Is it really that bad?? Was there ever a time when doctors worked to protect their patients?? I am on the cusp of believing you...... Thinking back to our family doctor, (I'm 75 years old) I really trusted him and think he was honorable. Now I think he was brainwashed with the rest of us when it came to vaccines. Today's doctors, not so much, from personal experience.
I think I'd say the doctors were lied to rather than brainwashed. We had a great GP when our kids were growing up. But when the oldest was 15 & never had chicken pox, I asked if blood could be drawn for an antibody titer (to see if our son had a sub-clinical case - no symptoms). Doc suggested he just get the c-pox vax, and it was fairly new at the time; also if the titer was negative, there would be a shot in addition to the blood draw. I held my ground and the blood sample showed that he had c-pox antibodies, so no vax required.
Perhaps brainwashed was too strong a term. We were all lied to. When I had chickenpox as a kid, my mom let my two year younger sister sleep next to me, face to face, we both got it, but recovered nicely. Thanks to Dr. Spock.
When my oldest got chickenpox, I didn't keep my younger child at the time from her, so he ended up getting it. Every night they'd sit in a oatmeal bath, then I'd dap calamine lotion on all their little bumps. Then came our 3rd child, she got the chickenpox vaxx and never got chickenpox even when she was around a child with it, which the parent told me he had the vaxx also but had a mild case of it.
Though if I knew then what I know now about the childhood vaxxines not being good for them, I wouldn't have given any of the kids any shots. I'm upset with myself for not knowing and being so trusting of the doctors. But it was a different time back then, wasn't easy to get information like it is now.
When our children were young, in the '90s, we let them play with kids who had chicken pox, so they would get it. That was pretty common back then. The chicken pox vaccine either was very new, or hadn't come out yet. Fortunately, our kids missed a lot of the shots they now have on "the recommended schedule".
Hey I am 72...there were/are some good doctors who I have known that were great...but many are not...especially with today's money driven, pharma controlled medical establishment. But I believe you have to treat the medical community like the commodity it is and proceed with great caution, do your research and make your own decisions about medical issues...you are the consumer...doctors are not God...they provide a service. I hope you have good health and don't have to explicitly trust any doctors.. "knowledge is power" is so relevant today...God bless you...perhaps your eyes were opened to just a little bit more truth...you can't know what you don't know and that's what makes learning so much fun...even at our age...🤣...
Thank you for that. It's not me that I am worried about. It's my grandkids, some of whom have issues that I am now attributing to these poisons. Don't know what do do about it. Parents eyes glaze over when "old people" rant about things. My cold anger is very real and looking for an outlet. BTW, I have no doctor, do my own blood work yearly and take supplements. I trust people like you more than the "science". And I'm still Kicking!!
That's the saddest thing, that our own grown children will believe whatever they are told on TV, rather than what we tell them.
I had 5 kids...no vaccines...I have 8 grands...4 are not vaccinated but my son married a nurse practitioner and their children are vaxxed to the max...and another son married a nurse and their son is vaxxed...it just breaks my heart but I have to let go and let God...I have shared so much info to no avail...just pray for them...God knows and cares...
You sound like my kind of "young at heart"...who takes responsibility for their own health...I go to a doctor for yearly checkups but he has been my doctor for almost 30 years and we work together as "equals"...he respects my knowledge and desires and knows he is not in charge of me...I take lots of supplements and do alternative healthcare...it's a lot of fun actually...so much available out there...good health becomes ever more precious the older you get...it is SUCH a blessing...and God is so good...
My wife and I always say to our kids, the Good Lord will provide.....
