Guest guest Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Here is what Barbara Loe Fisher has to say about this new vaccine: " The FDA should have required far larger studies, " said Barbara Loe Fisher, the co-founder and president of the National Vaccine Information Center. " You are combining five live viruses into one vaccine, which has never been done before. " Fisher noted that there are still unanswered questions about some of these vaccines and the likelihood of having long-term adverse effects on children. " Particularly in regard to continuing reports of regression after MMR vaccine; the hypothesis that exposing children to three live viruses at once is causing some genetically susceptible children to regress and have a persistent measles infection leading to autism and intestinal bowel disorders, " she said. As far as Proquad is concerned, Fisher said it hasn't been truly tested, because it has only been tested against other vaccines and not against a placebo. " With a new vaccine like this, you should be comparing it against placebo to find out the true adverse reaction rate. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
