Vaccinations - The Darker Side

There is a wide spread assumption that vaccinations of the young children
against infectious diseases are good thing both for the children themselves
and the community as a whole. This leads to further assumption that the
vaccination of all children would eliminate these diseases with general
increase of health. However a search of medical literature on the subject
indicates that there is another side of this.
THE PRINCIPLE OF VACCINATION: By injecting the vaccine directly
into body an important part of usual system of building up of an immune
response to a foreign material is bypassed. For example a child inhales
measles virus in a droplet thrown into air by coughing or sneezing of an
infected child, nothing appears to happen during the ten to fourteen day
incubation period. But under the surface the virus begins to multiply first in
tonsils & adenoids & then in lymph nodes before entering the blood. Hence
the virus reaches the spleen, liver, thymus and bone marrow which together
form a major part of the immune system. By the time first symptoms of the
measles become obvious, the immune system has started to produce
antibodies against the virus and these are detectable in blood. When the
symptoms reach their peak and the characteristic rash has appeared, the
antibodies have also reached their maximum number.
The symptoms represent the body’s efforts to clear the virus from the blood
and the virus is coughed out by very route through which it entered.
In this way, the entire immune system is profoundly stimulated and not only
will the child who recovers from measles remain immune to it for life but he
or she will be able to respond rapidly and effectively to any subsequent
infections. It has long been suggested that infectious diseases are necessary
for maturation of the immune system in a healthy child.
As a result of injecting vaccine directly into the body, only the antibody
response is stimulated, not he generalised inflammatory response and viral
elements from the vaccine may persist in body for long afterwards. Due to
this vaccinations may actually suppress the immune response in the same
way that radiation, cancer, chemotherapy and corticosteroid drugs.
A link between increased incidence of autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid
arthritis, multiple sclerosis and leukemia and increase in vaccinations is also
being probed.
Small Pox: - Jenner developed vaccine for small pox in 1796. There are two
things of interest around this time of Jenner`s work. First is that James
Phipps, an eight-year-old boy initially vaccinated by Jenner in 1796, was
re-vaccinated 20 times, died at the age of twenty.
Second Jenner`s own son, who was also vaccinated more than once, died at
the age of twenty-one. Both succumbed to tuberculosis, a condition that
some researchers have linked to small pox vaccination.
Another thing of importance is that small pox and other communicable
diseases were declining before vaccination programs were enforced. This
may be attributed to the sanitary reforms and nutritional teachings instituted
around mid 1800s, as other communicable diseases for which no vaccination
was available were also declining at the same time.
The interesting thing however is that incidence of small pox actually
increased once vaccination programs were instituted. In Jenner`s time, there
were only few cases of smallpox in England. After more than fifteen years of
mandatory vaccinations, 1860-71 alone more than 23000 people died from
the disease. Later, in Japan, nearly 29000 people died in just seven years
under a stringent compulsory vaccination and re-vaccination program.
This increase in smallpox cases deaths was associated with a noticeable lack
of protection. For example in Germany over 124000 people died of smallpox
during the same epidemic. All had been vaccinated. Additionally, hospital
records consistently show that about 90 percent of all smallpox cases
occurred after the individual was vaccinated.
This lack of efficacy and increase in disease incidence, while other
communicable diseases were on decline, led to the refusal of small pox
vaccination by some countries. This resulted in drop of the incidence of the
disease that is quite remarkable. In Australia, when two children died from
smallpox shots, the government terminated compulsory vaccinations. As a
result smallpox virtually disappeared from that country.
Polio: This is another disease for which people assume that vaccination has
made a difference in incidence. From 1923 to 1953, before the Salk killed
virus vaccine was introduced, the polio death rate in USA and England had
already declined on its own by 47 percent and 55 percent respectively.
When vaccines became available, many European countries questioned its
effectiveness and refused to systematically inoculate their citizens. Yet Polio
epidemics also ended in these countries as well.
As with smallpox vaccine, the number of reported cases of polio following
mass inoculations with killed virus vaccine were significantly greater than
before mass vaccinations.
In 1976, Dr Jones Salk testified that the live virus vaccine, used almost
exclusively in USA since early 60`s was “ the principle if not the solo cause
‘ of all reported polio cases in USA since 1960.
Few days back in a popular Indian TV show children of a village were
shown. All of them got affected with polio after taking polio drops.
MMR: When this vaccine for measles, mumps and rubella was launched in
1988, it was implied that a single dose would provide life long protection
against all three diseases. Yet if we look further at just one component of this
vaccine – Rubella, there is little evidence to show that vaccine induced
immunity to disease is complete or as long lasting as immunity acquired by
having the disease.
Rubella is generally mild in childhood but may damage the unborn child if a
woman contracts the disease in early pregnancy.
In USA, where MMR Vaccine has been available for more than 10 years, a
number of studies have shown that a proportion of children have no
evidence of immunity to rubella in blood tests taken four to five years after
vaccination.
A Danish study has shown that when measles has been suppressed in
childhood by vaccination so that the typical rash was not shown but
antibodies were made, there was a predisposition to develop arthritis,
dermatitis and bone diseases later in life. A 1991 study by Marvin Krober
revealed that even a simple coryza could neutralize the vaccine.
The information supplied to doctors by the manufacturers of MMR Vaccine
lists the following – Immediate allergic reactions, Febrile convulsions,
Swelling of lymph glands, Temporary arthritic symptoms, transient
disturbance of nervous system including one sided paralysis, deafness and
encephalitis. Some of these symptoms may not develop until several weeks
after the injection.
DPT: The major controversy over the use of Peruses (Whooping Cough)
vaccine has been the possibility of Brain damage. Data published form
Glasgow in 1977 showed that the vaccine offered little protection to infants
under the age of six months, the most dangerous time to get this disease and
the majority of the older children who suffered the disease had been fully
vaccinated.
Known effects are: Sudden death of an previously completely healthy child
(Sudden infant death syndrome); inconsolable crying, more or less severe
brain damage appearing within a given time period after inoculation;
Localized redness, swelling, induration and pain at the site of vaccination;
Exceptionally high fevers, pronounced sleepiness, strabismus, epileptic
seizures, hemiplegia, paraplegia and epileptoid convulsions. These are the
effects for which the children may suffer for the rest of their lives and which
are remarkably resistant to therapy. A number of less obvious damages are
hyperactivity beginning for the time of vaccination, learning disabilities,
dyslexia, reading disorders, character flaws appearing in the aftermath.
Due to these harmful side effects the US congress passed the “National
Childhood Vaccine Injury Compensation Act ” for the children who were
damaged by the side effects of the vaccines.
Measles Vaccine: Measles vaccine was introduced in 1963, yet in US and
England, from 1915 to 1958, a greater than 95 percent decline in measles
death rate had already occurred. In addition, the death rate from measles in
Mid 1970`s i.e. several years after vaccine had been introduced remained as
same as in early 1960`s i.e. several years before the vaccine was introduced.
According to a study by WHO, chances are 14 times greater that those
vaccinated against the disease than those who are not vaccinated will
contract measles.
It has been determined that the measles vaccine may cause ataxia, learning
disabilities, retardation, aseptic meningitis, seizure disorders, paralysis and
death. It has also been investigated as a possible cause for multiple sclerosis,
blood clotting disorders and juvenile onset diabetes.
Another additional harmful effect is that the disease has changed form and
now affects primarily a different age group. The peak incidence of measles
no longer occurs in children but in adolescents and young adults.
Also before the vaccine was introduced, it was extremely rare for an infant
to contract measles. However by 1993 more than 25% of all measles cases
were occurring in babies under a year of age. This is attributed to the
growing number of mothers who were vaccinated during the last 30 years
and therefore have no natural immunity of their own to pass on to their
children.
BCG: This vaccine is used as preventive against tuberculosis. Few weeks
back in all major newspapers a report from Indian Council of Medical
Research said that this vaccine is a failure and it has actually lead to an
increase in the number of tuberculosis patients.
There is no scientific evidence so far that mass vaccination can be credited
with eliminating any childhood infectious disease. The incidence of
diphtheria was already declining before vaccine started in 1940`s. Some,
once common diseases have become less widespread and serious through
increased standards of hygiene and nutrition. Scarlet fever is now rare
disease and yet a vaccine has never been developed against it.
Where a vaccine offers only a limited protection against a disease, changed
symptoms may appear causing difficulty with diagnosis and treatment.
For example, some vaccinated children have been shown to have whooping
cough, although the traditional whoop was absent.
As WHO maintains, “ The best vaccine against common infectious diseases
is an adequate diet”. By active promotion of good health through varied diet
containing plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables, a child is less susceptible to
disease and when it does occur, he or she is in a good position to deal with it
effectively.

(NaturalNews) Vaccines are the quackery of modern medicine. Mass
vaccination programs not only fail to protect the population from infectious
disease, they actually accelerate the spread of disease in many cases.
Many website have cropped up over the last few years to counter the provaccine
propaganda put out by drug companies (who profit from vaccines) and
health regulators (who serve the drug companies). One of those sites is
www.VaccinationDebate.com , which lists the following historical facts about
vaccines:
• In the USA in 1960, two virologists discovered that both polio vaccines were
contaminated with the SV 40 virus which causes cancer in animals as well as
changes in human cell tissue cultures. Millions of children had been injected
with these vaccines. (Med Jnl of Australia 17/3/1973 p555)
• In 1871-2, England, with 98% of the population aged between 2 and 50
vaccinated against smallpox, it experienced its worst ever smallpox outbreak
with 45,000 deaths. During the same period in Germany, with a vaccination
rate of 96%, there were over 125,000 deaths from smallpox.

revealed that more cases of TB occurred in the vaccinated than the
unvaccinated. (The Lancet 12/1/80 p73)
• In 1978, a survey of 30 States in the US revealed that more than half of the
children who contracted measles had been adequately vaccinated. (The
People's Doctor, Dr R Mendelsohn)

• In the USA, the cost of a single DPT shot had risen from 11 cents in 1982 to
$11.40 in 1987. The manufacturers of the vaccine were putting aside $8 per
shot to cover legal costs and damages they were paying out to parents of brain
damaged children and children who died after vaccination. (The Vine, Issue 7,
January 1994, Nambour, Qld)
• In Oman between 1988 and 1989, a polio outbreak occurred amongst

• In the USA, from July 1990 to November 1993, the US Food and Drug
Administration counted a total of 54,072 adverse reactions following

other words, adverse reactions for this period exceeded half a million! (National
Vaccine Information Centre, March 2, 1994)
• In 1990, the Journal of the American Medical Association had an article on

children." (JAMA, 21/11/90)
• In the New England Journal of Medicine July 1994 issue a study found that
over 80% of children under 5 years of age who had contracted whooping cough
had been fully vaccinated.
• On November 2nd, 2000, the Association of American Physicians and
Surgeons (AAPS) announced that its members voted at their 57th annual
meeting in St Louis to pass a resolution calling for an end to mandatory
childhood vaccines. The resolution passed without a single "no" vote.
