Is your son in daycare or other situations where he is exposed to a lot of people or illness? If not, I’d ask for more time. He literally can’t catch these illnesses just in your home, so ask to wait until he’s going to be more exposed.
In the meantime, I’d look for the video Vaxxed, or another: The Truth About Vaccines. You can also read (both of you) the book: The Vaccine Friendly Plan. The writer is a doctor who talks about the risk of each illness and the risk of each vaccine, and he offers a plan for choosing WHICH vaccines a parent may want, and proposes a schedule. For instance, why does a toddler need a HepB vaccines, when the illness is transmitted through VERY risky adult behaviors? At the very least, you may come to a compromise.
Unfortunately,the existence of vaccines has allowed us to believe that the population is out there just teeming with these viruses, and the vaccines kill them. Obviously, that’s not how it works - healthy people don’t spread disease. But it takes time (I’m telling you from experience) to shake that off completely. Start small and don’t panic. My first 2 kids were fully vaxxed, but I was hearing a lot of info and starting to question. My 3rd had visible reactions to her first vaccines, and that’s when I started to pay a lot of attention really fast.
You’re both clearly wanting what’s best for your child, and try to remember that. It can be too easy to work against each other instead of with each other.
I don't actually know who this guy is.
But what the world likes to call 'anti-vaxxers' is actually very often people who DID vaccinate their children and then saw health impacts. They prefer to be called "ex-vaxxers" or "vaccine safety advocates." They aren't stupid- they spend more time researching vaccines than the general population...not unlike this group.
I don't find this post compatible with the message to research and stop taking the govt/CDC at face value.
I don’t even want to hear some of the things he posts. It’s almost like grotesque-porn, but to think some of these things to be true would actually be dangerous.
Biden was executed before he ever ran? By the good guys? Then who the hell was Trump running against, and how would doing so make HIM a “good guy.” That would ACTUALLY be an attempted coup. Makes no sense, and people are frothing for it.
I don't know what to think of Graham. I fought hard against the Lincoln Project attacks on him in SC (which makes me like him better, if they wanted him out so bad). But I was really fighting against Jaime Harrison, more than was for Graham. But one of my friends is his friend. And her husband works for him. And my friend is a Patriot with a capital P. So I haven't given up on him yet.
I guess he was saying that sort of line at a few rallies in the fall. I think this is the one I heard in real time. https://youtu.be/v4uwNtBYNP8
I was watching for it a few days ago on the fuzzy boom video. He got on the plane, Psaki and crew stood around giggling, handling carry on bags...no military appeared with a leather bag to follow the president, at least as far as I could see.
Your description of their reasoning actually sounds very logical. I don't know what 5 weeks would be the magic number, but lymph nodes do get inflamed as they build immune response to illness. It stands to reason, objectively speaking, that they would do the same for a vaccine, and that could interfere with an accurate result on a mammogram.
I thought the troops had hotels in DC. The floor/garage sleeping was on breaks, not overnight.
