5.0 out of 5 stars Dr. Tenpenny's DVD on Vaccines is a Must-see, March 18, 2005

This review is from: Vaccines: The Risks, The Benefits, The Choices (DVD)

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny's DVD called Vaccines - The Risks, The Benefits, The Choices, could well be the best example of "concise-vaccine-information-all-in-one-place" that you can find, because she does such an excellent job of explaining and documenting her research. She does it in an interesting way and answers vital questions, some of which you probably haven't yet thought to ask.

First she describes the reasons for the decline of infectious disease. She clearly shows how most infectious diseases declined prior to mass vaccination and how statistics have been manipulated to make vaccines appear to be the reason for the decline. She talked first about smallpox, then polio.

She details the massive increase in the vaccination schedule for our children, explaining why the number of vaccine antigens a child receives is what should be considered, rather than simply the number of injections he receives. For example, if a child receives all the vaccines that are recommended, they will have 95 vaccine antigens injected into their system by the time they start kindergarten. Perhaps this is the largest contributor to the poor health of our children today.

Risks of the so called "vaccine-preventable" diseases are compared to the risks of the vaccines. You may be surprised at what you learn!! She carefully explains why antibodies, created by vaccination can start to attack the tissues of the body when there are no infectious agents in the system to neutralize. Examples she gave included how mass vaccination may be contributing to diseases such as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, Type I diabetes, and Kawasaki disease through an immunological process called "molecular mimicry."

The second half of the DVD discusses in detail, each of the following vaccines: smallpox, polio, hepatitis B, pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, Hib (Hemophilus influenza type b), Prevnar, chickenpox, measles, mumps, rubella, influenza, meningitis (for college students), RSV and a brief overview of the travel vaccines. She mentions the many vaccines which are in the "pipeline", including many vaccines for adolescents for sexually-transmitted diseases.

The four types of school exemptions to vaccination are then discussed.

Dr. Tenpenny's DVD is extremely helpful to anyone wanting to understand the risks of vaccination and the choices they need to make to protect from diseases.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most comprehensive vaccine documentary available, August 7, 2005

This review is from: Vaccines: The Risks, The Benefits, The Choices (DVD)

The controversy surrounding the national public health policy of mass and mandated vaccinations is beginning to reach a fevered pitch, supercharged by the emotions of parents whose children are severely damaged or were killed by adverse reactions to vaccines. While our emotions give us the passion to stand for what we know to be right, knowledge is what gives us the authority to take a firm stand.
Vaccines: The Risks, The Benefits, The Choices is an extremely informative and well-organized three-hour presentation by Sherri Tenpenny, DO, that takes us into the "salt mines"-published science and government documents-to prove that there is no data to support current policies with regard to vaccination. Dr. Tenpenny, a highly-respected and classically-trained physician, dedicated over 6,000 hours to exhaustively researching the history of vaccination, the conflicts of interest propelling CDC vaccination recommendations and the science proving vaccines are neither safe nor effective.
This presentation is the most comprehensive overview of the topic available from a qualified professional. Vaccines: The Risks, The Benefits, The Choices gives concerned parents the foundation needed to further their research so they can make the only informed choice, complete avoidance and refusal; and will cause even the most indoctrinated physicians to question the practice of routinely vaccinating their youngest patients.
Tenpenny covers little known smallpox and polio history; each vaccine that is on the current CDC's Recommended Childhood Immunization Schedule; and closes with the exemption laws in each state followed by the importance of parents standing up for their most fundamental of rights - the right to protect their children from potential harm.

This review is from: Vaccines: The Risks, The Benefits, The Choices (DVD)

I was on the fence on whether to vaccinate my son due to all the media hype on vaccines, mercury, etc. Our pediatrician scared us about the risk of not vaccinating, especially with whooping cough, so we were leaning towards at least getting the DTaP vaccine. Well after we saw the video, our minds were made up. Definitely no to vaccines. I am so grateful that this information is out there. It is amazing how the FDA has approved all these vaccines, however, continue to pull other drugs off the market that are causing harm due to the side effects. I'm sorry but, aren't our children important too? Hope this helps, I encourage you to get this DVD. At least have both sides of the story before making a choice.
