Why the Risks of Common Diseases Outweigh the Side Effects of Vaccines
Many have long debated the risks and benefits associated with vaccines, particularly in relation to the side effects they may cause. In this article, we explore the reasons why, after careful consideration, one might conclude that the side effects of vaccines are not as concerning as the potential risks of common childhood diseases. We will discuss the nature of these diseases, their effects, and the potential side effects of vaccines.
The Minimal Nature of Vaccine Side Effects
It is important to note that the side effects from vaccines are often minimal and the likelihood of experiencing a severe reaction is extremely low. As a result, many individuals have been vaccinated with absolute confidence, without experiencing any notable side effects or reactions. Not only does this provide peace of mind, but it also allows individuals to safely engage in public life and reduces the overall risk of infection. The potential for very mild symptoms far outweighs the most severe side effects associated with vaccines.
Personal Experience and Awareness of Vaccine-Related Injuries
My experience with common childhood diseases has given me a unique perspective on the issue. Growing up in the 1940s and 1950s, I witnessed these diseases firsthand, and the majority of those who contracted them recovered at home without any serious issues. It’s important to recognize that the fear surrounding these diseases has only increased in recent decades, leading to the widespread adoption of vaccines. However, the potential for severe side effects from vaccines has also grown more widely known, especially through increased awareness and reporting systems.
The Known Ingredients and Their Impact
The ingredients used in vaccines are often scrutinized for their safety. For example, aluminum and mercury, still present in flu shots, are known neurotoxins. Polysorbate-80 can carry substances across the blood-brain barrier, similar to how it’s used in chemotherapy for brain cancers. Studies by Prof. Christopher Exley have shown that aluminum remains in the brain, which raises significant concerns about its long-term effects. Formaldehyde, which many first encountered in high school biology class as a preservative, is also a known toxin. Studies have also associated human and animal DNA fragments with autoimmune diseases, allergies, impaired immune responses, and other health issues.
Decrease in Death Rates from Common Diseases
Death rates from common diseases dropped significantly by the 1940s, well before vaccines were widely available. Diseases such as polio, measles, and chickenpox saw decreases in mortality, even without the use of vaccines. Some diseases mutated into milder forms, and it became less common to experience severe complications. Vitamin A and high-dose intravenous vitamin C are known to be protective against complications from measles. Unfortunately, misinformation and neglect of these natural remedies in modern healthcare practices have led to the continued reliance on vaccines.
The Evolution of Vaccine Policies
The original intention of vaccines was noble, but the practices have become increasingly questionable, often driven by profit rather than public health. Major pharmaceutical companies have a history of fraud and unethical practices, warnings about the side effects of their products. For instance, internal memos revealed that Merck knew of issues with Vioxx before its market release, leading to tens of thousands of deaths. Similarly, drug companies have been accused of downplaying the addictive properties of painkillers, causing the opioid epidemic.
Alternative Approaches and Public Discussion
While completely stopping vaccination may not be the best option in every situation, it is crucial to be well-informed about the risks. Vaccines are often likened to commodities, and it isn’t ethical to make enormous profits from products that can harm individuals, especially through deception. Many parents are now inclined to avoid vaccines due to the risks they pose, and while some may choose to vaccinate due to herd immunity, it is essential to have a balanced discussion about the alternatives and natural remedies available.
In conclusion, while vaccines serve a vital role in preventing serious diseases, the potential for side effects should not be ignored. It is crucial to continue raising awareness about the known ingredients and their effects, as well as exploring alternative ways to boost the immune system naturally. By staying informed and making educated decisions, individuals can protect themselves and their families while minimizing unnecessary risks.
