Background of Vaccines

Where Did Vaccines Come From?

Little thought is given by the general population on how vaccines came to be. Vaccines
were surrounded in controversy from the moment of their conception.

Edward Jenner is credited as being the “Father of Immunology.” He noticed that
milkmaids often contracted an illness known as cowpox from the cows they milked.
Many times they were noticed for having much milder cases of smallpox or being able
to resist the disease altogether. Jenner hypothesized that if people were exposed to
the less severe cowpox, they could potentially become immune to smallpox as well.
The mainstream story states that Jenner succeeded in proving his theory, the
smallpox vaccine was born, and everyone lived happily ever after. This is laughable,
however. History did not go this way. Jenner tried one grotesque experiment after
another. He did not succeed in proving his theory. The damage was done, however,
and other people took his ideas and ran with them. People of the time did not like the
early smallpox vaccines. They resisted and were forced or coerced much like we are
today. There was an excuse each time the early smallpox vaccine failed. Either it was
not administered properly or people needed a booster. There was always an excuse.
Jenner himself admitted his vaccine concoctions produced morbid disease and
death. Whenever a vaccinated individual contracted smallpox, the solution was to
vaccinate them again. Whenever the vaccine failed, the answer was always more
vaccination. When vaccinated people died from smallpox, it was purposely covered up.
Death certificates would state the person died of natural causes. There is a more
detailed recounting of this information in the book Vaccine Safety Manual by Neil Z
Miller.

Vaccines Responsible For Disease Decline?

One of the biggest kept secrets and most outrageous lies regarding vaccines is that
they are responsible for the decline of diseases. This is absolutely not the case, and
actually, the contrary is true. Our medical establishment points to smallpox as a case
in point. The misconception is that smallpox is now eradicated, therefore the smallpox
vaccine must have been the sole contributor to the decline of the disease. Futhermore,
it is assumed that because infectious diseases declined, all vaccines must be 100%
safe and effective. Can you see what faulty logic this is? The truth is that infectious
diseases were declining before vaccines were introduced. This takes some deep
digging, but the evidence is clear. The best resource I have been able to find that
clearly outlines this relationship is the book by Neil Z Miller; Vaccines Are They Really
Safe and Effective. This book is excellent. It is an undeniable fact that disease spreads
more rapidly in crowded, unsanitary conditions. When we began increasing sanitary
conditions in our country and moving into suburban settings, diseases started to
decline. That is to say all diseases, not simply the ones in which a vaccine was
available. The Plague and Scarlett Fever also declined at the same time, though no
vaccine was available for those diseases. Diseases have natural cycles of outbreaks.
It has also been well documented that certain vaccines, such as polio, actually
contribute to outbreaks of the actual disease it is credited with preventing.

Backbone of Modern Medicine

Modern medicine was founded on the Germ Theory of Disease. What this means is
an organism must produce the same set of symptoms in every circumstance the
organism is present, and the organism must be present every time a set of symptoms
is experienced. This is obviously not possible, and evidenced in two people being
exposed to the same microorganism with one person getting sick and the other not.
Illness depends upon the state of the body and its ability to fight disease and not
necessarily the organism present. Bacteria are present within us every moment of our
lives. It’s when the body is weakened that we get sick. This is called opportunistic
infection.

The Germ Theory is seriously flawed and has begun to receive quite a lot of
questioning. It has been well proven, but hidden by the medical community, that germs
or bacteria can actually change form under different conditions. In essence, when
germs are given a different set of conditions, they can change to a new form. This is
called pleomorphic. For the Germ Theory and our entire Western medical framework
to function correctly, germs must be monomorphic (meaning unable to change form).
This way a physician can run a test, determine there is a certain germ present, then
prescribe a toxic medication to “take care of the problem.” Health must come from
within the body, however. The internal state of the body is the utmost importance in
determining disease. For further reading on these topics three great books to read are
1)What If Medicine Disappeared by Gerald E Markle and Frances B McCrea, 2) Good-
Bye Germ Theory by Dr. William P Trebing, and 3) Rethinking Pasteur’s Germ Theory:
How to Maintain Your Optimal Health by Nancy Appleton. Louis Pasteur, who was is
credited with the Germ Theory, has been recorded as saying on his deathbed, “The
organism is nothing, the terrain is everything.” What he means by that is it depends
more on the condition of the body than what microbe is present.

Because of the entire western medical establishment being completely dependent
upon this theory, getting widespread recognition of the problems with this theory is
more than just a little difficult. Vaccines are at the center of this. Vaccines are the bread
and butter of the medical establishment. Western medicine uses them as its
framework; its conclusive evidence that this system of medicine works. This is
precisely why it is near impossible to break free of the bonds of brainwashing we
receive in regards to vaccines. Pro-vaccine information is everywhere. We are
bombarded, brainwashed, coerced, and manipulated into believing in the system.
This is why it is hard to find truthful information regarding vaccines. This is why issues
surrounding vaccines are minimized.

Conflict of Interest

Our present medical establishment has vast amounts of money and is subsequently
very powerful. Its influence is extremely far reaching. This is evidenced by
pharmaceuticals being allowed to be directly advertised to consumers on TV. Why are
they advertising prescription medications to us? Wherever there is money to be made,
there are conflicts of interest. Vaccines are expensive, and they make drug companies,
the medical establishment, pediatricians, and even our government plenty of money.
This is why it is impossible to obtain unbiased information from these sources. It is
imperative to go to alternative sources for information that will never appear in
mainstream publications or media outlets. You must consider the source when you
are examining any piece of information. Do not trust sources with a conflict of interest
with your child’s health!

On this interesting topic, it seems appropriate to mention an excellent example of
conflict of interest. The first Rotavirus vaccine had to be taken of the market. It was
found to cause a deadly bowel complication called intussusception. This is where a
part of the bowel telescopes into another section causing an obstruction. It is very
serious and can cause death if not corrected. And yes, the first vaccine did cause
death from this. It was later found that the man (Paul Offit) that was the most influential
and prominent figure on getting the vaccine approved also held the patent on the
vaccine! He stood to make a ton of money if the vaccine was approved. He is also a
paid spokesperson for pharmaceutical companies. While this drastic conflict of
interest played out, babies died. Where is the accountability?

Why So Many Vaccines?

Now knowing some of the history behind vaccines, we must ask the reasoning for so
many new vaccines coming to the market. Vaccines seem to be the medical
establishment’s answer for everything. Vaccines being manufactured range from
cancer to quitting smoking to AIDS. Vaccines are not only marketed as childhood
vaccines anymore. Adults are now being targeted as well. Many of the illnesses
vaccines are now being made to prevent are not life threatening (though some will
argue they never were). Why is it that vaccines such as Hepatitis B are given to
newborns before they leave the hospital, when most newborns have absolutely no
need for a Hep. B vaccine and are not in a high risk group, not to mention the
underdeveloped immune system of a newborn? Mothers who just had a baby are now
targeted for a booster of the Tdap vaccine before they leave the hospital. We have to
start asking the hard questions. Why so many vaccines in light of the ever growing
controversy? Why target low risk populations? Why ignore important evidence? Why
use scare tactics and blatant lies to get people to vaccinate? Why attempt to take away
a person’s right to choose? I believe these answers are all in the name of profits. If
money were not involved, then it would be much less interesting. Are we to believe that
public health officials, the medical establishment, and our government make these
recommendations because they truly care from the bottom of their hearts about us,
about our health?
