Why weren't those kids immunized?

1.- That's why immunization must be mandatory.
2.- Even if immunized, the virus can mutate and turn into extremely aggressive,like tuberculosis.

Unless it's a strain like the 1918 one.

But there is a difference between not feeding your child and deciding not to give them a medical treatment whose side effects could be as bad or worse than the illness treated or prevented.  Of course, on the other hand Ivan has a point that children who are not vaccinated could pass a mutated strain of the disease to those who have been vaccinated. 

What I'm trying to say here is I have no strong opinion one way or another for a change.  Tongue
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

We're not talking about a virus like the flu, stuff like chicken pox could be fatal to those who do not have immunization.

Surely that must be a maternalist system, then? Wink

Government should not be dictating what medical procedures you can get or should get. I am sure the Amish children are not dying from those childhood diseases. What do you say to the parents of children who actually suffer complications from live vaccines?? Do you claim they committed a crime as bad as neglect etc?In this day of the usurption of rights by governments what is left to decide by parents, maybe what time the child should go to bed. We had a world before vaccinations, we would have one after. Some vaccinations maybe good, some are not. Let informed parents make those decisions, not government, religion or business.

Then what we need here is better information for parents so they can make informed decisions, like what are the "complications from live vaccines" and how do they actually correlate?

Exactly right, lets put the cards on the table not in fine print but an upfront manner with all the true statistics involved.

There are constant outbreaks of preventable diseases in the Amish population.


Also, "informed parents"LOL That's an oxymoron.

Not going to participate, you can do the research as well as I can

"The risk of vaccination must be considered as important—and potentially more serious—than the risk of a childhood disease. Years of experience and thousands of hours of research have lead to conclusions that are not uniformly accepted: the importance of legally ensuring vaccine exemptions in each State and the right to refuse Nationally mandated vaccinations...

Humans are intrinsically healthy and tend to remain so if they are given nutritious, non-GMO foods, fresh air, and clean water. We have been blessed with God-given protective barriers against infectious diseases, including our skin and immune system...

[H]ow did we come to embrace the idea that injecting solutions of chemically-treated, inactivated viruses, parts of bacteria, traces of animal tissue and heavy metals, such as mercury and aluminum, was a reasonable strategy for keeping human beings—babies, children and adults—healthy?...

Parents, and all adults, must retain their right to refuse vaccines. They are not without risk, and those 'rare' complications can result in significant costs, both economic and in terms of human life...

When we give government the power to make medical decisions for us—and force us to vaccinate and medicate our children in the name 'health' and 'policy' and for 'the greater good' we, in essence, accept that the state owns our bodies, and, apparently, our children

If you had a child harmed by a live vaccine you might not find it so funny but rather heartbreaking

I'd like to think that if you had a child saved by vaccination you'd feel likewise.  If you had a child harmed by disease that could have been prevented by a vaccination I guess you'd be feeling rather proud of yourself.

But please, I mean real science, proper medical studies, actual facts and figures, not anti-vaccine propaganda, I can read that anywhere (in fact I can read this particular quote on every anti-vaccine site going).
What?
