Unintended Consequences of Mass Vaccination

For decades, public health agencies have been focusing on demonstrating the reduction in vaccine-preventable disease incidence following the introduction of vaccination programs, while disregarding the unintended consequences such programs may have had on overall infectious disease epidemiology and long-term levels of the population’s immunity.  Such unintended consequences include the phenomenon of strain replacement, the rise

Community Immunity

Community immunity is the new “herd immunity.” The CDC defines community immunity as “[a] situation in which a sufficient proportion of a population is immune to an infectious disease (through vaccination and/or prior illness) to make its spread from person to person unlikely. Even individuals not vaccinated (such as newborns and those with chronic illnesses)

Did Vaccines Really Save Us?

“As with mandatory influenza vaccination, there is insufficient evidence that mandatory measles vaccination results in a net public health benefit.” – Physicians for Informed Consent, a letter to the British Medical Journal But that fact doesn’t increase vaccination rates–fear of infection does. How do we go from calm acceptance of a once common childhood infection

The BMJ Corrections

In February of 1998, the Lancet published the paper “Ileal-lymphoid-nodular hyperplasia, non-specific colitis, and pervasive developmental disorder in children” as an “Early Report” and identified it as a case series. The thirteen authors’ wrote: “We identified associated gastrointestinal disease and developmental regression in a group of previously normal children, which was generally associated in time

Human Fetal Cells

Q: Are aborted fetal cell lines used in vaccine manufacturing? A: Yes, human fetal cell lines are used to culture some vaccines. You will see them listed on the CDCs Vaccine Excipient list as WI-38, MRC-5, HEK293.   WI-38 is a diploid human cell culture line composed of fibroblasts derived from lung tissue of an

Tylenol

New study states: Ystrom, Eivind, et al. “Prenatal Exposure to Acetaminophen and Risk of ADHD.” Pediatrics, American Academy of Pediatrics, 30 Oct. 2017, pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2017/10/26/peds.2016-3840. Tylenol should be avoided during pregnancy and childhood. If given before or after vaccinations, Tylenol increases risk of adverse reaction. Please educate your doctor. Tylenol (Acetaminophen) depletes glutathione levels and impairs

Pertussis (Whooping Cough)

A 2019 paper confirms acellular pertussis vaccines increase lifetime susceptibility to whooping cough. “. . . .all children who were primed by DTaP vaccines will be more susceptible to pertussis throughout their lifetimes, and there is no easy way to decrease this increased lifetime susceptibility.” James D Cherry; The 112-Year Odyssey of Pertussis and Pertussis

Responsible Vaccination Choices

Vaccinating or not vaccinating comes with responsibility to oneself, one’s children, and the community.  Both vaccinated and non-vaccinated people are capable of being infected and spreading some infections. Vaccination also adds the risk of an acute vaccine reaction or long-term vaccine injury.  It’s important to know the risks, benefits, and limitations of each choice and

Mitochondria

What are mitochondrial diseases or disorders? The CDC explains: “Mitochondria are tiny parts of almost every cell in your body. Mitochondria are like the power house of the cells. They turn sugar and oxygen into energy that the cells need to work. In mitochondrial diseases, the mitochondria cannot efficiently turn sugar and oxygen into energy,
