Synopsis
This book provides parents with a comprehensive, scientifically based guide to the facts, myths, problems and solutions associated with raising a vaccine free child. It helps them protect their children both from the wiles of the vaccine industry and from harmful germs. There are no trendy anti-vaccination myths in this book. The information is fully referenced and factually based. Readers will learn that immunization is not the reason for the absence of some infectious diseases, that insidious, long-term side effects of vaccination are very common, and that there is a media blackout on the topics of vaccine damage and vaccine failures.
Understanding the difference between childhood diseases and the other infectious diseases is the key to understanding immunisation. Modern medicine fails to recognise that childhood illnesses are self-resolving, and prescribes interventions that increase the risk of complications. Raising a Vaccine Free Child explains why the self-resolving diseases, like measles and mumps, do not need intervention, but do need proper care to prevent complications from developing. It also advises parents on how to bring children safely through childhood diseases, and discusses the prevention and treatment of the malevolent infectious diseases that are not self-resolving, such as polio and tetanus.
The author provides an insight into the workings of the vaccine industry, and into the role of the media in perpetuating myths about vaccination and about infectious diseases. Parents of vaccine free children will be empowered to withstand the accusation that they are spoiling herd immunity, as this book demonstrates that the concept of herd immunity is amyth. Raising a Vaccine Free Child also helps parents cope with aggression from individuals and with intimidation from the medical authorities.
This book discusses the toxic ingredients and biological contaminants in vaccines, and the relationship between vaccination and the global epidemic of chronic diseases. It shows that the long-term side effects of vaccination have not been assessed at any time in any country. A look at the history of vaccination reveals that it is an unscientific procedure that is based on falsehood, cruelty and supposition.

July 15, 2008: it is nice to know that there are parents willing to research vaccinations as there has been an increase in childhood diseases since the ridiculous amount of vaccinations have been mandated. Well, Adrianna, do you have children? Did you know the chicken pox vaccine was created so mothers would not miss work, not because it is a deadly disease? When was the last time you saw a case of polio? It is everyones own choice to vaccinate and even if you do vaccinate, it does not guarantee you will not contract the disease. Keep your criticisms to yourselves...the drug companies also have something to gain!

June 23, 2008: This is the best book on vaccination I have read because it not only explains what is wrong with vaccination, it also helped me lose my fear of the diseases that my children could catch by giving me information about each disease. The advice is not flighty, it is backed up with evidence from scientific studies. People who do vaccinate also need this advice because their children can get the diseases. I found the historical section amazing. We have been taught to believe untrue myths, and every parent needs to know the true historical facts, especially about Pasteur and Jenner. I liked the amusing anecdotes about the way believers in vaccination behave, and after reading it I am better able to cope with the anger that my decision not to vaccinate provokes.
