Below is an excerpt from a CNN article discussing the Foot & Mouth outbreak in China. What bothers me is the paradox which logically makes no sense to me. The CDC declares that child's immune system is healthy enough to take the ever increasing vaccination regiment & schedule but, not healthy enough to fend off Hand, Foot & Mouth disease like an adults immune system. Thus, is it not easy for me to conclude that a child may have significant issues with fending off & building an immune system as the vaccinations are intended to do? Maybe I am ill informed but, common sense does not add up to me.



There is no treatment for severe EV-71 infections nor does a vaccine exist. Adults' well-developed immune systems usually can fend off the virus, but children are particularly vulnerable to it, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
