Flu Vaccines Are dangerous and Don’t Work
Johns Hopkins Scientist Reveals
Shocking Report on Flu Vaccines
by SYLVIA BOOTH HUBBARD
A
Johns Hopkins scientist has issued a blistering report on influenza vaccines in
the British Medical Journal (BMJ). Peter Doshi, Ph.D., charges that although the
vaccines are being pushed on the public in unprecedented numbers, they are less
effective and cause more side effects than alleged by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC). Further, says Doshi, the studies that underlie
the CDC’s policy of encouraging most people to get a yearly flu shot are often
low quality studies that do not substantiate the official claims.
Promoting
influenza vaccines is one of the most visible and aggressive public health
policies in the United States, says Doshi of the Johns Hopkins School of
Medicine. Drug companies and public officials press for widespread vaccination
each fall, offering vaccinations in drugstores and supermarkets. The results
have been phenomenal. Only 20 years ago, 32 million doses of influenza vaccine
were available in the United States on an annual basis. Today, the total has
skyrocketed to 135 million doses.
“The
vaccine may be less beneficial and less safe than has been claimed, and the
threat of influenza seems to be overstated,” Doshi says. Mandatory vaccination
polices have been enacted, often in healthcare facilities, forcing some people
to take the vaccine under threat of losing their jobs.
The
main assertion of the CDC that fuels the push for flu vaccines each year is
that influenza comes with a risk of serious complications which can cause
death, especially in senior citizens and those suffering from chronic
illnesses. That’s not the case, said Doshi.
When read carefully, the CDC acknowledges that studies finding any perceived reduction in death rates may be due to the “healthy-user effect” — the tendency for healthier people to be vaccinated more than less-healthy people. The only randomized trial of influenza vaccine in older people found no decrease in deaths. “This means that influenza vaccines are approved for use in older people despite any clinical trials demonstrating a reduction in serious outcomes,” says Doshi.
Even
when the vaccine is closely matched to the type of influenza that’s prevalent,
which doesn’t happen every year, randomized, controlled trials of healthy
adults found that vaccinating between 33 and 100 people resulted in one less
case of influenza. In addition, says Doshi, no evidence exists to show that
this reduction in the risk of influenza for a specific population — here in the
United States, among healthy adults, for example — extrapolates into any
reduced risk of serious complications from influenza, such as hospitalizations
or deaths, among seniors.
“For
most people, and possibly most doctors, officials need only claim that vaccines
save lives, and it is assumed there must be solid research behind it,” says
Doshi. Unfortunately, that’s not the case, he says.
Although the
CDC implies that flu vaccines are safe and there’s no need to weigh
benefits against risk, Doshi disagrees. He points to an Australian study that
found one in every 110 children under the age of five had convulsions following
vaccinations in 2009 for H1N1 influenza. Additional investigations found that
the H1N1 vaccine was also associated with a spike in cases of narcolepsy among
adolescents.
Doshi’s
concerns echo those of Dr. Russell Blaylock, a neurosurgeon and author of “The
Blaylock Wellness Report” who has deep concerns over the safety and
efficacy of the flu vaccine.
Not
only is the vaccine not safe, Dr. Blaylock tells Newsmax Health, it doesn’t
even work. “The vaccine is completely worthless, and the government knows it,”
he says. “There are three reasons the government tells the elderly why they
should get flu shots: secondary pneumonia, hospitalization, and death. Yet a
study by the Cochrane group studied hundreds of thousands of people and found
it offered zero protection for those three things in the general community. It
offered people in nursing homes some immunity against the flu — at best
one-third — but that was only if they picked the right vaccine.”
A
study released in February found that the flu shot was only 9 percent effective
in protecting seniors against the 2012-2013 season’s most virulent influenza
bug.
What’s
even worse is that small children who are given the flu vaccine get no
protection from the disease. “The government also says that every baby over the
age of six months should have a vaccine, and they know it contains a dose of
mercury that is toxic to the brain,” says Dr. Blaylock. “They also know the
studies have shown that the flu vaccine has zero — zero — effectiveness in
children under five.”
For
most people, says Dr. Blaylock, flu vaccines don’t prevent the flu but actually
increase the odds of getting it. The mercury contained in vaccines is such a
strong immune depressant that a flu shot suppresses immunity for several weeks.
“This makes people highly susceptible to catching the flu,” he says. “They may
even think the vaccine gave them the flu, but that’s not true — it depressed
their immune system and then they caught the flu.”
Mercury
overstimulates the brain for several years, says Dr. Blaylock, and that
activation is the cause of Alzheimer’s and other degenerative diseases. One
study found that those who get the flu vaccine for three to five years increase
their risk of Alzheimer’s disease 10-fold.
Doshi
asserts that influenza is a case of “disease mongering” in an effort to expand
markets. He points to the fact that deaths from flu declined sharply during the
middle of the 20th century, long before the huge vaccine campaigns that kicked
off the 21st century.
Why
do drug companies push the flu vaccine? “It’s all about money,” says Dr.
Blaylock. “Vaccines are a pharmaceutical company’s dream. They have a product
that both the government and the media will help them sell, and since vaccines
are protected, they can’t be sued if anyone has a complication.”
Doshi’s
article “is a breath of fresh air,” says Dr. Blaylock. “This article exposes in
well-defined and articulate terms what has been known for a long time — the flu
vaccine promotion is a fraud.
“Here’s
the bottom line,” says Dr. Blaylock. “The vast number of people who get the flu
vaccine aren’t going to get any benefit, but they get all of the risks and
complications.”
5 Baffling Vaccination Facts
by Lisa K. Jillani
Fact #1: Approximately 1/3 of Doctors Refuse Vaccinations, yet . . .
Exposure to illness is an occupational hazard for the medical community. Doctors are among the highest risk population groups and most hospitals and practices make it mandatory for physicians to be vaccinated. Researcher and author Neil Z. Miller reports that approximately 66% of pediatricians and obstetricians refused the MMR shot in one study.[1] An equal percentage of doctors refused the Hepatitis B shot, mostly citing safety concerns because of rumors of animal DNA contamination in the shots.[2]
The American Medical Association’s (AMA) Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine cite a 1994 study where approximately 1/3 of doctors were working without mandatory flu vaccines.[3] Yet the doctors blindly follow national recommendations to vaccinate every child they can round up (sometimes with as many as five vaccines in one visit).
Fact #2: Vaccine Failures are Well Documented, yet . . .
The AMA reported that “measles is increasingly becoming a disease of adults,” admitting that the demographics of this typically childhood disease are shifting to adults as vaccines wear off too early.[4] Almost all childhood illnesses are deemed much more dangerous in adults. Mumps and rubella are also being reported to be shifting toward older children and adults. During epidemics, measles has been known to attack nearly 100% vaccinated populations.[5] Similar statistics have been seen during mumps outbreaks. Rubella, which is very innocuous in childhood, is now threatening women of child-bearing age (the very group the shot was supposed to protect to prevent birth defects).[6] After nearly 55 years of medical hoopla, the Centers for Disease Control reports that pertussis is at the highest levels since 1967. [7] Constant (and profitable) boosters are now the government’s only solution for shortsightedly disrupting the natural course of childhood illnesses. Yet, the policymakers are never apologetic.
Fact #3: Vaccine Efficacy is Often Misreported, yet . . .
The medical establishment has always maintained that there is no ethical way to study vaccine efficacy in a random, double-blind environment because of ethical implications. Efficacy is thus measured by blood antibody counts for a particular vaccine. As fact #2 shows with regard to measles in vaccinated populations, antibody titers are extremely unreliable predictors of whether a vaccinated child will contract a disease. Based on the antibody titer logic, the whole-cell pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine, the only product available in the U.S. until recently, was deemed 85 to 90% effective by the U.S. medical community.[8] When the same product was recently tested in Sweden and Italy during a U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) funded study, the vaccine proved only 48 and 36% effective respectively.[9] Searching for a smokescreen, the CDC immediately hailed the newer acellular vaccine as being a safer, more effective product (they had initially blasted this Japanese product as being ineffective, but constant bad press about the safety of whole-cell vaccines changed their minds — and statistics).
The government’s excuse for the miserable efficacy rates was that the kids in the study only got three shots, while American kids get additional boosters at 18 months and 4-6 years. Let’s see, pertussis is most dangerous for children under one, who get 3 shots (at 2, 4, and 6 months). Maybe the pertussis bacterium avoids infants fearing those upcoming boosters! As if that wasn’t absurd enough, the same official explained that the low efficacy of the vaccine can partially be attributed to the fact that both Sweden and Italy were in the middle of epidemics during the studies. Huh? You mean the product is 85-90% effective unless it comes in contact with the disease, at which point it fails 64% of the time? Yet, the medical community continues to give these products credit for eliminating infectious diseases.
Fact #4: Vaccines Kill and Maim Regularly, yet…
The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP), established in 1986, has paid out over $1 billion in injury awards to date. Thousands of cases are pending, stuck in the federal bureaucracy.[10] This despite the fact that HHS Secretary Donna Shalala recently narrowed the definition of vaccine injury so critically that only immediate and severe reactions can now qualify.[11] Seizure disorders, brain damage, ataxia, aseptic meningitis, paralysis, learning difficulties, and death, that typically occur many days or weeks following these vaccines are now all excluded. And here’s the cherry on top: since doctors have little incentive to report themselves to a passive reporting system like the government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), former FDA Director David Kessler once admitted that only 10% of vaccine injury cases are ever reported.[12] So the injuries can even conservatively amount to tens of thousands of children every year, while doctors continue to diagnose and treat mysterious new illnesses and maintain the “one in a million” adverse reaction myth taught in med schools (Hint: no drug is that safe).
Actually, the physicians’ creed, instead of, “First, do no harm,” might as well be, “First, deny causal relationship.” Not that a causal relationship matters either. The prestigious and supposedly independent Institute of Medicine (IOM) reported after a thorough review in 1991 that a causal relationship did exist between acute encephalopathy (brain inflammation) and the DPT shot.[13] They also found a causal relationship between the MMR shot and chronic arthritis in women. Yet, they did the obvious when it comes to pampering pharmaceutical giants — they recommended continuing the suspect products and suggested “further study” (translation: maintain profitable and deceptive status quo).
Fact #5: Vaccines are Not Tested for Long-Term Safety, yet…
After years of controversy the CDC finally admitted in 1996 that the polio vaccine used on millions in the 1950s may have contained the SV-40 monkey retrovirus (which causes cancer in laboratory animals). [14] Of course, they went on to deny that there is any, you guessed it, “causal relationship” between contaminated vaccines and the dramatic increases in many diseases like cancer, chronic fatigue, learning disorders, epilepsy, juvenile diabetes, etc.
The sad fact for the consumer is that vaccines will never be reliably implicated in diseases occurring years or even decades after a shot. Drug companies hardly have the incentive to provide researchers with multi-million dollar grants and risk being held responsible for altering the global gene pool.
Vaccine inserts always warn that the mutagenic and carcinogenic potential of the products has not been tested. Forced into our children’s bloodstreams without the benefit of the natural defense our organs mount, horse, cow, chicken, monkey, rabbit or even worse, lab-engineered, DNA can have consequences that no scientist can predict with our limited knowledge of the human immune system. (Add to this diseased or lab-created tissue all the adjuvants and stabilizers like formaldehyde, antibiotics, aluminum salts and thimerosal — a mercury derivative — and you have a truly toxic witch’s brew).
The new breed of chronic illnesses are too profitable for the medical community to sweat over their mysterious causes. While more virulent and drug-resistant forms of infectious diseases manifest themselves, researchers are getting a cold shoulder from the government for discovering potential problems with old and new vaccines.[15] Emerging research into vaccine links to diabetes, arthritis, allergies, asthma, and many crippling autoimmune disorders seems to indicate that the chronic effects of these products can linger undetected for years (generations?) only to explode into our systems later. Chronic diseases are increasing at a staggering rate in the West.
Many like Type 1 diabetes, asthma and certain cancers have increased three- to five-fold over the last 50 years. The reasons remain obscure and unresearched as the scientists “speculate” on the causes. We are in a short-sighted world which, in pursuit of a quick buck, shows little concern for contaminating our species with foreign proteins which can permanently alter or even incapacitate our future generations. Yet, we keep bowing to a system whose chief motive is simply profit. We are unsuspectingly handing people our hard earned money so they can sell us a product that has been suspect since its inception — ineffective, unsafe, and potentially a threat to the survival of our species.
