From the publication YOU reference!

1. Only 18 deaths reported to VAERS post HepB vax in 86 MILLION doses given:

"This review reveals 18 neonatal deaths after HepB vaccine reported to VAERS during an interval in which at least 86 million doses of pediatric HepB vaccine were distributed in the United States (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, unpublished data, 1999)."

2. No way to prove or disprove causation:

"At this time, there is no way to prove or disprove a causal relation between HepB immunization and SIDS..."

3. No increase in neonatal deaths reported post HepB immunization implementation:

"Since the 1991 Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommendation of universal HepB immunization of infants, no evidence of either an increased trend in the overall number of neonatal deaths or in neonatal deaths after HepB vaccination reported to VAERS was found. From 1985 (before universal HepB immunization of infants) to 1996, the total number of neonatal deaths in the United States decreased from 7.0 to 4.8 deaths per 1000 live births."

4. A comment about the inadvisability of using VAERS... it's predominantly a court record, not epidemiologic study evidence.

"As events reported to VAERS may be coincidental, detailed epidemiologic studies are needed for more definitive evaluation of potential causal relationships between vaccination and serious events or death."

BTW - I HOPE everyone else READS your references and makes their own conclusions. Unfortunately, some will not understand them.
