diphtheria, tetanus, hepatitis B, and whooping cough. A young person’s immune system hasn't typically
matured enough to be effective against this type of onslaught
No less dangerous is the Guillain-Barré syndrome which leads to paralysis and is caused by
immunizations for measles, diphtheria, influenza, tetanus, and the oral polio vaccine. This is hardly
surprising when one considers the high toxicity of the vaccines. It is well known that children whose
immune systems are already weak experience more serious complications than those whose constitution
and immune system are much stronger. Still, vaccines are given indiscriminately regardless of the
children’s health status. Many children at infancy don’t even get the chance to be healthy later in life
because they are pumped full of these poisons against which they are helpless. At this stage of
development, a child has not yet acquired full natural immunity and has little ability to protect himself.
Increasing evidence shows that chronic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, encephalitis, multiple
sclerosis, leukemia, other forms of cancer and even AIDS diseases are linked to vaccinations administered
in the early stages of life. Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints, which had been
thought to afflict only the elderly. More recently though, the crippling disease has spread among the
young generation and measles and rubella inoculations have been identified as the cause.
Researchers from the American Food and Drug Administration discovered that vaccinations,
particularly the hepatitis B shot, could cause hair loss. They estimate that 50,000 Americans suffer hair
loss (alopecia) after immunization every year. The report was published by the Journal of the American
Medical Association in 1997.
It is nearly impossible to estimate the damage and suffering that has been created and will occur in the
future as a result of inadequate information about the dangers of modern immunization programs. Parents
want to do what is best for their children and they carry a heavy burden of responsibility to keep them
healthy and safe. Misinformation can create a strong conflict in parents because they don’t want to neglect
their children’s health or cause them any harm.
Most health authorities are not exactly helpful in supporting parents to choose what is best for their
children. In spite of damaging evidence, such as the following, they still support the use of
immunizations. For instance, the use of the mercury-based thimerosal as a preservative in vaccines has
been associated with autism. Despite the evidence, mercury is still being added to vaccines at completely
unsafe levels considering the fact that it is a known neurotoxin. A recent study conducted by the
University of Calgary showed that mercury ions alter the cell-membrane of developing neurons in babies
and young children, directly contributing to autism.
In the late 1990s, the U.S. Public Health Service and the American Academy of Pediatrics petitioned
drug companies to remove thimerosal from vaccines intended for children. Why? Well, in one study that
examined CDC statistics, researchers found evidence that children who receive just three vaccines
containing thimerosal are 27 times more likely to develop autism, compared to children who get
vaccinations containing no thimerosal. That’s a 2,700 percent increase. Who needs more proof than that?
Apparently, the current (2007) administration of the U.S. government does.
Despite a 2004 campaign promise to the contrary, President Bush promised to veto the HHS-Labor-
Education Appropriations Bill, which includes a measure to ban childhood flu vaccines that contain
thimerosal because of cost concerns. As for now, despite the warnings, flu vaccines which contain
thimerosal continue to be recommended for all pregnant women, infants and children, even though the
Institute of Medicine recommended in 2001 that these population groups not be exposed to thimerosal-
containing vaccines. One in every six women of childbearing age has enough mercury in her bloodstream
to cause neurological damage to her unborn children, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency.
