Have you had your vaccinations updated?

February 16, 2012

Each person has their own beliefs and should do what they think is right. For me, I do not believe I should pump poisons into my body trying to prevent any sickness or disease that I may come in contact with. One thing for sure, injecting yourself with poisons will have an effect on your health. The injection actually gives some people the disease that they are trying to prevent. Here's a story about vaccinations that had a big effect on my life and even bigger on the lives on my father and brother. In the late 1970's there was a big scare in the news media about Swine Flu was coming to America and would kill millions of people if we didn't get vaccinated against it. Well, I believed it was a lie made up by doctors and drug companies to get richer than they already were, so I refused to get the vaccine. My father and brother believed the lies that were in the news everyday and were injected with the poison. They were living together in one city and I lived about 1 1/2 hours drive away. One day I called to let them know I was coming to visit and my father said do not come here you may get sick too. Since getting the shot they had been in bed very sick for 2 weeks. My father had been healthy and strong. He loved to go deer hurting and walk through the mountains, but after he was finally well enough to go back to work he was still very weak. He no longer had the strength or energy to go hunting. He never fully recovered from getting that shot and his health kept getting worse until he died. My brother was still young, only 2 years older than me, he regained his strength but continued to have health problems and died a few years ago. I don't allow anyone to inject poison into me and I'm still health and strong. Vaccines prevent sickness and disease sometimes but they also cause them in healthy people. Filipinos get vaccines when going to school because they are required but most adults do not continue to get them. This along should tell you something, is the benefit greater than the risk of get them? And, if death awaits anyone who isn't regularly vaccinated then why is the population growing at such an astonishing rate. Not very many dying from preventable diseases is my guess. Also, no vaccine will prevent LBM, loose bowel movement, caused by drinking or eating contaminated food, which is probably the most common sickness in the Philippines.

Hear, hear, I absolutely agree. Every so often we get these scare stories, swine fever, asian bird flue etc etc the drug companies sell millions or billions of dollars worth of "vaccines" to governments, those "vaccines" have a shelf life and end up being unused and disposed of (at more expense). So much of modern "medicine" is controlled by the big pharma companies as a money making excercise. Read up on how the Rockefeller family started their influence on medicine in the early 1900s!

I MAY indeed be around sick locals from time to time, bad food / water and who knows what else. Probable spit, vomit and blood with training. ( More than likely my own fluids but hopefully not much :hystery: )

Though I am " Natural /organic " or holistic med patient ( From a professionally paid health practitioner ) I am getting these shots ! I will be around these types of infectious pathogens sooner or later. I can not find my bloody shot records so at least boosters.

I'll E mail a friend who is an ER Doc as well as Tac-Med leader for a few SWAT teams before I do the final deed.
