I've been thinking about this idea of nearly all allergies coming from injections. My mother didn't want to believe her numerous allergies could have come from vaccines because she hardly remembered receiving any but I realized she was born after they started the DPT shots.

In recent years, we discovered my wife has a severe allergy to cochineal aka Red 40 (an insect-derived food dye). When she was a child, she had a bad reaction to a vaccine and her mother made sure she never got other vaccines. We did foolishly decide to get one round of flu shots (before covid) and she also got RhoGAM shots on the advice of her OB/GYN when she was pregnant. Now I wonder how she became sensitized to the exotic insect protein. Food dye shouldn't be in any of those injections. Was it an analogous protein in one of those? The RhoGAM shots seem to contain actual antibodies from donors, could that have transferred an allergy from the donor to her? This particular allergy has shown up sufficiently in recent years that there was an effort to require the particular dye to be on food labels.

I personally had an allergy to some molds from a young age. I wonder if I received a mold contaminated vaccine? At any rate, I now have numerous allergies that I developed during adulthood that I am nearly certain came from the military vaccine schedule.

Judging by my family, there seems to be a considerable genetic component to how likely a person is to develop allergies. No one should be getting vaccines but especially no one who has a parent that has any allergies should get an injection of any sort if possible.

EDIT: I wonder if dentist's anesthesia injections can sometimes cause an allergy to develop despite their lack of something like adjuvants to aggravate the immune system? Certainly that would be a candidate for introducing a food dye into the bloodstream.

According to research, allergens are:

(1) foreign (amino acids, peptides, proteins, bacteria, fungi, pollen, drugs, etc.)

(2) even if allergens are different, if there are similar parts (molecules), cross-reactions can cause allergy or anaphylaxis.

(3) If a substance similar to the internal chemicals involved in the onset of allergy enters the body, it can cause a reaction similar to allergy.

(4) Haptens are substances that do not directly produce antibodies but bind to proteins and become antigen-like, reacting with existing antibodies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapten

Anyway, even researchers have a lot of unknowns, so I think it's better not to put unnecessary things into the blood unless they are related to immediate life.
