Hey Amber, great arguments you put together as usual
The only fault I could point out in your logic is that you're basing all your selection reasoning on the assumption that vaccines ACTUALLY WORK.
There are so many cases of disease outbreaks in FULLY VACCINATED populations (humans and animals). I've lost count of how many published articles I've come across detailing such outbreaks in the past few months.
Maybe I should start a post listing all the scientific articles I've gathered on the subject... it would be quite an undertaking though
Some vaccines certainly do work (I think the various rabies vaccines have very convincing studies backing their effectiveness), but many of them just don't.
Did you ever get around to watching the documentary posted by Cindy a while back? (I think it was called Vaccinations: the hidden truth, or something like that).
Interesting how vaccines supposedly wiped out many of the childhood disease epidemics when the diseases had practically disappeared by the time vaccines were introduced.
What's also interesting is that there are still large scale outbreaks of polio in developing countries within HEAVILY VACCINATED populations. One study I was looking at a couple of months ago looked at an outbreak where the sick children had received
4-5 polio vaccines in their life and STILL got badly infected with polio.
How about Scarlet fever? It used to cause epidemics just as smallpox or polio and yet it disappeared at about the same time as all those other diseases, even though there were never any vaccine campaigns against it.
There were huge improvements in sanitation, nutrition and living standards that took place when those diseases were eradicated in the developed countries. Could there be anything to that? Could that also explain why diseases such as polio and measles continue to pop up in third-world countries among HEAVILY vaccinated populations?
Let's not even get into the
acknowledged dangers of both those vaccines. The measles vaccine has produced many cases of atypical measles (far more dangerous and deadly than the regular measles) and occurs ONLY in the vaccinated populations.
Or how about the fact that a simian virus, CONSISTENTLY SHOWN TO CAUSE CANCER IN LAB RATS, was introduced into countless millions of children's DNA via the polio vaccine?
The evidence and data are all there; I certainly don't always agree with the way they're interpreted though.
If someone is going to push a vaccine on me (or dogs, or kids etc.) I FIRST want PROOF that it works and that it's safe.
It shouldn't be the other way around. You shouldn't be forced to take massive doses of vaccines and be the one to bear the burden of proving that they're harmful and mostly ineffective.
(The above comment is aimed at Rich's statements, not Amber's).
Anyway, even in sticking to the topic of puppies and vaccines, what about all the heavily vaccinated puppies that develop parvo?
Why do those poor puppies get so sick when compared to unvaccinated pups? Just ask any experienced breeder and they'll tell you how much harder it is to pull a puppy out of the disease if it has been vaccinated.
I'm sure that Cindy has seen her share of sick vaccinated vs unvaccinated puppies. The fact that she chooses to spare her puppies of all vaccines says a lot to me.
If my unvaccinated puppy ever does get sick, I'm confident that her vigorous health will allow her to fight off the disease with ease. Her immunity has been allowed to develop naturally and is uncompromised (unlike vaccinated puppies).
I feel so bad when I see a vaccinated pup get sick with parvo... they have such weak immune systems that they don't stand much of a chance. Even if they do survive, they usually come out with some damage.
If anyone is interested in actually researching this, don't just swallow the medical community's conclusions. As Angelique mentioned, the $$$ incentive can make people reach vastly different conclusions compared to someone analyzing the facts with an objective mind...
