Myth Busted: Vaccinations Are Not Immunizations

The facts…

Craig Stellpflug  -  Natural News  -  May 16, 2012

There is only one kind of immunity and that is natural immunity which is achieved by battling the infectious diseases itself.

Vaccination is merely the artificial triggering of temporary responses to manmade pathogens. Vaccines are both harmful and dangerous and are leading to generations of humans with no natural defenses to disease.

Vaccines do not provide long-term immunity; only temporary at best. In vaccines, an antigen is injected into the body to produce a reaction and the immune system responds in the form of antibodies, but antibody presence does not confer immunity. People still catch the diseases that they are vaccinated against. Vaccines actually skip the normal immune responses to activate killer cells which can trigger an overproduction of cytokines in response to the toxic vaccine adjuvants and can damage tissues and organs and even stop the heart and block air pathways.

Vaccines should never be called immunizations because that is a misnomer. Immunity and vaccinations are two different subjects altogether. In fact, breast milk is so potent with immune energizing effects in the infant that researchers at the CDC recommend women withhold breastfeeding their children in order to boost the “effectiveness” of childhood vaccines. The paper claims that women should stop breastfeeding long enough for the man-made poison to work on artificial/temporary “immunity.”

There is no such thing as a “side effect”

After-effects of vaccines are only followed for a very short time. Effects that are not seen for 30 years will not even be associated with the vaccine. Immunizations are contributing to the lowering of immunity along with the spread of auto-immune diseases such as arthritis and even AIDS throughout the world. Research clearly shows that aluminum mixed into vaccines carries a risk for autoimmunity, long-term brain inflammation, and subsequent neurological complications and may have profound and widespread adverse health complications. Many vaccines contain both aluminum and trace amounts of mercury. When you mix these 2 metals together it causes Extreme Synergistic Toxicity.

The facts:

As vaccinated disease rates go down (but not necessarily as a result of toxic vaccinations), the rate of chronic disease goes up in lock-step. Vaccines, as they are commonly given, destroy the natural immunity process and accelerate the auto-immune disease process.

Deaths from measles in 1900 were 13 per 100,000 people. In 1948: less than one. Measles vaccines introduced in 1963 but took full credit for what they never did – eliminate measles. Japanese health authorities realized that early inoculations were causing crib deaths so they postponed them until the 24th month and SIDS virtually disappeared along with whooping cough (pertussis) during the first two years of babies’ lives. Instead of preventing whooping cough the DPT promotes it as well as SIDS. Reuters recently reports that according to the CDC, the number of pertussis cases is growing – in

the fully vaccinated population!

The recent Bachmair vaccine study reveals that the allergy rate in vaccinated children is more than double the rate in unvaccinated ones. Vaccinated children are also nearly eight times more prone to develop asthma or chronic bronchitis than unvaccinated. Furthermore, vaccinated kiddos suffer from more neurodermatitis, herpes, otitis media, hay fever, hyperactivity, scoliosis, epilepsy and seizures, migraine headaches, thyroid disease, and SIDS than unvaccinated children. Vaccinated kids historically also have more measles than unvaccinated kids.

Doctor after doctor will tell you that vaccinations have reduced the incidence of many infectious diseases but they have no real proof. In fact, all the epidemical evidence shows that disease rates rise after vaccines – in the vaccinated population. Should we trust them just on their word? Make an informed decision about you and your child’s health.

Is sharing a bed with your baby a good idea?

Sleeping baby.Question: Pediatrics has its share of issues that always give rise to strong emotional responses. No matter what position you take on, for instance, breast-feeding, pacifiers, or vaccines, someone is bound to come after you with a pitchfork. Exactly where the baby sleeps is another such topic. For years, most pediatricians have gently (or vigorously) urged parents to let their infants sleep in a crib, a bassinet, or, indeed, almost anywhere but the parents' bed. Parents—especially in the last few years—have pushed back against doctors, arguing that it is both natural and beneficial for babies to co-sleep with parents. The people who favor bed sharing believe that it promotes successful breast-feeding, strengthens mother-child bonding, and may even allow parents to detect and halt Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. But is there any evidence to support these claims—and the overall safety of co-sleeping?

Answer: 
Here come the pitchforks. Not only are there no good data to support these beliefs, but a new study supports what most pediatricians have been saying all along: There is substantial risk in infant-parent bed sharing, and parents should be aware of this risk before bringing babies to bed to sleep with them.

Methodology: The study tracked mortality patterns in the United States over a 20-year period ending in 2004. The researchers collected death-certificate information about all babies who died suddenly and whose deaths were unexpected. For many of the children whose deaths fell into this category, no definite cause could be assigned; these are the children who traditionally have been thought to be victims of SIDS. That number has been dropping dramatically during the 20-year period under study, almost certainly a result of the "back to sleep" campaign, which followed the discovery that the risk of SIDS goes up when babies sleep face-down. But there is another category of unexpected infant deaths, one in which death-scene analysis permits a plausible cause of death to be assigned: accidental suffocation and strangulation in bed. Those numbers have quadrupled in the two decades under study.

Some of those cases obviously have nothing to do with bed sharing—like strangulation in a defective crib. (Among deaths for which the sleeping surface was known, about 15 percent occurred in cribs.) But in cases of sudden, unexpected infant deaths attributed to suffocation or strangulation, more than half occurred in co-sleeping circumstances (and where the sleeping surface was noted, more than 80 percent of the deaths occurred in an adult bed, a sofa, or a couch). A variety of causes were implicated in these deaths, including suffocation by bedding or soft materials and wedging between two objects, but the single most common cause was "overlying," in which a deeply sleeping parent rolled over and suffocated a baby.

Conclusion: This study doesn't really give us the answer about the safety or risk of co-sleeping—it just raises enough questions to make us very nervous. There are some ways that have been suggested to minimize the risk to the baby for those who want to continue co-sleeping, though there are no good studies to back them up. Putting the baby in a little outrigger attached to the side of the parents' bed or in a small canoelike device in the bed itself have been suggested as methods that might decrease the risk. (The sleeping chamber should have a firm bottom and not be filled with loose bedding or stuffed creatures.) Also, don't even think of bed sharing if you have been taking any medication, including antihistamines, which might make you sleep more deeply, or if you have been drinking an alcoholic beverage. But until we have a better study, I think it is important for parents to know that bed sharing, which might have some benefits, could well also have some very significant risks.
