I'll try to post some things this weekend - my week is hell.
If doing your own digging look up aluminum content in vaccines.

Please, spare yourself the effort. I took the time to read ONE thing and this is already the dumbest scary story about vaccines I've ever heard...and I've heard most of them.
But I'll tell you what, since you're not giving babies vaccines due to aluminum, please
be sure to also not feed them. No formula and DEFINITELY no breast milk. Here's why (link below):
The aluminum contained in vaccines is similar to that found in a liter (about 1 quart or 32 fluid ounces) of infant formula. While infants receive about 4.4 milligrams*[/B] of aluminum in the first six months of life from vaccines, they receive more than that in their diet.
Breast-fed infants ingest about 7 milligrams, formula-fed infants ingest about 38 milligrams, and infants who are fed soy formula ingest almost 117 milligrams of aluminum during the same period.
*[/B]Note: One milligram is one-thousandth of a gram. One gram is the weight of one-fifth of a teaspoon of water.
It's also naturally occurring in the blood of both mother and baby during and after pregnancy. If you think aluminum is scary, then the only hope for you is basically to starve to death, because it's found in just about everything you would ever eat or drink.
Here's my statement for everyone who is against vaccines:
If you can't understand why it's stupid and wrong to be anti-vaccine, don't try. I won't try to convert you, I'll just tell you to shut up. Why, you ask?
Well, turns out we have research on that, too. It's been shown that most of the time, you cannot convert an anti-vaxxer. The more facts you put in their face, the more they retreat in to circular reasoning, fear, paranoia and defiance. So I don't expect you to admit that you're wrong, and you are. But don't try to make other people be stupid and wrong with you, because when you do that, it literally kills babies.
So go be quiet. You're not exposing an evil plot, the rest of us are not sheep, you're just wrong. The way in which you are choosing to be wrong causes suffering and death.
I'm a bit surprised it took this long to turn up a few people who have no idea how science works. Just stop. Your opinion is not valid and you're not entitled to it.
