Vaccine Risk

This information I am sharing with the readers of the Beacon, is from a newsletter - Natural Way to Health written by Dr. David Brownstein, a functional physician who practices in Michigan. He writes that there are five big lies being spread by the FDA, the pharmaceutical companies and our government.

1. Vaccines do cause autism in children. A study showed that in the last 20 years there have been 240 percent increases among Africa American children who have received the MMR vaccine before the age of 36 months. There has been a 69 percent increase in the risk of all children who have received the vaccine before the age of 36 months. Dr. William Thompson, a whistleblower at the CDC came forward and stated that he and his colleagues knowingly falsified data from the 2004 study. Under pressure he has been silenced. Demand that he be made to testify under oath at a new hearing.

2. Herd immunity is the focal point of the argument that 100% of us need to be immunized. This argument is false because if the vaccinations provided lifelong protection why would they care if some of us were not vaccinated. The vaccines do not provided lifetime immunity. Most of the vaccines only provided immunity for 10 years; whereas if a child comes down with measles or chickenpox they have lifetime immunity. California has recently passed a law that a child cannot attend public unless all 46 of the doses are up to date. Childhood disease is rarely severe in children; whereas in adults they are.

3. You Are Putting Other Children at Risk. This argument is invalid for many reasons. If the shots are effective, why should a vaccinating parent care what a non-vaccinating parent does? During a viral infection the virus is shed in the bodily fluids of infected people and can be transmitted to others. What these pro-vaccination officials do not mention is that after a live virus vaccination recommended by the CDC, the newly vaccinated person can shed for days, even months. During shedding, the virus can be found in saliva, nasal and throat secretions.

4. Vaccines are safe and effective. American children are the most heavily vaccinated children in the world, but they are not the healthiest. Our children have the highest newborn mortality rate and more chronic illnesses than children in other developed nations. It is true vaccinated children are not coming down with measles, chicken pox, etc. but they are not healthier.

5. Everyone should get a flu shot. The flu vaccine fails to protect the majority of older individual after getting the vaccine. A big problem with the flu shot is that it contains mercury and aluminum. My thought, not the doctor’s. If childhood vaccines might cause learning disabilities (which have certainly increased over the years since so many shots have been introduced) could there be a connection for the increase in senior dementia?

6. Newborns need hepatitis B vaccine. Giving a healthy or even sick newborn baby whose mother does not have hepatitis B an injection for this vaccine just hours after birth should be malpractice. The most common way this disease is transmitted is through sexual intercourse. If your newborn is not engaging in sex and intravenous drug use, Dr. Brownstein suggests delaying this vaccine. Many parents are against putting toxic levels of mercury, aluminum and formaldehyde into their young children. How can these dangerous substances make our children healthier? More children have asthma, learning disabilities, even cancer than ever before. Call you senators and congressmen and request that they let Dr. Thompson testify under oath. And most of all do not let them make it mandatory that everyone take vaccines.
