Barbara Loe Fisher on the Illusion of Herd Immunity from Pertussis Vaccine
What we know now is that DPT vaccine that was introduced in the late-1940s in [the United States] and used on a mass basis and the DTaP vaccine that replaced DPT in the late-1990s, neither of those vaccines could prevent infection and transmission of infection by vaccinated persons. What you have is a lot of people who have been vaccinated who have mild symptoms or are asymptomatic, no symptoms at all, who can become infected and transmit to both vaccinated…
Marco Cáceres on How Educated, Intelligent People Can Question Vaccines
The fact that people, who are educated, trained in critical thinking, and financially solvent, are choosing to do their own research and make independent decisions about vaccination is commonly recognized in the evolving debate on the safety and effectiveness of vaccines and the ethics of mandatory vaccination policies.
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.
Dr. Vernon Coleman on How the Smallpox Vaccine Did Not Eradicate Smallpox
One of the medical profession’s greatest boasts is that it eradicated smallpox through the use of the smallpox vaccine. I myself believed this claim for many years. But it simply isn’t true. One of the worst smallpox epidemics of all time took place in England between 1870 and 1872—nearly two decades after compulsory vaccination was introduced.
Joseph Mercola, DO on the Decline of Mercury and Increase of Aluminum in Vaccines
Mercury (thimerosal) exposure has declined significantly since it was eliminated from the single-dose vials of most childhood vaccines, yet autism rates have continued to skyrocket. This has led many to assume that mercury isn’t a problem, and anyone questioning the safety of vaccines is considered to be a hysterical wingnut. However, while mercury use has […]
Barbara Loe Fisher on the Importance of Balanced Cellular and Humoral Immune System Responses
Humans and infectious microbes have coexisted for as long as humans have walked the earth, and the human immune system has developed an efficient way of dealing with viral and bacterial infections. When infected with a microorganism, the body’s first line of defense is for the cellular or ‘innate’ part of the immune system to mount an inflammatory response. This response then signals the humoral or ‘learned’ part of the immune system to produce anti-inflammatory chemicals and…
