[vaccines] how harmful are they

In researching "the new weapons for the 21st century, I began with depleted uranium weapons:

A flying rod of solid uranium 18-inches long and three-quarters of an inch in diameter," is what becomes of a DU tank round after it is fired. Because Uranium-238 is pyrophoric, meaning it burns on contact with air, DU rounds are burning as they fly.

When the DU penetrator hits an object it breaks up and causes secondary explosions. Some of the uranium vaporizes into extremely small particles, which are dispersed into the atmosphere where they remain until they fall to the ground with the rain.

As a gas, the chemically toxic and radioactive uranium can easily enter the body through the skin or the lungs and be carried around the world until it falls to earth with the rain.

... to chemical weapons:

Documents show British ministers knew in 1985 that [a] £14m plant, called Falluja 2, was likely to be used for mustard and nerve gas production. Ministers in the then Thatcher government ... gave financial backing to the British company involved, Uhde Ltd, through insurance guarantees.

Paul Channon, then trade minister, concealed the existence of the chlorine plant contract from the US administration, which was pressing for controls on such exports. He also instructed the export credit guarantee department (ECGD) to keep details of the deal secret from the public.

... and from there to vaccines. The problem with this area is that we're back to the old denial from the conglomerates and allegations from the left scenario which makes it well night impossible to get at the truth. The CDC argues for increased stockpiles of smallpox vaccine:

The U.S. stockpile of smallpox vaccine is maintained by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). These decades-old doses may be inadequate to meet the vaccination needs projected after a bioweapon incident. The number of doses needed in various scenarios has recently been discussed. In 1972, for example, a single case of smallpox in Yugoslavia required 18 million doses of vaccine to stop the spread of disease.

Yet other sources are saying something quite different:

According to the CDC, nearly half a million Americans simply "drop dead" each year from what it calls "sudden cardiac death". Americans are subjected to some 95 antigens (and their companion toxins) by the time they are five. Many experience adverse reactions that range from minor irritation, to permanent brain damage and death.

Many American children are developing chronic mental problems for which they are prescribed mood-altering drugs such as Ritalin. Many also develop chronic health problems such as asthma and cancer.

This seems to be supported in this news item:

Drug giant Eli Lilly and Company makes thimerosal. It's the mercury in the preservative that many parents say causes autism in thousands of children – like Mary Kate Kilpatrick. Asked if she thinks her daughter is a victim of thimerosal, Mary Kate's mother, Kathy Kilpatrick, says, "I think autism is mercury poisoning."

Whether or not that is so, a congressman with ties to the White House, which in turn has ties to Eli Lilly, put in a legislative provision banning possible court action against Eli Lilly. Hmmmm. This company is also tied in with the psychological mind control issue, being mentioned in various sources in researching MK Ultra and others.

If you research further, you can get into the vaccines administered in Africa:

The use of OPV was discontinued in the west because all cases of polio since the late 1960s were attributed to the vaccine. Rather than destroy remaining stocks of OPV, WHO began giving it to Africans. Curiously, the package insert for OPV cautions against giving the vaccine to people with AIDS-but, Greater Africa radio founder Kihura Nkuba observed, Africans were not screened for AIDS before being vaccinated with OPV.

The symptoms of polio are identical to chemical poisoning. No cases of polio were reported in Africa until people became exposed to chemicals (and vaccines). Polio and West Nile virus Researcher Jim West has conducted compelling historical research on this subject.

WHO recently announced a new outbreak of polio in West Africa and Central Africa. The humanitarian organization plan[ned] to vaccinate 74 million Africans by November, 2004.

Then you can get into the vaccines that are developed against bioweapons:

Ricin, which is extracted from castor beans, has a highly lethal toxicity in small doses, causing fever, nausea abdominal pain or lung damage, followed by death within a few days of exposure.

Because castor beans are readily available, ricin is easily manufactured and it is also easily aerosolised - making it all the more dangerous - however currently there is no prevention or cure for the deadly substance. "The successful development of an effective vaccine against ricin toxin may actually reduce the threat of its use as a bioterror weapon," said Robert Brey, chief scientific officer of Dor.

So where did the idea come from in the first place to extract Ricin? One name which pops up from time to time is Len Horowitz and I confess I didn't know of him so the only thing to do was google "Len Horowitz debunked" but that didn't get too many debunkings. It's a worry though that Nation of Islam supports his findings.

So the debate appears to be at a standstill - the conglomerates have smeared and the allegers have alleged.

The only anecdotal evidence I can present is that in the 80s and 90s, I was getting flu shots with the rest of the population and going down for two week bouts of influenza, one which almost finished me. At the same time, the media were constantly writing of "new resistant strains" and so on.

At some point I decided to take the risk of the flu and didn't have innoculations ever again. Since that time, I've not been laid low for any length of time due to flu or any other disease.

This has hardly been research and others have documented the issue in detail. In my first attempt at tackling this one, I'm wondering where the truth lies.
