14.6 VACCINATION: THE WEAPON OF CHOICE  It seems illogical that self-proclaimed population control advocates would spend billions of dollars on vaccination programmes trying to save the lives of millions of people in the Third World. The grim reality is that they are covertly murdering and sterilizing these poor people under the guise of public health. Launched in 1999, The Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization is a partnership of the who's who in population control: The Rockefeller Foundation, the $24 billion Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the United Nations Foundation ( a $1 billion endowment by Ted Turner), The World Bank, The World Health Organization and Western governments.(53) The stated mission of GAVI and the Vaccine Fund, is to ensure that 'all the world's children have equal access to lifesaving vaccines'. Unfortunately, the more malnourished a child is the more likely it is to suffer a severe reaction to immune-suppressing vaccinations, especially when they are given in combination. Even the American Vaccination Adverse Event Reporting Systems (VAERS) set up in 1990, gives some indication of the carnage caused by vaccines. 90% of all adverse reactions go un-reported to VAERS and chronic conditions which emerge months or years later, such as autism, autoimmune diseases, allergies, cancer, and neurodevelopment disorders, are not officially recognized as consequences of vaccinations anyway.(54) The report by United Press International should be read bearing this in mind:
As of the end of last year, the system contained 244,424 total reports of possible reactions to vaccines, including 99,145 emergency room visits, 5,149 life-threatening reactions, 27,925 hospitalizations, 5,775 disabilities, and 5,309 deaths, according to data compiled by Dr. Mark Geier, a vaccine researcher in Silver Spring, Md. The data represents roughly 1 billion doses of vaccines, according to Geier. (55)
An investigative report by Roman Bystrianyk for www.HealthSentinel.com, shows that there is little epidemiological evidence for the contribution of vaccines to the widescale reduction in death rates from infectious diseases.(56) The Vital Statistics of the United States, published by the Bureau of the Census and the U.S. Dept. of Health, contain death rates from infectious diseases. From 1900 to 1963, when the measles vaccine was introduced, death rates from measles had declined from 13.3 per 100,000 to 0.2 per 100,000 - a 98% decrease. From 1900 to 1949, death rates from whooping cough declined from 12.2 per 100,000 to 0.5 per 100,000 - a 96% decrease. From 1900 to 1949, death rates from diphtheria declined from 40.3 per 100,000 to 0.4 per 100,000 - a 99% decrease.
fig. 1: Death rates from infectious diseases in the U.S.
Mortality data in England and Wales provided by the Office of National Statistics in 1997 shows an identical picture. From 1850 to 1968, when the measles vaccine was introduced, death rates from measles had declined from a range of 52.11 to 26.6 per 100,000 to 0.11 per 100,000 - a range of 99.6% to 99.8% decrease. From 1860 to 1955, death rates from whooping cough declined from a range of 43.73 to 60.86 per 100,000 to 0.2 per 100,000 - a 99.5% to 99.7% decrease. Also note that scarlet fever and typhoid were eliminated in both countries without any vaccination programme. Public health experts have long recognized these facts. Thomas McKeown was Professor of Social Medicine in the University of Birmingham Medical School between 1950 and 1978. He is still regarded as a major social philosopher of medicine, and known for his important works on epidemiology and the practice and purpose of medicine. His conclusion was that infectious diseases were declining well before widespread vaccination:
The distinguished epidemiologist Thomas McKeown (1912-1988) maintained that reductions in deaths associated with infectious diseases (air-, water-, and food-borne diseases) cannot have been brought about by medical advances, since such diseases were declining long before effective means were available to combat them.
A paper published in the premier medical journal, The Lancet, in January1977 by the Department of Community Medicine, also indicated that vaccinations were not responsible for the decline in mortality:
Vaccination, beginning on small scale in some places around 1948 and on a national scale in 1957, did not affect the rate of decline if it be assumed that one attack usually confers immunity, as in most major communicable diseases of childhood. … The steady decline of whooping cough between 1930 and 1957 is predictive of a linear exponential decay characteristic of a general and progressive lessening in the volume and spread of infection among the susceptible population. With this pattern well established before 1957, there is no evidence that vaccination played a major role in the decline in incidence and mortality in the trend of events
An even a more recent editorial statement from the Journal of Pediatrics in December 1999 declared that proper sanitation was largely responsible for the early large declines in infectious diseases:
...the largest historical decrease in morbidity and mortality caused by infectious disease was experienced not with the modern antibiotic and vaccine era, but after the introduction of clean water and effective sewer systems.
Again, in the August 2001 edition of the American Journal of Infection Control, epidemiologists concluded that,
except for the smallpox vaccination, which was introduced in 1798 and made compulsory in England in 1853, the overall contribution of medical innovations to the health revolution of the 1800s is difficult to validate. Diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis vaccine arrived on the scene only after disease mortality rates already had been reduced significantly; measles, rubella, and polio vaccines did not become available until the middle of the 20th century
IMMUNE SUPPRESSION
Because they do not trigger a proper immune response, vaccinations give live viruses and other live vaccine contaminants a headstart in the body. Normally microorganisms have to pass through the mucous membranes in the mouth and gastro-intestinal tract which are lined with Immunoglobulin A. Interaction with IgA triggers a cellular immune response which precedes the antibody/humoral response. Injected microorganisms bypass the mucousal /cellular immune system and directly trigger the antibody-producing plasma cells in the bone marrow. This is why vaccine manufactures add immune system stimulating 'adjuvants' such as aluminium, lipopolysacchride and squalene. Live microorganisms also take advantage of significant immune suppression caused by the vaccination itself. Research found that 20% of measles vaccines recipients have chronic measles infections in their brains later in life indicating that live virus vaccines create greater risk of developing the disease.(57) In the New England Journal of Medicine of July 1994, a study found that over 80% of children under 5 years of age who had contracted whooping cough had been fully vaccinated against it. (58) Dr. Archie Kalokerinos is a Life Fellow of the Royal Society for Health, a Fellow of the International Academy of Preventive Medicine, Fellow of the Australasian College of Biomedical Scientists, Fellow of the Hong Kong Medical Technology Association, and a Member of the New York Academy of Sciences. In 1978 he was awarded the A.M.M.(Australian Medal of Merit) for 'outstanding scientific research'. On the subject of vaccines he comments:
My final conclusion after forty years or more in this business [medicine] is that the unofficial policy of the World Health Organization and the unoffical 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."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 septicaemia, gastro-enteritis, etc, 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."(59)
American children receive up to forty vaccinations before the age of two. Dr. H.H. Fudenberg, world-renowned immunologist with hundreds of publications to his credit, made the following comments:
One vaccine decreases cell-mediated immunity by 50%, two vaccines by 70%…all triple vaccines (MMR, DTaP) markedly impair cell-mediated immunity, which predisposes to recurrent viral infections.(60)
Like HIV, the measles virus is particularly immune suppressing hence the danger of the live virus measles vaccine. In 2001, GAVI launched an initiative to vaccinate all 200 million children in sub-Saharan Africa against measles, despite the fact that HIV infection is rampant there.(61) VACCINE CONTAMINANTS
As well as the dangerous assault on fragile immune systems by the vaccine's active ingredients, there are live contaminants in vaccines. Microorganism contamination, is a relatively common finding in many commercial vaccines.. One study in the journal Vaccine in 1986, found that ~6% of commercial vaccines tested were contaminated with a tiny bacteria called mycoplasma. Most U.S.military personnel deployed to the Gulf in 1990 received up to 30 vaccinations in a two to three day period, some probably experimental and administered without proper informed consent. Recent studies by the Institute of Molecular Medicine found that ~40% of veterans with Gulf War Illness were infected with mycoplasma fermentans.(62)100% of Gulf War Illness patients who developed the motor neuron disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, tested positive for systemic mycoplasma infection.(63) The polio vaccine administered to thirty million Americans during the late fifties and early sixties was contaminated with the monkey virus SV40. This is believed to be responsible for an epidemic of cancers.(64) When SV40 was discovered in rhesus monkey kidney cells during the early 1960s, the manufacturers switched rapidly to cells from African green monkeys. However Dr John Martin, an FDA scientist discovered in 1972 that these cells were also contaminated, this time with a cytomegalovirus. To date his requests to have the vaccine properly tested have gone unanswered by the FDA because the manufacturers can hide behind 'proprietary interests'. Dr Martin now works as an independent researcher studying the role of this 'stealth' virus in whole range of chronic debilitating illnesses. (65)
VACCINES FOR STERILIZATION
The World Health Organization has a twenty year history of developing contraceptive vaccines. These work by creating immunity to the body's own fertility hormone, human chorionic gonadotrophin (HcG).(66) A BBC documentary entitled Horizon: The Human Laboratory aired 5 November 1995, revealed that the W.H.O. started using these vaccines to sterilize women in the mid 1990s. They got caught giving it to women without informed consent in the Philippines, by putting in the tetanus shots.(67)(68) After the recipients of the vaccine started having miscarriages a study conducted by the Philippine Medical Association on behalf of the Philippine Department of Health revealed that almost 20 percent of the tetanus vaccine sampled positive for HcG. A UNICEF campaign to vaccinate Nigeria's youth against polio may have been a front for sterilizing the nation, according to Dr. Haruna Kaita, a pharmaceutical scientist. In March 2004 he reported that, using WHO-recommended technologies like Gas Chromatography (GC) and Radio-Immuno assay, he found evidence of serious contamination. "Some of the things we discovered in the vaccines are harmful, toxic; some have direct effects on the human reproductive system," he said. Asked why he thought manufacturers would do this, he replied:
These manufacturers or promoters of these harmful things have a secret agenda which only further research can reveal. Secondly they have always taken us in the third world for granted, thinking we don't have the capacity, knowledge and equipment to conduct tests that would reveal such contaminants. And very unfortunately they also have people to defend their atrocities within our midst, and worst still some of these are supposed to be our own professionals who we rely on to protect our interests.

MERCURY
Relevant articles >> 1, 2 |
First manufactured in the 1930s, thimerosal is a mercury compound containing 49.6% ethyl mercury by weight. Since then it has been used in some multi-dose vaccines as a preservative. Autism was relatively uncommon before 1990, averaging around 1 in 10,000 American children. Today it averages 1 in 150. (70) 7 out of 10 autistic children have an I.Q below 70 points, low enough to create 'learing difficulties'. Congressman Dan Burton predicts that if current trends continue, there could be 4 million autistic Americans in the next decade. (71) Researchers believe that when the number of vaccines given to children was increased in 1990, the public health agencies failed to take into account the cumulative mercury exposure. A United Press International investigation into the vaccine controversy reported that, depending on what vaccines a child got during that period, a visit to the doctor during the 1990s may have exposed some children to 125 times the limit on mercury set by the Environmental Protection Agency. Since the mid-1980s the CDC has doubled the number of vaccines children get, up to nearly 40 doses before age 2. (72) On 7 July 1999, The American Academy of Pediatrics and the U.S. Public Health Service issued a joint statement calling for the removal of thimerosal from vaccines following a risk assessment by the FDA. Although manufacturers did take steps to remove it from many vaccines, there is no requirement for them to do so because the CDC will not take action. Dr. Mark Geier, an expert witness on vaccine cases, states that major manufacturers are still using thimerosal and that children were being injected with more mercury than ever in 2003.(73) Fluzone by Aventis Pasteur, is provided in multi-dose vials that still contain 25mcg of thimerosal, 25 times the safe level of mercury suggested by the FDA.(74) For this reason, Congressman Dan Burton and Dave Weldon have introduced Bills to ban thimerosal use in vaccines. The Insitute of Medicine, which advises the CDC on this issue, refuses to acknowledge the dangers of thimerosal. This is in spite of Dr Mark Gaier's study published in the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons in April 2003(75) which concluded that there is a strong link between thimerosal exposure and neurodevelopment disorders such as autism, speech impediments, and attention deficit disorder. Gaier noted that one in eight American children requires special education due to brain impairment and that number is expected to rise to one in five. In February 2000, Dr Thomas Verstraeten of the National Immunization Program of the CDC produced an analysis of the CDC's Vaccine Safety Datalink, a patient record database that includes information on children vaccinated who developed neurological disorders. These findings were never made public but they were discussed at a secret CDC conference held on 7-8th June , 2000 at the Simpsonwood Retreat Center, Norcross, Georgia. This was top level assembly of 51 scientists and physicians, of which five represented vaccine manufacturers (Glaxosmithkline, Merck, Wyeth, North American Vaccine and Aventis Pasteur). Minutes of this conference were obtained by Congressman David Weldon through a freedom of information request.(76) Verstraeten's findings showed a risk of autism 2.48 times greater for infants who received the highest amounts of mercury in vaccines. The delegates agreed that these findings should be kept secret and went on to discuss how they could manipulate the data to conceal the association. In November 2003, Verstraeten et al. published a study in Pediatrics which denied the association. The Journal did not disclose the fact that since the meeting in 2000, Verstraten had been working for Glaxosmithkline.. In December 2003, Congressman Weldon got Dr. Mark Gaier access to the same Datalink database and he was able to conclude that the earlier findings were correct. (77)
VACCINE ADJUVANTS
Dr Russell Blayock is a neurosurgeon and expert on excitotoxins. He warns that mercury is not the only vaccine additive which can cause brain damage including autism.(78)(79) Substances called adjuvants are added to vaccines in order to stimulate an immune response. These include squalene, aluminium, and lipopolysacchride. The problem with current heavy vaccination schedules is that these substances remain in the tissues, continually stimulating the immune system. This is particularly bad for the brain because its immune system cells called microglia, once activated, begin to move about the nervous system, secreting numerous immune chemicals (called cytokines and chemokines) and pouring out an enormous amount of free radicals in an effort to kill invading organisms. The problem is, there are no invading organisms. It has been tricked by the vaccine into believing there are. Unlike the body's immune system, the microglia also secrete two other chemicals that are very destructive of brain cells and their connecting processes. These chemicals, glutamate and quinolinic acid, are called excitotoxins. They also dramatically increase free radical generation in the brain. Studies of patients have shown that levels of these two excitotoxins can rise to very dangerous levels in the brain following viral and bacterial infections of the brain. High quinolinic acid levels in the brain are thought to be the cause of the dementia seen with HIV infection. A recent study by the world-renowned immunologist Dr. H. Hugh Fudenberg, found that adults vaccinated yearly for five years in a row with the flu vaccine had a 10-fold increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. He attributes this to the mercury and aluminum in the vaccine. Interestingly, both of these metals have been shown to activate microglia and increase excitotoxicity in the brain.
VACCINES AND SUDDEN INFANT DEATH AND SHAKEN BABY SYNDROMES
In the early 1970s the medical establishment came up with a diagnosis of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) to hide the fact that vaccines might be killing thousands of babies all over the world every year. After their baby fell victim in 1997, Alan and Francine Yurko launched The Yurko Project, to expose the real cause of their son's death. (80) They successfully rallied an army of scientists and doctors from around the world and overturned Alan Yurko's wrongful conviction for shaking his son to death in August 2004, after he had spent seven years in prison. A series of high profile cases in the U.K. have thrown the whole diagnoses of shaken baby syndrome and other spurious allegations of infanticide into disrepute.(81)(82)(83) Most of the parents who contact the Yurko Project for help state that their child's problems began within days of vaccination. This reflects the official data on SIDS and SBS. There are approximately 2500 SIDS cases and 1300 SBS cases per year in the U.S.. The Center for Disease control acknowledges that the peak age for SIDS - 2 to 4 months- coincides with the first round of vaccinations. (84)The bacterial vaccines which contain endotoxin, DTaP and Hib, are particularly suspect. In its latest review, The Institute of Medicine has been unable to rule out the connection between DtaP and SIDS.(85) The mean average age for SBS cases is 2.2 months.(86)
AUTOIMMUNE AND INFLAMMATORY DISEASES
The connection between vaccination and inflammatory disease is strong. Inflammatory diseases plaguing Western nations include: Type one diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, hay fever and other allergies, multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barre, amyotrophic-lateral- sclerosis/motor neuron disease, Stevens-Johnson's syndrome, Lupus, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, Crohn's colitis and irritable bowel syndrome. In the U.S., asthma in children has doubled in the last twenty years coinciding with the doubling of childhood vaccines. (87) In New Zealand there was a 60% increase in juvenile diabetes following a massive hepatitis B vaccination programme for newborns. In Finland the incidence of juvenile diabetes increased 147% in children under five after the introduction of three new vaccines for children in the late 1970s. Then in the late 1980s addition of a live MMR vaccine and an experimental vaccine (Hib) resulted in another 62% increase in the incidence of juvenile diabetes in children 3 months or older who received the new multiple vaccines. Interestingly, a former NIH investigator, Dr. J. B. Classen, has proposed that the increase in type 1 juvenile diabetes associated with multiple childhood vaccines may be avoidable by changing the regimen by which multiple vaccines are given in childhood.(88) Merck & Co.'s documentation on the adverse reactions to its Hepatitis B vaccine is published in the Physician's Desk Reference. Some of the inflammatory and autoimmune diseases listed include Guillain-Barre, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, lupus and Stevens-Johnson's syndrome.(89) In 1998, France became the first country to terminate a hepB vaccine program. The French Ministry of Health acted when complaints of multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and other illnesses in patients who received the hepB vaccine were reported. Up to 900 cases of MS may have been linked to the vaccine. (90) Immunization with the recombinant hepatitis B vaccine trebles the risk of developing multiple sclerosis according to new U.S. research based on UK statistics. Published in Neurology, a study by the Harvard School of Public Health estimated that HBV immunization was associated with a 3-fold increase in incidence of MS within 3 years. (91) The 2002 the 'Madsen study' of 537,304 children in Denmark concluded that there was no link between the MMR vaccine and autism. This study is cited by public health agencies around the world as definitive proof that MMR is safe. However in Autumn 2004, an article was published which contradicted these findings.The Madsen study monitored the progress of vaccinated children in Denmark for only four years. Dr Fouad Yazbak and Dr G S Goldman looked at the same data but over a longer period of time and found that prevalence of autism among children aged from 5 to 9 stood at 8.38 cases per 100,000 in the pre-vaccine years 1980 to 1986, and then rose to 71.43 cases by the year 2000. (92)(93) SmithKline Beecham produced a vaccine for Lyme disease called Lymerix in 1996. By October 2000 it had been given to 1.4 million people according to the Centers for Disease Control. However, the company pulled the vaccine off the market in February 2002 after large numbers of recipients developed chronic arthritic symptoms.(94) The science of immunology is extremely complex but vaccination critics believe that the fundamental problem with vaccines is the injection of foreign substances directly into the body. Heavy childhood vaccination schedules may permanently skew the immune system towards a humoral response. Immune systems biased towards humoral immunity are associated with autoimmune diseases and allergies. Autoimmune diseases can also be caused by the virus itself as well as by modification to the cellular/humoral balance of the immune system. Viruses and other live vaccine contaminants such as mycoplasmas frequently have surface proteins which are similar to those in the human body, particularly in the brain and nervous system.(95) It is well established in the scientific literature that genes can be transferred between microorganisms and human cells. Any slight genetic changes to the surface proteins of human cells by genetic transfer from microorganisms or vice-versa can lead to an autoimmune response. (96) (97)
INFLAMMATORY DISEASE AND CANCER
Many adverse reactions to vaccines can prove fatal in the long term. Dr. Russell Blayock points out the relationship between inflammatory disease and cancer. Medical research found that 76% of cancer patients had developed an inflammatory disease 7-13 years before.(98) These findings were the cover story of Time Magazine on 23 February 2004. Inflammation produces large amounts of free-radicals that damage DNA. (99)
THE FUTURE OF VACCINATION
In July 2004, The Independent newspaper reported that vaccines which block sensations of euphoria associated with narcotics and smoking are under development. The British Government has backed the research in the hope that soon, doctors will be able to vaccinate children to prevent them experiencing the pleasure associated with taking drugs. Given that vaccines are already strongly suspected of reducing childrens' intelligence, any attempt to interfere with their emotional responses has to be viewed with concern. Will the new vaccines create a generation of emotionally impotent automatons? Orwell predicted that The Party would abolish the orgasm, after all. (100)
