“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, […] laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” – Thomas Jefferson – Declaration of Independence – Signed by Congress 1776
For those who have been following my writings over the years know where I stand on many issues. Consent in action and in life is a must when interacting with anyone we might meet on a daily basis. A good rule to remember is no victim no crime. A crime is not what a tyrant puts down on a piece of paper. Rights that are inherently in everyone must be protected or no one has rights. Consent should be mandatory with any medical procedure (your body your choice, right?), with an emphasis on being informed with truthful information before making that decision. How do we determine what is true though? If given the whole truth an individual will be able to provide actual informed consent. Mandatory vaccinations spit in the face of freedom and liberty, stands directly against everything I keep getting told this country stands for, and is the opposite of what we supposedly celebrate every 4th of July for.

Vaccinations are a very hot political topic. Outbreaks happening at what almost seems like a weekly or daily occurrence with the media and government blaming these outbreaks on anti-vaxxers; those who oppose the use of vaccines and believe that there is a connection with them to injuries and death. When you hear the word outbreak what first comes to mind? For me, when I first thought about the word outbreak and what it means my mind instantly wonders to Hollywood movies like Outbreak or Crazies where the mortality rate of the virus is 20% or higher and quickly burns through a town or city. Anyone else get that sense from how the government and media present the information? How do you define outbreak and what does it mean to you when the media and government use that word?

Outbreak – WHO definition
“The occurrence of disease cases in excess of normal expectancy. The number of cases varies according to the disease-causing agent, and the size and type of previous and existing exposure to the agent.”

Outbreak is any number of cases outside of the expected results. Per the CDC, in 2000, the US declared measles “eliminated (absence of continuous disease transmission for greater than 12 months)”. This means every single case of measles since 2000 can be considered an outbreak. Let’s take a quick look at the totals:

Measles Confirmed Cases, per the CDC

2000 - 86	2002 - 44	2004 - 37
2001 - 116	2003 - 56	2005 - 66

When was measles eradicated? Never, but now the government and media can claim an outbreak when only a single case has been confirmed because it was declared “eradicated”. This is sophistry, click-bait, and is only used to trigger fear in the reader making them easier to manipulate. This is an important thing to remember as you read and watch the news. Words and definitions matter and there are those who twist language, rhetoric, and use psychological tricks to gain power and control over those listening.

Now, there have been thousands of people being quarantined over concerns of a measles outbreak. Those thousands were vaccinated. Each outbreak only has a few cases at most during each incident; of course, these outbreaks are being attributed to the anti-vaxx movement and lack of herd immunity. Several states have started to remove exemptions for vaccinations from laws making it a requirement to be vaccinated to go out in public spaces. How can we function if we can’t go into public spaces? This is still forced vaccinations. There is no law too small that the government will not kill you over. Is it your body your choice or your body their choice?

California removed most medical exemptions and will require medical exemptions given by a doctor to be reviewed by the government before being approved. The step towards mandatory and forced vaccinations is a dangerous precedent and a slippery slope that is leading to the full tyrannical violation of freedom and liberty, in some cases it already has.

Do you believe vaccines are 100% safe and effective? Why? Have you been tested or have you had your children tested to see if they might have a serious side effect to what is found in vaccines? Have you seen the studies where they tested the full schedule of chemicals they want to inject into newborn children? It doesn’t exist. Who produced and paid for the studies you have read? You have read the inserts and warnings on each vaccine, right? Is the medical professional you are seeing making a mistake? Malpractice payments are over three billion annually in the US alone. This cost is highlighted by a 2016 Johns Hopkins study that suggested more than 250,000 deaths per year in the US occur due to medical errors and malpractice.

What is that old saying… follow the money? Who’s making money off vaccines? Do you really trust the government and the for-profit pharmaceutical industry, Big Pharma, which spent $282.7 million in 2018 on lobbying and politicians alone? Because they always tell the truth, right?

Merck & Co $6,800,000 (2018)

The consensus I see online is that the majority of citizens want nothing to do with the anti-vaxx movement or the misinformation and diseases that it is said they are spreading because this movement is viewed as pseudoscience in nature. Who do you trust? Both sides have shared false information. At one point in history , it was common to give fussy infants Soothing Syrup, which contained morphine and alcohol, or Laudanum (opium tincture) to calm them down. Today if your child’s pediatrician told you to give them morphine, alcohol, or opium because they were just fussy would you think they were out of their minds? That used to be the norm. Let that sink in. Mercury is another toxic chemical that was used as a universal medicine treating all forms of diseases and issues until people started to push for its use to be limited due to mercury poisoning injuring or killing many. This push met resistance from those who said mercury was completely safe. Appealing to authority, peers, emotions, and accomplishments are major fallacies constantly being used to justify a stance. This is proof of the lack of critical thinking skills found in society and the US education curriculum. These logical fallacies need to be stopped as they do nothing for moving the debate over vaccines forward to proper discourse.

Science is the application of learning and obtaining knowledge, it is a process that needs to be followed. As with critical thinking, science should be a never-ending process towards the truth regardless of where the truth leads us. Mainstream science has many fallacies written throughout it that eventually will be proven wrong, in many areas and schools of thought, but that should be the beauty of science – to have the ability to change and grow as new information is provided. When new evidence is presented it must be processed with critical thinking skills (Grammar, Logic, then Rhetoric) or the chance of being caught in circular logic and other fallacies increase greatly.

Background

The first vaccine ever developed, by Edward Jenner in 1796, was for Smallpox. Jenner took pus from a subject who had cowpox and injected it into a cut of another subject, a child, who was then exposed to smallpox several days later. The second subject was found to be immunized against smallpox leading to the first successful inoculation of a subject and the birth of vaccines. The first successful inoculation, implying there were others that were not successful. Not very ethical since it was done by infecting a child with an infectious disease, cowpox. Think of the children?

In 1954, John F. Enders ("The Father of Modern Vaccines") was able to isolate wild measles with colleagues from a 13-year old boy. It is attributed that Enders worked on the measles vaccine due to the botched 1954 polio vaccine that injured and killed some who received it due to the contamination of the vaccine with the polyomavirus simian virus (SV40). SV40 is a DNA virus that can induce brain and bone cancers, mesothelioma (tumors in tissue), and lymphomas (cancers in the immune system). Enders was a part of the polio vaccine creation, by discovering how to culture large amounts of the poliovirus, even though Jonas Salk took the credit for producing the polio vaccine. That same year Enders started developing the measles vaccine. In 1960, this newly created measles vaccine was tested on 1,500 “retarded children”, that is a direct quote, and 4,000 children in Nigeria. Think of the children, right? By September 1961, The Time was ready to announce that the measles vaccine “proved itself 100 percent effective”. How successful do you think the test really was? What medicine is ever 100 percent effective and comes with no side effects? The official release of the initial measles vaccine was in 1963. No long term study was done before its widespread use.

The measles vaccine had been previously licensed as a single vaccine before the MMR vaccine (vaccine in current schedule today) was introduced by Maurice Hilleman and licensed in 1971 by Merck, an international pharmaceutical company whose revenue in 2018 topped $42 billion. They spent $6.8 million on lobbying in 2018. Merck made close to $500 million on the MMR vaccine in the first quarter of 2019 alone. Hilleman started working with Merck in 1957 developing vaccinations, he would end his career developing over 40 vaccinations, and he was responsible for getting Jonas Salk’s polio vaccine pulled from the market by proving that polio vaccine could contain SV40.

In the early 1980s, vaccine makers were facing a never-ending list of claims and lawsuits over the injuries and deaths that their vaccines were causing. After some lobbying by the pharmaceutical companies, the federal government enacted the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) in 1986 which removed most civil and criminal liability from the billion dollar for-profit pharmaceutical companies. The NCVIA requires citizens to petition the federal government for vaccine injury restitutions which requires a heavy burden of evidence and proof while stretching trials out for years. Remember, the general consensus of medical professionals is that vaccines do not cause injuries or death. Most of these medical professionals are not toxicologists or virologists and attribute reactions to other causes. The NCVIA compensation for death has a $250,000 maximum payout, but no maximum limit for injuries. Two of the largest payouts for injuries has been $32 million and $38 million which took decades to settle the claim. Since 1988, the NCVIA court has paid out over $4 billion of taxpayer money to settle restitution lawsuits (Why Taxation is Theft, Taxation is Theft by Definition), protecting billion dollar companies from liability. Business and political ethics be damned, right?

Do you believe anything the government does to be a quick and efficient process? Do you believe politics, greed, and money doesn’t sway the court system? Do you really believe the government has your best interests at heart? Have you heard of the Tuskegee experiment?

“The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the African American was an infamous and unethical clinical study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the U.S. Public Health Service. The purpose of this study was to observe the natural history of untreated syphilis; the African-American men in the study were told they were receiving free health care from the United States government.” – Wikipedia

In 1972, the government claimed it stopped this experiment, which was well into a decade of vaccine research and safety precautions approved by government. How much trust are you willingly going to give this group of people who control close to every aspect of your life?

This schedule doesn’t account or show the number of boosters that vaccines require as the years pass. If a vaccine provides a lifetime immunity why does it require boosters? If vaccines work and your children are vaccinated why are you so worried if others don’t vaccinate?

Vaccine Schedule by Age (2019)

– per CDC

Birth to 15 months

• HepB – 3 doses
• RV1 – 3 doses
• DTaP – 4 doses
• Hib – 4 doses
• PCV13 – 4 doses
• IPV – 4 doses
• IIV – 1 or 2 doses (annually)
• MMR – 1 dose
• VAR – 1 dose
• HepA – 1 dose

18 months to 3 years old

• HepB – 1 dose
• DTaP – 1 dose
• IPV – 1 dose
• IIV – 1 or 2 doses (annually)
• HepA – 1 dose

4 years to 18 years old

• DTaP – 1 dose
• IPV – 1 dose
• IIV – 1 or 2 doses (annually)
• MMR – 1 dose
• VAR – 1 dose
• MenACWY-D – 2 doses
• Tdap – 1 dose
• HPV – 2 or 3 doses

There are other types of vaccines, but those are only given by the discretion of the medical professional. With those excluded, we are looking at up to 27 doses of vaccines within the first 15 months of life for a child. Add an additional eight doses by age three. By age 18 a person will have a total of up to 80 doses of vaccines. Remember, there hasn’t been a single study that includes this full schedule and the long term effects of the vaccines. At most, studies that you find could include two maybe three vaccines, you won’t find any with more than that. There is a total of 10 vaccines given within the first 15 months of life during a time that is highly important for the development of a child and no one actually knows what happens with all of the vaccines once they are injected because it hasn’t been studied.

Measles and MMR Vaccine

How dangerous is measles? What happens when someone catches it? Is all the hysteria found in mainstream media warranted? Typical symptoms for measles is a fever, cough, and rash. Scary, right? Measles is transmitted through coughing and sneezing and can be airborne for up to two hours. These stats obviously do not calculate the number of cases that were never reported due to the minor symptoms experienced where medical professional help was never needed.

Year	Mortality Rate per 100,000	Deaths/Cases
1920	1,612	7,575/469,924
1950's	100	500/500,000 annually
1971-1975	97.9	177/180,723
1990	321.6	89/27,672
2010-2018	25.5	1/3,916

For comparison:

Item	Mortality Rate per 100,000	Total Dead/Year
Logging workers	109.3	55 in 2017
Fishing workers	74.2	41 in 2017
Struck by lightning	10,000	27 in 2018
Smoking Tobacco	146.7 (480,000/327,200,000[2018])	480,000 annually
Obesity	91.7 (300,000/327,200,000[2018])	300,000 annually
Medical Malpractice	76.4 (250,000/327,200,000[2018])	250,000 annually
Alcohol	26.9 (88,000/327,200,000[2018])	88,000 annually

Did you notice that 1,118,000 people die each year due to tobacco, obesity, medical malpractice, and alcohol compared to 500 a year from measles before the vaccine was introduced? Selective outrage speaks volumes.

As you can see from the graphs the mortality rate was already in decline and bottomed out before the vaccine was introduced. Why? Clearly, something else was the cause of the decrease in mortality rates than the vaccine. Could it be the advancements in water purification and food handling standards? Of course, the number of confirmed cases of wild measles would drop after the vaccine was introduced. What do you think happens when you inject someone with a weakened version of the live virus? They get infected with the measles virus but medical professionals do not consider the symptoms that follow injection as being measles so cases are no longer counted in the statistics.

Ingredient List for MMR Vaccine

– per CDC, for children 15 months and under

MRC-5 – lung tissue of a 14-week-old aborted male fetus
WI-38 – lung tissue of a 13-week-old aborted female fetus
Glutamate – a neurotransmitter that nerve cells use to send signals
Monosodium L-glutamate – a flavor enhancer added to processed foods
Sorbitol – sugar alcohol that can produce laxative, cathartic, and diuretic results
Urea – fertilizer, resin, and pollutant reducer for engines
Measles – live virus of measles

Remember, these chemicals are injected into the body, not taken orally. Did you know abortions supply parts for vaccinations? How sure are you that these vaccines are 100% safe and effective for every child born? When there are very real risks associated with a medical procedure then it should never be made mandatory or forced.

Measles vaccine does not provide lifetime immunity and many are now finding out that they might need booster shots. Adults who were vaccinated in the 1960s are being told that they might need measles boosters. Per the CDC, the MMR vaccine “may shed measles virus for several weeks after the acute illness”. Former Merck scientists have been attempting to sue Merck for years claiming the MMR vaccine efficiency rates is much lower than Merck claims, 69% vs the 94% claimed by Merck.

Ben Swann, an independent journalist, reported in 2016 that the CDC covered up medical findings showing that the MMR vaccine increased the risk of autism in black children who were given the MMR vaccine before 36 months of age. In 1998, Dr. Andrew Wakefield, a gastroenterologist from the UK, made the claim that there was a correlation and possible causation between vaccines and gut inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease, which impedes brain development resulting in autism. Autism is a behavioral disorder that is diagnosed around age six. Even if injuries occur as an infant it is often still years later when autism symptoms become more evident that it can be officially diagnosed. After the study was published the medical industry went on the attack which resulted in Dr. Wakefield’s medical license being pulled. Causes of autism come from environmental and biological factors. A 2005 study in the Journal of NeuroVirology explains that congenital rubella as a prenatal viral infection had links to causing autism in children. This study further explains that “biological assays lend support to the association between measles virus or MMR and autism whereas epidemiologic studies show no association between MMR and autism. Further research is needed to clarify both the mechanisms whereby viral infection early in development may lead to autism and the possible involvement of the MMR vaccine in the development of autism.” A recent study in 2019 showed Autism symptoms being reduced by up to 50% within two years after a fecal transplant, microbiota transfer therapy (MTT), which is used to work on fixing gastrointestinal issues. More research needs to be conducted into the link between the gut and brain, and if vaccines, especially the MMR vaccine, really are causing adverse reactions within the gut leading to further diagnoses like autism. Look at the possible measles vaccine adverse reactions via MMR (Merck) insert:

Merck Legal issues

“Stephen A. Krahling and Joan A. Wlochowski, former Merck virologists blew the whistle by filing a qui tam action lawsuit — U.S. v Merck & Co. — in August 2010. The scientists allege that the efficacy tests for the measles, mumps, rubella vaccine (MMR) were faked. The document was unsealed in June, 2012.” AND “If what these scientists claim is true, the net result of Merck’s questionable activity was epidemics and outbreaks. It is known that the mumps component of all MMR vaccines from the mid 1990’s has had a very low efficacy, estimated at 69% (Harling 05). The outbreaks started in UK and Europe in 1998. USA’s outbreaks began in 2006.” – 2016
“Merck made a "hit list" of doctors who criticized Vioxx, according to testimony in a Vioxx class action case in Australia. The list, emailed between Merck employees, contained doctors' names with the labels "neutralise," "neutralised" or "discredit" next to them.” – 2009
“Merck’s manipulation of its data—and the FDA’s resulting approval of Vioxx in 1999—led to thousands of avoidable premature deaths and 100,000 heart attacks. Dr. David Graham, the Associate Director for Science and Medicine in FDA’s Office of Drug Safety, testified in 2004 before the Senate Finance Committee that the FDA's failure to recall Vioxx earlier had resulted in as many as 55,000 premature deaths from heart attacks and stroke.” – 2004

Other Medical Scandals

“Federal prosecutors charged 60 physicians and pharmacists Wednesday with illegally handing out opioid prescriptions in what they say is the biggest crackdown of its kind in U.S. history. Some of the doctors are accused of trading drugs for sex, giving prescriptions to Facebook friends without proper medical exams and unnecessarily pulling teeth to justify writing pain pill prescriptions. The list of indicted medical professionals includes podiatrists, orthopedic specialists, dentists, general practitioners and nurse practitioners.” – 2019
“Duke University has agreed to pay the U.S. government $112.5 million to settle allegations that it knowingly falsified or fabricated data research in 30 grants to the National Institutes of Health and the Environmental Protection Agency between 2006 and 2018, the Department of Justice announced Monday.” – 2019
“A fraudulent Chicago-area pharmacy creator has been sentenced to 5 years federal prison for his role in a $1.6 million health care fraud scheme in which he was reimbursed through Part D for hundreds of prescription claims for drugs that were never actually dispensed.” – 2019
“A central figure behind the Center for Disease Control's (CDC) claims disputing the link between vaccines and autism and other neurological disorders has disappeared after officials discovered massive fraud involving the theft of millions in taxpayer dollars. Danish police are investigating Dr. Poul Thorsen, who has vanished along with almost $2 million that he had supposedly spent on research.” – 2011

This list is by no means complete and only shows how greed and corruption can be found throughout the medical industry. So, what now? Who can you really trust? Who’s trying to control you? Has any of this information changed your stance and view on the measles vaccine? Will you continue to research vaccines yourself or will you appeal to authority and listen to the government and a for-profit pharmaceutical industry that helped push an opiate epidemic that claimed 47,000 lives in 2017? Remember, it is your body your choice. Only take into your body what you wish to. Parents, you have ultimate authority over your children, not the government, you are responsible for your children. Don’t let anyone shame you or pressure you into doing anything you don’t want to do. No one is perfect, nor do medical professionals have all of the answers. That is why medicine is a “practice”. Many medical professionals push rhetoric they were taught in school, thinking they are doing the right thing, without challenging the status quo; when someone does challenge current theory, they are vilified and viciously attacked. How many times has it been agitators hired by a greedy pharmaceutical company with a hit list?

Always try to make an informed decision with any decision and whether you choose to vaccinate or not to vaccinate, it should be your choice. Too many risks and unanswered questions exist to say vaccines, especially the MMR vaccine, are 100% safe or effective but you need to determine what risk you are willing to accept. Regardless of your choice, everyone should stand against mandatory or forced vaccinations.
