4.0 out of 5 stars Authoritative 8 April 2009
By Roger B. Houghton
Format:Hardcover
I had shared in the doubt and uncertainty about combined vaccinations and mercury salt preservatives until I read this slim book.
It is a finely crafted piece of work using the life and work of a chemist to review the entire subject.
I am a grandfather and actually bought two copies - one for each of my children who now themselves have children of their own. I know they will find it helpful.

1.0 out of 5 stars God save us from the likes of Offit and Hilleman 13 Feb 2011
By whale.to
Format:Paperback
Hillman deserves nothing.

For example, mumps was a mild safe disease as this quote points out:

"A fairly common risk of mumps is the swelling of testes in a boy or the ovaries in a girl. This is much more common in an adult. Invariably the swelling goes down after a few days leaving no ill effects. It is excessively rare for the swelling to cause sterility. A rare complication is acute pancreatitis which passes within a few days. "Mumps is generally a mild disease. The usual outcome is complete recovery within about 10 days" ----From the MacMillan Guide to Family Health 1982

yet now we have mumps vaccines killing and maiming children with autism and bowel disease.

As Dr Wakefield points out:

"Mumps in this country, in the U.S. the CDC did a study. When Maurice Hillerman went from Merck, the head of vaccines at Merck went to the CDC... I have a mumps vaccine; I would like you to use it. They did a study and they said there is no need. Mumps is a trivial disease in children; we do not need this vaccine. Exactly the same happened in the UK. The Department of Health, the Medicines Control Agency, the regulators in the UK said, this is a trivial disease in children. We do not need a mumps vaccine. But it got in. ....So you have effectively taken a trivial disease and by vaccinating, you have turned it into a more dangerous disease. Now, they are in a real mess. They are in a real mess because one dose of MMR doesn't prevent it. Two doses of MMR don't prevent it; three doses. You are creating a population that is dependent upon reboosting with vaccines for the rest of their lives to avoid this complication, a man-made complication.....There was incompetence. They were incompetent. They were so zealous.... Read more ›
