“May as well consult a butcher on the value of vegetarianism as a doctor on the worth of vaccination.” April 10, 2007
This confirms my gut instinct for not vaccinating our five children or ourselves,
Of all my friends who do not vaccinate their children seem to stay more healthy then my friends who do, a whole handful of my friends who used to vaccinate their kids do not do it any more based on their own research, I have known three infants to die of sids right after getting their first round of shots.
My mom did not vaccinate any of us but my brother and I convinced her to vaccinate all of us, after we got our first round of shots we all got chickenpox, I got the Flu for the first time with a 107 temp and I was hallucinating, we had NEVER had the flu or colds or anything prior, I got excema all over my hand with I learned is the first sign of a weakened immune system, and then I got asthma, I had anxiety attacks for 7 years after getting the Flu and the 107 temp.
I will never ever allow my kids to be vaccinated and I will teach them that it is bad for them and their health.
What really sold me on not doing it when I was pregnant with Anna, was when a friend in Seattle told me that he had done all of his own research, through the health department and he found out that most all of the people in Seattle who came down with a communicable disease had already been vaccinated, he also found out from the health department that there was barely any record of the non vaccinated children or adults getting the diseases from the vaccinated who were sick…HUH??
I have had Dr.’s yell at me and say I was a bad mother, I never went back to them, and I have had Dr.’s barely bat a eye when I told them I was not going to get them vaccinated, but the real proof that vaccines are a money making business was when Basil was considered “special needs” for his kidney problem, I took him in for his one week check up to a renowned Dr. in LA. I told the Dr. We are not immunizing Basil, so when should I bring him in for his “well baby check ups” he said to me “Never” I said “WHAT???? what about his kidney problem doesn’t he need to be weighed and checked and his heart listened too??” He said “NO, just bring him to get weighed, you don’t even need to make a appointment just, bring him in and you can weigh him if your worried about his weight.” And I said “let me get this straight he has a disability that can affect his growth and his whole system could shut down, but he does not need to be seen by you his Dr. ever???” he said No.
So how in the Heck are you going to get any money???? I thought??
So little Basil almost five has never been to the Dr. since and no kidney failure or problems.
here are some quotes I found on the subject:
“My suspicion, which is shared by others in my profession, is that the nearly 10,000 SIDS deaths that occur in the United States each year are related to one or more of the vaccines that are routinely given children. The pertussis vaccine is the most likely villain, but it could also be one or more of the others.” –Dr. Mendelsohn, M.D.
“The evidence for indicting immunizations for SIDS is circumstantial, but compelling. However, the keepers of the keys to medical-research funds are not interested in researching this very important lead to the cause of an ongoing, and possibly preventable, tragedy. Anything that implies that immunizations are not the greatest medical advance in the history of public health is ignored or ridiculed. Can you imagine the economic and political import of discovering that immunizations are killing thousands of babies?” –Dr. Douglass M.D.
“Only after realizing that routine immunizations were dangerous did I achieve a substantial drop in infant death rates. The worst vaccine of all is the whooping cough vaccine… it is responsible for a lot of deaths and for a lot of infants suffering irreversible brain damage. In susceptible infants, it knocks their immune systems about, leading to irreparable brain damage, or severe attacks or even deaths from diseases like pneumonia or gastroenteritis and so on.” –Dr. Kalokerinos, M.D.
“Delay of DPT immunization until 2 years of age in Japan has resulted in a dramatic decline in adverse side effects. In the period of 1970-1974, when DPT vaccination was begun at 3 to 5 months of age, the Japanese national compensation system paid out claims for 57 permanent severe damage vaccine cases, and 37 deaths. During the ensuing six year period 1975-1980, when DPT injections were delayed to 24 months of age, severe reactions from the vaccine were reduced to a total of eight with three deaths. This represents an 85 to 90 percent reduction in severe cases of damage and death.” –Raymond Obomsawin, M.D.
“Autism may be a disorder linked to the disruption of the G-alpha protein, affecting retinoid receptors in the brain. A study of sixty autistic children suggests that autism may be caused by inserting a G-alpha protein defect, the pertussis toxin found in the D.P.T. vaccine, into genetically at-risk children.” –Mary N. Megson, M.D.
“This report describes six mothers who received live virus vaccines and one who received a Hepatitis B vaccine during pregnancy after having received an MMR booster five months prior to conception. All the children who resulted from these pregnancies have had developmental problems, six out seven (85%) were diagnosed with autism, and the seventh seems to exhibit symptoms often associated with autistic spectrum disorders.” –F. EdwardYazbak, MD
“Every day new parents are ringing us. They all have the same tragic story. Healthy baby, child, teenager, usually a boy, given the DPT (diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus) or DT (diphtheria and tetanus), MMR or MMR booster followed by a sudden fall or slow, but steady decline into autism or other spectrums disorder.”–The Hope Project (Ireland)
“There is no evidence whatsoever of the ability of vaccines to prevent any diseases. To the contrary, there is a great wealth of evidence that they cause serious side effects.” — Dr. Viera Scheibner
“My data proves that the studies used to support immunization are so flawed that it is impossible to say if immunization provides a net benefit to anyone or to society in general. This question can only be determined by proper studies which have never been performed. The flaw of previous studies is that there was no long term follow up and chronic toxicity was not looked at. The American Society of Microbiology has promoted my research…and thus acknowledges the need for proper studies.” –John B.Classen, M.D., M.B.A.
Jonas Salk, inventor of the IPV, testified before a Senate subcommittee that nearly all polio outbreaks since 1961 were caused by the oral polio vaccine.
“Crib death” was so infrequent in the pre-vaccination era that it was not even mentioned in the statistics, but it started to climb in the 1950s with the spread of mass vaccination against diseases of childhood. –Harris L.Coulter, PhD.
“These data show that DPT vaccination may be a generally unrecognized major cause of sudden infant and early childhood death, and that the risks of immunization may outweigh its potential benefits. A need for re-evaluation and possible modification of current vaccination procedures is indicated by this study.” –William C. Torch, M.D., Director of Child Neurology, Department of Pediatrics, University of Nevada School of Medicine
“You cannot be in the presence of a profoundly vaccine damaged child and not know that child could be your own. And you cannot try to comfort a mother who has just buried a baby who has died from a vaccine or a disease and not know that you could be the one standing over the grave. When it happens to your child, the risks are 100 percent.” -Anonymous
“Vaccination is not necessary, not useful, does not protect. There are twice as many casualties from vaccination as from AIDS.” –Dr. Gerhard Buchwald, West Germany, specialist of internal diseases and participant in about 150 trials of vaccination victims.
Dr. Michael Odent has written a letter in the JAMA (1994) where his figures show a five times higher rate of asthma in pertussis immunized children compared to non-immunized children. He is also quoted in the International Vaccination Newsletter (Sept. 1994): “Immunized children have more ear infections and spend more days in hospital.”
“The public is surely entitled to convincing proof, beyond all reasonable doubt, that artificial immunization is in fact a safe and effective procedure, in no way injurious to health, and that the threat of the corresponding natural diseases remain sufficiently clear and urgent to warrant mass inoculation of everyone, even against their will if necessary. Unfortunately, such proof has never been given.” –Richard Moskowitz, M.D., Journal of the American Institute of Homeopathy, March 1983 (76:7)
“Vaccination is expensive and represents a cost of one billion dollars annually. It therefore benefits the industry; most notably, the multinational manufacturers. One sells the vaccines. The other then provides the arsenal of medications to respond to the numerous complications that follow. Their profits increase while our expenses go through the roof. To the point where we have simply had it up to here and are ready to accept the unacceptable, such as socialized medicine in the United States, for example.” –Dr Lanctot MD
“This..forced me to look into the question of vaccination further, and the further I looked the more shocked I became. I found that the whole vaccine business was indeed a gigantic hoax. Most doctors are convinced that they are useful, but if you look at the proper statistics and study the instances of these diseases you will realize that this is not so . . . My final conclusion after forty years or more in this business [medicine] is that the unofficial policy of the World Health Organization and the unofficial policy of the ‘Save the Children’s Fund’ and … [other vaccine promoting] organizations is one of murder and genocide. . . . I cannot see any other possible explanation. . . . You cannot immunize sick children, malnourished children, and expect to get away with it. You’ll kill far more children than would have died from natural infection.” –Dr Kalokerinos MD
“Two or three years ago there was a rash of positive HIV and hepatitis patients in Baltimore among people who would otherwise not be expected to have a positive test. When studied all of these people had received the influenza vaccine four to six weeks prior and this was rapidly covered up by the press.” — Dr. Eva Snead, Feb 2000
If vaccines are so effective in preventing disease why have epidemics occurred around the world following mass vaccination programs? In the Philippines for example, “after ten years of compulsory inoculation against smallpox (25 million shots) over 170,000 got smallpox and 75,000 deaths were recorded between 1911 and 1920″ (from the Townsend Letter for Doctors article “Are Vaccines Generally Detrimental to the Human Defense System,” Feb/Mar 1994).
“Sudden Infant Death Syndrome has been reported following administration of DPT. The significance is unclear. 85% of SIDS cases occur in the period 1 through 6 months of age, with the peak incidence at age 2 to 4 months.” –From the accompanying insert to Connaught Labs DPT shot.
“There has been a frightening increase in cases of autism that has not been explained. There are a number of anecdotal reports from parents that symptoms of autism have appeared close to the time of the (MMR) vaccine.” Jane Orient, M.D., executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons and clinical lecturer in medicine at the University of Arizona College of Medicine, and a professor of clinical medicine at the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine.
Even the WHO (World Health Organization) has admitted, disease and mortality rates in Third World countries have no direct correlation with immunization procedures or medical treatment, but they are closely related to the standard of hygiene and diet. A 1973 issue of Scientific American revealed the same finding : that “over 90% of all contagious disease was eliminated by vastly improved water systems, sanitation, living conditions and transportation of food.” Mass vaccinations did not appear on the scene until a century after the decline in infectious diseases started (1850-1940), but inoculations were, and still are given full credit. –Susan DeSimone
“Up to 90% of the total decline in the death rate of children between 1860-1965 because of whooping cough, scarlet fever, diphtheria, and measles occurred before the introduction of immunizations and antibiotics.” —Dr. Archie Kalokerinos, M.D.
“The mechanics of vaccination to build immunity, on the other hand, is quite unnatural. Rather than space exposure to a relatively minuscule level of micro-organisms in a gradual manner, massive quantities of antigens are introduced into the body through a series of vaccinations that are given right in a row over a short period of time. All vaccines, with the exception of the OPV (oral polio vaccination) are injected directly into the bloodstream, by-passing the mucosal immune system known as the secretory IgA. The secretory IgA is the first in a series of defensive levels within the immune system. It serves as a buffer, filtering microbes so that the impact of these invading organisms is greatly reduced once it reaches the bloodstream. The IgA allows the antigen to be removed in the same manner in which it arrived - through the mucosal barrier - by sneezing, coughing and sweating. So a vaccine that has been injected “gives the body no warning, no generalized inflammatory response, no chance to recognize, duplicate or defend itself against future challenges from typical antigens,” writes Dr. Mendelsohn in How to Raise a Healthy Child In Spite of Your Doctor.
“I’ve been practicing for 40 years, and in the past 10 years the children have been sicker than ever.”–Dr Doris J.Rapp, pediatric allergist.
“Measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, and the whole panoply of childhood diseases are a far less serious threat than having a large fraction (say 10%) of a generation afflicted with learning disability and/or uncontrollable aggressive behavior because of an impassioned crusade for universal vaccination……Public policy regarding vaccines is fundamentally flawed. It is permeated by conflicts of interest. It is based on poor scientific methodology (including studies that are too small, too short, and too limited in populations represented), which is, moreover, insulated from independent criticism. The evidence is far too poor to warrant overriding the independent judgements of patients, parents, and attending physicians, even if this were ethically or legally acceptable.” –Association Of American Physicians & Surgeons
“If you want the truth on vaccination you must go to those who are not making anything out of it. If doctors shot at the moon every time it was full as a preventive of measles and got a shilling for it, they would bring statistics to prove it was a most efficient practice, and that the population would be decimated if it were stopped.”—Dr Allinson
“The greatest threat of childhood diseases lies in the dangerous and ineffectual efforts made to prevent them through mass immunization…..There is no convincing scientific evidence that mass inoculations can be credited with eliminating any childhood disease.” –Dr. Robert Mendelsohn, M.D.
“I think that no person would permit anybody to get close to them with an inoculation if they would really know how they are made, what they carry, what has been lied to them about them and what the real percent of danger is of contracting such a disease which is minimal.”—Dr. Eva Snead
“There are significant risks associated with every immunization and numerous contraindications that may make it dangerous for the shots to be given to your child….There is growing suspicion that immunization against relatively harmless childhood diseases may be responsible for the dramatic increase in autoimmune diseases since mass inoculations were introduced. These are fearful diseases such as cancer, leukemia, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Lou Gehrig’s disease, lupus erthematosus, and the Guillain-Barre syndrome.” –Dr. Mendelsohn, M.D.
“Probably 20% of American children-one youngster in five— suffers from ‘development disability’. This is a stupefying figure..We have inflicted it on ourselves.. ‘development disabilities’ are nearly always generated by encephalitis. And the primary cause of encephalitis in the USA and other industrialized countries is the childhood vaccination program. To be specific, a large proportion of the millions of US children and adults suffering from autism, seizures, mental retardation, hyperactivity, dyslexia, and other shoots or branches of the hydraheaded entity called ‘development disabilities’, owe their disorders to one or another of the vaccines against childhood diseases.” –Harris Coulter, PhD
“There is a great deal of evidence to prove that immunization of children does more harm than good.” - Dr. J. Anthony Morris (formerly Chief Vaccine Control Officer at the US Federal Drug Admin.)
“Official data shows that large scale vaccination has failed to obtain any significant improvement of the diseases against which they were supposed to provide protection” - Dr. Sabin, developer of Polio vaccine.
“All vaccination has the effect of directing the three values of the blood into or toward the zone characteristics of cancer and leukemia…Vaccines do predispose to cancer and leukemia.” -Professor L.Vincent - founder of Bioelectronics
“Provocation polio. That is the truth about those outbreaks of polio. And I offer a well considered personal opinion that polio is a man made disease.” -Viera Scheibner, Ph.D.
“May as well consult a butcher on the value of vegetarianism as a doctor on the worth of vaccination.”—Bernard Shaw
“For a pediatrician to attack what has become the ‘bread and butter’ of pediatric practice is equivalent to a priest denying the infallibility of the pope.” - Dr Robert Mendelsohn, M.D.
“The decline in infectious diseases in developed countries had nothing to do with vaccinations, but with the decline in poverty and hunger.” –Dr. Buchwald, M.D.
“I was working in one of the oldest lung illness treatment centers in Germany, and just by chance, I looked at the files of those people who had fallen ill during the first German epidemic of smallpox, in 1947…We had always been told that the smallpox vaccination would protect against smallpox. And now I could verify, thanks to the files and papers, that all of those who had fallen ill had been vaccinated. This was very upsetting for me.” - Dr. Buchwald, M.D.
“It was similar with the measles vaccination. They went through Africa, South America and elsewhere, and vaccinated sick and starving children…They thought they were wiping out measles, but most of those susceptible to measles died from some other disease that they developed as a result of being vaccinated. The vaccination reduced their immune levels and acted like an infection. Many got septicemia, gastroenteritis, etceteras, or made their nutritional status worse and they died from malnutrition. So there were very few susceptible infants left alive to get measles. It’s one way to get good statistics. Kill all those that are susceptible, which is what they literally did.” –Dr. Kalokerinos, M.D.
“Only after realizing that routine immunizations were dangerous did I achieve a substantial drop in infant death rates.” –Dr. Kalokerinos
Some doctors refuse to vaccinate their own children as well.(My MD in Seattle!) According to Dr. Jerome Murphy, former head of Pediatric-Neurology at Milwaukee Children’s Hospital, “There is just overwhelming data that there’s an association [between the pertussis vaccine and seizures]. I know it has influenced many pediatric neurologists not to have their own children immunized with pertussis.”
Vaccine Injury Compensation, Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Health and the Environment, 99th Congress, 2nd Session (July 25, 1986) p 214 “The vaccination lobby shamelessly takes all the children of this world as hostages to still their greed for money and power. They relentlessly abuse our compassion for the weaker and our concern about health to promote their giga-business. No matter what. No matter how many more vaccine victims will suffer death or side-effects. No matter how many financial resources this strategy devours at the expense of essential social investments like housing and employment. No matter what. Shocking! There is no excuse for this crime. Just as shocking is the observation that (health) policy is no longer under local, democratic control. Everything is set up and organized with scrutiny at the highest, international level by those who take profit from it: the pharmaceutical industry, the financial world, politicians.” –Kris Gaublomme, MD
‘When you do get to the little wrappers that come with the little bottles of vaccine and read the small print, the alarm bells start ringing.., vaccination does not guarantee immunization… you do run some risk with vaccination… I put it that natural immunity is much more likely to be protective of the child than the much failed record of artificial immunity coming from vaccination’. –Senator Brown of Tasmania (ex medical practitioner).
The USA Association of American Physicians and Surgeons said that children younger than 14 are three times more likely to be killed or seriously injured by Hepatitis ‘B’ vaccine than to catch the disease. They have called for an immediate moratorium on mandatory Hepatitis ‘B’ vaccine for school children pending further research about dangerous side effects.
The USA Public Health Service and the American Academy of Pediatrics are now asking vaccine manufacturers to eliminate the preservative of Thimerosal (a mercury derivative) from all vaccines. Thimerosal is presently being used in Hepatitis ‘B, Diphtheria Tetanus, Pertussis (DTPw), Influenza and Bacterial Meningitis (Hib) vaccines. It has been found that the cumulative effects of ingesting mercury can cause brain damage.
The Bovine Spongiform Encephalitis BSE (Mad Cow Disease) inquiry in the UK has shown that the 40 victims of BSE and the new variant Creutzteldt-Jakob disease may not have had anything to do with eating beef, but from injecting vaccines made from the brains of BSE-infected cattle.
Modern vaccinations, fear of germs and obsession with hygiene are depriving the immune system of the information input upon which it is dependent. This fails to maintain the correct cytokine balance and fine-tune T-cell regulation, and may lead to increased incidences of allergies and autoimmune diseases. If humans continue to deprive their immune systems of the input to which evolution has adapted it, it may be necessary to devise ways of replacing it artificially. –Rook GA, Stanford JL Dept of Bacteriology, UCL Medical School, London, UK.
“Dutch scientists are struggling to identify the exact cause of an epidemic of whooping cough that has swept throughout the country despite vaccination rates as high as 96%. Similar problems are also being reported from Norway and Denmark.” -British Medical Journal, 1998.
“(Whooping cough infections) are common in an immunized population.” -Journal of the American Medical Association, 1998.
“The incidence of asthma has been found to be five times more common in vaccinated children.” -The Lancet, 1994.
“89% of doctors rely on drug company salesmen for their information.” (My friend is a drug rep she says this is true)-The Australian Doctor 1989.
“In the USA the vaccination lobby has made the US Government shoulder the vaccine manufacturers liabilities. The Government established a National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program in 1986 and has paid out in excess of $1 billion to families for vaccine injuries, mainly from the whooping cough vaccine. The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting Scheme of the FDA admits 12,000 to 14,000 reports annually and agree that only 10 to 15% of adverse reactions are reported.”
Atypical measles has been known about for almost as long as the measles vaccine has been around and it is ONLY found in the vaccinated. It is typified by a milder than usual rash which is probably where the ugly rumor has originated that vaccinated people get milder cases of measles than the unvaccinated. Though the rash may be less, the symptoms can be much worse and the chances of lung involvement are higher than with wild measles (20% +) and liver involvement 3% +) The earliest medical journal study I have about this is “Altered Reactivity to Measles Virus” Atypical Measles in Children Previously Immunized with Inactivated Measles Virus Vaccines. Fulginiti, V.A. et al; JAMA 18/12/67, Vol. 202, No. 12. Viera Scheibner has said that the chances of dying from wild measles are 0.03% while the chances of dying from atypical measles are between 12-15%. It was thought at one time that it was only the early inactivated vaccine that could cause atypical measles, but it is no known that any measles vaccine can. It seems that the vaccine perverts the immune process which may explain the reason why those who are vaccinated can get measles over and over without developing any natural immunity and may not be able to pass immunity onto their unborn child through the placenta.
“No batch of vaccine can be proved safe before it is given to children.” — Surgeon General of the United States, Leonard Scheele, addressing an AMA convention in 1955
“The only safe vaccine is a vaccine that is never used” — Dr. James A. Shannon, National Institutes of Health
“In this article we begin to address the subject of vaccinosis, the general name for chronic disease caused by vaccines. For some readers the very idea that vaccines are anything but wonderful and life-saving may come as a surprise, and it’s not a very pleasant one. After all, the general population pictures vaccines as one of modern medicine’s best and brightest moments, saving literally millions from the scourge of diseases like poliomyelitis and smallpox.” –Dr. Richard Pitcairn D.V.M., Ph.D
“Pumping more vaccines into the body without understanding such basics as how they’ll affect immune system function over time borders on the criminal.” –Nicholas Regush, ABCNEWS.com
A study undertaken at the University of California, Los Angeles, under the sponsorship of the Food and Drug Administration, and which has been confirmed by other studies, links DPT (diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus) vaccination, and more specifically the pertussis component, to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). This study found that 53 of 145 SIDS victims whose families were interviewed had received a DPT vaccination within 4 weeks. The authors conclude that “the excess of deaths in the 24 hours and first week following immunization and the absence of deaths in the fourth week following immunizations were significant.” They call for more studies to substantiate their findings, despite the fact that this is already the third investigation, and all 3 have pointed in the same direction. (Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 1983. Possible temporal association between diphtheria - tetanus toxoid - pertussis vaccination and sudden infant death syndrome. Baraff, L.J., Ablon, W.J., Weiss, R.C.)
The HEW reported in 1970 that as much as 26 percent of children receiving rubella vaccination, in national testing programs, developed arthalgia or arthritis. Many had to seek medical attention and some were hospitalized to test for rheumatic fever and rheumatoid arthritis. (Science, US, March 26, 1977.)
A case-control study has shown that 41 percent of meningitis occurred in children vaccinated against the disease. The vaccine’s protective efficacy was minus 58 percent. This means that children are much more likely to get the disease if they are vaccinated. (JAMA, 1988, Osterholm et al., 260: 1423-1428.)
“The apparent paradox is that as measles immunization rates rise to high levels in a population, measles becomes a disease of immunized persons.” (Review article: 50 REFS. Dept. of Internal Medicine, Mayo Vaccine Research Group, Mayo Clinic and Foundation, Rochester, MN. Archives of Internal Medicine. 154(16):1815-20, 1994 Aug 22. )

“Our children face the possibility of death or serious long-term adverse effects from mandated vaccines that aren’t necessary or that have very limited benefits” –Jane M. Orient, MD, AAPS (Association of American Physicians and Surgeons) Executive Director.
“There is insufficient evidence to support routine vaccination of healthy persons of any age.” –Paul Frame, M.D., Journal of Family Practice
“All vaccination has the effect of directing the three values of the blood into or toward the zone characteristics of cancer and leukemia…Vaccines do predispose to cancer and leukemia.” –Professor L.Vincent - founder of Bioelectronics
Professor Wakefield (UK) has linked autism and crohns disease to the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine. What do you think? What evidence do you have to back up your opinions?
Why is the same dose of vaccines given to a two month old as for a 5 year old?
Are you aware that Japan changed the start time for vaccinating from 3 months to two years and straight away their SIDS rate plummeted?
Do you believe in herd immunity? If so, how is it that 98% of U.S.A. children are vaccinated yet they still have outbreaks of these diseases?
Most diseases were already 90% gone before any vaccines were introduced, If this is so, how can vaccines be applauded for diseases ceasing, especially when there were no vaccines for some diseases like bubonic plague and scarlet fever?
How can an unvaccinated child be more of a risk than a vaccinated child if neither have the disease? Surely it would be the other way around in the case of the live virus vaccines? These children are assured of having the virus in their bodies to spread.
How can the Tetanus vaccine induce immunity, when contracting the disease naturally does not give immunity?
