After getting Cancer I wonder if he'll think twice about getting vaccinated again (or his wife probably won't let him).

BEHAR: Well first of all, someone want to know there`s a rumor that your kids did not get flu shots or swine flu shots is that right? OZ: That`s true, they did not. BEHAR: Do you not believe in them for the kids or what? OZ: No, I would have vaccinated my kids but you know I - I`m in a happy marriage and my wife who makes most of the important decisions as most couples have in their lives. BEHAR: Yes. OZ: Who absolutely refuses. And listen the kids are pretty healthy. We actually think two of them caught swine flu very early on anyway. So there`s no point vaccinating them again. And you know - BEHAR: What do you, on that same subject, what do you think about this controversy that`s going around about vaccinations and autism and other little things that happens to kids? OZ: I think kids like the canary and the coal mine. That they are more susceptible to some of the toxins maybe our generation was able to overcome. That`s why we have a lot more allergies now. Perhaps one of the reason why we have more autism. But I don`t think it`s just the vaccine. BEHAR: No. OZ: Although, I don`t want to ignore the potential role they have. So what we do with our kids is we spread the vaccine out. BEHAR: Right, so why don`t the doctors just do that? OZ: It`s a lot more expensive and kids fall through the cracks. BEHAR: Yes. OZ: It`s hard enough to get in there once a year for the shots and imagine if you have to bring them in every other month. And those two factors are a big issue. BEHAR: I see. OZ: Plus, we have no evidence at all, Joy, none, that they actually cause autism. BEHAR: Right. OZ: And a lot of doctors very reasonably say, listen, why you want to spend more money, cause more hardship for the kids and their families, if we don`t think it`s really a problem. But you know if you want to be cautious, you can do what we did. So GBTG, Dr. Oz says "we have no evidence at all" that vaccines cause autism. What say you to that? Also he mentions that if he wants to stay married he can't overrule his nutcase wife on the flu shots, but he wanted to get them. |

Sure he recommends you do what Big Pharm tells you but what does he do with his kids: He doesnt follow the vaccine schedule because he knows its dangerous (we don’t even know if he even gets his kids all the recommended vaccines). He doesn’t get them the flu vaccines because he knows there dangerous. ]Dr. Oz is no an idiot. He realizes vaccines play a role in causing Autism which is part of the reason he spreads them out for his kids. He even states "OZ: I think kids like the canary and the coal mine. That they are more susceptible to some of the toxins maybe our generation was able to overcome. That`s why we have a lot more allergies now. Perhaps one of the reason why we have more autism. But I don`t think it`s just the vaccine.” Then he contradicts himself and says we have “no evidence”. Clearly there most be some evidence otherwise he won’t be spreading the vaccines out for his kids and saying things like “Perhaps one of the reason why we have more autism”. Of course there’s lots of evidence vaccines cause Autism, just open your eyes

No we don't. The CDC tried to fund a study but it turned out to fruadulent. And even it it was true it didnt prove vaccines don't cause autism only that mercury doesnt.

You've been shouting that for a while but you've never had a reliable source for it.
When will you stop spreading falsehoods? |

Its a fact vaccines contribute to Autism (unless you're a total Sheepe). VEARS has been paying out $Millions$ of dollars to familys of kids would became Autistic due to vaccination. You dont hear about it much because they're told to keep quiet but now they're speaking out. Currently, there are nearly 5,000 pending cases of regressive autism following vaccination that have been filed in the VICP. The cases are being handled in a group referred to as “Omnibus Hearings.” In the past, the program has awarded compensation to children who suffered a brain inflammation/encephalopathy after receiving DPT or DTaP vaccine and suffered permanent brain damage, including autism.

Anything less than a peer-reviewed study showing a strong link between vaccination and autism will be considered as such. |
