In the latest attempt to “prove” vaccines don’t cause autism, the Institute of Medicine ended up admitting that standard childhood shots can cause just about everything else.
This mainest of all mainstream medical bodies — the same group that rejects vitamin D supplements and sets recommended nutritional intakes ridiculously low — says there’s “convincing evidence” that common vaccines can cause seizures, brain inflammation, infection, body encephalitis, pneumonia, meningitis, hepatitis and more.
But not autism.
There… don’t you feel better? Now go get your kid vaccinated!
The ironic part here is the admission of brain inflammation — a condition that already has strong ties to autism. Admitting one but not the other is like admitting something can cause the sniffles… but insisting there’s no link to the cold.
I’m not going to rehash the vaccine/autism debate because even without the autism link, you don’t need vaccines — and the Institute of Medicine has helpfully given you a laundry list of reasons to keep these shots away from your kids.
Brain inflammation… meningitis… body encephalitis… need I go on? With a list like that, who needs autism?!?
Those aren’t the only problems with vaccines. Despite what you’ve heard, inoculations haven’t saved lives — they’ve harmed millions, killed thousands, and weakened the natural immunity of the entire human race.
But tell someone you don’t want your kids to face those risks, and they treat you like some kind of radical nutjob. If you find yourself in that position, read this.
It’ll give you all the ammunition you need to win any argument over vaccinations.
Shooting down shots,

The whole world will be relieved,and rejoice, as it is coming from horse’s mouth.
I believe vaccines can cause these issues, but I would take your article more seriously if you included one thing – the rate of these side effects vs. the rate of the deaths/side effects of the illnesses the vaccines address. For example, this article has facts with statistics to back it up. Yours plays on the fear factor and succeeded in one thing. It motivated me to take a glance at vaccinations again, and the data I found support vaccines for my child and for society. Yes, these side effects are terrible, but they are better than say… polio… These diseases aren't completely irradicated and we should fear them, because if you succeed in scaring people away from vaccinations, the diseases will be back full force. And I will be very upset if a parent of a child who chose not to vaccinate exposes me, or an immunity-deficient child to something serious.
I wouldn't comment on this article if you had included real numbers, instead of trying to scare people. For anyone reading the comment, here is an article with real numbers.
I fear these side effects, as do I fear the diseases the vaccines prevent.

Diana-Tell me one thing. VACCINES are meant to make your child IMMUNE from EXPOSURE. Correct? So how could a parents decision to NOT vaccinate affect you or your children? Makes no sense. Does it. and FYI most of these "outbreaks" have been occuriong in populations where there was at least or above a 90% vaccination rate.
Very well-stated post, Dr Douglass! Thank you.
The vaccine zealots specious arguments that “vaccines don’t cause autism” and their merciless attack on the integrity of a good man, Dr Andrew Wakefield, are both strategic “misdirections” by Pharma which are intended to distract the public from “convincing evidence” that common vaccines can cause seizures, brain inflammation, infection, body encephalitis, pneumonia, meningitis, hepatitis and more”.
So the vaccine zealots want us to risk Autism and Alzheimer's? The state does not own our bodies. We all have a God-given right to refuse vaccination. This is still a free country, isn't it?

They use Edward Bernays’ playbook to perpetuate mythology – the dual myths of “vaccine-preventable disease” and “vaccine-induced herd immunity”. The evidence is considerable, however, that vaccines actually induce “herd susceptibility to disease”, not immunity. To say that vaccines induce “immunity” is fraudulent.

For vaccines to induce "herd immunity", they have to be effective at actually producing "immunity". Here is where the fallacy lies: vaccines have never been proven to produce immunity, protection, or prevention of diseases. But vaccines are a fantastic public relations ploy. What politician can resist their allure?
"Specific levels of hemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibody titer post-vaccination with inactivated influenza virus vaccines have not been correlated with protection from influenza virus infection. In some human studies, antibody titers > or equal to 1:40 have been associated with protection from influenza illness in up to 50% of subjects."
This statement from one of the package inserts is abhorrent. There use of the word "protection" is fraudulent. Their citation of "50% of subjects" is no better odds than flipping a coin.
We had been warned! We should have seen this coming.

Thanks for speaking out Dr. Douglass. Your not the only one trying to help people protect their children.

I can use examples from my own experiences, such as the father of someone I know very well:
According to this person I've known for most of my life, he was inoculated immediately prior to an overseas trip and became paralyzed and diagnosed by the doctor with Guillan-Barre's syndrome, stating that his paralysis was the direct cause of the specific inoculation given. This occurred one calendar year ago. He is in his early 60's, and was in impeccable health prior to inoculation, trotting about the globe, with his church, for the last two decades, building orphanages (mostly in Russia), up until this point. He is now under the 24/7 care of his youngest daughter and her family, and walks with a cane after, recently, abandoning the use of his wheelchair. He's on meds., of course, and will probably be on them for the rest of his life, but I'll need to check with this person about his plans for continuation with meds, to be certain.
My eldest son (I have two) I had decided to have completely inoculated, mostly due to the fear that he could be taken away from me via Social Services (I was in a dire situation, at the time, with poverty). Since I was in a terrible way during the time my son was a toddler, I could not keep him, and chose to give him up for adoption. He was 2 1/2 years old, at the time. However, when he was an infant, I remember having him inoculated with six different shots in one visit. I listened to the health care practitioner and believed her, stating that, since he was behind on his inoculations, he'd need to have them updated at the time of the visit. Reluctantly, I let her proceed with inoculations and cried when my son screamed his blood-curdling scream with each needle going into his arm. During the puncture of the sixth and last shot, I begged the health care practitioner to stop hurting my son. I remember noticing that she didn't flinch; it just seemed all too routine to her. It really scared the day lights out of me when I noticed this nonchalance about her. This took place nearly 13 years ago.
Fast forward to the time of his sixth or seventh year of age, I was told by family members, who remained in contact with the adoptive family, that he was having some trouble with learning in school, and picked up certain subjects more slowly than the other children. I am not at all saying that I connect the inoculations with his learning disability, but one has to wonder. One, also, must wonder what other effects, if any, he may be experiencing.
I have a younger boy at home with me and my husband. Our boy is nearly 21 months old. He has NEVER been inoculated. There are several things that don't add up with me. Firstly, I don't accept the "herd immunity" theory. It doesn't make sense. When things don't add up, I tend not to believe them. Secondly, I don't believe that an injection of poisonous substances makes a person immune to anything, especially when the substance that is being injected into the person's flesh is supposed to make that person immune to THAT disease, not including all the other disgusting ingredients that make up a vaccination cocktail. After all, don't people need to take anti-rejection drugs if their implants aren't accepted by their own bodies? It's an invasion, if you will, of a foreign matter, which inoculations, certainly are. Thirdly, I don't believe that immunizations don't cause autism. I also don't believe that there are thousands of "diseases", but many reactions, or symptoms, caused by a root problem in the human body; but this is an, altogether, separate discussion. Autism could fall under ANY of all of such symptoms/diseases/syndromes/conditions, whatever hat that one may for the immunization "mishap" to wear. Doesn't mean that inoculations DON'T cause Autism, or any other brain malfunction.
I believe that inoculations cause thousands of symptoms, and that they can cause them within days, weeks, months, years, and even decades after inoculation but, of course, this becomes more difficult to link the symptoms to the vaccinations the more time that passes.
I also believe that the people most likely to be inoculated are those who are hopelessly devoted to the premise of vaxes/promoters of stem-cell research/promoters of cloning all life forms – including humans/accepting of gmo foods/against the implementation of "core" nutrition as a diet regiment(nutrition designed by Mother Earth) and, instead, promoters of any fad diet du jour, fast foods, diet pills/and those who go against the overall intelligence of the human body's natural defenses, the uneducated, the impoverished, the unsuspecting, the mainstream herd mentality, and the completely liable, desperate, dire groups in every region of the globe.
It's a stretch and, certainly, nothing of proof, but these are still my ideas and experiences…
Thanks for reading.
