Why Won't Doctors Discuss Vaccines?

. . . there's no point in even discussing vaccinations with somebody who is already convinced they know better than we do but it's interesting that most doctors get so defensive and agitated by those of us who choose not to vaccinate our kids. 

 

I've never come up with anything like it with regards to other medical situations such as declining to use antibiotics or paracetamol and that's in a situation where my child is already sick, so it seems an unbalanced reaction when they want to argue it out with us.

1a. vaccination / MD liability

Samantha,

 

Yes, it's true that M.D.s consistently react in an over-the-top emotional way to those who question or postpone vaccination.

 

I have never heard of a pro-vax M.D. who was willing to carry on a reasoned conversation on this subject.

 

Check out my $75,000 reward for M.D.s or pharmco CEOs to drink a vax additive cocktail:

It's been almost six years since the original ($20,000) offer first made the rounds on the internet (it's now on over 300 web sites). And so far -- no takers.

 

That's why I recently upped the ante to $75,000.

 

Sincerely,

Hi Jock,

 

It's an amazing proposal your offer of $75,000 and I remember finding out about that years ago. 

 

I love your site.  I'm not in the least surprised that nobody has taken you up on that offer all this time.  It blows my mind that people inject something directly into their bloodstream that is toxic to drink.

 

The MD (or GP as we call them here in Oz) that has given me the most grief is an old family friend. 

 

Even though we have calmly discussed Unassisted Birth which he feels is very unsafe and have gone over his advice to circumcise my son which turned out to be rubbish and he made it clear he thought a lotus birth was crazy he cannot talk to me in a rational way about vaccination. 

 

He gets very agitated, red in the face, leaps about the room, gets out volumes of stats to show me and actually told me outright that my child will get measles and become permanently damaged.

 

By the end of our conversation which I allowed to go on way too long I felt embarrassed for him and I lost a lot of respect for him at that day.  It came up because I asked him for a vaccination exemption form and he refused to give me one let alone sign it and I wonder if that is usual. 

 

My understanding was that the doctor is obliged to explain the risks of not vaccinating (i.e. that my child might contract the diseases . . .), not decide anything on my behalf and choose who does and doesn't get to apply for exemption. I must ask the AVN [Australian Vaccination Network] about that.

 

At the vaccination seminar that I went to recently they talked about the similarity between tobacco companies and drug companies and how years ago tobacco companies refused to acknowledge that they were killing people and making them sick for profit and that drug companies that produce vaccines are doing the same today. 

 

Eventually tobacco companies were open about the dangers of cigarettes and had to clearly announce the dangers on the package and compensate people if they do become ill or die. 

 

The hope is that in time drug companies producing vaccines will also be as transparent and will compensate damaged recipients of their product as well as clearly announce the dangers to purchasers of their product rather than what we have now which is a piddly little insert in the vaccine packet which does acknowledge some of the dangers but in the tiniest writing which nobody seems to read anyway. 

 

Tobacco companies also used to offer incentives to those promoting their product (sponsored sporting teams etc.) and they are no longer allowed to do this, and it would be great if doctors weren't being bribed to push these drugs on us but rather respected our right to informed choice and offered us all the info openly.
