I wish this was available to us, a couple of years ago Meningitis B (MeNZB) became available, It is available free from newborn through to 19. A huge outcry came about from the anti vaccination crowd, everything was bandied about from mercury poisoning to the vaccine not being tested properly and how the children were guinea pigs to the actual vaccine causing meningitis and the favourite flavour the vaccine causes autism. All of the scaremongering has been debunked, not one child got meningitis from the vaccine, nor did autism occur in any child specifically after vaccination. Meningitis B is an insidious disease with kills and maims permanently if they are lucky enough to survive, since the vaccination program the infection rate has dramatically plummeted 75%. There are still people who say this is incorrect and there always will be but the statistics speak for themselves. Yes there were some temporary side effects, mass hysterical vomiting and headaches was common during the initial immunisation programs at schools, which was immediately used in the anti-immunisation propaganda machine as a dangerous reaction to the vaccine.

We all like to give our kids the best chance in life. A life without rubella, polio, ppv, rheumatic fever and the multitude of other diseases we can immunise against is a good foundation. If we can give them anything at least it can be their health and a quality of life that they themselves can build on.



Postscipt:
100% of people who drink water die, some children who are vaccinated at 6 weeks may be diagnosed with autism at 4. Does anyone see the coincidence in these statements?
