Dear Sir/Madam:

I urge the makers of vaccines to formulate and produce them without the use of cell lines taken from aborted fetuses. Many of us now avoid having our families vaccinated because of this situation. My objection to the use of material from aborted fetuses in the making of vaccines is based on my deeply-held religious belief that life is most sacred from the moment of conception; that belief won't change. To have a large percentage of the United States population avoiding vaccines can not be an optimal situation. I urge the FDA to do what it can to address and rectify these concerns.

Thank you.
