New Studies Reveal Vaccine Harm
When it comes to vaccine safety, a complaint that I’ve frequently expressed is the lack of credible studies comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated populations. At best, we’ve had vaccination surveys based on self-reported data, and while that evidence strongly suggested unvaccinated children experience better health and fewer health problems…

The idea that unvaccinated people are to blame for certain infectious disease outbreaks has become a common refrain in the media—mainly due to ignorance and fears fueled by that ignorance. The idea that people who get vaccinated with ineffective or live virus vaccines are playing a role in such outbreaks is much less popular—or well known.
Repeat Influenza Vaccination Yields Reduced Antibody Response
Multiple vaccinations may not afford better protection against influenza viruses than fewer inoculations, according to an Australian study of vaccine responses in health care workers (HCWs) reported in Vaccine. Postvaccine protective antibody titers were highest in HCWs who were vaccinated…
Russell Blaylock, MD on How Vaccines Activate the Secretion of Destructive Chemicals in the Brain
The brain’s [microglia] immune system cells, once activated [by a vaccine], begin to move about the nervous system, secreting numerous immune chemicals (called cytokines and chemokines) and pouring out an enormous amount of free radicals in an effort to kill invading organisms.
The Smallpox Vaccine Was No Silver Bullet

Jenner’s experiments during the late 18th century, when he was searching for a way to prevent smallpox, gained for him widespread fame as the father of immunology. Jenner formulated his theory…
