We want safer vaccines

Parents, politicians and organizations are now questioning vaccination safety to an extent we've never seen before. "We're not anti-vaccine, we just want safer vaccines," they say. They are discussing "splitting up" the vaccine schedule so children get less shots on one visit and making vaccines "green" which I guess means taking the mercury out of them.

There is nothing "green" (natural) about vaccination.

The goal of vaccination is to do what the immune system is designed to prevent. Vaccination bypasses the skin and mucous membranes by injecting bacteria, viri and toxic chemicals deep inside the body where these substances have access to the blood and internal organs. And - most importantly - where the body cannot develop an acute immune response to detoxify and cleanse.

If there is no fever or no rash, that is bad. Your body needs to expel toxins and vaccination prevents that. You are never as healthy when there are foreign proteins, toxins and bizarre chemicals in your body. The result is neurological and immune diseases, which were rare or non-existent years ago - autism, asthma, allergies, ADD, ADHD, arthritis, autoimmune diseases - and we're just at the A's. The list goes on and on - brain tumors, cancer, diabetes, lupus, hearing problems, otitis media, visual problems, tics, nervous disorders. Do you know any normal kids - no chronic illness, no dyslexia, no allergies, no learning disorders, no emotional dysfunction? They are getting rarer and rarer.

Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible. Even if all are miserable, all will believe themselves happy, because the government will tell them that they are so. - Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science on Society, 1953, p.50

As Empricial healers, chiropractors rebel against this painful, unnatural, bizarre 18th century medical rite. Come to think of it, vaccination is the only medical procedure from the18th century that we still practice. One day it will be considered as barbaric as bloodletting¬ - probably worse.

Safer vaccines? There is no safe vaccine. When it comes to vaccines just say "no thank you."

Forcefully Injecting Children

Something is going very wrong in the United States; we are losing health freedoms at an alarming rate.

Last month the State of Maryland demanded that parents show documentation proving that their children had received a chickenpox and/or hepatitis B shot. Failure to show proof of this vaccination, along with failure to have your child vaccinated, resulted in potential imprisonment and fines up to $50 a day until their child had been injected.

Barbara Loe Fisher, an activist and noted speaker on informed consent issues surrounding vaccinations, showed up at a Maryland courthouse on November 17 to investigate what was taking place. What she encountered was a long line of confused, angry or simply uneducated parents and their children. They were waiting to enter the courthouse to face the judge who had ordered them to show proof of their child’s vaccination. Patrolling the scene was a SWAT team and police dogs.

As Barbara spoke to parents emerging from the courthouse she discovered something horrible. Upon entering the courthouse, parents were not asked questions about their child’s medical history, or if their children had experienced problems from a previous vaccination. Parents were not being informed of potentially life-threatening vaccination side-effects, nor were they given information on religious and medical exemptions to vaccinations, as allowed in Maryland. INSTEAD, PARENTS STOOD BY HELPLESSLY AS VACCINE INJECTIONS WERE FORCED UPON THEIR CHILDREN.

Judge C. Philip Nichols, a Maryland government official enforcing the vaccination mandate, was at the courthouse that day. In an interview about the children waiting in line to be vaccinated he was quoted as saying, “It’s cute. It looks like their parents are dragging them to church.”

What Judge Nichols fails to realize is that unlike a vaccination, an hour of praying in church never results in horrific brain damage or death.

It’s alarmingly evident that the health freedoms of our country are being attacked. No one should ever have the right to inject a child with a potentially harmful toxic substance without the consent of the parent(s). It’s evident that multitudes more of us need to speak up for our rights. We need to educate elected officials on the proven dangers associated with vaccinations. We need to preserve our lawful right to protect our children and say no to dangerous injections. Thousands of parents with children who now suffer with health disabilities and autism—resulting from vaccinations—are struggling to be heard. It’s time to join the fight before it’s too late.

Vaccines and Autism

Scientists believe they have found a direct link between childhood vaccinations and autism, asthma and ADHD!

These shocking results come from a ground-breaking study released in June 2007 by Generation Rescue. The research, privately funded without ties to the pharmaceutical industry or the medical community, included an extensive interview of 17,674 vaccinated and unvaccinated children.

When compared to non-vaccinated boys in the same age group, researchers found the following statistics:

- Vaccinated boys age 4-17 are 155 percent more likely to have neurological disorders, are 224 percent more likely to have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and 61 percent more likely to have autism.

- Older boys, in the age range of 11 to 17, who were vaccinated were found to be even more susceptible to autism. They are 158 percent more likely to have a neurological disorder, 317 percent more likely to have ADHD, and 112 percent more likely to have autism.

- Vaccinated boys were 224 percent more likely to develop ADHD.

- Vaccinated boys and girls were 120 percent more likely to develop asthma.


Younger boys that have been vaccinated show less symptoms of autism, however researchers believe that these lower numbers will rise over time as professionals are more able to accurately diagnose the early symptoms of autism in younger children.

Scientists who conducted the study now believe that the mercury found in routine childhood immunizations plays a major role in the ten-fold increase in autism cases over the past two decades.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in every 150 children will develop autism.

Snooty and condescending

We have been doing an incredible amount of health fairs lately, and we usually get placed fairly close to the flu shot people. I usually don't complain because that is a good high-traffic location with plently of movement and we always do well right by them. What irked me this morning, however, is the snooty and condescending way that the girls working the booth answered when someone was concerned about getting the flu due to the shot itself.

Maybe one of the problems with healthcare in this country is that we assume that most people are a bunch of idiots and can't be trusted to make their own healthcare choices.

Let's make them feel stupid if they ask too many questions.


Three important reasons to avoid the flu shot:

1 The flu shot contains formaldehyde, gelatin and traces of chicken cells.
2 The flu shot contains viral contaminants that have been linked to cancer.
3 You can get the flu shot – and all the risks that go with it – and still get the flu!

There's more about the flu shot in our previous newsletter-"Autumn and Flu Shots"

Autism, Linked to vaccines?


For several years lawmakers have heard a growing outcry from parents and advocacy groups who believe autism is directly related to childhood vaccinations. This year, lawmakers were finally ready to address the issue on Capitol Hill. The bill—the Vaccine Safety and Public Assurance Act of 2006—was introduced during the summer by Rep. Dave Weldon of Florida. Weldon’s bill proposes that a new authority regarding vaccine safety be established to replace the voice of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) due to the CDC’s ties to pharmaceutical manufacturers who produce the vaccines. The legislation would create a brand new agency to oversee vaccine safety issues and research.

In the midst of the controversy, the CDC claims that recent studies indicate no link between childhood vaccinations and developmental disorders, such as autism. What the CDC failed to report is just how little research they had actually done on the subject.

Even more disturbing is that the CDC does not recognize the harm in using Thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative used in all childhood vaccines up until the year 2004. As the public outcry for the ban on thimerosal intensified, the federal government banned the use of mercury in vaccines, but only as a precautionary measure. Three years later an independent study concluded that a link DOES exist between thimerosal and autism. But the Institutes of Medicine, contacted by the CDC to study the possible link, conducted their own study that there was no connection. This study is still being used today as the official position on the issue. It also explains why the government still allows the use of Thimerosal in the Flu shot.

Meanwhile, parents of the over 140,000 autistic kids in the U.S. are struggling to understand why the cases of autism have skyrocketed by 500 percent over the last decade. Experts now estimate that one in every 166 children in the U.S. has been diagnosed with autism.

Until our government can established a non-biased research group to take a closer look at medicine and it’s affects on the human body, we need to do all we can to keep ourselves healthy. Start by making chiropractic adjustments part of your regular lifestyle routine.
