I have been concerned for the past weeks as my delivery due date is getting closer. I know Polio can be letal for anybody, so I'm trap in a dilemma.
The current Polio Vax used in the States is the IPV (injectable) that contains MRC-5, while the more "ethical" OPV (oral) has long been discontinued.
I wouldn't want my baby to suffer due to polio in the future, however, the IPV (injectable) goes against my religious beliefs and is a clear catch from big pharma. They could have let the OPV one as an option, but they just wanted money.
Greedy bastards.
Any advices, alternatives?
This is the reason why I love this community. I'm relatively young (25 y/o) and not really a native citizen of the states, so I don't know much about history and events like these due to the fact that they don't teach those things in 3rd world countries.
Thanks so much for the knowledge that you share.
They don’t teach it here either!
