The "me" from five years ago would tell the "now me" that he's crazy. But if I were to have a child (unlikely as my wife and I are both 50 and just the thought of a newborn makes me feel tired lol), I would not get any vaccinations for my child.

I'm not fully on board with the "vaccines can never be good" bandwagon as the basic science behind exposing someone to attenuated virus still seems sound to me.

But the quality of those vaccines is so poor (contaminants, made in China, etc) and the lack of transparency in regards to the data on how a young child responds to their immune system being provoked at such a young age, I strongly lean towards no vaccines right now.

Again, I'm not on board with the people that are black and white "all vaccines are poison" as the human body is rarely black and white.

But for what it's worth from a guy you've never met, I cautiously think you're making the best decision for your child.

And CONGRATULATIONS on your first kid! It's the greatest, most rewarding, gray-hair inducing, wonderful, stomach churning, amazing adventure that is humanly possible.

I wish and pray for the best for you, your wife and your new baby, AAPA.

I'm going to go give my son a hug.
