vaccinations

[Guest guest]

Could someone repost the info on why vaccinations should or should not

be given? I'm looking for research type literature, based on

studies/fact, not the " hype " type of stuff about how all vaccinations

are terrible...

We have had a mixed result with vaccinations, some " no reactions " , some

bad reactions. Because my daughter vomitted after the MMR, I've never

done that again. That was the only one we had a problem with, until

the flu shot, which really coincided with a really bad neuro response

about 1 hour later (she began large seizures, still not cleared up).
