Vaccine Safety
The premise of vaccines is a good one: modify an infective agent
(bacteria, virus) in the laboratory so it is no longer virulent
(disease-producing) without destroying its antigenic
characteristics (immune-stimulating). When administered, a
vaccine will then theoretically not produce the disease but will
create immunity to it.
The approach is similar to that used in homeopathy whereby the
toxin responsible for the disease condition is diluted and
administered to stimulate the body to fight the disease. Like
fighting like.
But, as always, there are slips between the theory and practice
of vaccines. For one thing, because large, not homeopathically
small, doses of modified infective agents are in vaccines, the
immune system can be taxed. Give several different vaccines and
repeat them periodically and the immune system can be exhausted.
The immune system has finite, not infinite capacity. The net
result can be increased vulnerability to cancer, autoimmunities
and other infective agents. There is also the problem of route
of administration. The normal point of entry for disease agents
is across oral, digestive or respiratory mucous membranes. The
exposure is usually only to a small number of organisms, maybe
even one. In contrast, vaccines are commonly given by injection,
bypassing several layers of important immune-stimulating
mechanisms with the mucous membrane barriers and can contain
tens of thousands of modified disease agents.
Some vaccines are modified, but are still living. Who is to say
what such living creatures do over time when injected into the
body in enormous quantities? Viruses are very clever and capable
of remarkable change and adaptation. I'm not sure I like the
idea of these guys floating around in my body trying to decide
how best to attack me. When we take such vaccines, we are
volunteering for an experiment.
I will not go into a litany here of all the proven dangers of
vaccines or enumeration of tragic results. This has been done
elsewhere.
But here are a couple of new problems. Some vaccines contain
high levels of thimerosal mercury. Mercury is a potent toxin and
its level in some vaccines exceeds Federal Safety Guidelines.
Problems linked to thimerosal include autism and speech
disorders, as well as heart disease. J Am Physicians Surgeons,
2003; 8(1):6-11 http://www.jpands.org/vol8no1/geier.pdf
A new vaccine is being developed for Alzheimer's based upon the
theory that increased brain plaque is the cause of the disease.
However, plaque is not the likely cause, but a symptom (similar
to high cholesterol in atherosclerosis), and initial trials of
the test vaccine caused 6% of the participants to suffer from
severe brain swelling.
In the recent effort to prepare the population for bioterrorism,
almost 26,000 people were vaccinated with small pox. So far,
seven cases of cardiac problems and ten cases of
myopericarditis
have been associated with the vaccine. Although this temporal
association is being downplayed (like smoking being associated
with respiratory disease), it is reason for caution.
Additionally, the smallpox vaccine is known to cause
hypercoagulability, a condition particularly threatening to
those with vessel narrowing atherosclerosis. Some researchers
believe that the pox vaccine virus (along with a host of other
pathogens) has the capability of adhering to the endothelium
(lining) of blood vessels. These nodules stimulate an
inflammatory response resulting in platelet adhesion, thrombin
release and fibrin formation. When this occurs, the vessel is
narrowed depriving distal (downstream) tissue from oxygen and
creating the ideal anaerobic (oxygen devoid) environment for
proliferation of pathogens (infection), neoplasia (cancer) and
sclerotic plaque (heart attack, stroke).

Vaccine mania is caused by misinformation, fear and profit
motives. If you believe we have been saved thus far by vaccines
for polio, diphtheria and the like, please think again. In
almost every case, the vaccine was introduced only after the
disease had already naturally declined in the population. Giving
credit to the vaccine is like saying the crowing rooster is
responsible for the sunrise.
If you or your children are under pressure to take a vaccine,
get fully informed. The safest vaccine would be one that is
killed (trusting that has really happened) and is given by the
same route (oral or aerosol) that the street form of the disease
agent would use to attack.
Microbes are ubiquitous. They are in constant contact with us.
We cannot escape them by hiding in our homes or wearing
facemasks, nor will we eradicate them with disinfectants. In
spite of propaganda to the contrary (vaccines are really big
money), vaccines will never be the savior of humankind. Their
potential risks may even outweigh their benefits when all is
said and done. The only cases of polio today, for example, are
those caused by the vaccine.
Disease has not wiped out all life on the planet because within
any given population there is natural resistance. That
resistance is optimized in healthy bodies living a healthy
lifestyle and that have proper natural nourishment. Health will
never be something somebody else gives to us with a pill or
injection; it is something we do to ourselves.
