to study THEM as a yardstick

for what is going on with all the other children who are getting vaxed? They

could follow kids in the same communities & schools to see any differences in

health.

Who'd volunteer? Can we start a volunteer base for the medical community to draw

upon? I don't see we have to wait for the clinical profession to think of doing

it - we could just offer proactively?

Any thoughts? I may be an idealist, but you gotta think like this to have hope!

The National Vaccine Information Center is in the planning stages for the first

large study to compare vaccinated vs. unvaccinated kids.

It would not be difficult to find unvaccinated kids. I don't think we need to

start a database. If the desire and money is there to find unvaccinated kids,

it will be done. But those in power to approve and fund studies have decided

that this is not a study they want to have done. Believe me, they know it's

never been done, and they know it can be done. But they don't want it done. And

it has nothing to do with " ethics " or " withholding care " but that is what they

would like us to believe. I personally find it hard to believe that people fall

for that. Obviously there are plenty of families who have chosen on their own to

not vaccinate their kids.

Government and corporations refuse to fund such a study. So a charitable

organization (NVIC) is stepping up to the plate.
