The hepatitis B vaccine is in the news this week as a French lawsuit raises concerns regarding the association between the vaccine and Multiple Sclerosis (MS). In 1998 the vaccine was curtailed from routine use in France amid rising concerns of significant risk of the vaccine precipitating multiple sclerosis. The best available research on the subject was published in 2004 in the journal Neurology. That study was a prospective, well done project that showed a 310% increase in MS among people who received the hepatitis B vaccination! ..

Dr. Mark Nesselson, a New York pediatrician who conspired with families to get their children into school without state-mandated vaccinations, has been fined $10,000 and told he can practice only under supervision. Dr. Nesselson admitted to falsifying forms for four children in two families, and later admitted that he had done the same for a handful of other families over the years.
The parents of his patients, who knew Nesselson was falsifying the forms, were concerned about the potential adverse health effects of vaccines.
Nesselson began to question the safety of vaccines in the 1990’s, after seeing many autistic children whose parents said that the onset of the disorder coincided with vaccinations. Nesselson’s actions were discovered after he moved to Hawaii two years ago and gave medical records to his patients' parents to take to their new doctors. A new pediatrician seen by two families turned Nesselson in.

I got my baby injected with 6 in 1 vaccination injection last week. Oh we have improved so much in medical science that unlike early years we only have one injection for the infant which covers 6 illnesses.In the second month the babies are given the first dose of this 6 in 1 injection plus some optional vaccination injections if the parents feel necessary.When my princess was new born, she had Hepatitis B - 1st dose and BCG vaccination on her arms. I gave my baby the following in her 2nd month:1. Hepatitis B - 2nd dose2. Diphtheria - 1st dose3. Pertussis - 1st dose4. Tetanus - 1st dose5. Poliomyelitis - 1st dose6. Hib influenza BI also gave another optional vaccination Rotarix - 1st oral dose for preventing the infant from diahorrea.http://technorati.com/people/technorati/nisha4680
By: Jason Petrina Today it is highly recommended that certain individuals obtain the flu vaccine in order to avoid contracting this virus, which can be highly dangerous for the elderly and persons with weakened immune systems. Despite this advice by medical professionals; however, many year innumerable people continue to ignore this advice due to concerns regarding the safety of the flu vaccine. As a result, more than 20,000 people continue to die in the United States as a result of flu related complications. The flu vaccine is manufactured using an inactivated or killed viral vaccine. During the manufacturing process, the flu viruses are actually grown inside chicken eggs and then are later harvested. A chemical process is used to kill the live flu virus. After purification and testing for safety, the vaccine is ready to be used in order to vaccinate humans. There are actually many different varieties of the flu. Researchers and scientists determine which strains will be most predomin
The flu season runs from November to April, with most cases occurring between late December and early March. About 10% to 20% of people get the flu every winter [1]. In children, the odds are even worse, with up to 40% of children becoming clinically ill due to the influenza virus.
The best way to prevent seasonal flu is to get a flu vaccination. Hospitalization and death from flu complications pose real risks. Every year, on average, more than 200,000 people are hospitalized from flu complications and approximately 36,000 people die from the flu [2].
Additionally, immunizing children against influenza is perhaps the best method to reduce the occurrence of the flu in the community. If children receive the flu shot but the rest of the family abstains, the influenza attack rate drops by 40%; if parents also get the flu shot, the influenza attack rate drops by 80% [3].

Influenza is a respiratory infection caused by a number of RNA viruses. An airborne virus, the flu en
Measles is one of the most infectious viruses known. It spreads through the air when people infected with the disease cough or sneeze. Children in wealthier countries are usually vaccinated to protect against measles.An international campaign called the Measles Initiative was launched in two thousand one to vaccinate children in developing countries. Thaim was a fifty percent reduction in deaths related to measles by two thousand five.Last week, organizers of the Measles Initiative announced that the final numbers showed a sixty percent drop in deaths.In nineteen ninety-nine, the year used for comparison, there were eight hundred seventy-three thousand deaths. Six years later that number had dropped to three hundred forty-five thousand.The organizers say more than two million lives have been saved, mostly in Africa. Health officials report a seventy-five percent drop in deaths in Africa connected to measles.Measles itself is usually not a direct cause of death. Deaths are commonly the

A vaccine that has dramatically curbed pneumonia and other serious illnesses in children is also having an unfortunate effect: promoting new superbugs that cause ear infections.
On Monday, doctors reported discovering the first such germ that is resistant to all drugs approved to treat childhood ear infections. Nine toddlers in Rochester, N.Y., have had the bug and researchers say it may be turning up elsewhere, too.

A successful HPV vaccination program requires more than just a series of injections, says a public health expert in this week's BMJ.Careful planning, adequate education, and long term monitoring will be needed, argues Angela Raffle, a consultant in public health at Bristol Primary Care Trust.Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common sexually transmitted infection seen most often in young women and adolescents. There are more than 100 types of HPV, some cause only genital warts, but others cause cancers including cervical cancer.Screening currently reduces deaths from cervical cancer by around 80% but a new jab can offer full protection against HPV strains linked to about 70% of cervical cancers. The UK government is now considering whether girls aged 11 or 12 should be vaccinated, before they become sexually active and can catch HPV.Raffle believes that the only certain way of determining the long term impact of vaccination will be to follow vaccinated women for several decades, while an

Have you recently followed the discussions about HPV vaccination (http://www.cdc.gov/std/hpv/STDFact-HPV-vaccine.htm)?Cervical cancer quiz (http://rdoctor.com/Quiz/cervical_cancer.htm) Cervical cancer quiz for wireless device (http://rdoctor.com/Quiz/cervical_cancer.wml) Just remember that you put your at higher risk for cervical cancer if you have many sexual partners and start sex early in life. All of that puts you at risk of being infected with sexually transmitted diseases. The infectious diseases cause inflammation, which, in turn, pushes the cervical cells to change. Also, substances in the tobacco smoke and hormones (from birth control pills and or from being pregnant many times) promote the cancerous changes in the cells. Having HPV on top of that is the recipe for developing cervical cancer, since HPV gets into the cellular DNA and changes it. Not all types of HPV are linked to cancer (for example 6 and 11 cause just w
