There are those who say, "Immunizations are a sneaky way to mass sterilize the population of the world."
Those are not my words. I am not sure who "They" are who start the rumors.

To be honest, I take everything with a grain of salt. When you have big pot of good information, you have to know there may be something toxic all stired up with healthy stuff, too. Or, there could be one good thing covering up the 99% toxic. We have to be informed and be aware.
I can gather some url of links by those who warn against immunizations, claiming they will mass sterilize, prevent people from having babies. I can not and will not say this is happening or not. But, I feel all parents do need to be aware that many sources are throwing this possible myth into the confusing pot of toxic stone soup.
Be fully informed about the diseases immunizations are meant to prevent and the side effects of those immunizations BEFORE consenting for your children to be vaccinated.
Try to sort fact from the fiction. Or is it the other way around?
Rumors, gossip, and myths are just that. There maybe some basis, but by the time a rumor, gossip or myth has gone from one person to the next, to the next, to the next...
Like old game of telephone where one person whispers a phrase or sentence in the ear of the person next to him and that person whispers to the next and the next and then next....
Most often when the last person repeats what he heard outloud, the results are very far from what the origional phrase was. In this game of telephone because the end result was NOT accurate, does it mean that someone lied?
Probably not.
I think this may be a simple explanation at the heart of the immunization controversy.
That is my opinion.
One reporter's take on Bill Gates, immunzations and sterilization...
Bill Gates, polio vaccines and sterilisation myths ? why do they persist?

I do hope you take the time to click on the link to read the post I shared right above. That is the author's interpretation about a statement Bill Gates had made and an incident where immunization workers had been shot to death over it. People believed what may or may not be the myth that the immunizations were intended to prevent their children from bearing children in the future.
I live in the United States. While I read a lot and take an interest in learning about other cultures, quite frankly, I am sure I don't always fully undertand what it would be like to live in any other country or continent. Therefore, I can not judge anyone else for their choices. American parents do seem to be listening and chosing to not immunize their children.
Not so child- like diseases are coming back to do great harm. Young parents can not seem to fathom the devasting effects of these diseases.
History lesson
In case anyone forgot, from the beginning of time famlies needed to have many children, yes needed many familiy members in order to survive.
- Mothers and/or babies died in childbirth
- Many children never grew to adulthood
- Many hands make light work: the more children you had the easier the work load in food production for everyone. Improved economics for the family. Perhaps, even wealth.
- Safety in numbers
I have to admit that I am kind of slow about catching on to the facts of life stuff unless some one breaks it down and tells me. I never figured it out on my own. For example...
- In times of war men are far away. When men are far away at war the rate of birth in population decreases.
Men are not home to be having sexual intercourse that will make more babies in the women at home. There I said it. My mother used to say, "The only thing you need to know about sex is if you don't want to get pregnant, don't be doing it."
Feel free to laugh...
I spent my middle school and high school years worrying that I might being doing it , whatever it was, get pregnant with an illegitmate baby and forever be scorned in my community. And what of a baby, an innocent baby that did nothing worng?
Not much of this made sense to me at all. I know I am not the only one who has experienced confusion on what the birds and bees had to do with anything.
Myth: Birth control in something new.
Methods of family planning have been around for longer than we know, even condoms and IUD's.
I read once that middle eastern camel hurders dicovered that olive pits stuck into the vagina of a camel was the first IUD. I guess there was need for family planing with camels.
They made condoms out of sheep gutts or some such thing. When ever people figured out, without sex ed or Sex for Dum-dum's self help manuals, what this doing it created, even though they needed big families, at times it would not be prudent to be making a new baby, that may or may not survive. (Take breathe!)
Don't do IT!
In the 1970's when I knew what it was all about, I learned that in many under-developed countries helpful medical people gave out the new birth control pill. (Few lie birth menas few children dying anddying of preventable dieases by get immunized.)
That went over like a lead balloon.
It seemed that many women were not that interested in remembering to faithfully take the pill every day. Why not save time a take 2 or 3 on one day? I was not there, so I am guessing.
I was 20 years old and single when I was about to graduate from nursing school then get married in 1972.
I did not understand why people had sex knowing they could be making a new baby, especially if the family was starving to death already. Remembering that my mother had said, "If you don't want to get pregant don't do it," to not being having sex made perfect responcible, naive sense to me.
Duh? I had to ask.
Apparently, in times of stress, people need a form of escape from the harsh reality. Having sex is a relief that cost nothing in the moment. If alcohol, or some kind of drug is available that will induce a high, people will turn to the use of substances. That goes with out saying that sexual realtionships, for the most part, is normal and healthy for aduts in a commited relationship.
While I personally did not find this logical, seeking relief from pain and suffering is a natural thing for any living being, I was told. (I get it now.)
Now, that I got that information under my belt I get it why starving and oppressed people continue to make babies. Sexaul relations is a neccesary and normal part of living.We all need intimacy in order to survive.
Pulling to gether the relevance of immunizations and sterilization:
Let me tell you this is tough one for me to pull together. This subject is awkward.
Perhaps reading the article I suggested above will have already cleared it for you.
Looking at countries where they have drought, famine and oppressive leadership where they still have preventable diseases killing their dear children, having sex and making babies is a God given right in most people's mind as musch as being able to breathe fresh air for free. But some greedy elite groups do not agree.
Disease, its crippling effects and death are a never ending circle unless interrupted by wiping out those disease with an innoculation. For most parents, we all want our children to survive. When families are used to children dying we all have an inborn need to keep the family alive. The solution would seem to have more babies that may survive to carry on the family unit. this is natural and who are we to judge?
Why would they want anyone to come in to their community to destroy the future of their family's survival by forcing vaccines on them, then, IF they would affect the surval of the family unit?
(And, I want to see the terrible diseases wiped out.)
It does not matter where you live in the world, human beings do not want someone else forcing their will on their right to life for their family. If you were told truthfully or lied to that immunzations that could save your child's life but would cause your famiy name/ unit to die out, how would you feel?
I would feel the need to do something. That is why I am pulling together are kinds of views whether I believe them to be fact or not. I simply do not have enough information to tell you one or the other is fact or fiction. The newest vaccines hav NOT been tested long enough to know for sure one way or the other. Statistics can always be twisted for the view point. And, why is that?
Summary
Parents of the world have big decisions to make for the children, everyday. At times, the choices we make can be life threatening. When information is all thrown into a pot with good, bad and toxic even the good ingredients can become contaminated.
World Health Organizations have been working for decades/ generations to wipe out diseases. Ideally, the cure is a safe alternative to the devasting effects of measles, smallpox, diptheria, polio and more.
As responcible adults, we do have to question everything in the best interests of our children. We can be swayed by images of children in advertisements. We then question if we made the right decision or not. Or, we might join a band wagon based on hysteria.
I really don't believe that every bit of information/ propoganda is accurate. Do you? How did you feel when you saw the image I used above?
