a little 5-day-old baby in SC died from pertussis because he had been too young to get his DPT vaccination.
and i have noticed many parents don't agree with the usual childhood vaccinations for various reasons. i can see the return of diseases that we thought had been wiped out.
Carter Dube of SC dies at 5 days
This is just sad and wrong. If all the people old enough to be vaccinated would be responsible and get the shots, little babies wouldn't have to catch their diseases and die.
I hate to tell people, not getting your child vaccinated for fear of autism is stupid. If you actually read the research, they have pretty much ruled vaccinations out as a cause. Autism and other similar disorders have a genetic component. Are you going to have your kids born without DNA? In fact, autism spectrum disorders are very closely linked to fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (and don't forget to include ADD and ADHD, also now thought to be mild forms of FASD). Chances are people have something already brewing in their DNA or they were drunk that first month after they conceived.
Not vaccinating is child abuse and giving your disease to a little baby is murder.
