Childhood immune system diseases (arthritis, cancer, diabetes, autism) has been on the upswing. It used to be kids only got a few vaccinations. They are now being shot up many more times in the first few months of life. Kids that are fed the usual garbage diet will suffer more during illness. Many times it's the treatment during disease that causes long term problems. Many of the long polio victims (permanent paralysis) were given aspirin to bring down fevers. Polio also went away at the same rate in countries that did not use vaccines. My 3 children were given ZERO vaccinations. They got chicken pox and a few others. They were given no medication and when the disease ran its course they seemed healthier than before. I was also not vaccinated, in the 60s that was radical. -Gawen
