Get Your Damn Vaccines!

Though I agree that vaccinations should be given/gotten, when they say there is NO CORRELATION between MMR and Autism or anything else for that matter, it simply means there is not a "statistical relevance". Yet, I know 2 families personally that have had a perfectly healthy child's life destroyed and their family's life as well immediately following MMR. In one case, the child developed an extremely rare form of autoimmune condition of the central nervous system. It is hopeful that he can lead a reasonably normal life but periodically has to go have a rare form of low dose chemotherapy which has associated risks up to and including death. The other family, the child developed an extremely high fever, went into seizure, and has permanent [non autism] brain damage. This child will never have any semblance of normalcy and neither will his family. BOTH infants were developing completely normally prior to MMR.
Though I openly acknowledge that I am not a doctor, did not stay at Holiday Inn Express last night, and I am probably an outlier that I know [2] families, I do have several friends/acquaintances that each know of [1] each, plus I am 60 so I acknowledge I have been around a while but these things DO happen. They are simply not statistically relevant given the millions of vaccinations given. When it happens to you though, relevance takes on a whole new meaning. Just food for thought. Could they break up MMR into 3 vaccinations to reduce risks? Could studies be funded on a statistically relevant sample of normal developing infants that had sudden autism or otherwise onset post MMR to see if there is some genetic predisposition that could be tested for? I am certain there are other arguments one way or the other.

Air in circulation isn't a huge issue, air in the pump (heart) is more of a problem.
With all this talk about the dangers of air you guys are making me scared to even breath
I was scared sh!tless when they were doing some test on me where they actually put air in your blood so they can see the bubbles in your heart. I had always heard it was a huge no-no, but the tech said it was no big deal.

Correct. The circulatory system only uses the fluid as a medium for gas exchange. There aren't actually any dead ends in there, just really small vessels where arteries gas off and return the deoxygenated blood to the heart. So the extra air just passes through these highly permeable membranes.
We are dealing with our daughter's hearing loss the same way - which has no known cause. For my wife she is extremely cautious and outspoken about the risks - especially with her sisters getting ready to pop out babies this year. Me? sh*t happens and the probability of it occurring in my new niece and nephew are improbable based on the stats. We just had an awesome fight about this fear mongering BS. LOL.
Bias exists.
It is terrible when this happens to your child, any of these conditions. But these children who got these needles may have also died from one of the diseases that the immunizations protect them from. Some people just aren't strong. My uncle survived Polio, Rheumatic fever and ended up with Parkinson's disease and still made it till 84. Dad told me he almost died twice as a kid. No vaccinations readily available then. The socialist revolution was just starting when they were kids. Dad lived to 82 despite 3 bouts with cancer from asbestos exposure. His Dad lived till 95, a pipe smoker and my aunt will be 101 soon. Almost all my Aunt's have lived till over 90 on that side of the family. Unfortunately, no matter how unfair, some of us will not live long lives, some very short. I take after Mom's side in many ways so I will be very lucky to live much past 80. These nut bags endanger all of society because of a small risk. You tell me, is it worth it?
