To sis and anyone else who is interested

Sis, Dan gave a website in one of his post which had some really great information. I have pasted below a portion of it inregards to vaccination shots that you might want to use for future reference as well as read the links that it suggests.

 

DAN! (Defeat Autism NOW!) Vaccination Guidelines:

 

Updated: April 2005

 

1.Use Thimerosal / Mercury free vaccines!!

The only way to know for sure a vaccine is mercury/ thimerosal free is to read the insert, box and vial yourself! Many doctors still have mercury/ thimerosal vaccines sitting in the refrigerators! And yes, mercury / thimerosal containing vaccines are still being made!! Be sure to be 100% sure!

 

If you are wondering which vaccines currently contain ethylmercury and which do not, visit:

- http://www.vaccinesafety.edu/thi-table.htm and

- http://www.vaccinesafety.edu/thi-table.htm#2

 

For information about which flu shots contain ethylmercury and which do not, visit some CDC-created information at:

Flu Vaccine 2004 Mercury Content

- http://www.safeminds.org/NewChart.pdf

 

NOTE: I have heard time and time again that parents/ professionals and others have indicated that thimerosal has been removed from vaccines since 1999 – THIS IS NOT A TRUE STATEMENT! Please be sure to read the vial, the box and the vial yourself! Different manufacturers will post the information in DIFFERENT PLACES.

 

2. Do not vaccinate newborns.

 

3. Avoid re-immunization with a vaccine after a previous bad reaction.

 

4.NEVER vaccinate ill children or children recovering from an infection.

 

5. Space vaccines - do not give multiple vaccines in 1 day.

(THAT INCLUDES single vaccine doses that have multiple viruses! Split them up!)

 

6. Use single dose vials from which to draw up the vaccines as opposed to multiple-dose vials which provide less uniform dosage.

 

7. Use inactivated polio. (the shot, not the drops)

 

8. Give RDA (Recommended Daily Allowances) of Vitamin C before and after vaccines

 

9. Give a natural form of Vitamin A ( cod liver oil ) to keep RDA's at level at all times for the age.

 

10. Separate the MMR into 3...start with measles at 12-15 months, then mumps at 18-21 months, rubella at 24-27 months.

 

11. Do not give live virus vaccines to immunodeficient children.

 

12. Do not give vaccines if allergic to any of these components:

 

i. Yeast - Hep B

 

ii. Eggs - MMR

 

iii. Neonycian - MMR or Varicella

 

13. Hold off on the Varicella until 10-12 years & if the child is shown not immune to Chicken pox.

 

14. Checking vaccine titers before giving boosters (Most people are immune after one dose. We continue to get multiple doses that MAY NOT BE NEEDED. Have them check antibody levels via titres blood test.)

Thanks, Andy. I'll need to try to read this before this afternoon, -The EI lady is coming and I'm sure its going to be interesting trying to explain why my son is behind on his shots.

I dont have alot of faith in this EI program at all. When I called the number, the lady answered 'hello'- ---Ugh......HELLO? not "Early Intervention Program, this is Barb, can I help you?"

Hopefully she might be helpful with some resources.
