Someone explain to why a baby needs to have a vaccine for a STD/needle share disease before they are 12 hours old?
quote:
All babies should get the first shot of hepatitis B vaccine before they leave the hospital. This shot acts as a safety net, reducing the risk of getting the disease from moms or family members who may not know they are infected with hepatitis B.
quote:
How does hepatitis B spread?
Hepatitis B virus spreads through blood or other body fluids that contain small amounts of blood from an infected person. People can spread the virus even when they have no symptoms.
Babies and children can get hepatitis B in the following ways:
At birth from their infected mother
Being bitten by an infected person
By touching open cuts or sores of an infected person
Through sharing toothbrushes or other personal items used by an infected person
From food that was chewed (for a baby) by an infected person
The virus can live on objects for 7 days or more. Even if you don’t see any blood, there could be virus on an object.

Do you know why children are required to have 2 doses of MMR?
quote:
Why is a second dose of MMR necessary?Between 2% and 5% of people do not develop measles immunity after the first dose of vaccine. This occurs for a variety of reasons. The second dose is to provide another chance to develop measles immunity for people who did not respond to the first dose.

A chickenpox vaccine, really?
quote:
Prior to the availability of varicella vaccine there were approximately 4 million cases of varicella a year in the U.S. Though usually a mild disease in healthy children, an estimated 150,000 to 200,000 people developed complications, about 11,000 people required hospitalization and 100 people died each year from varicella. Varicella tends to be more severe in adolescents and adults than in young children. The most common complications from varicella include bacterial superinfection of skin lesions, pneumonia, central nervous system involvement, and thrombocytopenia.

Because they don't trust doctors to properly store the vaccine.

You forgot to quote "usually"
If the 2 kids you know give you pause about vaccines, why don't the hundreds of thousands with chicken pox complications give you pause about the disease?

Because chicken pox, assuming the child is healthy and has access to medical care, is not a serious disease.

The same medical care that you distrust when they tell you to get a vaccine?

quote:it was listed as a possible reason for primary vaccine failure, yes, but they truly don't know why it fails in some. There are other possible reasons as well. FACT is, less than 1% get infected when given two doses vs the 3-5% when given only one.
Because they don't trust doctors to properly store the vaccine.

So you are ok with all of this so long as a hand full of rare cases like the two children you know of do have complications. Also in the two cases you mentioned was it proven that it was the vaccine alone or was there already something wrong with the child that wasn't known and the vaccine exacerbated it?

I love al of the conspiracy stuff but I believe in vaccines so I'm not sure that your statement is accurate
Posted on 2/15/15 at 9:19 am to RandySavage
The wierd fact you posted is that the Measles vaccine works, the disease has stopped spreading and is completely neutralized and on average 10 children out of the between 3 and 4 million born each year have died?
That's .0000025% chance that something may go wrong and some of that was I'm sure to to genetics or something else contributing.

No, both are directly attributed to vaccines. Again, nothing to do with autism or "developmental issues". In one case they caused immediate seizures which have persisted on and off with the child for a few years now. The child otherwise is normal and healthy apart from the seizures.
The other is much more tragic. The vaccine caused a severe reaction that has left the child in essentially a vegetative state. She will never be able to walk, talk, communicate etc...
I fully understand something like that happening is extremely rare but the fact it can happen is enough to give pause.

Figures you'd idolize something as fake as wrestling. Splains pretty much everything need to know about you and your "opinions"...
