Cost Of Vaccination

Mankind is constantly trying to improve the way of life to further advance the society of man. God commanded us to use the resources he has given for the benefit of all people in the Creation Mandate. "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth." (Genesis 1:28 KJV) Even though industry is always improving, it is not always for the moral reasons God intended. Vaccinations have been known to prevent numerous diseases and even save lives, but is one of the most commonly disputed and controversial practices in our society today due to the

detrimental effects it has allegedly caused for some consumers.

It is clear in our society that some vaccinations have helped to improve many lives. Many diseases like Polio have either been or are close to being eradicated. This has resulted in many lives being saved and reduced the amount of loved ones lost to deadly bacteria. Some diseases that used to kill are now very rare or even nonexistent. Also, the cost of multiple treatments and doctor visits can be quite high, so vaccines can greatly reduce the price. According to distributors, side effects, especially lethal ones, are extremely rare.

While apparently not too common, some consumers have told of numerous detrimental factors of being vaccinated. For some users, vaccinations can cause serious, harmful conditions. Approximately 1,400 people file vaccine adverse reactions reports with the CDC per year. 5,000 of these reports caused emergency room visits, and some were lethal. There are also many diseases that have been linked to vaccination. Diabetes, Autism, Thrombocytopenia, Arthritis, Encephalitis, Guillian-Barre syndrome, Hemophilia, Influenza, Hepatitis B, neurological disorders, paralysis, and death are just some of the many diseases that have been related. One report is the story of

Rolanda Lee Mullis. ("ThinkTwice Global Vaccine Institute: Avoid Vaccine Reactions." Web. 26 Feb. 2018.) "My almost 15 yr old son is vaccine-injured with autism. He was advanced with everything, especially his verbal skills. Once he received his vaccines at 15 mths of MMR, DTaP, Polio, etc, he started having febrile seizures. With every seizure, he went backwards 2 mths. He lost all words, except 3, all potty training, etc. It broke my heart!! He is now diagnosed with epilepsy along with his high functioning autism/asperger’s. Granted through years of speech therapy 3 times a week and my mom and I doing it at home 3 times a day, he’s now verbal. There’s still times when he gets overexcited and you can’t understand him. The last shot he had was against my will and a doctor’s orders by his dad...He became extremely violent and defiant to the point of assaulting me and anyone else that was near by him. It got so bad with the bruises at school that I attempted to admit him for inpatient treatment. Please I beg you don’t vaccinate your child! I now have a 2 yr old son, vax-free, that is very healthy."("Dozens of Vaccine Injury and Vaccine Death Stories." Stop Mandatory Vaccination. Web. 25 Apr. 2018.) Another such story is that of Jenni Dill. "Right after my now six year olds shots at 2 yrs, she began having hours long night terrors every night. This lasted two years. She also began showing signs of sensory processing disorder (which is on the autism spectrum), but we didn’t realize that’s what it was until she was 4. She regressed in speech, although the doctor said it was normal, and just encouraged us to put her in speech class when she got into preschool. She also had loss of hearing for about a year – not total loss, but she just stopped being able to hear everything and was constantly saying “what’d you say? I can’t hear you!” Ear nose and throat doctor said her hearing was fine and she just had “selective hearing.” Her hearing returned to normal around age 4, interestingly enough around the time she finally stopped having night terrors every night. She has asthma, that began around age 2, chronic bronchiolitis – she gets this at least three or four times each cold season, and it turns into pneumonia almost every time. She has skin allergies and food aversions, and is six years old and weighs 35lb, can wear size 2T clothes with no problem. Now that I know what I know, I completely and entirely see the link between her two year shots and ALL of these problems. She was a healthy baby, so chubby and so happy. She has melt downs at least a dozen or more times a day when textures, routines, foods, lights, sounds, etc aren’t the way she expects them to be." ("Dozens of Vaccine Injury and Vaccine Death Stories." Stop Mandatory Vaccination. Web. 25 Apr. 2018.) Since not everyone reports side affects or linked illnesses, many cases of vaccine-related illness have not been reported. Official reports of illness are very rarely reported, and some remain unheard.
In June of 2002, congress held a court hearing to decide if the entire practice of vaccinations has been tainted or polluted and whether or not the public can trust the distributors and entire company who sells the drug. Rota Shield, one of the vaccines that caused the hearing to be held, was linked to numerous cases of a life-threatening intestinal blockage and the death of many infants. Rota Shield was withdrawn from the market soon after. Congress found that 60% of FDA Advisory Committee members that voted this drug into distribution had financial relations to the drug company that released Rota Shield, and they would benefit financially from the drug. Even after the reveal of this obviously immoral flaw, The FDA, CDC, and U.S. department of Health and Human resources claimed that "it's perfectly acceptable for committee members with obvious conflicts of interest to make healthcare recommendations for every child in this country". ("ThinkTwice Global Vaccine Institute: Avoid Vaccine Reactions." Web. 26 Feb. 2018.)
How well and consistently do vaccinations work? In a 2003 outbreak of Pertussis four out of every five infected persons were vaccinated against the disease. An infected person may not know he is carrying the disease. He may have no symptoms at all. Diseases are still very commonly spread to and by vaccinated persons. There is no guarantee one will not contract the disease. Vaccines, at their best, can only provide temporary immunity. Even though one is vaccinated, it does not mean he is not at risk. ("ThinkTwice Global Vaccine Institute: Avoid Vaccine Reactions." Web. 26. Feb. 2018.) I can personally account for one instance where multiple vaccinated people contracted the Mumps from other vaccinated persons. The Mumps is a near-eradicated disease in the United States!
The practice and distribution of vaccines is not always a moral profession.

At times, the health and well being of humans is sadly not the motive to sell a vaccine. I believe companies are immorally pushing the market and sales of their medicine despite the known effects. Companies are pushing to sell their drugs to people groups that it would not benefit and that do not need them. Before the Chicken Pox vaccine, parents were told to expose their children to the relatively harmless disease while they are young because if it was contracted later in life, the infected person could face serious complications that could be detrimental to their life. After the vaccine was introduced, parents were told that the disease was extremely dangerous for children and they should be vaccinated as soon as possible. There is clearly a contradiction. The distributors obviously are not concerned about the health of the child, but instead they are attempting to fatten their wallets. There has been many reports of infant deaths linked to vaccines. If the baby's immune system is not strong enough to learn how to fight against the bacteria being injected in its body, it's immune system can shut down causing the child to be harmed. Many people have filed reports over complications and illnesses they have received after using a certain vaccine. Many of these reports have been denied by the company distributing the drug. Industries should be inclined to hear stories and improve instead of

denying accusations.
Why are doctors so adamant about being vaccinated? Most doctors push to regularly get vaccines on a schedule. A recent pole was taken by a man who was curious of this very thing. He interviewed three physicians from three different states. Each of the doctors sign a HMO plan based on chart reviews and patient surveys each year. If their office scores high enough on the reviews, they receive a several thousand dollar bonus. One of the requirements for a patient's chart to pass the test is that the patient must be fully vaccinated. In some areas, the patient must be vaccinated on a regular schedule to count towards the physician's goal. The incentives may cause a doctor to make a selfish decision based on the reward he may receive. This surely is not true of all physicians if any. It is just one factor to consider when deciding if vaccinating is the best option. ("Financial Incentive for Doctors to Vaccinate Patients." Ask Dr Sears. Web. 07 May 2018.)
Whether or not one should be vaccinated should be a personal choice. Some schools require that each student be vaccinated against certain diseases to attend. Even if a student is vaccinated they can still be sick. They can also still spread the disease throughout the school. Vaccinations should not be required in any educational facility.
I believe that there are many good and bad factors to consider when deciding if vaccinations are needed in someone's own personal life. One must decide if the benefits out way the possible side effects. I believe that the possibility of a child becoming handicapped or worse for their entire life just simply does not out way the possibility of temporary immunity. "Every year in the United States between 3,000 and 4,500 severe vaccine reactions are reported to the centers for Disease Control. Not mild reactions. Severe reactions that land somebody in the hospital, the intensive care unit or cause a permanent disability or death." ("What CDC Statistics Say about Vaccine-related Illnesses, Injuries and Death." @politifact. Web. 25 Apr. 2018) It is a difficult decision for many parents to make, and some are forever regretful for their decision. There is obviously some correlation between the overwhelming amount of diseases related to vaccines. No one should vaccinate without a clear knowledge of what is going into their body. We must always remember that when the doctors advise to vaccinate, some may also be thinking of the money it will cost the buyer. Each individual should do research and be familiar with a vaccination before they subject their body to it.
