The truth about vaccines risks and failures.

  • KIVI6 Interviews Health Freedom Idaho on Vaccine Exemptions

    KIVI6 Interviews Health Freedom Idaho on Vaccine Exemptions

    Each of these parents are advocates for informed consent, which starts with researching vaccines. Executive Director Miste Gardner-Karlfeldt along with Board Member Dr Rosie Gallegos-Main, and Executive Committee Member/Toxicologist Ashley Cates were interviewed by KIVI 6 On Your Side – ABC Boise/Nampa, Idaho regarding vaccine exemptions.

    Unfortunately, KIVI edited out the science that toxicologist Ashley Cates shared with the interviewer. Ashley’s ‘motherly intuition’ lead her to deeply research vaccines and what she found was shocking.

    I immersed myself in the world of vaccines and what people were saying and sharing about them. I read stories of vaccine injury, I learned about ingredients, I found out how common it is that parents are treated poorly by doctors for their hesitation to vaccinate, and so much more. Some of what I saw posted in these groups was shocking to me, upsetting, and most of the time sounded ludicrous. There were times I rolled my eyes and assumed the information I just read was nothing but a hoax – and then I realized later that it was true. 

    What information did this toxicologist use to make an informed vaccine decision for her children? It’s all right here: Researching Vaccines: Where to Start  

    Learn more about vaccines from Ashley’s un-aired interview with KBOI. 

    <Links to the science backing up her statements can be found here>

    “Whether you’re pro-vaccine, anti-vaccine, or fall somewhere in the middle, the questions you need to ask yourselves are as follows: Do you want to live in a world, where you cannot freely refuse a medical procedure that carries risk of injury or death? I’m not questioning your comfort level with today’s vaccine schedule, because today’s vaccine schedule will change. New vaccines and additional doses are added all the time. Children today receive as many as 49 doses of 14 vaccines before they reach age six, which is roughly 12 times higher than the number of vaccines administered to children back in 1940. 

    With more than 220 new vaccines in the developmental pipeline for children and adults…and no end in sight..the question you must ask yourself is ARE YOU CERTAIN you will be 100% comfortable with vaccines that are added to the mandated list in the future?

    If you say that yes, you’re comfortable, then you’re either:

    a) not expecting to be a parent or grandparent

    b) don’t have to worry about it because your kids are grown and out of the house

    c) lying to prove a point. 

    No critical thinker, no honest person, would ever sign off on the sight-unseen vaccine schedule of the future. And yet that’s what you’re doing when you condemn the people who are fighting for your right to refuse. YOU have the right to refuse, should you ever choose to use it, because the very “anti-vaccine” people you demonize have been fighting for us all. 

    Right now, the burden of “herd immunity” falls on small children, but that is changing. Vaccine manufacturers see an untapped market in adult vaccines and are coming for you next. <Learn the FACTS about herd immunity>

    What will you do if your state, your employer, or your insurance company forces you to get a vaccine that you simply don’t want? It hasn’t happened to you yet, but if the right to refuse is eroded, it will happen to you sooner than you might think. 

    Who then will you turn to? Your legislators who get campaign donations from pharmaceutical companies? The CDC that has former pharma executives sitting on the board? Who will you turn to if you ever want to say no? There will be no one. 

    Once we enter the slippery slope of removing and individual’s right to refuse medical procedures that carry a risk of injury or death, once we remove an individual’s right to speak for him/herself and his/her children, we open ourselves up to an insidious new era, where other drugs and other procedures can be mandated.”
    – by Magnolia Crawford

    There’s more information on other aspects of the vaccine issue, such as the lack of proper testing of vaccines, the major flaws with the studies performed by the manufacturers, and their lack of liability. There’s the issue of waning protection or having no protection at all (vaccine failure)… There’s post-vaccination viral shedding and asymptomatic transmission, antibodies not indicating immunity, germ theory vs. terrain theory, Th1 and Th2 immune responses, etc. You will come across all of this if you can make it a priority to invest the time.  CONS OF VACCINATING

    Here are some of the other comments from the KVIV facebook page. What do YOU have to add?

    Shalee Brindley 

    Are any of you who are advocating for vaccines aware that most vaccine inserts state..
    “This vaccine has not been been evaluated for its carcinogenic ,(cancer causing), mutagenic, (ability to mutate genes) potentials, or for impairment in fertility.

    Doesn’t sound like they have been proven safe to me. So what happens when an entire generation of children can no longer reproduce. Sorry, they said they were safe? Will that somehow make it better? Tread lightly. You advocate for mandatory vaccination and you will not have a choice when they decide to add whatever vaccines to the schedule they deem necessary. You may be fine with the schedule now, but wait until they add a few more. Wait until your grandchildren are receiving over 100 vaccines before their 18th birthday. 74 doses is already too much for me. I will not set my child on fire to keep yours warm.

    SimonaMona
    Thank you for  opening up this discussion. Looking forward to a balanced story. Informed Consent is the cornerstone of medicine, we must advocate for this.

    Melodie Brown 
    California made it mandatory for vaccines 2 years ago. Thank god I don’t live there. This is a slippery slope….This means you have no freedom of choice for your child’s health and wellness.


    What are YOUR thoughts? 

  • Unvaccinated Pose Zero Risk to the Public

    Unvaccinated Pose Zero Risk to the Public

    Open Letter to Legislators from Dr Tetyana Obukhanych. She has studied immunology in some of the world’s most prestigious medical institutions. She earned her PhD in Immunology at the Rockefeller University in New York and did postdoctoral training at Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA. and Stanford University in California. Every parent should watch this video. Helps to understand the difference between natural immunity and vaccination.


    Dear Legislator:

    My name is Tetyana Obukhanych. I hold a PhD in Immunology. I am writing this letter in the hope that it will correct several common misperceptions about vaccines in order to help you formulate a fair and balanced understanding that is supported by accepted vaccine theory and new scientific findings.

    Do unvaccinated children pose a higher threat to the public than the vaccinated?

    It is often stated that those who choose not to vaccinate their children for reasons of conscience endanger the rest of the public, and this is the rationale behind most of the legislation to end vaccine exemptions currently being considered by federal and state legislators country-wide. You should be aware that the nature of protection afforded by many modern vaccines – and that includes most of the vaccines recommended by the CDC for children – is not consistent with such a statement. I have outlined below the recommended vaccines that cannot prevent transmission of disease either because they are not designed to prevent the transmission of infection (rather, they are intended to prevent disease symptoms), or because they are for non-communicable diseases. People who have not received the vaccines mentioned below pose no higher threat to the general public than those who have, implying that discrimination against non-immunized children in a public school setting may not be warranted.

    IPV (inactivated poliovirus vaccine) cannot prevent transmission of poliovirus. Wild poliovirus has been non-existent in the USA for at least two decades. Even if wild poliovirus were to be re-imported by travel, vaccinating for polio with IPV cannot affect the safety of public spaces. Please note that wild poliovirus eradication is attributed to the use of a different vaccine, OPV or oral poliovirus vaccine. Despite being capable of preventing wild poliovirus transmission, use of OPV was phased out long ago in the USA and replaced with IPV due to safety concerns.

    Tetanus is not a contagious disease, but rather acquired from deep-puncture wounds contaminated with C. tetani spores. Vaccinating for tetanus (via the DTaP combination vaccine) cannot alter the safety of public spaces; it is intended to render personal protection only.

    While intended to prevent the disease-causing effects of the diphtheria toxin, the diphtheria toxoid vaccine (also contained in the DTaP vaccine) is not designed to prevent colonization and transmission of C. diphtheriae. Vaccinating for diphtheria cannot alter the safety of public spaces; it is likewise intended for personal protection only.

    The acellular pertussis (aP) vaccine (the final element of the DTaP combined vaccine), now in use in the USA, replaced the whole cell pertussis vaccine in the late 1990s, which was followed by an unprecedented resurgence of whooping cough. An experiment with deliberate pertussis infection in primates revealed that the aP vaccine is not capable of preventing colonization and transmission of B. pertussis. The FDA has issued a warning regarding this crucial finding.

    Furthermore, the 2013 meeting of the Board of Scientific Counselors at the CDC revealed additional alarming data that pertussis variants (PRN-negative strains) currently circulating in the USA acquired a selective advantage to infect those who are up-to-date for their DTaP boosters, meaning that people who are up-to-date are more likely to be infected, and thus contagious, than people who are not vaccinated.

    Among numerous types of H. influenzae, the Hib vaccine covers only type b. Despite its sole intention to reduce symptomatic and asymptomatic (disease-less) Hib carriage, the introduction of the Hib vaccine has inadvertently shifted strain dominance towards other types of H. influenzae (types a through f).These types have been causing invasive disease of high severity and increasing incidence in adults in the era of Hib vaccination of children. The general population is more vulnerable to the invasive disease now than it was prior to the start of the Hib vaccination campaign. Discriminating against children who are not vaccinated for Hib does not make any scientific sense in the era of non-type b H. influenzae disease.

    Hepatitis B is a blood-borne virus. It does not spread in a community setting, especially among children who are unlikely to engage in high-risk behaviors, such as needle sharing or sex. Vaccinating children for hepatitis B cannot significantly alter the safety of public spaces. Further, school admission is not prohibited for children who are chronic hepatitis B carriers. To prohibit school admission for those who are simply unvaccinated – and do not even carry hepatitis B – would constitute unreasonable and illogical discrimination.

    In summary, a person who is not vaccinated with IPV, DTaP, HepB, and Hib vaccines due to reasons of conscience poses no extra danger to the public than a person who is. No discrimination is warranted.

    How often do serious vaccine adverse events happen?

    It is often stated that vaccination rarely leads to serious adverse events. Unfortunately, this statement is not supported by science. A recent study done in Ontario, Canada, established that vaccination actually leads to an emergency room visit for 1 in 168 children following their 12-month vaccination appointment and for 1 in 730 children following their 18-month vaccination appointment.

    When the risk of an adverse event requiring an ER visit after well-baby vaccinations is demonstrably so high, vaccination must remain a choice for parents, who may understandably be unwilling to assume this immediate risk in order to protect their children from diseases that are generally considered mild or that their children may never be exposed to.

    Can discrimination against families who oppose vaccines for reasons of conscience prevent future disease outbreaks of communicable viral diseases, such as measles?

    Measles research scientists have for a long time been aware of the “measles paradox.” I quote from the article by Poland & Jacobson (1994) “Failure to Reach the Goal of Measles Elimination: Apparent Paradox of Measles Infections in Immunized Persons.” Arch Intern Med 154:1815-1820:

    “The apparent paradox is that as measles immunization rates rise to high levels in a population, measles becomes a disease of immunized persons.”

    Further research determined that behind the “measles paradox” is a fraction of the population called low vaccine responders. Low-responders are those who respond poorly to the first dose of the measles vaccine. These individuals then mount a weak immune response to subsequent RE-vaccination and quickly return to the pool of “susceptibles’’ within 2-5 years, despite being fully vaccinated.

    Re-vaccination cannot correct low-responsiveness: it appears to be an immuno-genetic trait. The proportion of low-responders among children was estimated to be 4.7% in the USA.

    Studies of measles outbreaks in Quebec, Canada, and China attest that outbreaks of measles still happen, even when vaccination compliance is in the highest bracket (95-97% or even 99%). This is because even in high vaccine responders, vaccine-induced antibodies wane over time. Vaccine immunity does not equal life-long immunity acquired after natural exposure.

    It has been documented that vaccinated persons who develop breakthrough measles are contagious. In fact, two major measles outbreaks in 2011 (in Quebec, Canada, and in New York, NY) were re-imported by previously vaccinated individuals.

    Taken together, these data make it apparent that elimination of vaccine exemptions, currently only utilized by a small percentage of families anyway, will neither solve the problem of disease resurgence nor prevent re-importation and outbreaks of previously eliminated diseases.

    Is discrimination against conscientious vaccine objectors the only practical solution?

    The majority of measles cases in recent US outbreaks (including the recent Disneyland outbreak) are adults and very young babies, whereas in the pre-vaccination era, measles occurred mainly between the ages 1 and 15. Natural exposure to measles was followed by lifelong immunity from re-infection, whereas vaccine immunity wanes over time, leaving adults unprotected by their childhood shots. Measles is more dangerous for infants and for adults than for school-aged children.

    Despite high chances of exposure in the pre-vaccination era, measles practically never happened in babies much younger than one year of age due to the robust maternal immunity transfer mechanism. The vulnerability of very young babies to measles today is the direct outcome of the prolonged mass vaccination campaign of the past, during which their mothers, themselves vaccinated in their childhood, were not able to experience measles naturally at a safe school age and establish the lifelong immunity that would also be transferred to their babies and protect them from measles for the first year of life.

    Luckily, a therapeutic backup exists to mimic now-eroded maternal immunity. Infants as well as other vulnerable or immunocompromised individuals, are eligible to receive immunoglobulin, a potentially life-saving measure that supplies antibodies directed against the virus to prevent or ameliorate disease upon exposure.

    In summary: 1) due to the properties of modern vaccines, non-vaccinated individuals pose no greater risk of transmission of polio, diphtheria, pertussis, and numerous non-type b H. influenzae strains than vaccinated individuals do, non-vaccinated individuals pose virtually no danger of transmission of hepatitis B in a school setting, and tetanus is not transmissible at all; 2) there is a significantly elevated risk of emergency room visits after childhood vaccination appointments attesting that vaccination is not risk-free; 3) outbreaks of measles cannot be entirely prevented even if we had nearly perfect vaccination compliance; and 4) an effective method of preventing measles and other viral diseases in vaccine-ineligible infants and the immunocompromised, immunoglobulin, is available for those who may be exposed to these diseases.

    Taken together, these four facts make it clear that discrimination in a public school setting against children who are not vaccinated for reasons of conscience is completely unwarranted as the vaccine status of conscientious objectors poses no undue public health risk.

    Sincerely Yours,

  • Scientific study confirms DTP vaccination increases risk of allergies

    Scientific study confirms DTP vaccination increases risk of allergies

    DTP or tetanus vaccination appears to increase the risk of allergies and related respiratory symptoms in children and adolescents.
    This study was done in 2000. At that time, the prevalence of allergic disorders had increased 50% to 100% among adults and more than doubled among children during the past 20 years. The scientific paper on the “Effects of Diphtheria-Tetanus-Pertussis or Tetanus Vaccination on Allergies and Allergy-Related
    Respiratory Symptoms Among Children and Adolescents in the United States”

    Findings from animal and human studies confirm that diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and pertussis (DTP) and tetanus vaccinations induce allergic responses; associations between childhood vaccinations and subsequent allergies have been reported recently.

  • Sample Letter for Religious Vaccine Exemption

    Sample Letter for Religious Vaccine Exemption

    The following is only an example of a letter of assertion of a religious exemption to vaccination.  This letter was used by Registered Nurse Nancy McQuiston, BSN, RN, NE-BCe, to obtain a permanent religious exemption from all vaccinations at the large health system she works for.  It is highly recommended that you do not copy this letter word for word.  Instead use this letter as a guide to develop your own assertion of religious exemption to vaccination.  The vaccine exemption committees are fast to catch on to form style letters if they detect replication. 

    You can tailor your letter to your individual beliefs.  For example, if you believe that receiving blood products go against your beliefs or even the particular religion you follow you might add that to your letter and add bible passages to support that belief.  This might add to the point that you are trying to make. For instance, that you believe no unclean or contaminated substance enter your body.

    It can be very tricky and there are pitfalls that people fall into like making it personal, attempting to argue a point or identifying with a particular religion that doesn’t necessarily disapprove of vaccinations.  The writing must be in a technical style.  This RN has advised others who she works with to follow this structure and they have all been granted a permanent religious exemption

    This RN used information written in an article from a group of physicians against mandatory vaccination due to a “deeply held personal belief” that happened to come from a Christian worldview

    Study your employer’s mandatory vaccination policy to determine exactly what information that employer is looking for in a religious exemption.  If you dont belong to a religion that strictly prohibits or recommends against vaccination avoid naming your faith.  Instead indicate in your letter that you have a Christian worldview.  This will help you avoid being required by your employer to provide a letter from a church authority.  Also study your state’s statute if one exists, to determine if you have a protected right to refuse vaccination and on what basis so that you can develop a letter that is well substantiated.

    Sample Letter

    Subject: Assertion of Religious Exemption to Vaccination

    To the Vaccine Exemption Committee,

    I hereby assert my right to a religious exemption from vaccination. I am a Christian who believes in the Bible, including the teachings in the New Testament. I have a Christian worldview. This perspective recognizes that faith and conscience compel an individual to submit to the proper jurisdiction within the rule of law, in this case, Divine Law. 

    I am objecting to vaccines because I believe in and follow God and the principles laid out in His Word and I have a deeply held belief that vaccines violate them. I believe my body is a temple for the Holy Spirit.

    Specifically, the New Testament teaches that:

    “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are…What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?” 1 Corinthians 3:16-17, 6:19 (KJV). 

    Accordingly I believe, pursuant to my Christian faith, that my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. It is a God-given responsibility and requirement for me to protect the physical integrity of my Body against unclean food and injections. 

    Vaccines contain neurotoxins, hazardous substances, attenuated viruses, animal parts, foreign DNA, albumin from human blood, carcinogens and chemical wastes that are proven harmful to the human body. (Please see http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/downloads/appendices/b/excipient-table-2.pdf).

    Not only the additives in vaccines considered contaminants from a biblical standpoint, the contaminants themselves are often contaminated. (Please see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20456974).

    At least 27 vaccines contain cells, cellular debris, protein and DNA (please see http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/downloads/appendices/B/excipient-table-2.pdf) from aborted babies including but not limited to Adenovirus, Polio, Dtap/Polio/HiB Combo, Hep A, Hep A/Hep B Combo, MMR, MMRV Pro Quad, Rabies, Varicella, Shingles vaccines, Ebola, tuberculosis, malaria and influenza (please see http://crucell.com/page/downloads/Factsheet_PER.C6_Technology.pdf).

    The broad prohibition against consuming anything that might “defile” the body, and hence the conscience, is stated again in 1 Corinthians 8:7:

    “Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.”

    Again in 2 Corinthians 7:1, there is this admonition against defiling the flesh and the spirit: 

    “Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”

    More broadly, the New Testament requires of Christians that we, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” (Mark 12:17). When it comes to consuming things into our own bodies, as opposed to make payments to government, compliance with God’s law is required.

    The mandated vaccine, with its numerous additives and it’s mechanism for altering my body, is the equivalent of a prohibited “unclean food” that causes harm to my conscience. Vaccines to me are unclean. I believe in and follow God and the principles laid out in His Word and I have a deeply held belief that vaccines violate them. 

    I will wear a face mask for infective protection for patients during periods of influenza risk upon approval notice of this exemption.

    I make this request for the glory of God and consistent with my faith. Thank you for your consideration of it.

    Respectfully,

    <Your Name>

  • Who do you trust to speak the truth on vaccine safety and efficacy?

    Who do you trust to speak the truth on vaccine safety and efficacy?

    Who do you trust to deliver accurate information on the risks of vaccines?

    The following individuals are pro-vaccine: 

    Professor Brian Cox, OBE FRS, physicist

    Bill Nye – mechanical engineer and television personality

    Neil deGrasse Tyson, PhD – astrophysics, physical cosmology, and television personality

    Bill Gates – attended college (did not finish), technology founder, philanthropist and “humanitarian”

    Dr. Paul  Offit, M.D. immunology, virology. He is the co-inventor of a rota-virus vaccine, now recommended for all infants by the CDCDoes it seem to be a conflict of interest to be such a staunch advocate for vaccines, especially when you are the recipient of income from a widely-used vaccine and pediatrician and director of the first children’s hospital that banned the use of dietary supplements to treat health issues?

    Do the background of these individuals make them qualified to speak on the safety and efficacy of vaccines? Their strategies typically involve use of fear and biased information to support a pro-vaccine stance. Here’s an important question: How much income do these individuals receive for their advocacy work?

    More significantly, these individuals fail to uphold Informed Consent, an “overarching ethical principle in the practice of medicine” that is repeatedly violated in medical, health environments and in public service and media messages. Read more from the National Vaccine Information Center

    The following individuals are pro-education regarding vaccine safety and efficacy:

    Dr. Suzanne Humphries, M.D., nephrologist (kidney disease)

    Dr. Tetyana Obukhanych, PhD, immunologist

    Dr. Richard Moskowitz, M.D.,. family practice

    Dr. Meryl Nass, M.D., internal medicine

    Dr. Susan McCreadie, M.D., Board Certified Pediatrician

    Dr. Theresa Deisher, PhD, Molecular and Cellular Physiology

    Dr. Robert Rowen, M.D., board certified in family practice and emergency medicine

    Dr. Peter Fletcher, PhD, former Chief Scientific Officer at the Department of Health in the UK

    These medical and scientific professionals use critical thinking, science and clinical experience to evaluate the impact vaccines have on health. They are the recipients of continual criticism and discrediting by mainstream media and “medical science” due to their willingness to speak out on the dangers posed by vaccines. Many professionals experience a reduction of income when they expose the dangers of vaccines. This doctor tells about his loss of 1.7 million annually in his clinic since making the decision to not require patients to vaccinate . 

    These medical and scientific professionals are upholding the principle of Informed Consent which says that as a patient (consumer) you have the right to disclosure of the risks of the treatment or procedure. The legal term for failing to obtain Informed Consent prior to receiving a test or procedure on a patient is known as battery (a form of assault).

    Read more on the profits made by the pharmaceutical industry and their influence on politicians here. 

    It is important to note that prior to the advent of vaccines, diseases were on the decline due to improvements in sanitation and nutrition, the advent of electricity, closed sewage systems, and refrigeration. Read more from Whale and the Weston A. Price Foundation.

    Prior to the 1980s, pharmaceutical companies faced bankruptcy when they threaten to discontinue manufacture of vaccines. The federal government opted  to “bail them out” rather than face the reality of their tainted products, and grant complete immunity from litigation when consumers experienced vaccine-injury. This was the start of something significant; consumers could no longer sue pharmaceutical companies for damage and had to file cases within the provisions and guidelines of the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986. Those who are successful are funded by all taxpayer dollars in the form of a “surcharge” applied to all vaccine costs. Read more from the National Vaccine Information Center.

  • Herd Immunity

    Herd Immunity

    Why Herd Immunity Does not Work

    If a vaccine produces any immunity at all, why on earth does it matter if anyone else is vaccinated? If vaccines produce “immunity” to the diseases for which they are given; it should not make a bit of difference who you are around or how many in the community are vaccinated. That’s like saying my bug spray won’t work unless you wear yours.

    Furthermore, if I take antibiotics for an illness, it will not affect your immune system a bit.

    True immunity is only granted through natural exposure to a disease. Artificial exposure through vaccination is not true immunity. Any questionable immunity gained through vaccination inevitably wanes over time.  Thus, the need for booster shots later.

    We actually have no proof that vaccines even work because the Centers for Disease Control, (CDC) refuses to vaccinate individuals and subsequently expose them to a disease. 

    The Herd Immunity Myth

    Vaccine-induced herd immunity is a myth. This can be proven quite simply. Here’s why: Did you know they used to teach doctors in medical school that childhood vaccines lasted a lifetime? This was believed for over 70 years.

    It was not until relatively recently that it was discovered that immunity from vaccination is not permanent. What this means is that at least 1/2 the population, have had no vaccine-induced immunity against any of these diseases for which they were vaccinated for very early in life. In essence, at least 50% or more of the population has been “unprotected” for decades.

    Over half of us are NON-VACCINATED! We’ve been going to churches, schools, parks, and swimming pools for years with non-vaccinated people and yet somehow we are all still alive!

  • Spermicide in the Flu Vaccine

    Spermicide in the Flu Vaccine

    Oxtoxynol-10 (TRITON X-100) and Polysorbate 80 are two of the ingredients in 2017 flu shot! Both can cause infertility!  Read for yourself the package insert for FLUARIX: FLUARIX package insert link. In their vaccine insert under section 13.1 we read, “FLUARIX QUADRIVALENT has not been evaluated for carcinogenic or mutagenic potential or male infertility.” Makers admit, the flu shot doesn’t work all the time. The manufacturer’s site.  Remember these pharmaceutical companies are not liable for any damages their vaccines might cause. In 2017, they are expected to profit 4.97 billion for the flu vaccine alone.

    https://www.fda.gov//Vaccin/ApprovedProducts/UCM220624.pdf


    Triton X100 and Octoxynol -9 and Octoxynol-10 are the same thing. The CDC shows it in the ingredients listing. You will get arguments about whether they are spermacides or not, however the CDC itself lists both Octoxynol-9 and 10 as Triton X 100.

    Octoxynol-9 — Teratogenic Agent: There is evidence to indicate that exposure to Octoxynol-9 during pregnancy may have a teratogenic effect on the fetus.
    A teratogen is a substance that can cause birth defects. The likelihood and severity of defects may be affected by the level of exposure and the stage of pregnancy that the exposure occurred at. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Octoxynol-9 — Teratogenic Agent is available below.

    Octoxynol 9 is also a vaginal spermicide, designed to “strip” sperm so they are no long able fertilize an egg. It is used in the following vaginal spermicide products: Koromex Cream and Ortho-Gynol. Another name for this is Triton X 100 which is listed below with more MSDS and information.

    Triton x-100 used as transport agent to cross blood brain barrier;ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4504453/ April 10, 2017

    The CDC Ingredients pdf shows it like this:
    Influenza (Fluarix) Trivalent & Quadrivalent
    octoxynol-10 (TRITON X-100), α-tocopheryl hydrogen succinate, polysorbate 80 (Tween 80), hydrocortisone, gentamicin sulfate, ovalbumin, formaldehyde, sodium deoxycholate, sodium phosphate-buffered isotonic sodium chloride
    You can see that they show oxtoxynol-10 as TritonX-100.

    Another is here from the CDC list
    Influenza (Fluzone) Intradermal
    egg protein, octylphenol ethoxylate (Triton X-100), sodium phosphate-buffered isotonic sodium chloride solution, sucrose
    octylphenol Ethoxylate is also Triton X 100.

    Other names
    1.Octoxinol
    2.Octoxinols
    3.Octoxynol
    4.Octoxynol 9
    5.Octoxynol-9

  • Are anti-vaxxers against all modern medicine, or just vaccines?

    Are anti-vaxxers against all modern medicine, or just vaccines?

    Are anti-vaxxers against ALL modern medicine, or just vaccines? The question has been posed several times. Here is a well written article by Allie Fujito answering the concerns that many people who find the conflict of interest in the pharmaceutical industry disconcerting, the declining health of our children alarming and the explosive list of mandated vaccines alarming. 

    Here is my answer to that:

    1) The word “anti-vaxxers” is a pejorative, meant to demean and polarize. If I criticize how Ford and Toyota handled their problems with stuck accelerators (denied that there was a problem, produced their own data showing no problem, blamed the drivers….and eventually admitted there was a problem),
    that does not make me “anti-accelerator,” “anti-car,” or even “anti-Ford” or “anti-Toyota.”

    Using pejoratives like “anti-vaxxer” puts the focus on the critic, rather than where it belongs: on the problem pointed out by the critic.

    See how that works?

    2) Criticizing today’s bloated vaccine program does not mean that the critic is against everything the medical/pharmaceutical industry does.

    IT MEANS THAT WE’RE CRITICIZING TODAY’S BLOATED VACCINE PROGRAM.

    So let’s stick to discussing THAT.

    In case you do not already know:

    3) Statins, antibiotics, cough syrup, antihistamines, steroids, antacids, and chemotherapy are not mandated in order for your child to attend daycare, school, or summer camp, nor are they mandated in order to attend college, nor are they mandated to work in a hospital, clinic, doctor’s office, or school. But vaccines are.

    4) If you have a severe adverse reaction to statins, antibiotics, cough syrup, antihistamines, steroids, antacids, chemotherapy or any other pharmaceutical product, and you can prove that the product could have been made to have a better safety profile, you can sue the manufacturer.

    You cannot sue the vaccine manufacturers. They are protected by the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which indemnifies all vaccine manufacturers, as well as those who administer them, no matter how severe your reaction is.

    5) If your doctor prescribes a drug that’s inappropriate for you–say, amoxicillin when you’ve already had an allergic reaction to it–you can sue him or her for malpractice.

    You cannot sue doctors for giving you the wrong vaccine — say, giving an infant Gardasil, which is not designed for infants, and is not part of the infant schedule –nor can you sue them for giving you a vaccine where a past dose of the same vaccine had already caused you to have a bad reaction. They’re protected by the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act.

    Their liability free vaccines means that vaccine manufacturers have absolutely no motivation to make vaccines safer. THEY cannot be sued for adverse reactions. THEY staff the government committees that decide the vaccine schedule. THEY define what is and is not considered a vaccine reaction. THEY control legislators via the most aggressive lobbying of any industry.

    Here is an excellent discussion of just some of the problems:https://www.ebcala.org/unanswered-questions/vaccine-epidemic

    6) Vaccines are not held to the same standard of safety testing that all other pharmaceuticals are required to undergo. Classified as “biologicals,” rather than as “medication,” they are not required to be safety-tested against an inert placebo, nor are they required to show long-term health outcomes.

    In fact, the package insert for every vaccine clearly states, “___ [this vaccine] has not been assessed for carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, or impairment of fertility.”

    Take a look at how the vaccine schedule increased after the implementation of that 1986 Act. Remember, it protects the manufacturers, not the people who get vaccinated. Keep in mind, the members of the CDC’s Advisory Council on Immunization Practices — who determine which vaccines are on the schedule — are mainly from the vaccine industry.

    That’s called “conflict of interest.”

    The conversation continued on facebook with these valid points: 

    If the chances of a severe reaction from a shot are x, and the chances of successfully preventing the disease (that the shot is supposed to immunize against) is y, what values of x and y are acceptable to go ahead with the shot?  

    Allie Fujito says: You put your finger on a major part of the issue, Grant Sbrocco .

    A couple of problems: 

    1. We don’t KNOW what the chances are of severe reactions, because reactions go unrecognized and unreported. 
    2. It’s a bit of a fallacy to compare the chance of preventing a disease with the chance of adverse reaction from the vaccine because many of the diseases we vaccinate for are not problematic for the vast majority who get them. 

    What we should be looking at is: WHO IS SUSCEPTIBLE?

    Who is likely to have complications from disease? What can we do to improve their chances?

    Who is likely to have adverse reactions to vaccines? 

    We know some of these susceptibilities, yet we do NOTHING to screen for them. 

    • We KNOW that vitamin A deficiency is responsible for most measles complications. And we know that both complications and death rates are low in developed countries. So why is vaccinating the entire population considered the one and only answer?
    • We know that some people have genetic mutations, such as MTHFR mutations, that impair the ability to excrete the heavy metals that are in vaccines. We also know of other predispositions, that may be either genetic or acquired, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, celiac disease, and other autoimmune issues. So whey THE HELL aren’t we screening for these issues before vaccinating? 

    And why has the government allowed vaccine manufacturers to completely skip studying long-term health outcomes between vaccinated and unvaccinated populations? 

    READ THIS CAREFULLY.

    “Objectives: We sought to investigate roles that Merck & Co Inc played in state human papillomavirus (HPV) immunization policymaking, to elicit key stakeholders’ perceptions of the appropriateness of these activities, and to explore implications for relationships between health policymakers and industry.”

    “Conclusions: Although policymakers acknowledge the utility of manufacturers’ involvement in vaccination policymaking, industry lobbying that is overly aggressive, not fully transparent, or not divorced from financial contributions to lawmakers risks undermining the prospects for legislation to foster uptake of new vaccines.”

    MY TRANSLATION: “We looked at how Merck influences government policy regarding Merck’s most expensive–and most controversial–vaccine. We saw that the entire process is corrupt. We are afraid to say so in so many words.”

    Here’s some additional points Health Freedom Idaho would like to add:

    7) The SAME Pharmaceutical Companies that create vaccines have ALL pled guilty to FRAUD in the last seven years. These companies have NO motivation to create safe vaccines (since any damage their vaccines cause don’t reduce profit). These corporations do not comply to laws in place to protect consumers admitting fraud. See our well cited article at Vaccine Makers Fraud 

    8) Are children healthier NOW then children in the early 80’s? Is this explosive schedule of vaccines REALLY about increasing HEALTH? Or is it about increasing the WEALTH of the pharmaceutical companies. 54% of our children are dealing with chronic (long-term) disease. 
    Have we traded acute illness for chronic disease?
