[Gocamino] query about immunization

[Tania A Heinemann]

"In other words, they have strong opinions which are different
than the views of most medical professionals."

vran.org is a non-profit Canadian organization that informs people of 
vaccination choices.  They also list the ingredients in vaccinations --  
which in my opinion, is extremely important information to know when being 
injected!

I just ask that people ask questions and do their research and not listen to 
only one source of information -- there are many many risks associated with 
vaccinations and many other ways to stay healthy while travelling.  I would 
be happy to share information like grapefruit seed extract for water 
purification and keeping a healthy digestive tract, probotics, and the like.
