Disease risk vs Vaccine risk
" (Vaccine) adverse effects are amply documented and are far more significant to public health than any adverse effects of infectious diseases. Immunizations not only did not prevent any infectious diseases, they caused more suffering and more deaths than has any other human activity in the entire history of medical intervention. It will be decades before the mopping-up after the disasters caused by childhood vaccination will be completed."--- Dr. Viera Scheibner, PhD
"Measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, and the whole panoply of childhood diseases are a far less serious threat than having a large fraction (say 10%) of a generation afflicted with learning disability and/or uncontrollable aggressive behavior because of an impassioned crusade for universal vaccination."---ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN PHYSICIANS & SURGEONS
"Instead of epidemics of measles and polio, we have epidemics of chronic autoimmune and neurological disease: In the last 20 years rates of asthma and attention-deficit disorder have doubled, diabetes and learning disabilities have tripled, chronic arthritis now affects nearly one in five Americans and autism has increased by 300 percent or more in many states."----Barbara Loe Fisher
Disease risk:
"Doctors maintain that the (MMR) inoculation is necessary to prevent measles encephalitis, which they say occurs about once in 1,000 cases. After decades of experience with measles, I question this statistic, and so do many other pediatricians. The incidence of 1/1,000 may be accurate for children who live in conditions of poverty and malnutrition, but in the middle-and upper-income brackets, if one excludes simple sleepiness from the measles itself, the incidence of true encephalitis is probably more like 1/10,900 or 1/100,000."------Dr Mendelsohn
Measles risks reduced to virtually nil with non-drug medicine
Naturopathy:
"I have myself, through Natural Hygiene, over 16 years, treated all
forms and hundreds of cases of typhus and typhoid fevers, pneumonia's, measles and
dysentery's, and have not lost a single patient. The same is true of scarlet and other
fevers. No medicine whatever was given".--Dr Trall,
1860.
Homeopathy:
"Most parents today find it quite difficult to understand why they have to have their
child vaccinated against this particular disease (measles) when their mothers used
to organise measles parties to ensure all the children of the family had it!"
In fact a mild dose of measles stimulates the immature immune system, in the correct
sequence, to develop naturally, thereby strengthening the child generally."--Christina J Head MCH Rs. Hon
Mumps:
"The BNF for 1985 states (page 385) that mumps and its complications are
rarely serious. For this reason it goes on to suggest that there is little
indication for the routine use of mumps vaccine."--Dr JK Anand (10/2001 BMJ)
"Mumps is a common childhood disease which is benign in the in the vast majority of cases. It is desirable that mumps be contracted in early childhood because, when contracted in adulthood, the disease may cause meningitis and/or damage to the testes, ovaries, auditory nerves or pancreas. However, and equally importantly, women are less likely to contract ovarian cancer if they have had mumps during childhood (West 1966)."---Viera Scheibner, Ph.D.
"The mumps vaccine, a high-risk, low-benefit product struck me and plenty of other doctors as silly from the moment it was introduced........the chance of sterility from mumps is overrated since in practically every case of mumps orchitis (inflammation of the testes) only one testis is affected, and a man could repopulate the entire world with the other one."--Dr Mendelsohn MD
"A study by Ronne (Lancet, 5/5/85 1-5) showed that adults who had had natural measles with a rash had a decreased incidence of various cancers, including cervical. Another study showed that women are less likely to contract ovarian cancer if they have had mumps during childhood."--Dr Jayne Donegan
Diptheria:
"In view of the rarity of the disease (diptheria), the effective antibiotic
treatment now available, the questionable effectiveness of the vaccine, the multimillion
dollar annual cost of administering it, and the ever-present potential for harmful,
long-term effects from this or any other vaccine, I consider continued mass immunization
against diphtheria indefensible"---Dr Mendelsohn MD
Rubella:
"Study after study has demonstrated that many women immunized
against rubella as children lack evidence of immunity in blood tests given during their
adolescent years. Other tests have shown a high vaccine failure rate in children given
rubella, measles, and mumps shots, either separately or in combined form."---Dr Mendelsohn
Vaccine risks:
"Probably 20% of American children—one youngster in five--- suffers from "development disability". This is a stupefying figure…...... the primary cause of encephalitis...... is the childhood vaccination program. To be specific, a large proportion of the millions of US children and adults suffering from autism, seizures, mental retardation, hyperactivity, dyslexia, and other shoots or branches of the hydraheaded entity called "development disabilities", owe their disorders to one or another of the vaccines against childhood diseases."—Harris L. Coulter, Ph.D.
MMR vaccine:
Autism (287), Crohn’s disease and other serious chronic stomach problems
(136), Epilepsy (132), Other forms of brain damage (induding meningitis, cerebral palsy, encephalopathy, encephalitis etc.) (77), Hearing
and vision problems (81), Arthritis
(50), Behavioural and learning problems (in older children) (110), Chronic
fatigue syndrome (41), Diabetes (15), Guillain-Barre
syndrome (9), Idiopathic thrombocytopaenic
purpura (and other purpuras) (6), Subacute Sclerosing
Panencephalitis (SSPE) (3), Wegener’s Granulamatosis (2), Leukaemia
(1), Multiple sclerosis (1), Death (18). (Dawbarns fact sheet.)
DPT vaccine:
"We concluded that the DPT shot causes a minimum of 12,000
cases of severe neurological damage every year, in addition to the 6000 deaths
diagnosed as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. The neurological
damage includes juvenile-onset diabetes, so-called "congenital" blindness,
deafness, mental retardation, autism, epilepsy, seizures, various kinds of paralyses and
palsies, and other neurological disorders."--Harris Coulter
Ph.D.
Otitis media:
"At least half of all U.S children have had otitis media by their first
birthday. ......Just imagine what it means if this is all, or mostly all, caused by the
pertussis vaccine. This particular "glue ear" type of otitis was not known in
American medical practice before the late 1940's or early 1950's -- in other words, the
time when the pertussis vaccine was being introduced. "--Harris
Coulter Ph.D.
"A young Australian lady, living in England, organized one of my many seminars there and told me that her father told her "go to Viera's seminars and do not vaccinate your children. All those ear infections, and problems like glue ear, are caused by vaccination". When I asked her who is her father, she said "he is an ENT specialist in Brisbane, Australia". --Viera Scheibner
Diabetes:
"I have published many articles linking vaccines and diabetes. In
one study, a clinical trial on the hemophilus vaccine, I showed that the risk of the
vaccine exceeds the benefit. This is published by the British medical
Journal."--Bart Classen
"In 1947, there were an estimated 600,000 cases of diabetes in the United States.....Today the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.'s quarterly Statistical Bulletin estimates that diabetics make up 5 percent of the US population, or 13 million persons.......So, while the US population has approximately doubled since the 1940's, the number of diabetics has risen more than 20 times."--Harris Coulter
Autism rare before mass DPT vaccination.
Now 1 in 100 children are autistic:
"Vaccination programs were instituted in the late 1930s, and the
first handful of autistic babies were noted in the early 1940s. When vaccination programs
were expanded after the war, the number of autistic children increased greatly."---Harris Coulter Ph.D.
NVICP has paid out for 50 deaths per year:
The US Federal Government's National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP)
has paid out over 724.4 million dollars to parents of vaccine injured and killed children,
in taxpayer dollars. The NVICP has received over 5000 petitions since 1988, including over
700 for vaccine-related deaths, and there are still over 2800 total death and injury cases
pending that may take years to resolve (NVICP, Health Resources and Services
Administration).
"The number of vaccination deaths overwhelms disease (pertussis) deaths: 32 in a three year period according to the CDC (1992-94), and only 8 in 1993, the last peak incidence year....Simply put, the vaccine may be more than 100 times more deadly than the disease "--Alan Phillips (This doesn't take into account the SIDS--DPT connection).
Hepatitis (does this look like a vaccine for children?):
"The risk factors include: sexually active heterosexual adults with
more than one sex partner in the prior six months or a history of sexually transmitted
disease; homosexual and bisexual men; illicit injection drug users; persons at
occupational risk of infection; hemodialysis patients; household and sex contacts of
persons with chronic hepatitis B infection; and infants born to hepatitis B infected
women."--Dr Waisbren MD
Hepatitis vaccine:
"Children younger than 14 are three times more likely to die or
suffer adverse reactions after receiving hepatitis B vaccines than to catch the
disease," ---- Jane. M. Orient, M.D., Executive Director of AAPS
