[FLPERMACULTURE] Fwd: New York Trying to Make ALL Vaccines Mandatory!

[Bethany Schroeder]

The use of antibacterial soap and immunizing against diseases as
devastating as TB are simply not the same thing. I agree that we
overprotect ourselves with obsessive cleansing of our own surfaces and
those of our surroundings, and I also believe that we overuse
antibiotics, something Garrett and others have written about, too.

I do hope the people on this listserv will do some homework before
deciding against immunizations. I, for one, look forward to getting a
vaccine against shingles, available just within the last few years. I am
too old to have been vaccinated against varicella (chicken pox) as a 
child and therefore stand a pretty good chance of contracting the sequel 
to varicella, otherwise known as shingles.

It is a widespread thought that auto-immune diseases such as type-1 diabetes, and other health problems such as asthma occur in more people now because as our environments become more sterile, we become used to it until one aspect hits us that we weren't immune to.
