Vax Facts is a one-stop-shop for all the information parents and guardians need to make an informed choice about childhood vaccinations. The challenge for most who are wrestling with whether to give a vaccine is a lack of understanding about what information they really need to make an informed decision. Written by a pediatrician who witnessed the difference over decades in the health outcomes of the vaccinated, partially vaccinated, and unvaccinated children in his practice, Vax Facts will enlighten parents and guardians and provide the information needed for informed consent. Covering each of the vaccines recommended by the CDC and doctors, from pregnancy through the teen years, this detailed guide breaks down the ingredients, the lack of safety testing, and the side effects and risks of the vaccines. With the help of simple data tables that compare the rates of death from the diseases for which we have vaccines and the rates of death from the vaccines themselves, parents and guardians can easily decide what’s right for their children. With almost four million births per year in the United States, this useful resource will resonate with all who are pregnant or considering pregnancy, and all parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles who are considering whether vaccination is appropriate for a family member or loved one. At the end of each chapter, Just a Mom (coauthor DeeDee Hoover) shares personal stories and reflections that allow readers to connect with the information. This information-packed guide is for all those asking “Should I get my child vaccinated?” who want more than just a yes/no answer. After reading Vax Facts , parents and guardians will be able to decide with confidence whether vaccination is the right choice for their loved one. Review: Excellent Book! - This is an excellent book, I can't praise it highly enough. I recently had two grandbabies born. One set of parents refused all vaccines, and continues to do so. The other parent (a single parent) gets most of them. When I did some research, I found out that throughout childhood the CDC 's recommended vaccine schedule is over 80 vaccines! Compare this to when my children were small, there was only about 3 or 4. Dr. Thomas is not anti vaccine, he is for parental informed consent. This means parents are informed of the risks of a particular vaccine, and also the risks when it is not taken. Then the parents decide. This is how it should be. But most doctors today just go by the CDC's schedule of vaccines, which by the way, has not been tested! Many, or most, doctors today aren't aware of the harmful adverse affects of vaccines, especially over time. In medical school, they are taught to just go along with what the CDC says. They aren't even shown what's in the vaccines! I highly recommend this book to parents, would be parents, and older adults as well because he gives information about vaccines recommended for adults too. All his information is data gathered by him throughout his 30+ years of being a practicing pediatrician. He has references he has used from other sources too, which he lists in the back of the book. This book can be read from beginning to end, or you can skip around because each chapter can stand alone. I couldn't put it down. So informative. Vaccines are all about profit for the CDC and big Pharma. Many are given even when the risk of the disease is no longer present. The Hep B vaccine is given to newborns, even though it is only spread by dirty needles, having sexual partners, or through the mother if she has it. And hospitals check all mothers for it and give them the vaccine. So why would a newborn need it? It's about following the money trail. I highly commend Dr. Thomas for speaking out on what he has found. Shame on big pharma, the CDC, and all the other businesses who make a profit from vaccinating our precious children. They don't deal with the consequences, we do! Autism, ADHD, respiratory problems, and the list goes on of diseases that have skyrocketed since in 1986 the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act was passed that gave all pharmaceutical companies immunity from accountability and responsibility for any adverse results from their so called vaccines. Right after that an explosion of vaccines started being produced and recommended by the CDC, which is, in Dr. Thomas' opinion, only interested in creating repeat customers. I could go on and on, but read this book for yourself. Once you become aware of what's really going on, you cannot un know it Dr. Paul, as he likes to be called, is on you tube also, you can listen to his message. I can't praise him high enough! Review: Sceptic to believer - Amazing read. I have a masters and have always trusted science and professionals and research- so it felt like a given to blindly trust vaccines but I started questioning things when I was pregnant with my first child. This book has been an amazing resource and I say that if you’re judgmental of non vaxxers, please read dr Paul’s books because your mind will be changed!

Title: He calculated the risks of getting the disease vs the vaccine
I am a retired RN who used to believe in vaccination because we were taught in nursing school to keep kids “up to date” (and that’s about it). We were not taught to treat vaccines like other drugs, that is, to know the ingredients in the drug, the contraindications and warnings, the possible side effects, the correct dosage for a person’s age and weight, and to report and treat adverse reactions when they occur. I was shocked during covid at what I found out when I began to research vaccines. I still find it hard to believe that the drug profiteers have propagandized the public for so long. Most of the information mentioned above can be found on the package insert of each vaccine, but we as nurses were never told to read them (doctors aren’t either). Dr. Thomas tells you where you can find all the information that I found out on my own, but he distills it down in a user-friendly, readable way. A few of the most disturbing Vaxx Facts: 1) Vaccines are not properly safety tested 2) they have ingredients like mercury and aluminum that can cause neurological and other damage 3) they can and do cause deaths especially in infants, at a higher rate than the vaccine targeted diseases. One of the really valuable things he did in my opinion was to numerically calculate the risks of each vaccine-targeted disease, then compared it to the risks of getting the vaccine for that disease. For instance, what is the risk of your infant getting Hepatitis B? Answer: there is ZERO risk for babies born to Hep-B negative moms. Then he tells you the risks for babies given the Hep B vaccine: they are at higher risk for liver problems, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, allergic rhinitis, asthma, and allergies, and other diseases. Many of the vaccine-targeted diseases like diphtheria virtually disappeared before vaccines ever came out due to better sanitation and living conditions. So why take the risks inherent in vaccination when the diseases they target are either very rare nowadays, or are mild and self- limiting? Dr. Thomas’s book is one of the best books on vaccines (and more and more books are coming out) because it is well- organized, well referenced, yet easy to understand for the non-scientist. Everyone should be aware of Vaxx-Facts!

This book is very informative and they only use real statistics and data. The actual book is printed on a high quality paper back that shouldn’t wear super easy.

Must read if expecting or plan to get pregnant is best (as it touches abit of antenatal vaccines
If you’re a concern mom, especially with the rates of autism or developmental issues we face these days with children - this is a must read! Read the other book Dr Paul wrote as well. The book provides actual statistical data (graphs so ease to understand). I got the paperback because Im traditional and enjoy the feeling of flipping the pages. Quality of front cover page is nice smooth/paper suede type? pages are thick wont tear easily.

Great Resource for Parents
Written by a physician, this book breaks down the risks/benefits regarding vaccination by the specific shot in question. A great resource for parents wondering if, when, and how many vaccines their children should receive.

Best read ever. Changed and saved my family
Such an informative and great book. I have all my mom friends read it before having a baby. I wish I read it sooner. That and The Real Anthony Fauci, and Turtles All the Way Down. This one is what really got me going tho. Dr Paul Thomas makes it easy to understand. He does push you to make a decision but gives you the facts that our corrupt world has been hiding from us. The truth is coming out. Get behind it before your child is affected.

Very straight forward read
I liked the book, it's a very straight forward read. The sections make it easy to navigate the book. I've started following Dr Paul after this book and he is great! I'm so happy to stumbled across this book. I have 3 books on childhood vaccines and this one has been the easiest to read and digest for a person with zero madical background.

What everyone needs to know before vaxxing at any age.
Dr Paul is the most knowledgeable paediatrician on the planet. He had 15,000 children in his practice, some fully vaxxed, some partially vaxxed and many completely unvaxxed. So he had a fantastic database of the risks and benefits of vaxxing. And the clear winners were the unvaxxed, by a mile. By every milestone you can think of, the unvaxxed were the healthiest. A very easy read, not at all difficult for those without a medical background. Just buy it and read it.

Must have for parents-to-be

Muy útil
La información que está en el libro en su mayoría está disponible gratis en Youtube porque el doctor habla de todo esto en sus vídeos. O sea, si has visto sus entrevistas, no vas a encontrar mucha información nueva en el libro. Pero está bien tener un libro para tener toda la información en el mismo sitio.
