Episode 036: Immunization, Vaccinations – Is It What You Think It Is?

With a politically charged topic like vaccinations it can be hard to get accurate information. Dr. Nedd has studied this area in depth and is going to share some valuable data on this topic that any parent (or anyone planning to be a parent at some point) really does need to know. Today, Dr. Nedd will discuss:

What is immunization and what are vaccinations, and why those terms shouldn’t be used interchangeably.
What are the additives in vaccinations and why do they increase the risk of dangerous side effects. (This one is shocking.)
Why the argument of ‘vaccines have been proven to be safe’ doesn’t apply to the current schedule/set of vaccines given to children.
The legislation concerning vaccines and the current actions to change things.
