Some may consider vaccines the greatest invention of modern medicine, but are they completely guaranteed to be totally effective and safe? Before delving into mis- and disinformation surrounding vaccines, it is worth wondering if some of these contagious diseases require a vaccine. Some diseases, like measles, mumps and rubella, can be easily managed with home treatments. However, there are also some diseases, such as meningitis, the are potentially very serious. Since 2007, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends vaccinations for up to 11 different disease by the time a child is 6 years old (Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, 2007).
Link To Autism
Autism has in fact been linked to the MMR vaccine. Many researches have discovered the MMR vaccine to be a cause of behavioral disorders. An reanalysis of CDC data concluded that African American males receiving the MMR vaccine prior to 24 months of age or 36 months of age are more likely to receive a autism diagnosis (Hooker, 2014). The major concern is vaccines that include thimerosal, a toxic preservative that contains mercury which can damage the brain, especially among children (Geier et al., 2013). Researchers concluded stating that mercury may cause or contribute to the development of autism spectrum disorder (Kern et al., 2012). While vaccinations have progressively removing this ingredient over time, thimerosal is currently present in flu vaccines (CDC, 2016).

Vaccines as Silent Weapons
Welcome to the world of soft kill eugenics. Vaccines are silent weapons in the quiet war.
Follow the Money
Vaccinations are expected to be a $77 billion dollar industry by 2024 (Grand View Research, 2017). The pharmaceutical companies that are involved creating these vaccines use their money and power to influence government, the medical system and mislead physicians that vaccines are essential for preventing disease.
