In response to Marina Watt’s Article Time to Vaccinate Restaurant Workers Against Hepatitis A

There has been a lot of discussion about why celebrities should not be taken seriously when they say they distrust/fear vaccines because they are not scientists or physicians. Well, I am a scientist and a physician and therefore, by this logic, should be taken seriously when I say that I am an Anti Vaxxer and proud of it.
In fact, once you understand what is science and what is pseudoscience in the magical mystery tour which is vaccine propaganda, you will become a proud Anti Vaxxer right along with me.
Let’s start with the fact that in science, as opposed to, say, politics or religion, the answer must make sense. And injecting known toxins like mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde and foreign protein (including stealth viruses like the SV40 virus which causes leukemia and which the CDC has publicly acknowledged they knew was contaminating the polio vaccines that 98 million American’s received) and other dangerous compounds into humans simply does not make sense.
If you trust the government to regulate industries like the pharmaceutical and vaccine industry, then you must be comfortable with the following facts:
1. Regulators move from industry to the FDA and CDC, etc., on a revolving door basis and back again. They make lots ad lots of money in their industry positions and the take government positions at a lot less money where they show their loyalty to their corporate buds and are rewarded with even higher paying jobs
2. There is no such thing as a conflict of interest in their world. Someone like Dr. Paul Offit (rhymes with profit) can hold the patent for a vaccine and then sit on the panel that approves it, garnering himself at least $25 million (a very conservative estimate) the next year alone and bringing the vaccinated children serious pneumonia and meningitis complications.
3. Vaccination is so risky that no insurer in the world will provide insurance coverage. To deal with this problem, the FDA and the US Congress have exempted the vaccine manufacturers from ANY financial liability for any damage their products cause, regardless of its severity or how clear a vaccine adverse event it is.Instead, every antigen is taxed – in a tax paid by the recipient or parent – to fund the Special Masters Vaccine Court which has already paid out more than $2 Billion to compensate victims of vaccine injury.
4. Every infectious disease for which a vaccine has been introduced was in decline BEFORE the introduction of the vaccine because of the generalized availability of clean water, clean and more nutritious food, better general hygiene and living conditions. Most infectious diseases showed a meaningful increase in incidence AFTER the vaccine was introduced.
5. Every vaccine in the US must, under US law, be tested both for safety and efficacy. No vaccine has ever been evaluated for either. If studies are done, the placebo is invariably a toxic substance (often mercury itself or another known high-toxicity vaccine like the rabies vaccine). In the ONLY methodologically meaningful placebo controlled double blind study EVER conducted on a vaccine (a current flu vaccine), the level of protection did not reach statistical significance (meaning it was accounted for by chance) but those who received the vaccine had nearly 5 times the incidence of serious pulmonary infections (pneumonia).
6. There is no possibility of a genetic trend asserting itself in less than 45 years. When I graduated from medical school in 1970, autism occurred 1 time in 10,000 children, world wide. The latest figures are horrifying: 1 Somalian child in 36 in Minneapolis is autistic while CDC tells us that 1 child in 68 in the general population is autistic and, no, the criteria are pretty much the same. Since vaccines are what have changed, not genes, the CDC muddied the water on March 28th of this year by saying “US data shows autism rates up 30%, but condition not necessarily ‘more common'”. Still trusting that ol’ gubb’ment o’ yours?
7. Vaccines do not prevent disease. To “prove” that vaccines generate antibodies in the people who receive them (which is inaccurately believed to be the same as the development of immunity) Merck fraudulently added canine antibodies to “beef up” the antibody count to blood supposedly taken from humans who had received the mumps vaccine. Aluminum and squalene, both highly dangerous substances when in your bloodstream, are added to vaccines to increase the number of antibodies produced although they add nothing to immunity and vaccine antibody count does not equate to enhanced immunity.
In fact, immunity is damaged, decreased and diminished by the injection of these immune irritants (“adjuvants”) resulting in high increases of chronic degenerative disorders, just as we see wherever vaccine rates rise. The statistics are abundantly clear.
As a scientist, I could go on and on and on. It would be wonderful if we could dismiss the reality of vast and deadly cover up collisions between indemnified manufacturers and industry regulators. Tragically, we have endless documentation on this collusion from Simpsonwood, FOIA documents and the real data behind the cooked books of “scientific” studies showing that vaccines do not work, do cause damage and are, in essence, probably the largest scam in the history of science or pseudoscience.
So, there you go: I am not a celebrity. I am a doctor and scientist and I am a proud and enthusiastic Anti-Vaxxer!

In response to Dr. Caplan’s Article Your Kid Has No Right to Make My Kid Sick!

You are absolutely right, Dr. Caplan. If your kid gets vaccinated and is shedding infectious viruses which make my kid sick, your kid’s vaccination has endangered my kid and neither of you has a right to do that (nor do you or your wife, for that matter, given that people shed infectious organisms for 21 days or longer after nasal vaccination and other vaccinations!).
Further, if your kid is unlucky enough to be vaccinated (and I am sure he/she would be, given your public positions on the topic) and develops the increasingly common phenomenon of vaccine failure (getting the disease against which your kid has been vaccinated), your kid’s infection threatens my kid’s health during the incubation period before symptoms emerge, given that these infectious diseases are often more virulent than those which occur from native strains in un-vaccinated people.
Let’s face it, Dr. Kaplan: herd immunity does not exist. If your kid’s vaccine is effective, your kid won’t get the disease(s) against which he/she has been protected by the vaccine. If my kid is unvaccinated, and you can be sure that he/she will be, complete with legal exemptions, the only dangers from vaccines are 1) contagion originating among the vaccinated and 2) the legal bullying which your continuing harangues support and are used to justify.
There are two possibilities that I can see here:
1. You really are so genuinely scientifically uninformed that you believe what you are saying. After all, you are a bio ethicist, not a scientist. You offer up opinions but are not trained as a scientist. Dr. Paul Offit, whom I believe you know, says that we need ‘Journalism Jail’ for people who write and speak about vaccine science without proper qualifications. Bio Ethics is hardly a proper qualification to speak on scientific matters.
In that case, I suggest that you take the time to become informed enough to revise your positions on vaccinations since they are not supported by either reproducible science or epidemiology. I will remind you that Sanjay Gupta, MD, who is trained in these areas, recently decided that his position on hemp was wrong and publicly revised it, much to his credit.
2. You serve another master besides truth or ethics and it is profitable for you to disseminate incorrect information. If that is the case, there is something very biological about this, since the impulse to acquire goods and power is part of the biological matrix we are built upon, but there is certainly nothing ethical about it.

In response to Kevan Hulligan’s Article ‘Anti-vaccination’ movement is illogical
To Take Action Click Here.
Sorry. Your article is both wrong headed and, itself, illogical.
The statistics and epidemiological data are very clear: despite the religious fervor, not a single vaccine has reduced the incidence, prevalence or severity of a single infectious disease. Clean water, improved hygiene and nutrition did.
Edward Jenner was a mountebank who bought his medical degree for 25lbs from the University of Edinburgh and published his “results” before he conducted his “experiments”.
Although I believe that few people involved in vaccinology today are of the same cast of mind, the fact is that epidemics can be predicted by tracking vaccination programs: to misquote Freud, “Where vaccine is, there epidemic shall be”.
The epidemics include autism. No, it makes no sense to inject mercury (vials washed with mercury contain biologically meaningful amounts of mercury so that the total current vaccine schedule puts more mercury in children\s bodies than the total schedule did 20 years ago – and the autism rates make that clear. Flu vaccines contain mercury and babies are being damaged in utero by them in a frankly insane “public health” policy.)
Herd immunity is an absurd apologia for a failed health strategy: if vaccines worked, the vaccination status of the un-vaccinated would be irrelevant.
It is relevant to point out that according to US law, every vaccine approved for deployment in the US must be tested and found to be both safe and efficacious. In fact, only one placebo controlled, double blind study on a vaccine has ever been done where the placebo was not mercury (Thimerisol, 49.5% mercury by weight) or a much more dangerous vaccine known to have severe side effects (e.g., rabies).
That study showed that although any protective impact of the flu vaccine was not statistically significant, the likelihood of vaccinated people contracting serious pulmonary infections increased by more than 400%.
Un-vaccinated children are consistently found to be healthier than vaccinated ones.
Sorry. Being concerned about the health effects of vaccines is logical. Assurances that they are safe are profoundly illogical, based on the lack of evidence thereof.
Gardasil, for example, was found to result in death in 1 woman receiving it in 918 IN A STUDY BY MERCK, THE MANUFACTURER.
What is illogical about worrying about those odds?
Vaccine refusers do not endanger others. Vaccine dispensers do. And those who wish to exercise their best judgement for themselves and those they care for are prudent, reasonable and deserve our commendation for that prudence, not our condemnation for their independence of thought.
The only way to “assuage the fears and [misconceived] notions regarding these matters” is to acknowledge that the medical profession has made a hideous, and brutally defended, error and stop putting ineffective and unnecessary toxins in people.

In response to The Associated Press’ Article Vanderbilt hosts forum on the politics of childhood vaccines
To Take Action Click Here.
I wish I could attend. Childhood vaccination is a sacred cow of the highest order, so high, in fact, that the destruction of generations of children’s brains and immune systems is nearly invisible behind the “obvious good” of vaccination.
What is obvious is that a close examination of vaccine dangers, such as the recent studies showing that —
– 42.5% of all adverse drug reactions in children, which only looked at short term adverse events, is directly due to vaccines
– vaccinated children are routinely less healthy vaccinated ones
– most epidemics occur in the vaccinated
– all infectious disease rates were dropping before the introduction of the vaccines that supposedly wiped them out, and some, such as Hepatitis B, actually rose after the introduction of the vaccinations
– 1 woman in 981 receiving Gardasil will die as an adverse event linked to the vaccine (source: Merck-funded and published study)
– the total amount of mercury in the current vaccine schedule (including “mercury free vaccines”) is, because of the use of Thimerisol to wash even single dose vials is higher than when all childhood vaccines contained mercury
– despite total tort immunity for vaccine makers, the Vaccine Special Master’s Court has paid out nearly $3Billion US in awards for damage although most cases never get heard.
So I fully concur: a forum that looks squarely at political, medical and ethical debates surrounding childhood vaccines is most welcome, as long as the look is square, not blinded by commercial and other constraints that obscure the scientific and epidemiological realities so often buried under rhetoric and villification of the dissident, non-vaccine supporter.
So, will the forum be a whitewash or a debate and exploration?
I am looking forward to publication of the unedited videos of the discussion.
