VaxXed Stories: Sophia in Texas
Mary and Micah recount the varying degrees of vaccine reactions in 3 of their 4 children. Their two eldest children, Claire and Judah, experienced a downturn in their immune health following their routine childhood vaccinations. But most concerning was their daughter Sophia’s reaction after her 12 month shots. After receiving multiple shots, Sophia was clearly unwell even before leaving the doctor’s office. Her demeanor completely changed within the days after, losing her appetite, experiencing gastrointestinal issues and spiking an uncontrollable fever. Soon after the fever came down, Sophia had a grand mal seizure. Sophia experienced subsequent seizures and also has developed pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorder associated with streptococcus. After experiencing the damage that vaccines cause, Mary and Micah chose not to vaccinate their fourth child, whose development and health is far superior to that of his vaccinated siblings.

VaxXed Stories: Cameron in Texas
Cameron was a normally developing 6 year old boy. HIs mother Lorraine brought Cameron and his two sibling to receive the flu shot. Shortly after Cameron developed neck pain, fever, stomach pains and lethargy. He began to have seizures and ended up in the hospital in a coma. Not expecting Cameron to live, his family was relieved when he began to recover. But he did not recover fully to his previous state of health. Cameron continued to have seizures, damaging him further to the point of losing speech.

VaxXed Stories: Isabella in Texas
Isabella and her twin were born a early. Isabella received antibiotics at birth because of low white blood cell count. Her sister did not receive this intervention, but both were vaccinated in the hospital. Within days Isabella developed reflux. Both girls received multiple vaccines at 19 months. Isabella reacted severely to these shots and began to regress, eventually receiving an autism diagnosis.

VaxXed Stories: Kelly in Texas
Kim lost her baby daughter Kelly in 1980 at 2 months old. Her death was ruled SIDS. Kim came to the realization years later, and after extensive research ,that the vaccination her daughter had received within the few weeks prior was very likely the cause of Kelley’s death.

VaxXed Stories: Emme in Texas
Terry, a veterinary opthamologist was aware of the dangers of vaccines for animals. Unfortunately she wasn’t aware that dangers were just as present with human vaccines. Her daughter Emme received her vaccines per the schedule. Emme was developing normally until she received multiple vaccines at 12 months which included the MMR. She regressed losing speech and developing abnormal behaviors. With eventual testing, they discovered Emme’s titers for rubella were astronomically high, which has been shown to be a common theme in other autistic individuals who have regressed after the MMR.

VaxXed Stories: Draven in Texas
Immediately after his 2 month vaccines Draven developed a severe allergy to his mother’s breastmilk, breaking out in hives. He continued to develop allergies to a myriad of foods and suffers asthma, rashes and congestion.

How to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour

Testimony by Phil Robertson from Duck Dynasty

1 Corinthians 15 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Hebrews 6 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3 And this will we do, if God permit.
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 and have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 if they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
8 but that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.

53 – Old testament Prophecy about Jesus

1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant,and as a root out of a dry ground:he hath no form nor comeliness;and when we shall see him,there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of men;a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief:and we hid as it were our faces from him;he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs,and carried our sorrows:yet we did esteem him stricken,smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions,he was bruised for our iniquities:the chastisement of our peace was upon him;and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;we have turned every one to his own way;and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,yet he opened not his mouth:he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter,and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb,so he openeth not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment:and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living:for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked,and with the rich in his death;because he had done no violence,neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him;he hath put him to grief:when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin,he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days,and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied:by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many;for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great,and he shall divide the spoil with the strong;because he hath poured out his soul unto death:and he was numbered with the transgressors;and he bare the sin of many,and made intercession for the transgressors.

Study – Do childhood vaccines cause thrombocytopenia?

An increasing body of evidence has been gathered since the mid-1960s to support a link between vaccinations, particularly the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The incidence rate is estimated to be between one in 25,000 to one in 40,000 doses of MMR (1,2); this is much less frequent than after natural infection with measles (common), rubella (one in 3000 cases) and varicella. The purpose of the present commentary is to review vaccine-associated thrombocytopenia (VATP).
Vaccine-preventable diseases are becoming rare in Canada, with an average of 10 reported cases of measles per year between 2002 and 2006; although there was a large outbreak in Quebec in 2007, with 95 confirmed cases (3). With widespread vaccination and the near disappearance of vaccine-preventable diseases in Canada, there is less societal tolerance for adverse events following immunization (AEFI). One of the challenges in assessing AEFIs is distinguishing events that are causally linked with vaccination from those that are only temporally associated. Cases of thrombocytopenia in the first month after vaccination often have a history of recent viral infection or coadministration of medications that may also lead to thrombocytopenia, making the actual cause of VATP difficult to identify.
Since 1992, the Immunization Monitoring Program, ACTive (IMPACT), conducted by the Canadian Paediatric Society, has performed active surveillance for children who are hospitalized with AEFIs, including VATP. Trained nurse monitors at each of the 12 IMPACT centres review all admissions for children admitted for VATP (children with a platelet count of less than 100×109/L and no obvious other cause, such as cancer chemotherapy) within one month of documented receipt of any vaccine. Jadavji et al (4) reported on the first nine years of surveillance (with 61 cases) for VATP in 2003. One of the limitations in the IMPACT data is that detecting a case requires the treating physician to document administration of a vaccine in the previous month (the nurse monitors do not interview the parents). A recent American study (1) found that treating physicians had asked only two of 13 children with VATP about recent vaccination.
The IMPACT data on VATP are similar to reports from other countries, including the United Kingdom, France and the United States (1,2,5,6). In Canada, 103 cases of VATP have been documented by IMPACT since 1992 (7). The median age was 13 months, and 61% of those affected were boys. Petechial rash and bruising were the typical presenting signs. Most (73%) cases were treated with intravenous immunoglobulin. Most children did quite well, with rapid recovery; only six of 95 children with follow-up data still had abnormal platelet counts after three months. However, two children had severe bleeding-related complications, one had a gastrointestinal bleed requiring intensive care and one had post-traumatic intracranial bleeding leading to death.
Most cases of VATP are associated with MMR or measles vaccine, including 72% of the cases reported to IMPACT (25 of these 74 children had received one or more additional vaccines, including 10 children who also received the diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus vaccine, and 10 children who had received the varicella vaccine). Of the children who had MMR associated with thrombocytopenia in the IMPACT study, nine (12%) had a previous recorded dose of the vaccine without known thrombocytopenia. When all of the VATP cases were considered, 31% of the VATP episodes occurred after the second or third exposure to a vaccine.

Study – Infant mortality rates regressed against number of vaccine doses routinely given: Is there a biochemical or synergistic toxicity?

Abstract

The infant mortality rate (IMR) is one of the most important indicators of the socio-economic well-being and public health conditions of a country. The US childhood immunization schedule specifies 26 vaccine doses for infants aged less than 1 year—the most in the world—yet 33 nations have lower IMRs. Using linear regression, the immunization schedules of these 34 nations were examined and a correlation coefficient of r = 0.70 (p < 0.0001) was found between IMRs and the number of vaccine doses routinely given to infants. Nations were also grouped into five different vaccine dose ranges: 12–14, 15–17, 18–20, 21–23, and 24–26. The mean IMRs of all nations within each group were then calculated. Linear regression analysis of unweighted mean IMRs showed a high statistically significant correlation between increasing number of vaccine doses and increasing infant mortality rates, with r = 0.992 (p = 0.0009). Using the Tukey-Kramer test, statistically significant differences in mean IMRs were found between nations giving 12–14 vaccine doses and those giving 21–23, and 24–26 doses. A closer inspection of correlations between vaccine doses, biochemical or synergistic toxicity, and IMRs is essential.

Are flu vaccines risking senior citizens’ lives? Some say Yes.

A buried JAMA study from almost a decade ago which showed that there was no improvement in mortality rates among senior citizens with a flu vaccine, even after greatly increased vaccination rates. The study “got little attention,” she says, “because the science came down on the wrong side.” Whereas the researchers had set out to prove that the push for massive flu vaccination would save the world, the researchers were “astonished” to find that the data did not support their presupposition at all. The data actually shows that deaths increased, not decreased, among seniors following vaccination.
Johns Hopkins scientist, Peter Doshi, Ph.D., issued a report in the prestigious British Medical Journal, according to NewsLI, asserting that the CDC policy of routinely recommending the flu vaccine is being based on “low quality studies that do not substantiate claims.” He says there is no evidence that the vaccine reduces deaths among senior citizens. Interestingly, Doshi cites an Australian study which found significant risks for children as well, stating that “one in every 110 children under the age of five had convulsions following vaccinations in 2009 for H1N1 influenza.”
During the drug trials for the Fluzone flu vaccine, 23 seniors out of 3,833 died after receiving the shot, according to the drug’s package insert, reported by Health Impact News. Another 226 experienced “serious adverse effects.” The manufacturer denies any connection between the deaths and the flu vaccine.

Study – Impact of Influenza Vaccination on Seasonal Mortality in the US Elderly Population

Lone Simonsen, PhD; Thomas A. Reichert, MD, PhD; Cecile Viboud, PhD;

Abstract

Background Observational studies report that influenza vaccination reduces winter mortality risk from any cause by 50% among the elderly. Influenza vaccination coverage among elderly persons (≥65 years) in the United States increased from between 15% and 20% before 1980 to 65% in 2001. Unexpectedly, estimates of influenza-related mortality in this age group also increased during this period. We tried to reconcile these conflicting findings by adjusting excess mortality estimates for aging and increased circulation of influenza A(H3N2) viruses.

Methods We used a cyclical regression model to generate seasonal estimates of national influenza-related mortality (excess mortality) among the elderly in both pneumonia and influenza and all-cause deaths for the 33 seasons from 1968 to 2001. We stratified the data by 5-year age group and separated seasons dominated by A(H3N2) viruses from other seasons.

Results For people aged 65 to 74 years, excess mortality rates in A(H3N2)-dominated seasons fell between 1968 and the early 1980s but remained approximately constant thereafter. For persons 85 years or older, the mortality rate remained flat throughout. Excess mortality in A(H1N1) and B seasons did not change. All-cause excess mortality for persons 65 years or older never exceeded 10% of all winter deaths.

Conclusions We attribute the decline in influenza-related mortality among people aged 65 to 74 years in the decade after the 1968 pandemic to the acquisition of immunity to the emerging A(H3N2) virus. We could not correlate increasing vaccination coverage after 1980 with declining mortality rates in any age group. Because fewer than 10% of all winter deaths were attributable to influenza in any season, we conclude that observational studies substantially overestimate vaccination benefit.

Study – Comparison of Blood and Brain Mercury Levels in Infant Monkeys Exposed to Methylmercury or Vaccines Containing Thimerosal

Environmental Health – Apr 2005

Thomas M. Burbacher, Danny D. Shen, Noelle Liberato,
Kimberly S. Grant, Elsa Cernichiari, and Thomas Clarkson

Abstract
Thimerosal is a preservative that has been used in manufacturing vaccines since the 1930s. Reports have indicated that infants can receive ethylmercury (in the form of thimerosal) at or above the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines for methylmercury (MeHg) exposure, depending on the exact vaccinations, schedule, and size of the infant. This study compared the systemic disposition and brain distribution of total and inorganic mercury in infant monkeys following thimerosal exposure with infants exposed to MeHg. Monkeys were exposed to MeHg (via oral gavage) or vaccines containing thimerosal (via i.m. injection) at birth and 1, 2, and 3 weeks of age. Total blood mercury (Hg) levels were determined 2, 4 and 7 days after each exposure. Total and inorganic brain Hg levels were assessed 2, 4, 7 or 28 days after the last exposure. The initial and terminal half-life of Hg in blood following thimerosal exposure was 2.1 and 8.6 days, which are significantly shorter than the elimination half-life of Hg following MeHg exposure at 21.5 days. Brain concentrations of total Hg were significantly lower by ~3-fold for the thimerosal-exposed infants when compared to the MeHg infants, while the average brain-to-blood concentration ratio was slightly higher for the thimerosal-exposed infants (3.5±1.0 vs. 2.5±0.6). A higher percentage of the total Hg in the brain was in the form of inorganic mercury for the thimerosal-exposed infants (34% vs 7%). The current study indicates that MeHg is not a suitable reference for risk assessment from exposure to thimerosal derived Hg. Knowledge of the toxicokinetics and developmental toxicity of thimerosal is needed to afford a meaningful assessment of the developmental effects of thimerosal-containing vaccines.

Study – Evolution of multiple sclerosis in France since the beginning of hepatitis B vaccination

National Institutes of Health – 14 Nov 2014

Dominique Le Houézeccorresponding author
REVAHB (“Réseau Vaccin Hépatite B” in French), 32 rue du Clos Herbert, 14000 Caen, France

Abstract
Since the implementation of the mass vaccination campaign against hepatitis B in France, the appearance of multiple sclerosis, sometimes occurring in the aftermath of vaccinations, led to the publication of epidemiological international studies. This was also justified by the sharp increase in the annual incidence of multiple sclerosis reported to the French health insurance in the mid-1990s. Almost 20 years later, a retrospective reflection can be sketched from these official data and also from the national pharmacovigilance agency. Statistical data from these latter sources seem to show a significant correlation between the number of hepatitis B vaccinations performed and the declaration to the pharmacovigilance of multiple sclerosis occurring between 1 and 2 years later. The application of the Hill’s criteria to these data indicates that the correlation between hepatitis B vaccine and multiple sclerosis may be causal.

Temporal Association of Certain Neuropsychiatric Disorders Following Vaccination of Children and Adolescents: A Pilot Case–Control Study

Background: Although the association of the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine with autism spectrum disorder has been convincingly disproven, the onset of certain brain-related autoimmune and inflammatory disorders has been found to be temporally associated with the antecedent administration of various vaccines. This study examines whether antecedent vaccinations are associated with increased incidence of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), anorexia nervosa (AN), anxiety disorder, chronic tic disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder in a national sample of privately insured children.

Methods: Using claims data, we compared the prior year’s occurrence of vaccinations in children and adolescents aged 6–15 years with the above neuropsychiatric disorders that were newly diagnosed between January 2002 and December 2007, as well as two control conditions, broken bones and open wounds. Subjects were matched with controls according to age, gender, geographical area, and seasonality. Conditional logistic regression models were used to determine the association of prior vaccinations with each condition.

Results: Subjects with newly diagnosed AN were more likely than controls to have had any vaccination in the previous 3 months [hazard ratio (HR) 1.80, 95% confidence interval 1.21–2.68]. Influenza vaccinations during the prior 3, 6, and 12 months were also associated with incident diagnoses of AN, OCD, and an anxiety disorder. Several other associations were also significant with HRs greater than 1.40 (hepatitis A with OCD and AN; hepatitis B with AN; and meningitis with AN and chronic tic disorder).

Conclusion: This pilot epidemiologic analysis implies that the onset of some neuropsychiatric disorders may be temporally related to prior vaccinations in a subset of individuals. These findings warrant further investigation, but do not prove a causal role of antecedent infections or vaccinations in the pathoetiology of these conditions. Given the modest magnitude of these findings in contrast to the clear public health benefits of the timely administration of vaccines in preventing mortality and morbidity in childhood infectious diseases, we encourage families to maintain vaccination schedules according to CDC guidelines.

Flu shot effectiveness for 2015-16 disappointing, data shows

Flu shot effectiveness for 2015-16 disappointing, data shows
Flu shot protects better than last year, but not good enough, experts say
It’s the time of year when experts crunch the numbers to see how well the flu shot worked. The result? Better than last year, but still not good enough.
“Overall, just shy of 45 to 50 per cent,” said Dr. Danuta Skowronski of the BC Centre for Disease Control, who presented the data to the Global Influenza Vaccine Effectiveness meeting at the World Health Organization last week.
“That’s lower than we would like to see, but it’s an improvement over the previous year, because it couldn’t be worse, frankly”
In 2014-15, the flu shot offered essentially zero protection against the circulating influenza virus of that season. Back then, the prevailing strain was H3N2.

A Shot Never Worth Taking: The Flu Vaccine ~ by Kelly Brogan, MD
•It’s not indicated: I’m sure you don’t know a single person who has died of the flu, and if you think you do, I can almost guarantee you that the diagnosis was not confirmed in a way that ruled out the 150-200 infectious pathogens that cause flu-like syndromes, none of which would be “covered” by the vaccine. Despite the astronomical figures the CDC flashes before us of “flu deaths”, there were 18 (yes, 1-8) confirmed in 2001, for example. Access to these figures is suspiciously concealed, but in the end, forget the stats, and use some common sense to see the fear mongering and sales marketing for what it is.
•It doesn’t work: The Cochrane Database – an objective, gold-standard assessment of available evidence has plainly stated, in TWO STUDIES, that there is no data to support efficacy in children under two, and in adults. Even the former Chief Vaccine Officer at the FDA states: “there is no evidence that any influenza vaccine thus far developed is effective in preventing or mitigating any attack of influenza.” Liking the idea of being protected from the flu does not equate to being protected from the flu. That’s essentially what your vaccine-promoting doctor (or pharmacist) is engaging in – promoting an idea.

Study 2010: Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy adults.
Main results:
The corresponding figures for poor vaccine matching were 2% and 1% (RD 1, 95% CI 0% to 3%). These differences were not likely to be due to chance. Vaccination had a modest effect on time off work and had no effect on hospital admissions or complication rates. Inactivated vaccines caused local harms and an estimated 1.6 additional cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome per million vaccinations. The harms evidence base is limited.

Study 2014: Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy adults.
Main results:
On this basis, vaccination shows very limited effects: NNV 92 (95% CI 63 to 201) against ILI in pregnant women and NNV 27 (95% CI 18 to 185) against laboratory-confirmed influenza in newborns from vaccinated women.Live aerosol vaccines have an overall effectiveness corresponding to a NNV 46 (95% CI 29 to 115).The performance of one-dose or two-dose whole virion pandemic vaccines was higher, showing a NNV of 16 (95% CI 14 to 20) against ILI and a NNV of 35 (95% CI 33 to 47) against influenza, while a limited impact on hospitalisation was found (NNV 94, 95% CI 70 to 1022).Vaccination had a modest effect on time off work and had no effect on hospital admissions or complication rates. Inactivated vaccines caused local harms. No evidence of association with serious adverse events was found, but the harms evidence base was limited.The overall risk of bias in the included trials is unclear because it was not possible to assess the real impact of bias.

A Shot Never Worth Taking: The Flu Vaccine ~ by Kelly Brogan, MD

http://www.vaccinationcouncil.org/2013/11/27/a-shot-never-worth-taking-the-flu-vaccine-by-kelly-brogan-md/

The information is OUT THERE, brilliant scientists, physicians, and researchers without financial ties and agendas have weighed in and presented their concerns about vaccine safety and efficacy, however, the average citizen resists and clings to a hyper-simplified, seemingly “safe” stance.
“Well, I’m not against vaccines, I mean, they’ve done a lot. I’m sure there are some risks, but they’re extremely rare.”
I understand, now, that, my collection of PubMed articles substantiating concerns about inefficacy, neurological, autoimmune, and fatal risks of these poorly conceived and anachronistically relevant immune modulators is not meaningful to someone who is not interested.
Instead of debating the science, what it may take to change to bring awareness to this egregious misuse of medical authority is, one of two, non-scientific, anecdotal exposures:
1.They see it doesn’t work, and may even cause illness
I have several pediatricians as patients. Unprovoked, all of these women have confessed to me that they have observed increased virulence in their vaccinated populations. It is this clinical experience that has given them pause about the heavy-handed mandate coming down from the CDC.
“Oh!” I say, “Have you read the studies that suggest increased risk of infection in the vaccinated population? There’s THAT ONE where they actually used a saline placebo in 115 children and found that those vaccinated had a 4.4 times increased rate of non-flu infection? Or how about that CANADIAN ONE where they looked at 4 observational studies and found that 2008-2009 H1N1 vaccination was associated with a1.4 to 2.5 increased risk of actually contracting said virus?”
Only after they have a personal template within which to fit the science affirming their observations, do they have room to hear it. But what of all of the children they have brought this ineffective and dangerous intervention to?
2.They know someone harmed
It is basic human psychology that what is out over there is irrelevant at best, and threatening at worst. What is near and familiar is what is true. Few of us seek to bridge gaps between what we are surrounded by and what may be out there to learn. The difficulty of appreciating the scale of harm brought to the population by vaccination practice is related to the insidious nature of immune and neurologic insult.
The CDC can report, as they do, that brain inflammation and death are known side effects of every vaccine, but most do not appreciate what brain inflammation looks like. That this can look like ADHD, autism, learning delay, and that autoimmune disorders can take years to manifest. Tracing the thread back to the vaccine exposure can only be done with studies that assess vaccinated versus unvaccinated populations. These have not been done.
