Vaccines cause cancer? Now that's a new one.

[Knight]

Oh sweet 8 pound 7 ounce baby Jesus I just can't.

I like how most of them are, "don't be a dumbass, vaccinate"

Not entirely. I think there was a vaccine given decades ago (polio?) that did correlate with higher cancer rates once the recipients were older. But if course correlation is not causation. And I don't know the scale of the increase.

That's not what the poster was arguing.

Huh. I guess the WHO is a big fat liar then, hm?

Hepatitis B prevalence is highest in sub-Saharan Africa and East Asia. Most people in these regions become infected with the hepatitis B virus during childhood and between 5–10% of the adult population is chronically infected.

In highly endemic areas, HBV is most commonly spread from mother to child at birth, or from person to person in early childhood. Perinatal or early childhood transmission may also account for more than one third of chronic infections in areas of low endemicity, although in those settings, sexual transmission and the use of contaminated needles, especially among injecting drug users, are the major routes of infection.

One of the polios. I think it was the oral polio (not given in the US anymore) was infected with SV-40 there was some concern that the virus could cause tumorigenesis. The stocks for that were done with in the 60s. The last paper I read on it years ago - there was inadequate data to establish a yes or no 40 years after the fact.


Haven't seen anything with HepB vax causing cancer.

I really wish people knew that herpes zoster (chicken pox) is NOT herpes simplex (you know... herpes.)

As for the other stuff... hawtgawtdamn, people are stupid!

[Norticprincess]

Okay after reading part of that I need to find a brickwall to bash my head against. Formaldehyde is produced in the body

The poster was going for this:

Fermaldyhyde (sp?) is a cancer causing agent.

Fermaldahyde is in vaccines.

Therefore vaccines cause cancer.

Well, yeah. Duh.

[taratru]

Why do their answers always start with "I did my own research"?

No. No, you didn't.

I commented the first time without reading the post, just in the sv40

The head into brick wall to stop the stupidity was after I read the thread.

I always wish these people would site their research.

LOL that you think these people have research to cite.
