As with anything, there is likely truth to be found on various levels. I think there is a distinction between the sincere good intentions of the individuals working in the medical industry, vs the industry as a whole. I absolutely believe that the majority of medical personnel (doctors, nurses, etc.) do mean well and have their heart in their work. Many of them are now getting involved in complementary medicine (bridging the gap between allopathic and alternative medicine). Most of the medical personnel having good intentions does not necessarily negate the possibility of a few with malicious intentions. Nor am I even saying that there are malicious intentions at all! In fact, I vehemently disagree with those who think there is a massive conspiracy to wipe out the populaton blah blah blah. But there can be good intentions and the result still be harmful to those who aren't educated about the issue.
Case in point: I'd venture to say that the vast majority of the parents whose children have been harmed by vaccines were totally fine with getting their kids vaccinated. They did it in good faith! They didn't have fears of some conspiracy! So we really can't say that they attracted the outcome based on their fear (not consciously anyway). In fact, most of the parents I've spoken with (I know several personally and others I've met thru activist groups) whose children were harmed, and thus are now activists, are just regular, mainstream people. It was their unexpected experience with vaccines that woke them up! They are now activist because of what they experienced!

I totally respect your choice! I am not advocating that everyone necessarily avoid all vaccinations. Even though that is my choice, what I am advocating is that info about the controversy be made available, in as unbiased form as possible, so that those who wish to consider alternative points of view have an opportunity to do so. What I am against is the medical industry suppressing data, pushing their propaganda, and pretending that there is no controversy when there is indeed a controversy.
