A
Letter to Grandparents on the Polio Vaccine |
Recently, I received an email from a
grandparent named Richard pertaining to the polio epidemic. This is a very
important question and I decided to share this with those who visit my site.
I get asked regularly about the polio epidemic and those who ask me feel that
the vaccine is responsible for saving thousands of lives and believe the
vaccine eradicated polio. I share this with you to hopefully give those who
were growing up in the 1920’s to 1950’s a different point of view. This is
part of Richard’s email:
“You see, I can remember what it
used to be like. Early fall was a time of fear, public pools closed, my friends
couldn’t come out and play and the papers had pictures of other kids in iron
lungs or leg braces. We feared disease. We knew measles could kill. We knew kids
who wore leg braces. We remembered a President with polio.”
“It seems your goal is not only
to make vaccination voluntary but my guess is that you
want to live in a world where there are no vaccinations. I used to live
in a world where that was partially true. Trust me, you wouldn’t like it.”
Sincerely,
Richard
I want to first thank Richard for
taking the time to email me and visit my web site. I know that many people who
grew up in the 1920 – 1950 era feel this way. I feel that this topic needs to
be addresses from a historical view.
First, looking back historically, these
infectious illnesses referred to were very prevalent in the mid 1800’s to early
1900’s. Several studies have proven that these infectious diseases were
almost completely gone before vaccines were introduced. The death rates
were at all time lows through out United States and Great Brittan and countries
without vaccines also had decreases. I believe that Americans have been sold a
lie. The statement below is from a very reliable source and is one of many.
“According to the World Health
Statistics Annual of 1973-1976 said that there had been a steady
decline in infectious diseases in most developing countries regardless of
vaccines administered. They believe that the diseases disappeared as a
result of improved sanitation, improved water supplies improved personal
hygiene and better nutrition. In addition, diseases for which there were no
vaccines also declined dramatically. From 1850 to 1940, diseases had declined
by 90% and were at an all time low, just when vaccines were being introduced.”
See the charts below, showing when
vaccines were introduced for specific diseases. These charts are from the books
of Neil Miller, author and researcher available on
www.thinktwice.com.



The American Medical Association and
the Center for Disease Control have taken credit for eradicating diseases in the
United States when in fact; they were on their way out because of previously
stated reasons.
The small pox vaccine did not
eradicate small pox as we have been told. Only 10% of the world’s population
received the vaccine. In a June 19-20, 2002 meeting in Atlanta Georgia meeting
the Advisory Committee on Immunizations Practice said that small pox would have
died out on its own due to improved sanitation, improved water supply and
improved nutrition. It is my opinion that the only way to help our third world
countries is to improve these environmental problems and they too, will have
better health. The answer is not injecting toxic vaccines into people who
already are not healthy!
The email went on to say:
“You can afford to ignore the good immunization does and
concentrate on the slightest risk because you have no fear of
those diseases that my generation had to live with. You can claim that
vaccines cause autism because autism is something you know and fear and
because you can’t do anything about it and you have to find a cause.”
First, in response to Richard’s
reference of “the slightest risks”:
I have been researching the “risks of
vaccinations” for the last 25 years. The autism epidemic in the country now
affects 1 in every 150 school age children and learning disabilities are
1 in 6 children. Vaccines are being linked to many other chronic health
problems such as diabetes, asthma and seizure disorders and at alarming
rates. I do not consider these “slightest risks”. On the other
hand, most infectious illnesses are not life threatening unless a child is
already sick or immune compromised. Complete recovery from these illnesses is
the normal for most, with life time immunity. However, vaccine induced chronic
illnesses are life sentences for most children and are causing financial,
emotional and economical devastation to the whole country. Congressman Burton
said, “Every day these vaccines are out there, 8000 children are at risk.” He
was referring to vaccines with thimerosal and I believe they still are using
thimerosal in the vaccines. The estimated average cost to take care of one
child with autism is 2 million dollars over the lifetime and we are not
prepared to take care of a whole generation of autistic adults, most of which
are males.
Addressing Richard’s statement,
“You can claim that vaccines cause autism…”
I have met thousands of parents at
autism conferences around the country and most believe that their children were
developing quite well until their second or third dose of vaccines. There are
hundreds of doctors and researchers who point the finger to vaccines as the
#1 cause, not discounting other causes. When you consider what is in
vaccines, it is no surprise that children and senior citizens are full of neuro
toxins leading to a variety of illnesses.
Vaccine Ingredients: Some
of the known toxins in vaccines:
·
Phenol, (poison)
Formaldehyde (cancer causing and used to embalm)
·
Alum (a preservative)
·
Acetone (used in nail
polish remover)
·
Aluminum phosphate (used
in deodorants, toxic)
·
Glycerin (toxic to the
kidney, liver, can cause lung damage, gastrointestinal damage and death).
·
Monosodium Glutamate
(MSG)
·
Fecal Matter, Horse
serum, Calf serum, Urine, chick embryo,
·
lead and cadmium and
thimerosal (ethyl mercury) used in over 50 vaccines
·
Sulfates, yeast
proteins, antibiotics, as well as unknown amounts of RNA and DNA from animal and
human cell tissue cultures.
Vaccine Production: Virus is gathered from sick infected person or
animal from urine, blood, puss or feces that must be grown on a toxic medium:
decomposing animal organs;
baby hamsters, African monkey kidneys, chicken eggs, aborted fetal
tissue to name a few. Once it is grown it is inactivated with formaldehyde,
aluminum or other agents. Then it is preserved with other toxins which are
unnatural, synthetic, and immune suppressing and/or carcinogenic.
The growth mediums for the virus are known to be contaminated with
retroviruses foreign to humans, rare genetic material (DNA, RNA), monkey kidneys
and other animals.
More on the Polio Vaccine:
It is known that the live polio vaccine contained SV40, a
cancer-producing virus and for the first time a hearing was held in
Washington on September 9, 2003 by the
Subcommittee on Human Health and Wellness, U.S. Government Reform Committee
Chaired by Congressman Burton (R-IN). SV40 is associated with
brain, bone and lung tumors found in children and adults today from
vaccinations. This vaccine was used until the late 90’s.
Previously in Washington on August 3,
1999 at a Polio Vaccine Hearing by the Committee on Government Reform and
Oversight and House of Representatives:
Written testimony of Dr. Howard B.
Urnovitz
I am grateful to this committee for allowing me to address the issue of vaccine
safety. I am Dr. Howard B. Urnovitz. In 1979, I received my doctorate degree in
Microbiology and Immunology from the University of Michigan, where I studied
vaccines. I am testifying today as the Scientific Director of the Chronic
Illness Research Foundation. For the record, I am also the chief science officer
of a biotechnology corporation.
Howard Urnovitz said, “On the issue of
informed consent: Had my mother and father known that the polio virus vaccines
of the 1950s were heavily contaminated with more than 26 monkey
viruses, including the cancer virus SV40, I can say with certainty that they
would not have allowed their children and themselves to take those
vaccines. Both of my parents might not have developed cancers suspected of
being vaccine-related, and might even be alive today. Government, industry, and
medicine should embrace the ethical principle of informed consent about possible
adverse reactions associated with vaccines.”
Our government is trying to hide behind
“junk science” riddled with conflict of interest in our Institute of Medicine,
Federal Drug Administration and the Center for Disease Control. The time is
coming when they will not be able to deny their responsibility in the
catastrophic rise in illness due to toxic vaccines.
Most people, including your medical
doctor, do not know what is in vaccines, how vaccines are manufactured or
developed. According to Dr. Robert Mendelsohn, renowned pediatrician for 30
years and author of several books such as, “The Medical Heretic” and “How to
Raise a Healthy Child in Spite of Your Doctor, he writes the following; “The
pediatrician serves as the recruiter for the medical profession. He
indoctrinates your child from birth into a lifelong dependency on medical
intervention. The best way to raise a healthy child is to keep him/her away
from the doctors except emergency care. Most doctors ignore the fact that the
human body is a wondrous machine with the astonishing capacity to repair
itself.” Dr. Mendelsohn goes on to say “The first stage of the indoctrination
is the well baby visit- a cherished ritual of the pediatrician that enhances
their income but does nothing constructive for your child. Well baby visits are
worthless...” page 24-24. “The purpose of the pediatrician is to vaccinate
your child.” In chapter 19 he states, “The greatest threat of childhood disease
lies in the dangerous and ineffectual efforts made to prevent them-mass
immunizations.” He goes on to call vaccines the “sacred cow” of modern
medicine.
Could it be that a whole generation of
Americans has been told a big lie?
The email said, “autism is
something you know and fear and because you can’t do anything about it
and you have to find a cause.”
I will say first of all, I do not fear
autism; I have compassion for the unsuspecting victims of vaccine injury and
their families. I believe the good Lord has me in a position to help them and
stop further injury. I want to see a study comparing the un vaccinated children
with the vaccinated children. I believe that the truth would be exposed if this
study is done.
In the statement about autism, “because
you can’t do anything about it
I am doing much and so are many other
people! I help parents get fully informed before they vaccinate, which I
believe will make a huge difference. Most parents do not know what they are
consenting to, just as I believe you did not know what you were taking when you
were given the live oral polio sugar cube vaccine. After attending my vaccine
presentations, most parents will think hard and long before giving any vaccines
and most importantly, will make a fully informed decision, understanding all the
risks.
Dr. Boyd Haley from University of
Kentucky has studied newborn babies for mercury toxicity. He has found that if
the mother had amalgam dental fillings, the baby will be born with a full load
of mercury. We then begin to vaccinate day one with vaccines containing other
toxins including mercury and the direct effect on the brain is shocking. These
babies don’t stand a chance.
Yes, some babies are born with autism
but we also have vaccinated two generations before with mercury laced
vaccines. How will we ever know if a child is born with autism unless we
postpone vaccinations until later in life? The problem will only get worse as
we add more vaccines to the already heavy burden of 23 shots for 13 diseases by
6 months of age!
Richard then stated, “and
you have to find a cause.”
You’re not suggesting that there is no
cause and we should not search for one, are you? There are hundreds of children
who have recovered from full blown autism with the right detoxification and
nutrition program, which proves that if you know the cause, you can find
the cure. This is not easy and all children will not recover because
the damage is so severe. Defeat Autism Now is a national group of doctors and
researchers who are un-raveling the complex problems facing vaccine induced
autism. What an eye opening experience it would be for the American Mom and Dad
to attend a conference and discover what they are unveiling. Eliminate vaccines
and other contributing factors and I believe autism will eventually go away
along with many other chronic problems.
Richard ended his email wit this
statement:
“It seems your goal is not only to make vaccination
voluntary but my guess is that you want to live in a world where
there are no vaccinations. I used to live in a world where that was
partially true. Trust me, you wouldn’t like it.”
Richard, I believe in Freedom and
Liberty. As a parent, an American and an adult, I do not want my government
telling me what I must put into my body or my children’s bodies. I no longer
trust those who hold powerful positions in our government because I believe
their motive is no longer the well being of the citizens of this country.
Unfortunately, the burden of proof is on the parents who believe childhood
vaccines have injured or killed their children. Vaccines, at this time, are the
only mandated drugs and therefore, should be proven safe and effective. There
are no long term safety studies and the studies the drug manufactures present
are flawed and bias. The Institute of Medicine gets a percent of every vaccine
given in this country. There should be no financial ties allowed. On Feb 27,
2005 the New York Times reported that the CDC dismantled the vaccine
safety department because its primary focus is to promote vaccines. The IOM
wants a new separate department made up of parents and independent people who
will truly look at vaccine safety. This is a huge step in the right direction!
I love
this quote!
“When we give the power to government
to make medical decisions for us, in essence, the state owns our bodies”. U.S.
Representative Ron Paul M.D.
I hope this paper has addressed the
issue of polio and other infectious illnesses. My opinion is that when a
healthy child gets normal childhood illnesses, it can help develop a strong
immune system. The more we allow our bodies to work out these immune hurtles in
life, the better we will function in this hostel environment as adults. Our
focus should not be on chasing germs and viruses. It should be on promoting
health naturally by supporting immune function and development. Our world is
full of healthier options such as chiropractic, essential oils, homeopathy, good
nutrition and an active life style to name a few.
This paper is a small example of the
information I present at my vaccine lecture. For a schedule of my speaking
events or to schedule a presentation, see my home page on my web site for the
complete schedule.
Working today for a better tomorrow,
