This is perhaps the most damning yet ironic testimony against vaccines, a confession that comes from none other than the man who developed the first polio vaccine – the Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine or IPV.
Quoted in the medical journal Science in 1977, Dr Jonas Salk admitted before a US Senate Sub-Committee that mass inoculation against polio was the cause of most polio cases across the US since 1961.
Salk is also reported to have said that “live virus vaccines against influenza or poliomyelitis may in each instance produce the disease it intended to prevent… (and) the live virus against measles and mumps may produce such side effects as encephalitis (brain damage).”
There are many interpretations of Salk’s testimony. Pro-Salk proponents point out that the scientist was referring to the “live” or oral form of the polio vaccine developed by Dr Albert Sabin in 1957 vis-à-vis his own IPV which he developed four years earlier.
However, even if that were true, it is alarming to hear from a scientist who made vaccine history that a vaccine – any vaccine – administered to vast sections of the human population could result in widespread deaths, or for that matter, any deaths at all.
We will return to this controversy in Chapter 2 on Historical Blunders But for now, suffice to say that with Salk’s testimony, the very premise of vaccination theory suffered a serious blow.
1. Definition of Disease
Before I illustrate how vaccines cause, and not prevent disease, let us first define ‘disease’ in the context of vaccines and immunity.
It has long been known that in some illnesses such as measles, chickenpox and scarlet fever, one bout of the illness usually provides lifelong immunity. A second experience with measles or scarlet fever is extremely rare.
Why is that so? That is because nature has gifted the human body with wonderful natural armor – an in-built immunity – that protects the body by kicking in after a bout of a particular disease.
Till modern science unraveled the secrets of the immune system, the concepts of medicine formulated in the 19th century were in part based on the understanding of medicine by the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates.
According to Hippocrates, an illness manifests itself as signs and symptoms that travel from the inner vital organs and blood circulation to the outer surface of the body. These outer symptoms manifest themselves as visible symptoms such as a rash or discharge of blood, mucus or pus.
This ‘throwing off’ of an illness was considered a natural healing response which returned the body to a state of balance or equilibrium. And it took place only after the inner poisons produced by the disease were cooked and digested (pepsis) during the inflammatory process.
Hippocrates’s astute observations were further developed by modern science, which later uncovered the actual mechanisms of infection, inflammation and healing on these very same lines.
Disease symptoms can indeed be caused by pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. But we have also been led to think of them as enemies that we need to battle. The fact is that disease does not begin when we are exposed to or are infected with a bacterium or virus. It begins when the body begins to respond to a pathogen or the inflammatory-infectious process that it sets in motion. This means that disease equals healing, which is the body’s way of returning to a balanced condition (homeostasis). Disease is a sure sign that the body is engaged in correcting an underlying condition that is otherwise unfavorable to its efficiency and survival.
It is critical to understand this because it turns on its head the very foundation on which vaccination theory rests. The human body’s inflammatory response to disease is, in fact, a healing process. Symptoms of disease are the body’s attempt to deal with accumulated toxins, waste matter, and weakened or damaged cells. The so-called pathogens appropriately assist the body in destroying and eliminating such potentially harmful materials from the system, and return the body to a healthy state of equilibrium.
Also, the magnitude of the body’s response, or the severity of illness, is not only influenced by the magnitude of the resulting infection but also by the stamina of its immune system.
The healing force employed by the body is, in turn, influenced by a variety of factors such as the individual’s emotional state, spiritual foundation, diet, lifestyle, environment, etc. It definitely does not depend on whether we have been vaccinated against infectious agents.
If the immune system is weak, the body becomes congested and toxic, or vice versa. As a result, pathogens are likely to invade the body and start the detoxification process (disease), although the majority of germ ‘invasions’ occur silently, without ever disturbing us. Think about it. The human body is exposed to a multitude of pathogens every day, some of them agents of (presumed) deadly diseases. If germ invasion were synonymous with disease and death, most human beings would not survive very long.
Germ Theory: Yet it is precisely this assumption on which the 19th century French scientist, Louis Pasteur, postulated this famous Germ Theory, which has since become the cornerstone of modern medicine and vaccination.
Pasteur was the first researcher to suggest that diseases are caused by germs. According to him, germs or pathogens are ‘after us’ because they need to prey on us for their own survival. He initially believed that infectious/inflammatory diseases are a direct result of germs feasting on us but then retracted that theory at the time of his death.
In microscopic studies of host tissues in such diseases, Pasteur, Robert Koch and their colleagues repeatedly observed that germs proliferated while many host cells were dying. These researchers concluded that germs attack and destroy healthy cells and thereby start a disease process in the body.
Although Pasteur’s assumption turned out to be wrong, it had already worked its way into the world of science and got under the skin of researchers and doctors, and thus the myth that ‘germs cause infection and disease’ became an undisputed reality. Today, this idea continues to prevail as a fundamental ‘scientific truth’ in the modern medical system.
Pasteur could have just as easily concluded that bacteria are naturally attracted to sites of increased cell death, just like they are attracted to decaying organic matter elsewhere in nature.
Flies, ants, crows, vultures and, of course, bacteria are drawn towards death. This is an undisputed law of nature. Why would this be different in the body? Weak, damaged or dead cells in the human body are just as prone to germ infection as an overripe or bruised fruit.
Pasteur and all the researchers that followed in his footsteps chose to think of germs either as predators or scavengers. Had they assumed that cells die for non-apparent biochemical reasons (such as toxicity buildup), our current thinking about illness and health would be quite different.
Pasteur’s ‘germs-are-equal-to-disease’ theory basically ignored, or at least bypassed, the immune system and its awesome, if not sometimes mysterious, powers of healing.
Why it is flawed: The fact is that inflammatory/infectious illnesses cannot be attributed to germs but are located in the various human frailties that necessitate the forces of decay and death.
It is a question of subtle emphasis. While germs are indeed involved in the disease process, they are definitely not, as Pasteur assumed, intent on harming us; nor are they the actual causal agents of infectious diseases.
Germs only become aggressive to us when confronted with the poisons we create. Our body does not battle germs because they are the enemy. Likewise, germs don’t wage battles against our body. In fact, there are at least 10 times as many bacteria as human cells in the body, and none of them are causing us any harm. An estimated 500 to 1000 species of bacteria live in the human gut and a roughly similar number on the skin.
As reported in the Annual Review of Microbiology, the human flora is the assemblage of microorganisms, benign and otherwise, that reside on the surface and in deep layers of skin, in the saliva and oral mucosa, in the conjunctiva, and in the gastrointestinal tracts. They include bacteria, fungi, and archaea (single-cell). The relationship between germs and humans is not merely commensal (a non-harmful coexistence), but rather is a mutualistic relationship. The microorganisms perform a host of useful functions such as fermenting unused energy substrates, training the immune system, preventing growth of parasitic species, regulating the development of the gut, producing vitamins for the host (such as biotin and vitamin K), and producing hormones to direct the host to store fats. We need them and they need us.
If the body becomes overtaxed with toxins and trapped metabolic waste products, cells may suffer severe oxygen and nutrient deprivation and subsequently become damaged or die. An immune reaction such as high fever or depletion of energy is meant to cleanse the body of these harmful substances that otherwise could lead to the eventual demise of the entire body. The presence and activity of destructive microorganisms (infection) in this situation, encouraging the inflammatory response of the body, is not only natural but desirable.
Microorganisms become only ‘pathogenic’ as the health of the body’s organism deteriorates. Disease is built by unhealthy conditions such as buildup of toxins and waste matter, and in most cases, the disease itself becomes the medicine to cleanse the affected organs and systems of the body and return it to health.
In situations of extreme toxicity, severe physical congestion, or overuse of medical drugs and vaccines, the immune system may be so overwhelmed by the toxins it tries to eliminate that it may not be able to save the individual. In the worst-case scenario, the immune system doesn’t respond to the poisons and germs at all, and no acute disease symptoms appear (fever, inflammations, pain, or other signs of infection). These individuals cannot even develop a cold or get the flu, which otherwise could serve as a relief outlet for these toxins. The result then is a chronic, debilitating illness such as congestive heart failure, lupus, arthritis or other so-called autoimmune disorders, or death.
2. The Truth About Viruses
Contrary to what conventional medicine would have you believe, viruses don’t kill people. If someone is sick and also has a virus in their system, he or she is not sick because of the virus. Sickness must exist before a virus can show up.
Viruses are designed to induce healing, not illness. Symptoms such those produced by the body’s effort to heal (fever, headache, dizziness, fatigue, etc), do not constitute the disease. Increasing body temperature (fever), for example, is one of the body's best methods to increase the production of immune cells to deal with toxins and then dispose of bacteria, viruses and fungi when they are no longer needed.
Influenza, for example, is the final stage of healing an underlying disease; the disease consists of a buildup of toxins, medical drugs, heavy metals, acidic waste products, dead cell material and other noxious substances that could otherwise lead to a life-threatening condition.
An infection is merely used to break down harmful substances, like metals, drugs, chemicals, pesticides, food additives and trans fatty acids from restaurant foods or readymade foods, artificial sweeteners, etc.
Usually, some of these toxic substances are broken down by the body but most of them require bacteria to dispose of them. Some other chemical compounds, however, require solvents to dissolve and remove them.
That is when the body makes viruses or allows them to be made and spread through the body via the blood and lymph. Hence, we don't need to destroy viruses; they are on our side.
Viruses are inert proteins that the body produces in order to attack and dissolve such noxious substances. Unlike bacteria, viruses are not living organisms. They are actually microscopic strips of genetic material – DNA and RNA – housed inside a capsule. Unlike bacteria, they cannot reproduce because they have no digestive system or reproductive system.
The human body makes more of these solvents when it needs to dissolve harmful substances, and it stops making them when the danger of cellular suffocation has subsided. Viruses act effectively, just like solvents in paint cleaners, and play an important role in the detoxification process. Viruses don’t stop being reproduced because the body attacks them; they diminish when the body no longer needs them.
The bottom line is that viruses can only become active and increase in number in a toxic body that cannot be cleaned up by bacteria or the body itself. Allow me to reiterate something at this crucial point: The human body only creates more viruses when there is a need to mop up drug chemicals, food preservatives, air pollutants, as well as toxic metals such as mercury and aluminum, pesticides, antibiotics and animal parts that are present in every vaccine.
To protect itself, the body may store an enormous number of different viruses but they remain inactive till a need arises for them to become active and spread to do their important work. The body removes and disposes of most of them once the detoxification process is complete. It is commonly believed that the immune system produces antibodies to combat and destroy viruses, but this may not be true. More on the true role of antibodies later.
Vaccinating an individual to invoke antibody production interferes with the body’s most basic healing mechanisms, and I consider it to be one of modern medicine’s most dangerous weapons – truly a weapon of mass destruction.
3. Who’s The Life-Saver?
In the scenario where the immune system has successfully restored the body’s functions, the body is healthier and stronger than before. This bestows what many call acquired immunity but doesn’t necessarily involve immunity against specific germs. It may just as well mean the body is now healthy and free of toxins, and hence there is no further need for germs to evoke the body’s cleansing and healing response. Many people argue that the body has then acquired immunity to the germs that initiated the rescue mission, but, in truth, it is the heightened state of health and vitality that keeps the body from falling ill again.
Vaccine science has pursued the question of how we can bring about lifelong immunity to an infectious/inflammatory illness without having to experience the illness first.
The assumption is that by evoking production of antibodies to combat certain illness-causing germs, you are automatically protected against them. However, modern medicine has not been able to prove whether protection from the germs is due to the presence of antibodies or to a naturally healthy immune response which is primarily intended to purify and heal the congested, damaged tissues. It is actually much more likely that the latter is true, unless vaccine poisons have damaged or even paralyzed the immune system. (We shall explore the issue of immunity in Chapter 3: Is There A Conspiracy?: The War Within)
The current germ theory suggests that only when the number of germs or their rate of growth exceeds a certain threshold are they then recognized by the immune system, resulting in the formation of antibodies specific to the particular microbe. Or could there be another explanation as to why antibodies are produced?
A large presence of germs indicates that the cell tissue has become damaged or weak due to the accumulation of acid waste or another kind or injury. At that level of infection, things begin to spin seriously out of control and a tribe of germs proliferates wildly and provokes the full healing force of our immune system. This is what doctors call an ‘acute inflammatory response’.
Symptoms usually include fever, release of stress hormones by the adrenal glands, increased flow of blood, lymph and mucus, and a streaming of white blood cells (lymphocytes) to the inflamed area (wound). The afflicted person feels sick and may experience pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness and chills.
The sweating out and throwing off of the illness is a natural response by the body that reflects a healthy immune system. In other words, the illness actually shows that the body is capable of successfully dealing with an unhealthy condition. This mandates that the illness is allowed and supported, not suppressed and aggravated. A really sick person would no longer be able to produce such healing responses.
Once we have successfully passed the challenge of a particular illness, it is less likely that we will experience it again. Somehow the illness and our response to it have made us immune to its recurrence.
It is highly doubtful that vaccination can do the same for us by forcing the body to make antibodies for some germs that appear to be causing an infection, thus protecting the individual against an infectious disease in the future.
On the contrary, it has been shown, time and again, that despite vaccination against a particular illness, the vaccinated individual may develop the very illness he is supposedly protected against. The proven fact that the mere presence of antibodies to a specific pathogen does not protect a person against infection should have raised serious doubts among medical professionals and lay people alike that the vaccine theory is seriously flawed or invalid. We cannot have it both ways; antibodies either protect us or they don’t. Why do so many vaccinated people with high antibody presence for whooping cough and measles develop these diseases when vaccine science insists that these antibodies serve as protection against them? It is obvious that we are not being told the truth.
In Chapters 2 and 3 on Historical Blunders and Is There A Conspiracy?, we shall look at instances in the past where mass vaccination during or after an epidemic has in fact increased the incidence of an illness, apart from killing large swathes of the population. In many cases, these deaths have been directly linked to the introduction of a specific virus, as well as animal parts used to grow the vaccine, and toxic chemicals and metals contained in vaccines, into the human body.
4. Antibodies due to Vaccine Injury
If vaccines can cause death and paralysis in some, they can certainly cause injuries in many others, even if these harmful side effects are not immediately recognized. When tissues are injured, the body initiates a wound healing process that may involve an infection during which pathogenic germs help decompose the damaged or dead cells. Wound healing requires that the body dispatches immune cells, and yes, antibodies, to the site of injury.
Scientific research clearly demonstrates that lymphocyte participation in wound healing is a dynamic and distinctive process. The wound repair process is a very complex and highly ordered sequence of events that encompasses haemostasis, inflammatory cell infiltration, tissue regrowth and remodeling. If we want to successfully heal, we need to allow this ordered sequence to unfold without interference.
Wound healing follows tissue destruction, and antibodies bind to wounded tissues, which facilitates the engulfment of damaged tissues by macrophages, another important group of immune cells. B cells in particular, which produce and dispatch antibodies to damaged tissues, are involved in the process of wound healing. In fact, a recent study published in Immunology (2009 Nov) clearly shows that proper wound healing is impossible without the active participation of antibodies. For example, the researchers detected the antibody complex, immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1), binding to wounded tissues.
The fact that the body produces antibodies to heal damaged tissues raises a crucial point that is sufficiently convincing to challenge the current vaccine theory. What if antibodies are not at all produced to fight off germs, such as viruses or bacteria, but instead to repair the injuries caused by toxins, acidic waste matter, chemicals in foods, drugs, the poison fluoride in drinking water, etc?
In the case of vaccine shot injury, not unlike any other injury, antibodies must be produced in order to heal the tissue damage caused by injecting toxic chemicals, such as formaldehyde, anti-freeze agents, antibiotics and the deadly cocktail of preservatives they contain, directly into the blood stream. Just sticking a needle into someone’s arm is already enough to evoke the body’s inflammatory response which is necessary to heal the afflicted arm wound. In most cases, the body can repair the damage. However, if the immune system is weak to begin with, the vaccine injury may be fatal. A 2004 investigation has revealed that one in 500 children are born with a problem with their immune system that could cause serious or life-threatening reactions when vaccinated (Journal of Molecular Diagnostics, 2004 May, Volume 6 no 2, Pp 59-83). How many parents know whether their child has a weak immune system? Most parents and doctors are not aware of this risk because such information would seriously jeopardize the vaccine industry.
The other thing parents are not being told is that the viruses, bacteria, fungi and chemical toxins in one single vaccination force the immune system to respond and make antibodies that can cause genetic switches to be turned on and off. In the case of a developing child, this may lead to irreparable damage to the mind and/or body of that child. In the United States a child receives 36 vaccinations before age five, and one child in 91 develops autism. Eight deaths per 1000 in children below five years of age are due to vaccinations. In comparison, in Iceland a child receives 11 vaccine shots while only one child in 11,000 develops autism, and only four children per 1000 die as a result of being vaccinated. In 1980, a child received eight vaccinations and autism was rare. Today, Iceland ranks at # 1 in the world with respect to lifespan and the United States ranks at # 34. You can do the math and draw your own conclusions. More about the vaccine-autism link later.
All vaccine-makers claim that an increase in antibody production in the body results from the body’s exposure to a presumed pathogen (disease-causing germ). Given the very design of the body’s healing system (immune system), and supported by the aforementioned scientific research, it is just as likely that antibody production following vaccination is due to the necessity to heal the injuries caused by the toxins in the vaccine.
The question that arises is why do we refer to antibodies as being ‘anti’ something when the body uses them to heal itself? I propose to call them ‘probodies’, for they are primarily not against something, but rather for something. They are made and secreted by blood plasma cells that are derived from the B cells of the immune system to heal injury caused by a buildup of toxins. Vaccines are packed full with toxins, fragments of animal parts, and other foreign material that the body must recognize as antigens.
Antigens are usually proteins or polysaccharides. They are typically ‘bound’ at specific binding sites of an antibody. Antigens can consist of parts (coats, capsules, cell walls, flagella, fimbrae, and toxins) of bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms. Non-microbial antigens can include pollen, egg-white, animal dander, plant toxins, etc.
Vaccines, which may include many different antigens, are intended to raise antibody production to raise the body’s so-called ‘acquired immunity’. However, as of now, there is no double blind control study to show that vaccines offer a higher level of immunity than by taking a placebo or by doing nothing at all. I wonder why there has never been such a study. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)’s official argument against studying the harmful effects of vaccines in humans is that any such a study (on humans) is ‘unethical’.
And so I ask whether it is ethical to inject hundreds of millions of unsuspecting people, including children, each year with vaccines that have never been proven effective in preventing infectious disease, but on the contrary have been clearly shown to make them ill? Aren’t we allowing double standards and legalization of mass experimentation to override this legitimate question by parents who want no harm done to their child: “Where is the proof that vaccines improve my child’s immunity and keep it healthy?” Do we have to take the doctor’s word for it?
Take the answer from someone who is best suited to have an objective insider’s perspective. Dr. Marcia Angell disclosed after two decades as an editor for The New England Journal of Medicine: “It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines.”
The fact of the matter is that vaccines inhibit and systematically destroy the immune system. And there is real scientific evidence to prove it; evidence that has not been manipulated to yield more power and resources to vested interest groups.
5. Vaccines Suppress Immunity
One careful study of illness patterns observed in 82 healthy infants before and after vaccination was published in Clinical Pediatrics (1988). In this study conducted in Israel, researchers compared the incidence of acute illnesses in the 30-day period following DTaP vaccine (against Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis) to the incidence in the same children for the 30-day period prior to receiving the vaccine. The three-day period immediately following vaccination was excluded because children frequently develop fever as a direct response to vaccine toxins. According to the researchers, the babies experienced a dramatic increase in fever, diarrhea, and cough in the month following DTaP vaccine compared to their health before the shot.
It is relatively easy to observe whether vaccines have any negative effect on white blood cells, which form the body’s primary immune system. Accordingly, a more recent peer-reviewed study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in May 1996, revealed that tetanus vaccine produces a drop in T Cells and thus disables the immune system in HIV patients. Of course, this means, the vaccine can damage anyone’s immune system, not just in those whose immune system has already been compromised. It is anyone’s guess what a compromised immune system can lead up to.
In 1992, the New Zealand Immunization Awareness Society (IAS) conducted a survey study to find out how many of its members' children were suffering from health problems. Among other disease conditions of an impaired immune system, the vaccinated versus unvaccinated children suffered:
- five times more asthma
- nearly three times more allergies
- over three times more ear infections
- over four times more apnea and near miss cot death
- nearly four times more bouts of recurring tonsillitis
- ten times more hyperactivity
I can certainly vouch for these findings. In all the 37 years I have been involved with the natural health field, I have rarely seen unvaccinated children who were also autistic, hyperactive, or suffered from asthma, ear infections, allergies and tonsillitis. On the other hand, I have witnessed these occurrences among vaccinated children at alarmingly high rates.
A study published in PEDIATRICS Vol. March 1998 (pp. 383-387) found that acute encephalopathy followed by permanent brain injury or death was associated with measles vaccines. A total of 48 children, ages 10 to 49 months, met the inclusion criteria after receiving measles vaccine, alone or in combination. Eight children died, and the remainder had mental regression and retardation, chronic seizures, motor and sensory deficits, and movement disorders.
In September 2010, CNN reported that nine-month-old twins in Ghaziabad, India died within minutes of receiving a measles vaccine. Avika and Anika Sharma were given the vaccinations at a private nursing home by Dr Satyaveer Singh. Within about 15 minutes, both little girls were dead. The Indian Medical Association’s local president Dr Santosh Aggrawal, who visited the hospital after the incident, confirmed that the health of the twins deteriorated after being administered the vaccine. He said, “The doctor had a fresh supply of the vaccine. Still there could be something wrong with the batch of vaccines. Similar deaths have been reported from Kanpur and Lucknow,” he added. When asked for comment, investigators said: “This is a case of adverse event following immunization … This is not a new phenomenon …”
One problem with determining the number of vaccine injuries or vaccine-caused deaths is that only a tiny fraction of the reactions are actually made known. Studies have estimated that only between 1 and 10 percent of side effects are ever reported. Doctors and hospitals are very reluctant to blame vaccines for the sudden onset of disease or death. They still consider vaccination to be the greatest medical achievement of all times. Besides, it is not good PR to admit that the medical treatment is responsible for causing brain damage or death. Blaming accidental occurrence of disease instead of vaccines on these side effects automatically works as a waiver of liability that extends to all acts of negligence.
Accordingly, most people have no idea how serious an issue vaccine injury has become. Unsuspecting parents may be taking their perfectly healthy children to the doctor, and moments or several days later they find them to be crippled or deceased. For the medical industry, it is collateral damage or collateral gain (losing or gaining a potential patient). For a parent, it is unimaginable trauma.
If such obvious injuries and immediate death can be inflicted upon children by the measles vaccine, I ask what other more subtle and unnoticeable disease-generating conditions can it bring on that eventually lead to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, liver and kidney failure, etc years later?
Instead of filling up a child with obviously unsafe and untested vaccines and thereby risking their health and lives, we may be better off nursing them through a few typically mild and harmless childhood diseases. Doing not much at all and letting nature take its course may actually strengthen their natural immunity and improve their health in the long term.
Germs produce toxins (antigens) which trigger an inflammatory response to help heal an underlying condition that the body may not be able to heal without employing their assistance. The plasma cells produce antibodies binding to these antigens where appropriate, which facilitates healing. B cells, lymphocytes, macrophages, and antibodies are all intricately involved in this healing process, which includes the neutralization and removal of toxins. The immune system is not a war machine that is equipped with weapons to target and destroy invading enemies; on the contrary, it is a highly sophisticated healing system whose sole purpose is to return the body to a state of balance and harmony (homeostasis).
It is important to mention here that not all vaccines are useless or harmful. For example, ‘homeopathic vaccines’ which are made up either from things that cause the disease, or from products of the disease, such as pus, have been shown to lead to remarkable recoveries.
In fact, many people bitten by poisonous snakes are saved by administering them the venom taken from that particular species of snake. According to Wikipedia, the acquisition of human immunity against snake venom is one of the oldest forms of vaccinology known to date (about AD 60, Psylli Tribe). Even today, people of the aboriginal tribes intentionally cut their skin and expose the wound to dirt to build a strong, natural resistance to toxins present in their environment. Wild animals often follow similar self-immunization practices.
Snake venom is highly modified saliva consisting of proteins, enzymes, substances with a cytotoxic effect, neurotoxins and coagulants. When self-injected, Eastern diamondback venom develops a high IgG neutralizing antibody for several rattlesnake species. Exposure to the snake poison induces immunity against future rattlesnake bites. The immunity is caused by the body generating antiserum to neutralize the toxic effects of the snake serum. This principle applies to every toxin that the body ingests. Simply put, our body produces specific blood proteins (antibodies) to bind to and neutralize toxins and to heal the injury caused by the toxins. The achieved cellular immunity (ability to reproduce the same antidote serum in the case of another snake bite) protects the body against future exposure to the same toxin, unless the degree of exposure greatly exceeds the body’s detoxification and compensation ability.
This happens especially when numerous vaccines are administered within a short time frame i.e. several months or years. As the previously mentioned research has shown, children in Iceland or Norway who only receive a total of 11 vaccines have a much lower risk of developing autism or dying than children in the US. Federal public health officials recommend that children should get a total of 69 doses of 16 vaccines from the day of their birth to age 18. We have already seen that children have a much higher incidence of asthma, allergies, ear infections, tonsillitis, and other serious ailments after they are vaccinated.
A child, who comes into the world with virtually no functional immune system, and who receives dozens of vaccine shots filled with toxic compounds, will subsequently suffer short-term damage as well as long-term damage, some of which will show up as autism, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, etc years later. Perhaps, this is the reason that the United States population ranks so low with regard to life expectancy (#49) when compared with countries like Iceland, Sweden and Switzerland, where fewer vaccinations are given and where more informed parents refuse them because of the mounting evidence of widespread vaccine injuries among the population.
Is it just coincidence that the US ranks first in health care costs and spends more than twice the amount on health care as other developed nations? Why are Americans so much sicker than people from other countries, in spite of having the most advanced health care system in the world? Or is it because of that?
Barbara Loe Fisher, founder of the National Vaccine Information Center, recently described this dilemma in one sentence: “The truth is, nobody knows how many vaccine victims there are in America, how many of the 1 in 6 learning disabled children; or the 1 in 9 with asthma; or the 1 in 100 who develop autism; or the 1 in 450 who become diabetic, can trace their chronic inflammation, disease and disability back to vaccine reactions that have been dismissed by public health officials and doctors for the past century as just "a coincidence”.
Planting dead or alive microbes into the blood stream in order to acquire immunity against future infections is entirely different than acquiring immunity by going through the entire course of a disease. There are no real shortcuts to immunity.
At this point, I would like to emphasize that the mere presence of specific antibodies cannot protect the human body against illness; only the cellular immune system can. And to reiterate, it accomplishes this not through the force of fighting but through the power of healing. Although science has learnt how to bestow antibodies through vaccination (by injuring the body), it mistakenly assumes it is bestowing the immune strength that can only be developed through the experience of a particular illness. Tricking the body’s immune system does not work; allowing nature to take its course does.
The bottom line is that antibodies against pathogens alone are not sufficient to produce immunity. It is well-known that several diseases such as herpes outbreaks may keep recurring despite high antibody levels.
Whether or not antibodies are present, immunity to these infectious diseases can only be conferred by our cellular immune system. The theory that exposing the body to germs will trigger an immune response similar to the one generated during an actual disease experience is seriously flawed. (See Chapter 3: Is There A Conspiracy?: The War Within)
Therefore, while questioning the very premise of vaccine theory, the question we must instead ask is: Who is the real life-saver? The vaccine? Or a healthy immune system?
However, vaccine proponents almost completely bypass the role of the immune system, choosing instead to reduce it to a mechanism that produces antibodies, a robotic army of soldiers that moves in as soon as there is a ‘germ invasion’. Ergo, it is the vaccines that induce immunity! Or so they would have us believe, ‘they’ being those who profit from other people’s sickness.
They want to distract us from discovering and utilizing all the other factors responsible for bestowing a healthy, vital immune system, including vitamin D produced in response to sun exposure, exercise, good nutrition, sufficient sleep, clean water and air, choosing a more relaxing, less stressful lifestyle, etc.
Having produced antibodies to a particular substance, food, or vaccine does not ultimately determine whether an illness such as an infection or allergy will actually occur. For example, people who have multiple personality disorder may be severely allergic to orange juice (allergen) while exhibiting one personality, yet when they suddenly switch to a different personality, these very same antibodies no longer trigger an allergic reaction. They may also be diabetic in one personality, and a few minutes later, they are diabetes-free. Women may even have different menstrual cycles while passing through their different personalities.
There is another example. A normal person who is allergic to cat dander and comes into contact with the proteins of the cat hair triggers the production of antibodies and subsequent inflammatory reaction. However, as it happens frequently, this person may only be allergic to white or orange cats, but not to black cats, or vice versa. Typically, a previous traumatic incidence involving a white cat, such as its death, may have led to the production of antibodies. Whenever the person touches a white cat, the body generates the antibody reaction based on the memory of that previous emotional trauma. And since black cats are not part of this memory, touching a black cat will not trigger an allergic reaction.
Along this line, something similar may happen to a person who suffers from an allergic reaction to gluten whenever he eats bread, but he doesn’t have a problem with eating pasta that also contains gluten.
In other words, there is no way of telling for sure whether the mere presence of antibodies generated by a vaccine against the mumps or measles virus will offer any protection. The entire vaccine theory is based on the idea that the presence of such specific antibodies in the blood stream bestows immunity against these diseases. For example, the research data collected during the most recent outbreak of mumps shows without a doubt that having antibodies against such viruses has zero protective benefits without the underlying cellular immunity produced by going through the disease. Not only that. We know that 770 out of the 1,000 people sickened with mumps were fully vaccinated against it and 230 weren’t. Not having any vaccine-induced antibodies against the mumps virus apparently provides a much better guarantee to remain disease–free than having them. To say it bluntly, the unvaccinated are obviously better protected than the vaccinated. The bottom line is that vaccines increase one’s chances of viral infection, not decrease it.
6. Infecting Volunteers
In 2006, a team of research scientists from Duke's Center for Genomic Medicine, University of Virginia, University of Michigan and the National Center for Genomic Resources, conducted a project with a total of 57 volunteers. The participants were infected through the nose with either a cold virus, an influenza virus or a respiratory syncytial virus. Twenty-eight volunteers subsequently developed flu- or cold-like symptoms.
The aim of the study was to determine whether any of the more than 20,000 genes in the human body underwent any changes in response to the viral exposure. Accordingly, among the 28 study participants who ended up getting sick, researchers found a set of about 30 genes that were turned on in response to having been infected with a virus. In the 29 people who never developed symptoms, there were no changes to the group of genes.
I am not going to comment about the genomic implications of the study since it is well-known that foreign protein fragments (called viruses) can turn on genes. I rather want to pose the question why the 29 participants who never developed any symptoms remained healthy in spite of the same degree of exposure to the disease-causing germs. Why were the viruses in these individuals unable to turn on these same 30 genes? If an influenza virus successfully enters the body, what decides whether or not the body will meet the intrusion with a flurry of antibodies and the mounting of an inflammatory response? The answer is quite simple. Obviously, the healthy participants didn’t fall sick due to the viruses because viruses cannot make healthy people sick. Their genes remained unaffected by viral intrusion.
On the other hand, why did the other group of 28 participants fall ill? The answer is that only unhealthy people can fall sick because of viruses. As mentioned before, viruses can trigger a powerful cleansing and healing response in the body that returns a congested, toxic body into a more balanced condition.
Before assuming that viruses cause disease, rather than restore a person’s failing health, it would be wise to briefly examine why the so-called epidemics really occur. During the 2009 H1N1 epidemic, the media reported that several toddlers had developed swine flu symptoms and subsequently died. As it turned out, these children had never before been in contact with anyone who carried the H1N1 virus or any other infectious virus. However, these children all suffered from a serious pre-existing condition, such as heart disease.
Likewise, there are thousands of children that test positive for the HIV virus, yet both their parents test negative. Even some newborn babies test positive for HIV while their parents don’t. If nobody infected these children, how did they get infected? This is an inconvenient question to ask health officials because it completely contradicts the germ theory which states that pathogenic germs are transmitted from person to person. In truth, a healthy, strong immune system and toxin-free body will not require to contract an infection to return to a balanced state, and therefore will remain unaffected by pathogens.
There are a number of reasons why children may fall ill. First, their blood never had the chance to be properly cleansed by the mother’s placenta because the umbilical cord was clamped right after birth instead of 40-60 minutes later. Early clamping also causes the infant’s blood oxygen to be at no more than 60 percent of normal levels.
Second, a child’s evolving immune system is injured by multiple vaccines right from birth, including the unnecessary hepatitis B vaccine (given for a disease children hardly ever develop, and for which they require revaccination anyway when they are a little older because of diminished antibodies). Injecting aluminum and formaldehyde contained in this vaccine into newborn babies should worry every parent and doctor.
Third, babies who are not breastfed, or the mother is unhealthy herself and does not produce good quality breast milk, cannot build a normal healthy immune system.
Fourth, at doctor’s orders, babies are kept out of the sun for at least six months after birth and therefore become vitamin D deficient. By contrast, mothers in Africa regularly take their newborn babies into the sun, and thus these infants rarely suffer from vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D is essential for building a strong immune system. A recent study by researchers at Oregon State University showed that vitamin D is so crucial to the functioning of your immune system that vitamin D’s ability to boost immune function and keep the body protected and healthy has been conserved in the genome for over 60 million years of evolution.
“The existence and importance of this part of our immune response makes it clear that humans and other primates need to maintain sufficient levels of vitamin D,” said Adrian Gombart, an associate professor of biochemistry and a principal investigator with the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University.
Vitamin D, which is actually a steroid hormone produced in large amounts as a result of regular sun exposure, regulates over 2,000 genes. It acts like a switch that turns the body’s healing system on and keeps it active and responsive. If vitamin D becomes deficient, the switch turns off and the body’s healing and detoxification ability drops significantly. This, in turn, blocks the body’s ability to heal and rid itself of toxins, including those produced by micro-organisms.
As a result, a vitamin D deficient person, child or adult, will become so congested with toxins that an increasing number of cells become damaged or die, an infection therefore becomes necessary to invoke a powerful healing and cleansing response. As seen in the above mentioned examples, it doesn’t matter whether the affected person has received a virus or bacterium from someone else, although this may certainly accelerate the speed with which disease symptoms occur. Our body is home to numerous species of bacteria and many viral materials that remain well hidden and dormant, but become activated and multiplied should their assistance be required. Typically, the resulting infection will come to an end once the cleansing and repair job has been accomplished.
However, in a person who is severely vitamin D deficient, the inflammation may escalate to a degree that can turn out to be fatal. Vitamin D normally prevents the ‘adaptive’ immune response from over-reacting and reduces inflammation. In other words, it keeps the immune system in check, and suppresses it if necessary.
Young children and elderly people who do not expose their skin to the sun enough, or who use sunscreens to block off the vitamin D-generating ultraviolet rays of the sun, are particularly susceptible to an over-reactive immune system.
The above are the first to get a winter cold or the flu. Have you ever wondered why there is no flu season in the summer? It’s because most people spend more time in the outdoors during the warmer summer months which allows them to replenish their vitamin D stores and makes them less prone to falling ill.
A paper covering research conducted at major American universities has shown that many common diseases are linked with low levels of vitamin D. According to the paper which was published in the Journal of American College of Cardiology in 2008 (2008:52:1949–56), low vitamin D levels have been documented in patients with myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, and cardiovascular disease. Chronic vitamin D deficiency can cause secondary hyperparathyroidism, which predisposes patients to inflammation, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes mellitus.
Furthermore, in the United States, cancer rates and cases of multiple sclerosis are more prevalent in the Northeast, where people tend to be more vitamin D deficient than in the South or Southwest, where it is a lot warmer and sunnier during the winter months.
Also, obese persons, smokers, and those using medications (e.g. anticonvulsants, glucocorticoids, antiretrovirals), as well as the institutionalized, are more likely to be vitamin D deficient. Persons who are dark-skinned but reside in less sunny countries or states, or who neglect spending a lot of time in the sun, are often the most vitamin D deficient. Hence their generally higher risk of infection, cancer, heart disease and diabetes.
A study published in the Virology Journal in 2008, and confirmed by another study in 2009 that involved 19,000 Americans, found that people with the lowest blood vitamin D levels reported having significantly more recent colds or cases of the flu.
In conclusion, lead author of the study, Dr Adit Ginde, stated: “The findings of our study support an important role for vitamin D in prevention of common respiratory infections such as colds and the flu. Individuals with common lung diseases, such as asthma or emphysema, may be particularly susceptible to respiratory infections from vitamin D deficiency.”
Why do we need to expose our bodies to potentially life-threatening vaccines for all kinds of diseases when we can remain disease-free by exposing our skin to the sun? (See also my book, Heal Yourself with Sunlight).
And there is more on the role of Vitamin D later.
7. What’s In That Vial?
So briefly, what is this highly-potent, poisonous cocktail introduced into the human body? Injected, taken orally or even sniffed as in the case of some flu vaccines, this concoction attempts to induce immunity by forcing bits and pieces of disease-causing agents or pathogens into the body.
These are foreign bodies such as a bacteria, viruses or genetic material from these pathogens, which are usually nurtured and cultured in the bodies of infected animals, to force an immunological response.
As soon as the human body detects the presence of a foreign body (one which does not have a ‘self-marker’) or an antigen, it produces antibodies to neutralize these toxins, foreign cells and injurious materials, and to heal any injuries that they may have caused.
Antibodies are protein molecules that bind to antigens and may be disease-specific. As soon as the antigen and antibody lock into each other, the body’s immune system is triggered to fight the intruder, according to theories taught at medical schools.
It is assumed that once an individual’s bloodstream contains the antibodies (either forcibly produced by vaccines or naturally produced from a previous bout of a disease) to a particular pathogen, the human body is protected against the disease ‘caused’ by that particular pathogen for life.
However, there is a crucial difference in immunity acquired naturally (from a previous bout) and that which is thrust upon an unsuspecting immune system. The natural routes for pathogens to enter the body are the mucous membranes of nostrils, the mouth, the lips, the eyelids, the ears, the genital area, and the anus. Injecting pathogens directly into the blood is an unnatural route and act of violence that disrupts, and interferes with, the very design of the body’s self-preserving, protective mechanisms.
These mucus membranes form the body’s first line of defense to trap and digest microorganisms (using enzymes) that offer no benefit to the host as long as the cells and organs remain well nourished and healthy.
Please be reminded at this point that bacteria and viruses do no harm to the body. They become pathogenic (disease–generating) only when the body’s level of toxicity has led to considerable cell damage or cell decay and an infection becomes necessary to decompose the cell debris and stimulate the immune system to repair and heal the damage. The mucus membranes form an essential part of the body’s detoxification system to ensure that this doesn’t need to happen.
Bypassing this first line of defense, which is also called ‘IgA immune system’, leaves gaping holes in the body’s self-protective ‘armor’. It doesn’t take too well to artificial immunization measures and hence revolts in many ways. One way is by actually causing the disease the vaccine was meant to prevent.
Getting the disease for which you receive the vaccine, such as mumps, may actually be a blessing for the afflicted and bestow true immunity to the disease. This may account for some of the disease-preventing effects of vaccines that have been witnessed in a small number of vaccinated individuals. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the vaccinated population doesn’t fall sick. If it did, vaccination could actually have some value. However, if an adjuvant such as aluminum or squalene is added to the vaccine, which is now typical for most vaccines, it can cause your immune system to overreact to the introduction of the organism you are being vaccinated against.
On such occasions, the human body is helpless against the foreign material and is overwhelmed by the antigens and the resulting overreaction of the immune system. This often gives rise to debilitating symptoms (among the agents most often introduced through vaccines is thimerosal, which is linked to neurological damage in the brain), crippling side effects (See Chapters 5 & 6: The Vaccine Hangover & Autism: Merury Assault) and even life-threatening conditions.
Despite documented evidence that links vaccination to disease and injury, modern medicine insists that vaccines are a type of ‘health insurance’. But just so you know your facts, here is a brief look at what these chemicals contain.
Antigen: At the crux of every vaccine is the disease-causing microorganism or pathogen against which immunity is sought to be induced.
Preservatives: Preservatives are used to increase the shelf-life of a vaccine by preventing bacteria and fungi from invading it. In the US, the FDA allows the use of three preservatives: phenol, 2-phenoxyethanol and thimerosal. (See Chapter 6: Autism: Mercury Assault)
Adjuvants: Adjuvants enhance the body’s immune response immediately after the vaccine is introduced. Though highly dangerous and known to even cause cytokine storms that lead to swift death, pharma companies continue to use adjuvants as ‘boosters’ in their vaccines.
Another compelling reason for the use of adjuvants is that these chemicals, by turbo-charging vaccines, allow drug companies to use less of the antigen in each dose so that they can make more doses. Do the math: More doses means bigger profits.
Aluminum salts are the most widely used adjuvants employed by drug manufacturers. They include: aluminum phosphate, aluminum hydroxide, aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate and potassium aluminum sulfate or simply alum.
Till recently, aluminum salts were the only adjuvants vaccine-makers in the US were allowed to use. However, with the FDA toying with the idea of allowing squalene as an adjuvant, there is growing alarm that this chemical, which played havoc with US Gulf War veterans, may be licensed for mass use in the US. (See Chapter 3: Is There A Conspiracy?: The War Within).
Additives or Stabilizing Agents: Stabilizing agents protect vaccines from getting damaged or losing their efficacy under certain conditions such as freeze-drying and heat. They also prevent the antigen from sticking to the side of the vaccine vial, and the components of the vaccine from separating.
Common additives include sugars such as sucrose and lactose; amino acids such as glycine, monosodium glutamate; and proteins such as gelatin or human serum albumin.
Concerns regarding these additives center around the use of gelatin, human serum albumin and material derived from bovines, especially cows. While gelatin is suspected to precipitate hypersensitivity reactions, human serum albumin (derived from dead human fetuses) could introduce pathogens into the body.
Material taken from cattle came into focus with the outbreak of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy or ‘mad cow disease’ in England in the 1980s. I’ve discussed this controversy in detail at the end of this chapter.
Residual Agents: Residual agents are used during the production process to inactivate the live pathogen and to culture the virus. They are eventually removed from the vaccine, or at least that is what vaccine-makers claim.
Residual agents include bovine serum (a popular agent used to grow the virus in cell cultures); formaldehyde (used as an inactivating agent); and antibiotics such as neomycin, streptomycin and polymyxin B to prevent bacterial contamination.
Animal Products: Animal products are most frequently used in vaccine production as the medium in which the virus is cultured and grown. They perform two essential functions: they provide nutrition to the pathogen and they provide cell lines that help it replicate to make the millions of doses that are then commercially sold.
Animals whose organs, tissues, blood and serum are commonly used to make vaccines are monkeys, cows, sheep, chickens, pigs and occasionally dogs and rabbits.
Human Products: Human fetal cells (human diploid cells) divide indefinitely and are used to make cell lines that make a virus replicate. For instance, the rubella virus is grown in human tissue culture as the virus is incapable of infecting animals.
After a virus is cultured, the pathogen is purified while removing it from the growth culture. However, traces of genetic material from the culture often remain in the vaccine.
This presents a real and ever-present danger. If the host animal or human being is infected, secondary pathogens are likely to be passed on during vaccination.
This is exactly what happened when the polio vaccine, grown in monkey kidney cells, were later found to be contaminated with the Simian Vacuolating Virus 40 or SV40. (See Chapter 2: Historical Blunders).
Having looked at the broad categories of components in vaccines, here is a list of some toxic agents (with documented side effects) used in their production.
• Acetone: Nail polish remover
• Oil Adjuvants: A neurotoxin linked to Alzheimer’s disease and seizures. It can also precipitate arthritis
• Formaldehyde: A carcinogenic agent used as an embalming fluid
• Ethylene Glycol: Antifreeze widely used in car engines
• Triton X100: A detergent
• Glycerin: Can damage internal organs such as the lungs, liver and kidneys and gastrointestinal tract
• Monosodium glutamate (MSG): According to the FDA, MSG Symptom Complex or MSG side effects can result in numbness, burning sensation, tingling, facial pressure or tightness, chest pain, headache, nausea, rapid heartbeat, drowsiness, weakness, and difficulty in breathing for asthmatics. More specifically, studies have shown that MSG can cause arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation, tachycardia, rapid heartbeat, palpitations, slow heartbeat, angina, extreme rise or drop in blood pressure, swelling, diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, stomach cramps, rectal bleeding, bloating, flu-like achiness, joint pain, stiffness, depression, mood swings, rage reactions, migraine headache, dizziness, light-headedness, loss of balance, disorientation, mental confusion, anxiety, panic attacks, hyperactivity, behavioral problems in children, attention deficit disorders, lethargy, sleepiness, insomnia, numbness or paralysis, seizures, sciatica, slurred speech, chills and shakes, shuddering, blurred vision, difficulty focusing, pressure around eyes, asthma, shortness of breath, chest pain, tightness in the chest, runny nose, sneezing, frequent bladder pain, swelling of the prostate, swelling of the vagina, vaginal spotting, frequent urination, nocturia, hives (may be both internal and external), rash, mouth lesions, temporary tightness or partial paralysis, numbness or tingling of the skin, flushing, extreme dryness of the mouth, face swelling, tongue swelling, bags under eyes
• Phenol or Carbolic Acid: A lethal toxin used in household and industrial products as a disinfectant as well as a dye
• Thimerosal (derivative of mercury): A toxic heavy metal used as a preservative. Closely linked to autism, autoimmune diseases and other neuro-developmental disorders
• Aluminum: A metallic element which, besides damaging the brain in children, can also predispose adults to neurological problems such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia
• Polysorbate 80 (Tween80™): An emulsifier that can cause severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. In addition, according to a Slovakian study on rats published in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology in 1993, Tween80 can lead to infertility. Tween80 accelerated the rats’ maturation, prolonged the estrous cycle, decreased the weight of the uterus and ovaries, and caused damage to the lining of the uterus indicative of chronic estrogenic stimulation.
• All this makes me wonder why so many millions of people started to get afflicted with the diseases that are listed as side effects of these toxins after mass vaccinations were introduced into modern societies. Most of these diseases were nearly unheard of before the vaccine-mania began.
8. Vaccine ‘Mistakes’
The danger from vaccines doesn’t come only from these dangerous ingredients that go into them. There are other grave concerns. Among these are the vast gaps in scientific knowledge that exist in modern medicine. These gaps are then filled by what researchers call ‘theories’, which become the basis of government policies and even the production of medicines to ostensibly prevent disease.
When these mistakes are ‘careless slip-ups’ made by pharma companies, lives are lost and many people left diseased and dangerously ill. The fallout of the mad cow disease outbreak and the way it was handled by both governments and drug companies has left a controversial legacy that still affects human lives.
Mad cow disease is also called Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy or BSE, which was first observed in cattle in the mid-1980s in the UK. It is a fatal neurodegenerative disease, whereby infected proteins called prions invade the brain, spinal cord as well as other tissues in the affected cattle. These prions literally eat away at the soft brain tissue, creating holes that leave the brain tissue looking like a sponge.
Around a decade after the outbreak, in the mid-1990s, doctors in the UK observed a disease in human beings they believed had been contracted by eating beef and other animal products from cows infected with BSE.
The disease was first noticed in 1996 and was deemed to be a variant of a disease called Creutzfeldt–Jakob Disease or vCJD. Since vCJD has a long gestation period of several years, it was presumed that the victims had once eaten beef and other products from BSE-infected cows a decade earlier. The disease had claimed more than 160 human lives in Britain by 2009.
Both mad cow disease and vCJD are types of spongiform encephalopathy. However, to date, science has been unable to prove a causal link between the two. How do we know for sure that vCJD, first described by the scientists who lent their names to the disease back in the 1920s, did not evolve into a new strain independent of the animal variant?
Yet, fuelled by hysteria whipped up by the scientific and medical community, the British government opened floodgates of funding of research into vCJD, a move motivated perhaps more by politics than science.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) itself states that “the hypothesis of a link between vCJD and BSE was first raised because of the association of these two TSEs (Transmittable Spongiform Encephalopathy) in time and place”.
It adds: “More recent evidence supporting a link includes identification of pathological features similar to vCJD in the brains of macaque monkeys inoculated with BSE. A vCJD-BSE link is further supported by the demonstration that vCJD is associated with a molecular marker that distinguishes it from other forms of CJD and which resembles that seen in BSE transmitted to a number of other species.”
However, if vCJD did indeed arise from ‘mad cows’, then the consequences may have already proved fatal. The shocking truth is that despite being aware of the risks of using bovine material (tissue, calf serum, cow hide and bones used to make gelatin for virus culture) in the production of vaccines, drug companies in the UK covertly continue to use bovine material to make their vaccines.
An investigation conducted by the British newspaper The Daily Express in May 2, 2000, revealed that seven vaccines were at risk of being contaminated. These vaccines had been administered to millions of children made between 1988 and 1989 and administered until 1993.
Vaccines made by two drug majors in particular were identified:
• MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella) vaccine (GlaxoSmithKline)
• Various vaccines for Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis (Wellcome)
• Oral polio vaccine (Wellcome)
• Inactivated polio vaccine (GlaxoSmithKline)
Alarm bells also went off in the US, which subsequently drew up a list of suspect vaccines. The health authorities in the US suspected that the bovine material used to make them had come from countries that were affected by mad cow disease. The list included:
• OmniHIB or flu shots (Aventis Pasteur)
• Combination vaccines for diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus (North American Vaccine and GlaxoSmithKline)
• Havrix hepatitis-A vaccine (GlaxoSmithKline)
The above data illustrates just how governments and policy makers take sweeping decisions based on pure hypothesis and how unscrupulous drug companies knowingly indulge in criminal (mal)practices with no regard for the lives they claim to protect.
At the end of it all, do we really know what’s going into that vial?
