resurrectionist,
I don't know if anyone here will argue that most vaccinations programs have had an associated decline in the disease. Arguably, the diseases showed there was a decline before the vaccine was introduced (eg polio). However, there is no known scientific study out there that proves without any doubt that ANY vaccine is safe in either short or long term. A decreased exposure to environmental toxins is a poor argument for the increase in atopic disorders. In fact, the opposite is true. We have more environemental toxins than ever. The relationship between vaccines and atopic disorders must be examined and has already been shown to have a correlation.
