Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 SSRI-Research@ Fri, 10 Mar 2006 18:41:52 -0500 [sSRI-Research] The Fraud Of Vaccination The Fraud Of Vaccination http://www.mercola.com/2001/may/5/vaccination_fraud.htm People have been solemnly warned that the reason why smallpox has just broken out is because our population is unvaccinated; yet Dr. Killick Millard complains of primary vaccination as liable to make smallpox mild and unrecognised, so that the element of danger lies in the vaccinated! He has his excuse in the circumstance that these have always started epidemics. The Origin Of Vaccination Why do people believe in vaccination? Jenner's idea was based solely upon a dairymaid's superstition. He sought to give it a scientific air by calling cowpox (a disease which bears no analogy to smallpox) variolae vaccinae -- i.e., smallpox of the cow. The Latin name was not without its effect, and anything that promised less harmful results than the prevailing practice of the direct inoculation of smallpox matter (which had been killing people by hundreds, and afterwards had to be forbidden by Act of Parliament) was acceptable at the time to the frightened and gullible population. The rest was an affair of influence. When once an error is accepted by a profession corporately and endowed by Government, to uproot it becomes a herculean task, beside which the entrance of a rich man into the Kingdom of Heaven is easy. The Compulsory Vaccination Act was passed in 1853; a still more stringent one followed in 1867. And between the years 1871 and 1880 there were 57,016 smallpox deaths. Compare this with the small number in the present day, when considerably more than half the population is unvaccinated, and when awful warnings are periodically uttered about the decimating scourge always " bound to come, " which never arrives! Between 1911 and 1920 the deaths numbered only 110. Let us look at the most recent Annual report of the Registrar-General -- the eighty-third. He states that during the last 15 years 53 vaccinated persons have died of smallpox. In addition, there were 92 other deaths of the " doubtful " class mentioned above; that is, those declared by patients or friends to have been vaccinated, but which have been entered by medical officials as " doubtful " rather than take the slight trouble of searching the registers for verification. We may conclude, therefore, that there were 145 cases of smallpox deaths in vaccinated persons in this country during the last 15 years. And yet there were only 78 unvaccinaed deaths during the same period. Thus, the rate of vaccinated to unvaccinated deaths is nearly two to one. This is the more remarkable seeing that during this same 15 years England has been largely unvaccinated, probably to the extent of about 75 per cent. Dangers Of Vaccination But the tragedy of the whole sorry business is this: That during thc same 15-year period there is recorded by the same authority the terrible toll of 165 deaths from " cowpox and other effects of vaccination! " In short, vaccination not only failed to save 145 persons from death, but actually killed another 165 in addition! Hence, whereas 78 are alleged to have died because the " preventive " had not been resorted to, more than double that number died from the effects of its use. What have the scaremongers who boast of the " certain and harmless preventive " to say to this? The only way, so far as I can see, that those 165 poor little victims of the eighteenth century Gloucestershire dairymaid's superstition were prevented from having smallpox (if they were ever likely to get it) was in being killed by the " preventive " before the disease could attack them. In some years more persons have been officially certified as killed by vaccination than by smallpox. Besides this, enormous numbers are left with some permanent disability, a fact to which parents, at least, can testify. Meanwhile, whenever smallpox comes, it is promptly and easily dealt with, and fails to spread beyond a limited time and area. Sanitation has practically banished the disease, just as it banished black death, cholera, and typhus. It would appear that vaccination, so far from aiding, actually retarded the decline, for the Registrar-General reported in 1880 that it was the only gross zymotic which showed a rise in the death-rate -- that is, after 30 years of compulsory vaccination. The Gloucester Epidemic The advocates of vaccination are never tired of quoting the smallpox epidemic which occurred in Gloucester in1895-6. A picture of Gloucester Cemetery is often presented, apparently with the idea of impressing an ex parte statement upon the memory. Where the picture itself cannot be given, the statement alone is made -- viz., that 279 unvaccinated children lie buried in that cemetery (the picturesque detail is never by any chance omitted), together with only one out of some 8,000 children said to be vaccinated before or during the epidemic. The latter figure may be correct officially, but it is incorrect actually, for I worked in Gloucester at the time and came into personal contact with the cases, and I have the names and addresses of 116 vaccinated children up to ten years of age attacked by the disease, of whom 27 died. The truth is that the whole child population of Gloucester was practically an unvaccinated population, the vaccinated numbering only 4 per cent.; hence the greater number of unvaccinated attacked is easily explained. Ten thousand unvaccinated children passed through that epidemic unscathed. The severity of the scourge was due to sanitary defects, which were afterwards remedied at great cost, to the fact that the disease broke out and spread like wildfire in a large unsanitary elementary school, where the vaccinated teacher was the first to succumb, and to the utterly disgraceful hospital conditions to which these little patients were removed. Out of the 1,979 total cases; about 1,750 occurred in the southern half of Gloucester, where the sanitary defects above mentioned existed, the unvaccinated children of time northern half escaping practically unscathed. Nearly two-thirds of those attacked -- viz., 1,211 out of 1,979 -- were vaccinated, in spite of the fact that Gloucester was an " unvaccinated city. " Germany And The Philippines No European country has had such severe vaccination laws as Germany. They started in 1834, and enforced continual re-vaccinations. Yet in 1871-2 smallpox carried off no fewer than 124,948 in Prussia alone. In Berlin itself there were 17,038 vaccinated cases of smallpox, of whom 2,240 were under ten years of age, and of these vaccinated children 736 died. A particularly interesting case is that of the Philippines. When these islands fell into the hands of the Americans a vast vaccination scheme was carried out, and smallpox, which had naturally been a scourge among the inhabitants owing to the bad sanitary conditions, declined just in proportion as these were remedied. The result was, of course, put down to vaccination, though there is a certain humour in the circumstance that, while the natives were suffering less from smallpox, the vaccinated and re-vaccinated American soldiers fell victims to it, dying at a percentage three times higher than that which obtained among the unvaccinated people they had come to instruct. Of course, the usual thorough system of cleansing, finding its parallel later in the Panama region, was pursued, and for many years it was the great boast of the disciples of Jenner that smallpox was banished from the Philippines. They boasted too soon. Within the last few years, in spite of the rigorous vaccination laws, the disease has regained its old virulence, and there were no fewer than 60,612 cases and 43,294 deaths from smallpox in the Philippines during 1919 -- an enormous toll in a population of something under 11,000,000. Whenever laxity in sanitation occurs, it is clear that smallpox ignores vaccination, just as typhoid fever ignored inoculation during the war under similar conditions. The Americans, content with having once cleansed the Philippines, no doubt shut their eyes to many unhygienic practices. It is one thing to teach natives how to live and start them on a right path, but quite another to see that they keep to it. Vaccination, however, never suffers neglect so long as medical officials are maintained for the performance of the rite; and it is somewhat amusing to find that the Filipinos, horror-stricken at the toll smallpox has been taking, have attacked vaccination itself as the originating cause which seems to them time most probable. From " Truth, " January 3, 1923 -------- Dr. Mercola's Comment: Many skeptics of the dangers of vaccines will question the issue of smallpox and how the administration of the vaccine was able to rid the world of smallpox in (last recorded case I believe was in Merkle, Somalia 1976). However, it is interesting to review what some physicians were writing about smallpox vaccination three generations ago. It is clearly obvious from these writings and common sense that hygiene and nutrition have enormous influences on the course of not only smallpox, but nearly every infectious illness.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Theres a good comment on this in last months LCAA Magazine- I've put an extract at the end. Incidentliy they are giving away (as in Free) a sample copy of the magazine this week so some of you might be interested. You can get it directly from the website at www.lowcarbandatkins.com Anyway heres the article and there are some more like it that are quite cutting too. All the best Ed More and more cases are showing the chickenpox vaccine to not work. In a Wisconsin school district 44 grade-schoolers got chicken pox even though all but 2 kids were vaccinated. You would never pay money for any other product with this kind of track record yet Texas, Wisconsin and almost every state forces children to get this shot as a condition of attending school or day care. A portion of your personal pay check that goes to your federal and state taxes is directed to purchasing this vaccine for millions of children in mediacaid and the Vaccine For Children Program children across the country. It is time to stop forcing people to get this shot and it is especially time to stop the American taxpayers from paying for it. http://www.winonadailynews.com/articles/2006/01/20/news/03pox.txt In the USA the cost of a single DTP shot has risen from 11cents in 1982 to $11.40 in 1987. This was because the manufacturers of the vaccine were having to put aside over $8 a shot to cover the legal costs in damages that they were paying out to the parents of brain- damaged children, and children who died after vaccination. It's also worthy to note that between 1988 and 1989 a polio outbreak occurred among thousands of fully vaccinated children, and comparing the figures the region with the highest attack rate also had the highest vaccine coverage. Conversely, the region with the lowest attack rate had the lowest vaccine coverage. Back in 1990, a survey in the UK involving nearly 600 doctors, revealed that 300 of them or so, had refused to have the hepatitis B vaccine, despite the fact that they belonged to a high-risk group that were urged to be vaccinated by the British Health authority. In the same year, the journal of the American Medical Association ran an article on measles, which stated " although more than 95% of school- aged children in the US are vaccinated against measles, large measles outbreaks continue to occur in schools, and in most cases this setting occurs among previously vaccinated children. " (JAMA 2.1.11.90) In the three years up to November 1993, the US FDA (Food & Drug Administration) observed a total number of 54,072 adverse reactions following vaccinations. But the most striking point about this figure is that the FDA admitted that this number represented only possibly 10% of the real total. That's because most doctors were refusing to report vaccine injuries. To put that another way: adverse reactions to a vaccination for that period were reported by more than half a million people. New England Journal of Medicine in July 1994, issued a study that found over 80% of children under 5 who had contracted whooping cough, had also been fully vaccinated. As late as November 2000, the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons announced that its members had voted to pass a resolution calling for an end to mandatory childhood vaccinations. Tellingly, the resolution passed without a single " no " vote. Extract from Lowcarb and Atkins Monthly Feb 2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
