Point #13
The following are NOT opinions, but actual verifiable facts. Research any of it if you have doubts or just want to expand your knowledge.
13) an overwhelming majority of doctors have never even bothered to read the full vaccine package inserts they receive from the vaccine manufacturers that lists all the ingredients and possible side effects"
This is making the argument that the Vaccine Package Inserts are the gold standard of being informed about vaccines, which we discussed in a previous post. It's probably true that most vaccine-administering physicians don't read the inserts on a regular basis, but that is a foolish point.
I'd venture to say that some vaccine-using physicians have this book as a reference, which is surely more informative that a single vaccine insert. It's over 1,200 pages
In Yes, doctors know what they’re talking about: Refuting a common anti-vaccine argument, a physician estimates her investment in vaccine education
"So I thought about that and added up time I spent learning immunology and infectious disease in the First Two Years of medical school. Without even counting the related fields of physiology, the respiratory system, gastroenterology, histology, neurology, etc, I came up with 920 hours of graduate education in immunolgy, microbiology, and infectious disease – and that’s before ever hitting the wards in 3rd and 4th years.
And of course that doesn’t even count the time spent in training by Family Practice, Pediatrics, or Internal Medicine residents.
If we presume that my (rather average) medical school was representative, then most doctors spend ~ 920 hours in graduate education in this field before ever being allowed to sit for the Step I Board Exam and, if we passed it, allowed onto wards and into clinics.
And all of that is miniscule compared to the amount of education involved for biomedical researchers in the field who are the ones figuring out these principles. We doctors need to know how to understand and apply those principles, since we don’t have to derive the background information ourselves. A PhD in the field would have easily spent 70-80 hrs/week in class, labs, and reading, at least 45 weeks per year, for about 4 years.
That’s 75x45x4= 13,500 hours of graduate education, not including Bachelor’s or Master’s Degrees. For a researcher with 10 years experience, that’s a minimum of 13,500 + (2080 hrs/yr x 10 yrs) = 34,300 hours of education, training, experience."
VERDICT: THE AUTHOR'S OPINION.
Here is the list of claims, with links to the discussion of each claim:
- Bonus: Claim that "I'm doing the research that your pediatrician NEVER had to do."
- #1 Combined doses of Vaccines have NEVER been tested for safety.
- #2 Vaccine manufacturers have been granted legal immunity from being sued when their products inflict damage.
- #3 DNA from aborted fetuses is in vaccines.
- #4 the CDC has been caught destroying and hiding evidence
- #5 outbreaks occur in populations that are up to 90-99% vaccinated -- herd immunity a myth
- #6 More people die from the MMR vaccine itself than die of the measles.
- #7 Peanut allergies were almost unheard of prior to the use of peanut oil in vaccines.
- #8 Multiple independent studies have shown vaccinated children are more likely to have asthma.
- #9 Information on vaccines is hidden from parents.
- #10 Vaccine package inserts prove the dangers of vaccines.
- #11 Doctors are bribed to vaccinate
- #12 Vaccine manufacturers and the CDC are only self-regulated
- #13 Doctors are ill-informed about vaccines
- #14 Vaccines cause SIDS&
- #15 Diseases have been renamed after the introduction of a vaccine.
- #16 The anti-vaccine movement isn't new
- #17 All live virus vaccines shed and cause diseases
- #18 Combining acetaminophen and vaccines is dangerous.
- Bonus: MTHFR gene variants and vaccination
