And I have a difficult time with this part of vaccination (NON) logic...
Typical example:
Tetanus..
Vaccine theory says that they jab you with some dead or weakened bug, and your body develops a future resistance to said bug. The vaccine is not an "anti-tetanus" drug which kills tetanus, like penicillin kills bacteria.
If I get a cut on my hand that requires stitches, I go to the Dr. and get sewed up. They then give me a Tetanus vaccine shot, to prevent me from coming down with tetanus...
HUH?
But if I have tetanus in my cut, why give me more tetanus now? If my body is already in full gear fighting the tetanus that I might have, why add to the problem now?
Good grief.

Quoting: Trained Noticer I agree with you to a point.
However, with the Tetanus vaccine...it is given as you know to build up an immunity to the C.tetani bacterium.
It is is said that of those who develop symptoms 50% will die. There is no antibiotic that will effectively cure you.
While there are some that kill it, doing so will still produce the toxin. (Which is was causes tetanus) So the idea is to build up your immunity to prevent the growth of the organism in the first place.
The issue, I have with the vaccine is all the added preservatives (Thimerosol, Formalin, etc.) and agents.
I also have an issue with physicians telling you that when you cut yourself you need a tetanus vaccine. If the wound is open such as from a laceration. The C. tetani bacterium will not develop as it needs a low oxygen environment (anaerobic).
