Why Do Babies Get So Many Vaccines?

One viewer writes, “Children receive 72 vaccines between birth and age 18 and that’s just sickening! And there is NO reason a newborn needs the Hep B vaccine.” ER physician Dr. Travis Stork shares this is an important thing to address for parents – why do we receive so many, so early. Infectious disease expert Dr. Ravina Kullar shares that we actually receive 13 vaccines to fight 16 diseases between birth and age 18, and we’re so lucky to be able to have resources to fight them off.

Paul Thomas MD, an Oregon pediatrician who had a practice with a large number of unvaccinated or under-vaccinated children, and (like many of the other practices with similar patient populations) noticed that the unvaccinated children had dramatically better health. So, he decided to compare their medical records to those of variably vaccinated children and published the data in a study (which, as you are not supposed to violate that embargo,  cost him his medical license and resulted in the study being retracted for spurious reasons).

I don’t see why doctors can’t simply answer concerns instead of calling people conspiracy theorists. I was born in the 80s and I had about 7 vaccines before the age of 5. My children are expected to have 27 vaccines by that age? I don’t see why I should be called a anti vax or conspiracy person because I find that alarming. Growing up my generation was healthy, no one in my age group died or had allergies. Autism and ADHD was also a lot less common

The idea that the STATE cares more about your child than you is pure blasphemy.

Who really believes the STATE cares for your child. They absolutely do not.

"Vaccines are the one thing that Healthcare does right." I bet he eats his words now that all the COVID vaccine issues are coming to light.

I am confused….the woman says ;a child is “exposed to over 200 antigens a day” and then follows that with “our immune system is so powerful to fight off these antigens…”so then why should a child be vaccinated with one specific antigen if nature is already providing a plethora of exposure?

This is a true question…I don’t understand the benefit.

15 vaccines is still too many for a newborn

Why are children far more unhealthy today than when I was a child in the 60's, if these vaccines are so effective?

You can tell who thinks for themselves and who lets other people think for them.

WHY were there so many lawsuits ? Are you kidding me ?

[K]

Y'all arent being 100 percent with us

[mtsquash]

The last lady speaking about how there were so many lawsuits against the manufacturers and liabilities that the government had to step in. Yeah great argument.

My baby's have gotten 0 and are perfectly healthy.

It's a very dangerous time to be a baby or child... A 7 month baby in my social circles today is critical in a hospital after getting a cluster of shots... the parents are cornered into doing it because they wouldn't allow the baby in to daycare unless they did... Now the baby is suffering immensely and the parents too... All the seventh month baby needs in their system is their mother's milk.

God made our immune system perfect without poison ☠️

Imagine these vaccines were meant to make us live shorter lifetime. In reality we were meant to live much longer 😳

[toyamoniquecoleman]

They didn’t answer the question why so early? They questioned why do infants getting them so early... Answer the question! They simply said they were good. Learn from Japan America!

Hep B is something people get through sexual contact and sharing needles…babies don’t do that in the womb lol

[brucefly]

Thank you for conspiracy theorist propaganda The Doctors, I don't believe a thing you said.

[juliathelittle]

I think she said the quiet part out loud. If the companies making vaccines were held responsible they would not make vaccines. Exactly!

[JJconcrete]

I'm getting ready to have my first baby and I am so worried about vaccines that they want to give my child, there has been so much attention around child vaccinations and autism. There's actually safe ways to take vaccines for children if you spread them out this would be an obvious compromise, but vaccine pushers will not compromise because they will have to admit guilt.
