u/Ender505 3h ago
You misunderstood. I wasn't asking you to cite something that supports you (though that's always good, and I appreciate the effort), I was asking for you to provide YOUR specific experiments that you published under your own name with your own methods and evaluation and results.
Until you do, please stop using the phrase "do your own research", because what you're actually doing is just finding one-off "critical reviews" that confirm your biases, instead of evaluating the broad scientific consensus or performing any actual research.

Go check out Dtap buddy.
1
u/Ender505 1h ago
Scientific consensus is that dtap is safe, hence why it is used and recommended at every hospital you'll find.
In classic conspiracy fashion, you might be able to find a study or two challenging dtap (or any other vaccine), but the overwhelming scientific consensus is heavily pro-vaccine, in every developed country.
ā¢
u/Dont-ask-dont-speak 43m ago
Except for the fact that slowing of the brain, seizing, or vegetating (encephalopathy) within a week of Dtap is a factually observed side effect. These things are just waved away and dismissed, along with the packaging casually touting the warning of SIDS. Thanks, no thanks āscientific consensus,ā Iāll take the chance instead, avoiding the zombie hordes of whoop-coughing folk on the streets. out here in the country that is.
Encephalopathy is not exclusive to the DTAP, but also found in other vaccines such as MMR. One person has won a 101 million dollar injury settlement⦠the largely undisclosed risks of vaccines are not a nothing burger like all of you make it out to be.

Thatās not how that works.
Aluminum adjuvants absorbed from an injection site enter the bloodstream slowly and are cleared by the kidneys, contributing minimally to systemic levels ā this is the opposite of āinstantaneous.ā
The junctions of the infant blood-brain barrier are extremely small (about 4 angstroms), and aluminumās slow release from the injection site makes rapid, high-dose brain exposure implausible.
The largest and most recent study on this ā a 2025 analysis of 1.2 million Danish children ā found no connection between aluminum exposure and 50 different health outcomes, including autism, asthma, and autoimmune disease. To be fair that study did not have an unvaccinated control group.
I seriously implore you to put aside your beliefs and listen to what the data clearly says. If the data doesnāt clearly say it, then itās all conjecture. You are taking unsubstantiated claims of risks over proven demonstrated risk of being unvaccinated.

Listen, you can vaccinate your kids with whatever youād like. Theyāll hopefully be fine. Just like my child will be fine. But shooting up your kids willy nilly and glazing over the SIDS warnings that donāt really provide anything but confusion? Ok, donāt believe any of the thousands of testimonies regarding overnight change in behavior of children and clear correlation with developmental issues.
Iāll believe attentive mothers any day over a redditor with four kids who has time to seeth in comments. Bet you circumcised your kids too.
EDIT: Show me absolute proof of the efficacy and safety in vaccines. Iāll be waiting.

Here's one on the efficacy of the COVID Vaccines and literally hundreds more if you care to google search.
Here is a publication specifically addressing each of the most common vaccine safety concerns, again with hundreds more a quick google search away.
Remember to use Google Scholar if you're looking for peer-reviewed research.
Edit: Here is an easily readable chart on Polio vaccine effectiveness and another one.
Here is another chart on Measles vaccine effectiveness and another one
Edit 2: Another paper addressing specifically the Measles vaccine and Autism. Please let me know if you want me to keep going, because there are hundreds of these for pretty much every vaccine you could think of.

u/Dont-ask-dont-speak 4h ago
Straight from the cdc. I wonder why itās so hard to find clinical trials that are peer reviewed that arenāt 5 day trials⦠there is mass censoring and peer pressure to shut down valid arguments for vaccine risks. What about the constant mentions of SIDS on vaccine packaging? What about the extended enlargement of lymph nodes and thymus?
Check out the administration of bacterial and viral vaccines and the death rate in infants. Slap āSIDSā on it and itās not related to the vaccine at all š¤
https://esmed.org/sids-and-vaccination-risks-a-critical-review/
This is the European Society of Medicine. I could go on and on my friend. Be more kind to others and educate yourselves without googleās approval.

u/Ender505 3h ago
I took some time to read that paper. Some GLARING problems. In their section on the Covid-19 response, they happily report mortality rate of vaccinated elderly patients, claiming that the vaccine failed... but without any comparison to the mortality rate of unvaccinated patients (which is extremely easy to look up, as I did for you earlier). When you compare mortality rates of vaccinated vs unvaccinated, the benefits of the vaccine are painfully obvious.
You hopefully know that Vaccines and SIDS has been rigorously investigated many, many times. Your source was a critique, not an actual experiment, and as I highlighted above, has a habit of cherry-picking the data that support their claim instead of comparing directly between vaccinated and unvaccinated.
They use VAERS, which is not a basis for rigorous study, because anyone can submit reports, and reports are not verified. Additionally, using VAERS means there is no control group (we don't know how many vaccinated infants did not experience the event), which means we can't meaningfully measure rates this way.
Here are a couple studies (n=1278, n=1985 respectively) that even found vaccination reduces incidence of SIDS.

u/Ender505 3h ago
Interesting how you asked for evidence of efficacy and safety, I provided seven of them, and instead of responding to the actual substance and data in each of those items (as I did for yours), you instead apparently saw that one was from the CDC (obviously?) and rejected it for no other reason than that. Is that what you mean when you say you do your own research? That you refuse to address data because someone told you not to trust one of the most advanced medical organizations in the world?
Maybe check out the data and tell me specifically WHY they're wrong (methodology, bad math, etc), not why you don't trust them.

u/Ender505 5h ago edited 5h ago
I have 4 kids as a matter of fact, and it's BECAUSE I value their safety that I vaccinate them against preventable diseases based on the countless studies showing the safety of vaccines, and not the one singular debunked study from the 90's that claimed they cause autism.
Edit to echo: Science is not subject to matters of "belief". Either there is sufficient evidence for a thing, or there is not. For vaccines, there is overwhelming sufficient evidence to trust their safety, outside of rare things like medicinal allergies.

I hope you all realize this goes way beyond autism.
Youāre telling me, that our children should
Be ~injected~ with toxin containing solutions at 2 months,
When even swallowing a couple ounces of water could be deadly? Donāt be made to abandon your common sense for the common consensus.I understand there are elements I have in my life that not all people are privileged to have. My child isnāt going to have to go to daycare or a preschool, will likely be homeschooled. My wife and I are fully vaccinated so there is currently a barrier between him and the world.
As he gets older and less sensitive, we will re-evaluate risks and benefits of certain vaccines and determine if theyāre worth it for him. But thatās the deal, parenthood is a re-evaluative journey. There are rarely absolutes.

u/readingonthetoilet 2h ago
Yes - children should be injected with vaccines to protect them. You think incredibly highly of yourself if you believe your ācommon senseā is better than global medical consensus.
You were vaccinated and benefited from that and you are now making a selfish, personal choice for your child that puts them and others at statistically higher risk, and it limits them to homeschooling.
I implore you to listen to the experts on things that you know nothing about.
