In most cases, people only try alternative methods when they're desperate, because the conventional drugs-based methods didn't work. There are many, many, many thousands of success stories of people who were dying after enduring the chemo or other 'conventional' therapies, but then fully recovered after switching to alternative therapies.
The reverse - people doing well on drugs and then dying from alternative therapies - are extremely rare, by comparison.
Further, there are 100,000 deaths every year from conventional drugs. It's the 4th leading cause of death in the US. But those giving the drugs aren't put in prison. No one is being held accountable for all those deaths.

I used to think anyone who didn't vaccinate their kids was guilty of child abuse! That's how strongly I felt in favor of vaccines. But my eyes have been opened.

But I am interested in the research and investigations that are done by actual doctors/scientists, with no other biases accept saving lives, and not fear based information that is trying to spread well, fear.
Why do you seem to imply that doctors/scientists have no biases, but parents whose children were stricken have biases and are "spreading fear"?
If anyone has a bias, it's those who profit. Who profits from the sale of drugs? The same people doing the studies. That is bias.
