I'm with Hopeful. I googled for [ dna from aborted babies vaccine ] to try to figure out where the idea that there might be some connection between aborted fetuses and vaccines originated. I looked through a number of the sites, and so far have not found anything that looks credible, let alone persuasive.
Somehow spreading the word that some extract of aborted fetuses is injected into people as a component of vaccines reminds me of the example from a marketing class in college where they said that in countries with low levels of literacy, people were accustomed to seeing the picture on canned goods or boxed goods of the food contained therein. Then, the picture of the smiling Gerber baby on the box would be problematic because would-be purchasers would surmise that the box contained some baby content.

One thing that you have to remember about resistance to vaccines by groups like Generation Rescue, SafeMinds, and others is that it is not scientific in nature. It is either due to an excessive reliance on anecdotes or confusing correlation with causation (usually with a distrust of science and medicine), or it is ideological in nature. No matter how many of the “toxins” scientists remove from vaccines, it will never be enough for Generation Rescue, Jenny McCarthy, or other antivaccinationists, because it’s all about the vaccines and the very concept of vaccination itself, not any individual ingredients in the vaccines. Antivaccinationists will never come to a point where they say, “OK, now I believe that all the toxins are gone and vaccines are safe.” They’ll either fixate on the viruses or the viral or bacterial antigens themselves, or they’ll make the claim that vaccines are made using “aborted fetuses” because some cell lines used to grow up virus stocks were derived from aborted fetuses 40 or more years ago. If every trace of formaldehyde, aluminum, or any other chemical with more than two syllables in its name were somehow to be removed from all vaccines, they would still be saying things like this:
