Unvaccinated kids cause worst level of measles infections in Scotland since 1994
MEASLES - UK (SCOTLAND)
*********************** Source: The Scotsman newspaper, Tue 2 Jan 2007 [edited http://news.scotsman.com/health.cfm?id=9642007&format=print The number of people catching measles across Scotland has reached a 12-year high, according to latest National Health Service (NHS) figures. Doctors believe there is a link between a low take-up of the controversial MMR [measles-mumps-rubella] vaccine and the rise in outbreaks of measles. A total of 26 people caught measles in Scotland in 2006, the highest number of infections recorded in any year since 1994 -- when the 2nd dose of MMR vaccine was introduced. There was a cluster of measles outbreaks in the Lothians [the district surrounding the capital --Edinburgh] in 2006 but none in recent months. Take-up of the MMR vaccine in south Edinburgh is the lowest in mainland Scotland with one in 5 children still not being immunised by the time they are 6 years old. In the rest of the city, one child in 10 is not immunised. Parents in Edinburgh have today been warned they risk causing measles and mumps outbreaks. Dr Harry Burns, Scotland's chief medical officer, said: "Outbreaks in Scotland in recent months have occurred in communities where MMR uptake is low." -- ProMED-mail |

Eruptive diseases are good for the immune system. They help the body
detoxify. Care should be taken not to suppress the fever, not to let the patient catch a cold and that diet is very simple and plain. In no case is the eruptions to be suppressed. Jag.

wrote in message ups.com... Eruptive diseases are good for the immune system. You can get the same benefits, that is immunity to a disease, through vaccination with very little risk, no days off from school and work. And isn't smallpox an erruptive disease? That is not good for the immune system. They help the body detoxify. Name the specific toxins released by the body. Please don't include vomiting and diarrhea. These will come out anyway, although more slowly, if one doesn't have measles. Care should be taken not to suppress the fever, If a child is immunized, there won't be a fever. not to let the patient catch a cold I thought colds were good for the immune system. Besides, with the vaccine, there is no measles illness. It sounds like the disease is worse that you let on. and that diet is very simple and plain. In no case is the eruptions to be suppressed. With vaccines, no dietary changes are needed. And there are no erruptions to worry about. Jeff Jag.

Lies, fearmongering get the real story http://www.whale.to/vaccines/measles.html How do you explain that the kids who are getting measles weren't vaccinated and those who are staying healthy were vaccinated? Please don't give us crap about diet and nutrition and living conditions. The parents who are taken in by the antivaccine crap are often better educated than those who aren't taken in. Jeff |
