Hi, I am Dawn Guzmann, and I grew up<br />
in a time where autism was the new medical<br />
condition to worry about, as more<br />
and more people were being diagnosed<br />
with autism than ever before. I have always<br />
believed in vaccinations, and I<br />
have always gotten them, as I know the<br />
value that they have for me and even<br />
other people. I received the vaccinations<br />
that contained everything from thimerosal<br />
to iron, even as an infant, and I am<br />
healther now because of it. People in my<br />
community were also resolute 38 on receiving<br />
vacccinations, so the effect that<br />
they had on curbing the spreading of<br />
diseases were great. Without the communities<br />
shared belief in the health benefits<br />
that come from vaccinations viruses<br />
and diseases would be wreaking havoc<br />
on the people, making everyone sick.<br />
Vaccinations work best when everyone<br />
gets them, and I also experienced this<br />
firsthand, as a town about 20 minutes<br />
out from ours who are discordant 39 with<br />
us on vaccines, and alleged 40 that they<br />
would only hurt them and do no good<br />
whatsoever to us. Although there was<br />
a modicum 41 handful of people who<br />
did receive vaccinations, and even they<br />
were counfounded 42 when they did not<br />
work for most of them. This is because<br />
the community does indeed play a role<br />
in whether or not someone is going to<br />
get a disease. They were not able to gain<br />
immmunity as there was an outbreak of<br />
the disease within the community. This is<br />
excactly the reason as to who I believe in<br />
vaccinations and explain the very same<br />
thing to my friends who do not believe in<br />
A Viewers Story<br />
vaccinations. The information throughout<br />
this magazine has helped me even further<br />
expand my knowledge that I had<br />
obtained from other sources before this,<br />
and solidified other information as truth<br />
by repeating it.<br />
My name is Kelly Conniff, and I am someone<br />
that whishes that this magazine were<br />
to have come out years ago, because I<br />
feel that it could have caused me to go<br />
through a lot less pain and suffereing as<br />
I was deterred 43 from getting vaccinated.<br />
As I grew up, I was not lucky enough to<br />
have parents that were educated enough<br />
in vaccination areas, and nor could they<br />
afford them at times. If they knew what<br />
information I have now, I know that many<br />
of the diseases that I suffered through as<br />
a child would not have been because of<br />
vaccinations. My parents thought that<br />
they were bad for us so they stayed<br />
away from them at all costs. Because of<br />
this magazine, I am spreading the word<br />
of the benefits of vaccines, and am vaccinating<br />
my children whenever a new one<br />
comes out. I would do anything for my<br />
children, and giving them these vaccinations<br />
allows for them to live a much happier<br />
and healthier life that is almost 100%<br />
disease free. I am now aware of the time<br />
and effort that goes into perfecting the<br />
design of each vaccine so that they are<br />
the most effective that they can be and<br />
so that they do not cause the person who<br />
is receiving the vaccine to become sick.<br />
