WHO WANTS TO SHARE THE CHICKENPOX????




https://nvnin.wordpress.com/2016/03/15/who-wants-to-share-the-chickenpox/

Chickenpox is one of several minor childhood illness nearly every child experiences in their early years, or at least they used to. Mild fever, a few days of itchy spots, and that was it. What remained was a strengthened immune system and possibly a few minor scars. Since the introduction of a vaccine, chickenpox has become a thing of the past...... or has it? What consequences are there for changing the natural course of a benign childhood disease?
The chickenpox vaccine was introduced in the United States in the mid 90's, and was soon thereafter added to the CDC vaccine schedule. Initially, it was recommended anyone under age 13 receive one dose of the vaccine while anyone over 13 receive two doses, claiming two doses would incur lifetime immunity. Following its implementation, children under 13 continued to contract chicken pox, so in 2006 the CDC recommended that younger children also receive 2 doses of the vaccine. The CDC also claims the vaccine makes this mild disease somehow less dangerous, but this isn't always the case. So, how safe is this vaccine really?

SOME FACTS ABOUT THE CHICKENPOX VACCINE
There are two live virus vaccines for chickenpox licensed in the U.S.: Varivax and ProQuad (MMRV), both manufactured by Merck.
  • The CDC recommends children receive a chickenpox vaccination at 12 months and a booster dose between 4 and 6 years of age;
  • Reported complications from the chickenpox vaccine include: shock, seizures, brain inflammation (encephalitis), thrombocytopenia (blood disorder), Guillain-Barre Syndrome, death, and infection with vaccine-strain chickenpox including possible transmission of vaccine-strain chickenpox to others;
  • Chickenpox vaccine effectiveness is reported to be 44 percent for any form of the disease and 86 percent for moderate to severe disease;
  • Mass use of the chickenpox vaccine in the U.S. has removed the opportunity for the natural boosting of immunity in the population by re-exposure, which provides protection from shingles occurrences. Due to this, adults as well as vaccinated children are now experiencing shingles outbreaks;
  • In 2006, the CDC recommended an additional dose of the chickenpox vaccine for all children under age 13, and a shingles vaccine was licensed and recommended for all adults over age 60 in an attempt to combat the rising occurrence of shingles outbreaks.
  • As of September 1, 2015, there had been 122 claims filed in the federal Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) for injuries and deaths following chickenpox or varicella vaccination, including 8 deaths and 114 serious injuries.
  • Using the MedAlerts search engine, as of September 30, 2015 there have been 3,358 serious adverse reactions reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) in connection with chickenpox varicella-containing vaccines since 1990. Over half of all reported serious chickenpox vaccine-related adverse events occurred in children six years old and under. Of those, 161 were deaths, with over 60% of the deaths occurring in children under six years of age.

WHAT ABOUT SHINGLES?
Chickenpox cannot thoroughly be discussed without also mentioning shingles: the reactivation of the varicella virus due to stress or a compromised immune system. The chickenpox vaccine is not used in the UK and many other countries around the world because it is known that re-exposure to the chickenpox virus is required to prevent waning immunity in older individuals, i.e. shingles outbreaks. “If there is less chickenpox in children then there will be no boosting of immunity by exposure to chickenpox for middle and older aged people and thus there will be more shingles, at least until all the elderly have been vaccinated as children but this assumes that immunity conferred by vaccination is lifelong.”

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2563790/

Studies have shown that the chickenpox vaccine does increase the risk of shingles, but even that fact is being distorted: “Vaccinating one-year-olds against chickenpox could temporarily nearly double the incidence of shingles in the wider population, but in younger adults than previously thought.”
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/08/150811103555.htm
It should be mentioned that MERCK is maker of both the vaccine for shingles and chickenpox.

WHAT ARE THE CHICKENPOX LIKE?
Many parents still opt for natural infection. This is due to vaccine failure as well as the unknown duration of effectiveness this vaccine may offer. I will be keeping this blog post updated with stories, videos, and pictures of real people from around the world who have experienced chickenpox. I personally did not have chickenpox as a child, and am therefore also attempting to gain exposure as part of my documentary entitled “SPOTTING THE TRUTH!”

CHICKENPOX CASE #1
Here is what the chickenpox were like for a family from the Midwestern United States that opted for natural immunity, as you can see everything is fine, just an award winning case of the chickenpox.









CHICKENPOX CASE #2
The next chickenpox experience comes from New Zealand, this family was kind enough to give full details of their chickenpox experience.




I will be doing similar blog posts for other childhood diseases, including mumps, measles, and rubella. I recently did a blog post regarding mumps, which can be seen here:

PARENTS HAVE LOST ALL RIGHTS IN CA!!!!

KIDS IN CA CAN NOW BE VACCINATED WITHOUT PARENT CONSENT :( :( :( THIS IS WHY WE HAVE TO FIGHT, THIS IS WHY ANTI VAXERS ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING THEIR CHILDREN, THIS IS WHY PRO VAXERS ARE DANGEROUS!!!!! THIS IS WHY VACCINATION IS NOT A RIGHT ANY PARENT HAS THE RIGHT TO MAKE!!!!!

Parents if you have children in CA they will be pressuring your children to get vaccines, they will be pressuring other kids to pressure your kids into be vaccinated.

NOW WE HAVE TO GO TO THE KIDS! I have been saying this for YEARS!!!! Kids need to be taught to refuse vaccines!!!!! Seriously, what can they do???? Have the police or a nurse hold down a older kid or teen????

PARENTS NOT ONLY DO YOU NEED TO TALK--YOU NEED TO ORGANIZE, YOU NEED TO PICKET SCHOOL BASED HEALTH CENTERS AND HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND HAND OUT INFORMATION AND NOT ONLY TALK TO THE PARENTS BUT THE OLDER KIDS.

THE MUMPS VACCINE EPIC FAIL!

WOW!!!!!!!! Voodoo science at its worst! All of the people who are getting the mumps in this outbreak have had 2 doses of the MMR. The funny thing is they are now just making it up as they go along and are claiming a person needs 3 doses if they live or work on a college campus. I heard the same crap a few years ago when there was an outbreak in NYC, a Dr was pushing a 3rd dose on teens and said he would like to see it become a 4 dose series or perhaps even more. 

If anyone has any information on this outbreak please pass it my direction.

BERKELEY -- Hundreds of UC Berkeley students and employees lined up outside the campus health center Thursday for free vaccinations after a mumps outbreak infected up to 20 students.
A spokeswoman for the health center said the university and state public-health officials expected to vaccinate more than 1,000 people by the time the clinic closed at 6 p.m. The university will hold another free clinic from noon to 6 p.m. Oct. 14.
The state Department of Public Health was monitoring the rare outbreak this week. A department spokesman said he had no update on the number of students infected. Seven cases had been confirmed and 13 other students were being tested.
Although health officials initially wondered whether the outbreak started with students who had not been vaccinated, a spokeswoman for the city of Berkeley said all the patients had received the two recommended doses before becoming ill. Three vaccinations are recommended for people living and working on college campuses, a city health official said.

These liars will stop at NOTHING!!!

WOW!!! THE SPIN DOCTORING AND THE LIES TO PUSH THIS VACCINE ON BOYS AND MEN!!! Reminds me of some of the lies they use to get people to take the Hep B vaccine.

Researchers examined 271 throat-tumor samples collected over 20 years ending in 2004 and found that the percentage of oral cancer linked to the human papillomavirus, or HPV, surged to 72 percent from about 16 percent, according to a report released yesterday in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. By 2020, the virus-linked throat tumors -- which mostly affected men -- will become more common than HPV-caused cervical cancer, the report found.

. . . Until recently, head and neck cancer mainly occurred in older patients and was associated with tobacco and alcohol use. The HPV-linked head and neck cancers, usually of the tonsils, palate or tongue, hit men their 30s, 40s, and 50s, Gillison said. It is unclear why women are affected much less often than men, she said.

. . . In a 2007 epidemiology study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Gillison and her colleagues found that having a high number of oral or vaginal sex partners are risk factors for HPV-associated throat cancer. The cancer may also be spread by open-mouth kissing, Gillison said in the interview. "Nobody paid attention to oral HPV infections until 2007," she said. "We are about 15 years behind in the research" compared with the data on cervical cancer and HPV, she said.
The most troubling thing for me is that I imagine that this is going to be harder to detect than cervical cancer. (ENTs and cancer docs, please feel free to correct me).  As an OB-GYN said to me, "HPV just loves the cervix", which means that as long as you're getting regular pap smears, the doctor is very, very likely to catch a genital infection before it turns into terminal cancer.  (I don't mean to imply that the treatments are no big deal, because they aren't--they range from uncomfortable to excruciating and can mean infertility.  But they're still preferable to being dead.)

But the throat's got a lot of stuff in there, a lot of nooks and crannies where HPV could hide--can we catch potentially cancerous oral infections the way we do when they're in the reproductive tract?

The other question I have is whether this is going to change the terms of the debate around HPV vaccines.  Me, I figure if we can possibly wipe out a virus that gives people cancer, we should do our very damndest.  Regardless of how the cancer is contracted.  But from the extremely emotional response I got when I blogged about Gardasil a few weeks ago, this is obviously not the universal view.

HPV VACCINE & POSSIBLE MANDATED CIRCUMCISION FOR BOYS!

This is just sick! Next the CDC will be using the HPV excuse as a way to push and possibly mandate circumcision of males. Mark my words on this, they are going to try it! They will use HPV, HIV, or some other hair brained excuse.

This is not the 1st time that a vaccine protecting females was later pushed on boys--They did it with the rubella vaccine.
PLEASE NOTE: While the safety of the HPV vaccine is generally established and still remains recommended by the government health agency, it has been shown in some studies to be associated with anaphylaxis, blood clots and fainting, and linked with some deaths.

HPV Vaccine For Boys? CDC Considers Recommending Vaccinations For All

Vaccinating just half the population against human papilloma virus (HPV) only solves half the problem.

Now that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that girls and young women be vaccinated against the disease that can lead to cervical cancer, the treatment's effectiveness with regard to the male population is beginning to come into the limelight. In fact, the CDC is now considering recommending the shot for boys as well, according to Health Day.
From Health Day:
A debate that's been simmering over whether males also should be vaccinated for human papillomavirus, or HPV, could come to a head in October at a meeting of a key advisory committee of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said CDC spokesman Tom Skinner.
Previous studies have shown that the HPV vaccine could even have a more powerful effect than simply immunizing males against the disease and protecting women. According to Science Daily, one study showed that giving the vaccine to men could prevent as many as 90 of genital warts cases.

A study published in March also said that almost half of the male population of the US could be infected with HPV.

The issue of immunizing girls to the virus has returned to the limelight recently amidst the GOP Presidential debates. Notably, Texas Governor Rick Perry's 2007 mandate to require young girls to be vaccinated against the disease has drawn criticism from fellow conservatives.

According to Everyday Health, the measure was overridden in 2008.
While the safety of the HPV vaccine is generally established and still remains recommended by the government health agency, it has been shown in some studies to be associated with anaphylaxis, blood clots and fainting, and linked with some deaths.

Dr says risk of being crippled should not deter anyone from the H1N1 vaccine

No protection for this vaccine injured teen!

"If he had received the regular flu vaccine, the family would be able to file a claim with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program," said attorney Clifford Shoemaker. "But because it was the swine flu program, which falls under the same bill as terrorism … the family will get very little in compensation for what's happened to this child."

Also note how this Dr is still pushing the poison vaccine:

While the boy's paralysis is heartbreaking, Shafrir said it shouldn't deter anyone from getting the vaccination.

CECIL COUNTY, Md. -- A Cecil County teenager is in rehab and is paralyzed from the chest down as a result of getting the H1N1 flu vaccine at his school, according to his parents and doctor. Robert Beckham, 16, is in rehab at Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital, where he and his parents, Belinda and Tom, are learning to cope with his new status as a paraplegic. In December, Robert suddenly lost feeling in both his legs and was rushed to Baltimore's Sinai Hospital. "Very unfortunately, under very heavy treatment, not only did he not improve, he even got slightly worse," said Sinai pediatric neurologist Dr. Yuval Shafrir. Shafrir said Robert is being treated for a rare condition called transverse mylitis in which a segment of Robert's spinal cord was destroyed by his own immune system. Transverse mylitis is a disease that can occur after infection, but in this case, Shafrir said it was a medically unpredictable reaction to a vaccination that's being given in schools all over the country. "The only obvious cause was the H1N1 vaccination," Shafrir said. "I kept pestering my parents to get me this shot. I got it, and a month later, it went bad," Robert said. "I'm still in shock from it. I can't believe that this happened to him," said the teen's mother. "I did not know there was even a small chance of this. I had never heard of this happening," Robert's father said. To make matters worse for the family, both of Robert's parents are disabled and financially unable to bring him home from the hospital. "If he had received the regular flu vaccine, the family would be able to file a claim with the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program," said attorney Clifford Shoemaker. "But because it was the swine flu program, which falls under the same bill as terrorism … the family will get very little in compensation for what's happened to this child." There's a fundraiser this weekend in Cecil County to help them out. It will be held at 6 p.m. Saturday at the Porters Grover Baptist Church at 478 Connelly Road in Rising Sun. The family needs help making their home handicapped-accessible for Robert. All donations can be made at Cecil Bank in care of Robert Beckham. Meanwhile, Maryland Health Department officials are aware of Robert's case. "Certainly, there are instances of adverse events -- they're very rare -- and it's something we want to monitor closely," said DHMH Deputy Secretary Fran Phillips.

While the boy's paralysis is heartbreaking, Shafrir said it shouldn't deter anyone from getting the vaccination.

Families will make case for vaccine link to autism

I am not one to usually ask for prayer but these people need as much positive support / prayer as possible because these people have had their families turned upside down by something promoted as keeping their children safe. All they have been left with so far are cover ups and lies.

How do the pro vax drs, the idiots with financial ties to big pharma, and the people who make this poison sleep at night? I don't get it.

Families will make case for vaccine link to autism

By KEVIN FREKING
The Associated Press
Monday, May 12, 2008; 4:36 AM

WASHINGTON -- The Institute of Medicine said in 2004 there was no credible evidence to show that vaccines containing the preservative thimerosal led to autism in children. But thousands of families have a different take based on personal experience.

Some of them are going to court Monday as attorneys will attempt to show that the mercury-based preservative triggers symptoms of autism.

Two 10-year-old boys from Portland, Ore., will serve as test cases to determine whether many of the children and their families should be compensated. Attorneys for the boys will attempt to show the boys were happy, healthy and developing normally _ but, after being exposed to vaccines with thimerosal, they began to regress.

Thimerosal has been removed in recent years from standard childhood vaccines, except flu vaccines that are not packaged in single-doses. The CDC says single-dose flu shots currently are available only in limited quantities. In 2004, a committee with the Institute of Medicine concluded there was no credible evidence that vaccines containing thimerosal caused autism.

Overall, nearly 4,900 families have filed claims with the U.S. Court of Claims alleging that vaccines caused autism and other neurological problems in their children. Lawyers for the families are presenting three different theories of how vaccines caused autism.

The Office of Special Masters of the claims court has instructed the plaintiffs to designate three test cases for each of the three theories _ nine cases in all _ and has assigned three special masters to handle the cases. Three cases in the first category were heard last year, but no decisions have been reached.

The two cases beginning Monday are among the three that focus on the second theory of causation: that thimerosal-containing vaccines alone cause autism. The plaintiff in the third case originally scheduled for hearing this month has withdrawn and lawyers and court officials are working to agree on substitute case.

Hearings in the test cases for the third theory of causation are scheduled in mid-September.

Lawyers for the petitioning families in the cases being heard this month say they will present evidence that injections with thimerosal deposit a form of mercury in the brain. That mercury excites certain brain cells that stay chronically activated trying to get rid of the intrusion.

"In some kids, there's enough of it that it sets off this chronic neuroinflammatory pattern that can lead to regressive autism," said attorney Mike Williams.

In the end, the families' attorneys hope to convince the special master hearing their case that thimerosal belongs on the list of causes for the inflammation that leads to regressive autism.

To win, the attorneys for the two boys, William Mead and Jordan King, will have to show that it's more likely than not that the vaccine actually caused the injury.

Many members of the medical community are skeptical of the families' claims. They worry that the claims about the dangers of vaccines could cause some people to forgo vaccines that prevent illness.

"I think that what's so endearing to me about the anti-vaccine people, is they're perfectly willing to go from one hypothesis to the next without a backward glance," said Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

Autism is a developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and affects a person's ability to communicate and interact with others. Dr. Andrew Gerber, a psychiatrist, said that medical experts don't have a comprehensive understanding of what causes autism, but they do know there is a strong hereditary component.

Toxins from the environment could play a role, but currently, data does not support that they do, Gerber said.

Arguments are scheduled to go on throughout the month. A final decision could take several more months. Claims that are successful would result in compensation taking into account lost earnings after age 18 and up to $250,000 for pain and suffering.

The families or the federal government can also appeal the decision of the special master to the Court of Federal Claims or to a federal appeals court.

The court Web site says more than 12,500 claims have been filed since creation of the program in 1987, including more than 5,300 autism cases, and more than $1.7 billion has been paid in claims. It says there is now more than $2.7 billion in a trust fund supported by an excise tax on each dose of vaccine covered by the program.

Changing patterns in vaccine era pose questions about durability of immunity

I will take my risk with natural exposure to the childhood diseases over vaccination any day.


*****

http://canadianpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5gNqVbEk87YKN2ve20_ppTYGyBidA

Changing patterns in vaccine era pose questions about durability of immunity

TORONTO — We call them the diseases of childhood - measles, mumps, rubella and chickenpox, to name a few.

But now that these diseases seldom circulate in countries that immunize against them and immune protection is rarely being naturally refreshed or "boosted" by sporadic exposure, is there a risk that in the future, older adults may find themselves unexpectedly vulnerable to these disease pests from their past?

As we head into a world where an ever growing - and aging - proportion of the population only has vaccine-acquired protection, what is really known about how long immunity is likely to endure? For that matter, can science be sure that immunity generated by infection - thought for many diseases to be lifelong - will actually hold true in the vaccine age?

"I don't think we know much at all," acknowledges Dr. Samuel Katz, co-inventor of the measles vaccine and a pediatric infectious disease expert at Duke University in Durham, N.C.

Figuring out answers about the durability of immunity - naturally and vaccine-acquired - in a time without natural boosting won't be easy.

But the last generation to have routinely suffered through most of these diseases is crossing through mid-life and the first generation to have avoided them is hovering around 40.

As both groups head toward the so-called golden years when possible waning immunity may be exacerbated by the age-related decline of the immune system, gauging the levels of society's disease defences could become key to keeping these nasty invaders out of our communities, experts say.

Dr. Michael Osterholm says scientists should be doing long-term immunity studies - following groups of people for decades - in the way cancer researchers track groups of people to try to discern what causes cancer.

"That would help us understand at what point does the level of protection drop for a population. Not any one individual. But a population norm where you would now recommend that a booster shot should occur as a standard of medical practice," suggests Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Diseases Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.

Before vaccination became commonplace, adults often came in contact with youngsters suffering from mumps, measles and the other childhood diseases. That remained the case in the early days of vaccine administration when these diseases still commonly circulated.

If people had protection - natural or vaccine-acquired - those exposures were actually helpful. They acted as a sort of natural booster shot, reminding the immune system to be on guard for this threat.

Some experts now suggest these unrecorded natural boosts may have led medicine to overestimate the durability of immunity generated by childhood vaccinations and maybe even natural infection, though it is thought to be more enduring than vaccine-acquired infection.

These days, few people are getting natural boosting to these diseases.

"What's happening if we don't have these exposures? I don't know," Katz admits.

These questions about the durability of immunity are on the minds of public health authorities in countries where childhood vaccines have been in longest use, says Dr. Jane Seward, an expert in vaccine-preventable diseases with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta.

"It's certainly a reasonable hypothesis that immunity might wane more quickly in the absence of external boosting. Whether that's the case or not, we don't know. But it's a reasonable thing to postulate," she says.

Seward's group at the CDC is following people who were vaccinated with the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine about 15 years ago to track how well their protection is holding up. They hope to mount a similar effort to study chickenpox vaccine, which was only put into broad use in the U.S. and Canada in the mid-to late-1990s.

Others, though, acknowledge the long-term studies needed to assess immunity levels generated by the range of childhood vaccines haven't been undertaken in a systematic manner.

"We have not methodically - we being the field of public health officials, scientists - we have not methodically measured the level of immune responses to standard childhood diseases vaccines that people have received one, two, three, four, five decades earlier," says Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

"It has been done mostly in a reactive mode," he says, pointing as an example to work done to understand a large outbreak of mumps in Iowa in 2006.

The full picture of the durability of immunity in the vaccine era will probably take decades to come into sharp focus. And the answers will likely vary from disease to disease, Fauci and others say.

For instance, U.S. studies done to test whether smallpox vaccinations given decades ago offered any current protection showed that those who had been vaccinated probably still have protective immunity. "We were stunned," Fauci says.

But a soon-to-be published study by some of Seward's CDC colleagues - done as part of the Iowa mumps investigation - shows antibody levels to the mumps virus had declined markedly in people who had received the recommended two doses of vaccine 15 years or more earlier. That suggests the vaccine's protection is less enduring than would have been hoped.

The fact that the protection may not be lifelong should not be characterized as a failure of the vaccines, public health experts say. The years of protection they have already conferred have dramatically slashed rates of once common diseases.

Consider measles: Where 300,000 to 400,000 Canadian children used to contract the disease every year, now an outbreak of fewer than a handful of cases - such as a recent cluster in Toronto - makes the news.

Given that measles has a complication rate of 20 per cent and that the World Health Organization estimates measles killed 242,000 children around the globe in 2006, proponents term vaccines as a modern day medical miracle.

Experts also warn that the fact that immunity may not be lifelong should not be used to argue for natural infection over immunization.

"Never forget natural infection comes at a great cost, both potentially to the individual and definitely to society," Osterholm insists. "Each infection is a crapshoot as to whether it's going to be mild, moderate, severe or fatal. And those are odds none of us should have to take."

The end result of the investigation into the durability of immunity in the vaccine age could be a recognition that adults need booster shots to prevent outbreaks of what we now consider childhood diseases. Osterholm, for one, thinks that's likely.

Fauci isn't sure, suggesting the lack of natural boosting highlights the fact that exposures to the viruses and bacteria that cause these diseases are rare in North America.

"There is a potential risk. I mean you'd have to say that. I'm not so sure how great a risk it's going to be."

Should emerging data show adults will need booster shots for childhood diseases, vaccine delivery programs will have to be reorganized to look at issues of who pays and how best to ensure adults actually get the shots, says Dr. Bonnie Henry, chair of the Canadian Coalition for Immunization Awareness and Promotion.

"Adult immunization is woefully neglected," notes Henry, an infectious diseases expert with the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control.

"And I don't know what the answer's going to be in that but it does pose a whole bunch of challenges because we don't have the access to people (adults) in the same way that we do when you're in school."

MEASLES, MUMPS, RUBELLA, OH MY!

I love how the person who edited this video put the media aka propaganda machine in their place! Personally, I think this kid had Rubella (German Measles aka the 3 day Measles) and not the actual Measles because it cleared up way too fast, and if you watch the rest of the report they are going around as well. This is just my opinion of course!






REPOST: Don’t Vaccinate! Measles is Important!

This is a repost from another blog I was reading, I am reposting it because it has valuable information on why it is a really bad idea to vaccinate for the measles.

http://www.whale.to/vaccines/measles.html

Don’t Vaccinate! Measles is Important!
Filed under: Health — ladybex @ 6:03 am

I remember when reading Hallelujah Acre’s endorsed book about Vaccinations: Deception and Tragedy that measles is important in developing a healthy adult immune system. I researched it on the internet today, and found this site that agrees.

Whale

Measles deaths had declined by 99.4% (!) before vaccination, so there isn’t any any evidence vaccination played any part in deaths decline, while parents are spun the lie that vaccination was the only factor in the decline and therefore the only defence, while Allopathy hypes the dangers of measles. Incidentally, over 50% of measles cases have been vaccinated (see).
MMR vaccine is obviously killing more kids now than measles would be doing, with or without the vaccine (see), as FOIA shows in 1990, in the UK, there were approximately 70 deaths associated with triple vaccines (DTP and MMR), the UK Gov’ has paid out for MMR deaths, and one media report mentioned 26 deaths. (see: MMR deaths)
Vaccination is suppressing a beneficial process of the immune system, and leads to measles in younger children where it is more dangerous, while natural therapies and the real causes of measles deaths are ignored. Deaths are caused by toxemia (see), malnutrition (see) & immune deficiency, poor management and drug use (see), while the virus gets the blame (see: The Virus hunters).
So, an ineffective dangerous vaccine causing a huge epidemic of vaccine diseases (see) such as autism,& diabetes, for a beneficial disease that is safe in healthy children under proper medical care, such as Homeopathy Naturopathy & Nutritional medicine——NB: Allopaths (with a pecuniary and professional interest in vaccination), are the only doctors who say you should fear measles. If Allopathy really cared about measles deaths they would have used Vitamin C 50 years ago (see), but that would have spelt the end of vaccination along with most of their other useless, but highly profitable, drugs. Instead they persecute their heretics/whisteblowers such as Dr Wakefield, Lisa Blakemore-Brown & Dr Jane Donegan in a nasty attempt to suppress the truth on MMR and vaccine autism, as well as taking away legal funding for the victims. See: Measles quotes for more.
They will defend MMR to the death of any number of children as vaccination is the only real PR success they have to screen the failure of Corporate monopoly medicine to cure anything apart from bacterial infections, as this ex-vaccine researcher points out: “Vaccines are the last defence of modern medicine. Vaccines are the ultimate justification for the overall “brilliance” of modern medicine.” (Ref)]

Six doctors are quoted on this site as saying that vitamin C cures measles, and that vaccinations are unnecessary to prevent measles.

Under normal conditions, healthy children do not die from or become disabled from the complications of measles and if they do, questions should be asked about their management.” —Jayne Donegan MB

“Measles has been on a major decline since the mid 1850s and this has absolutely nothing to do with any measles or MMR vaccination……A growing number of parents worldwide are choosing not to vaccinate at all, and it is not because they can’t get the single jabs, it is because they don’t see vaccination as playing any kind of role in promoting the health of their children.”—–Magda Taylor, Director of The Informed Parent

“In 1991 over 60% of cases in children were “vaccinated”. ….The measles death decline graph provided shows that the measles vaccine had nothing to do with the decline in deaths, and has not affected the number of children hospitalised during epidemic years since its introduction.
I have myself, through Natural Hygiene, over 16 years, treated all forms and hundreds of cases of typhus and typhoid fevers, pneumonia’s, measles and dysentery’s, and have not lost a single patient. The same is true of scarlet and other fevers. No medicine whatever was given”.–Dr Trall, 1860.

“Many viral infectious diseases have been cured and can continue to be cured by the proper administration of Vitamin C. Yes, the vaccinations for these treatable infectious diseases are completely unnecessary when one has the access to proper treatment with vitamin C. And, yes, all the side effects of vaccinations…are also completely unnecessary since the vaccinations do not have to be given in the first place with the availability of properly dosed vitamin C.”—Dr Thomas Levy M.D., J.D. (Vitamin C, Infectious Diseases and Toxins p30)

The above site has so much information, I didn’t have time to absorb it all. Read it, and have your eyes opened.

Mary’s Herbs answers the question, “Why Not Vaccinate?”

The long term side effects far outweigh any benefits these shots may have, these include: Autism, dyslexia, seizures, speech impediments, hearing loss, blindness, SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) and chronic fatigue syndrome to name a few!

The best way to avoid contracting any disease is proper hygiene, adequate rest, and a healthy diet including supplements and Herbs, avoiding sugar artificial ingredients and preservatives. Sugar weakens the immune system, increases the incidences of infection and the body’s ability to protect itself from disease.

Just 100mg of sugar (8oz of soda contains an average of 29 grams [2900mg]) reduces immune function by 50% in one hour.

Building up the body’s natural immunity and taking responsibility for any illness that may invade the body is more beneficial than being injected with foreign proteins and toxic substances. If the immune system is undermined and not allowed to handle disease in its own way, its ability to protect the body throughout life is lessened.

I would be remiss in encouraging you to let your children catch the measles if I didn’t provide a way to treat it. I was amazed at how many healthy natural remedies there are for measles, all revolving around diet and food.

Home Remedies for Measles

The first symptoms that appear for seven to fourteen days after exposure to the virus are feverishness, cold, watering of the eyes, and a dry cough. A rash appears on the skin four days after the onset of these symptoms. This rash, which consists of small rounded spots with reddened skin in between, initially appears on the sides of the face and the neck, and then gradually spreads allover the body, appearing last on the extremities. Initially pink in colour, the spots grow darker as time passes.

Measles is usually accompanied by fever and diarrhoea. In severe cases, high fever and delirium may occur. Complications which can arise from this disease include pneumonia, bronchitis, and abscesses in the ears. One serious but rare complication is inflammation of the brain.

Measles is one of the most contagious diseases caused by a virus. This disease is easily transmitted in the early stages through the invisible droplets of moisture, which are discharged from a patient’s nose or mouth when he coughs or sneezes.

The real causes of this disease, like other diseases of childhood, are however; wrong feeding habits and unhygienic living conditions.

Oranges are very valuable in measles, as the digestive power of the body is seriously hampered. The patient suffers from intense toxaemia, and the lack of saliva coats his tongue and often destroys his thirst for water as well as his desire for food. The agreeable flavour of orange juice helps greatly in overcoming these drawbacks. Orange juice is the ideal liquid food for this disease.

The juice of lemon also makes an effective thirst-quenching drink in measles. About 15 to 25 ml of lemon juice, diluted with water, should be take for this purpose.

Turmeric is beneficial in the treatment of measles. Raw roots of turmeric should be dried in the sun and ground to a fine powder. Half a teaspoon of this powder, mixed with a few drops of honey and the juice of a few bitter gourd leaves, should be given to patients suffering from measles.

Powdered liquorice has been found valuable in relieving the cough, which is typical in measles. The child patient should be given half a teaspoon of powdered liquorice mixed with the same quantity of honey.

The use of barley water has proved beneficial for the troublesome cough in measles. This water should be taken frequently, sweetened with the newly-drawn oil of sweet almonds.

The seeds of the egg plant are a stimulant. Intake of half to one gram of these seeds daily for three days will help develop immunity against measles for one year.

As the condition improves, the child can be placed on an all-fruit diet for a few days. Thereafter he may be allowed to gradually embark upon a well-balanced diet.

The child should be kept in a well-ventilated room. As light has a detrimental effect upon the eyes during measles because of the weakened condition of the external eye tissues, the child should have his eyes shaded or the room should have subdued light.

The treatment should aim at bringing down the temperature and eliminating the toxins from the system. This can be achieved by administration of a warm-water enema every morning, application of mud packs on the abdomen twice a day - in the morning and evening, and repeated application of chest packs. Lukewarm water baths can be given every day to ease itching. Addition of extracts of neem leaves to this water will prove beneficial.

Children having measles should not be allowed to mix with others so as to avoid passing on the infection to them. In fact, they should take complete rest. Hygienic conditions, along with the above-mentioned treatment, will lead to a speedy recovery.

Medication should be strictly avoided.

CHEMICALS AND TOXINS IN OUR MODERN WORLD

Check this out and check out the blog it originated from:

CHEMICALS AND TOXINS IN OUR MODERN WORLD
by: Dr. Gary Young

Dr. Gary Young is a leading researcher of essential oils in North America and founder and president of Young Living Essential Oils Company. Dr. Young is one of the world's largest producers and distributors of organically grown therapeutic-grade essential oils. On his farms in Idaho and Utah, he grows and distills his own essential oils. He designed all the harvesting, cultivating and planting equipment himself and has the largest privately owned distilleries in the world, producing the finest quality oils that have been produced in the world bar none. After an injury confined him to a wheelchair, he entered a search for natural healing methods and not only healed himself, but discovered life-changing principles, which have opened up healing doors to countless others.

TOXINS IN VACCINATIONS DOCUMENTED RESEARCH ON TOXIC EFFECTS OF VACCINES
Most children are vaccinated three times by the time they enter grade school, the first in infancy, the second before kindergarten and then re-vaccination before entering Grade 1. The accumulation of these vaccines is what is killing our children and suppressing their immune systems. Are children dying of vaccinations? Absolutely.

My research team has gone to the courts in various states with court orders under the Freedom of Information Act to get information on vaccine contamination that the universities would not release. These documents show that vaccines reduce our immunity in many important ways because they contain many chemicals and heavy metals like mercury and aluminum which are themselves immune suppressing. Mercury actually causes changes in lymphocyte activity. Epidemics and increase in death rates follow vaccinations in every country.

This information is not unknown to our government agencies. The pharmaceutical companies push these vaccines so they can line their pockets with billions and billions of dollars while these vaccinations are injuring and killing people. Five drug companies made nine vaccines given to millions of American children - they used materials with possible Mad Cow links, and this continued for seven years before they even investigated it! It is terrible what's going on and they are claiming that this is necessary to protect your children. It is nothing but a fraudulent activity against the people.

PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN We must begin to take a stand for our rights and our freedoms. If the people of America knew the truth about vaccines, there would be a great war waged against the medical system for forcing children to be vaccinated. If you love your children, form a coalition and start fighting this. The Consumer Health Organization of Canada is a non-profit organization, and could possibly put a lobbying group together and you folks could donate some money to help this group go to Ottawa and start lobbying for your rights. If you don't start rising up and standing up for your rights, it's only going to get worse. There is nothing I would love to see more than a coalition of people rise up and file a class action suit against these pharmaceutical companies until we take them out.

Show me one place in the Bible where it says, "Go thou unto the pharmacists and be vaccinated!"

There are options or alternative ways to prevent these diseases. There is no reason for vaccinations. If your immune system were not capable of defending you against these diseases, you wouldn't be here in the first place. You have an immune system. God gave it to you and God knew what you were going to deal with when he created this world and created us.

PROGRESSION OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES BEFORE AND AFTER VACCINES I have charts and graphs which show that the many of the infectious diseases we're dealing with today were basically dead in the world until vaccines were re-introduced in the twenties, and vaccines have reawakened many of these diseases and brought them back with a vengeance. After the introduction of a vaccine for any particular disease, after a period of about 5 to 8 years, that particular disease mutates and develops a resistance to the vaccine, and then the disease rate begins to climb.

TUBERCULOSIS Graphs show that the tuberculosis virus itself was on a steady and gradual decline. It was eliminating itself from the world, until they introduced vaccines, and now it's on the rise.

TETANUS The Tetanus vaccine was introduced in the Dominican Republic in l975, and graphs showed a rise in the death rate along with inflammations and immune suppression. Tetanus was on a steady decline until they re-introduced the vaccine.

MEASLES The same thing. Measles eradicated itself and declined steadily until they re-introduced the vaccine for measles and now it's starting to climb again.

DIPHTHERIA Here we see the same thing again. Diphtheria went way up and then it slowly started declining until they introduced the vaccine again and then there was a steady increase. Going back in time, we see that the disease was basically eradicated before the vaccine was introduced.

WHOOPING COUGH When the whooping cough vaccine was introduced, we see a delay period of 5 to 10 years where it has to accumulate in the body, starts suppressing immune function and then the next generation of children are born and whooping cough is on the rise again. This happens in every single case, not just 1 out of 10, but every case.

SCARLET FEVER had declined before the introduction of immunization.

DPT (Diphtheria, Pertussin, Tetanus) This vaccine is given to children within a year after they are born. Almost 50 years ago in 1948 two Harvard Medical School scientists, Randolph Byers and Frederick Moll, along with the FDA, carried out tests on DPT vaccines at Children's Hospital in Boston and concluded that severe neurological problems followed administration of DPT vaccines. The results of the tests were published in Pediatrics, a respected medical journal. They were ignored by the medical and pharmaceutical community, who had a vested financial interest in continuing the practice. In 1976, Charles Manclark, an FDA scientist, remarked that "the DPT vaccine had one of the worst failure rates of any product submitted to the Division of Biologics for testing." In 1992, the Institute of Medicine concluded that evidence is consistant with a casual relationship between DPT and acute encephalopathy. The neurological disorders that we now see are definitely increasing, as are death rates of children under 15 years from vaccines.

Avoid Flu Shots! - ALZHEIMER'S AND THE FLU VACCINE Research by Dr. Hugh Fudenberg, M.D., the world's leading immunogeneticist and 13th most quoted biologist of our times (author of nearly 850 papers in peer reviewed journals), shows that individuals who had five consecutive flu shots between 1970 and l980 (the time of the study) have a ten times higher chance of getting Alzheimer's disease than if they had only one or two or no shots. How much clearer does it have to be? Is Alzheimer's on the rise? How many of you who are 50 and older can remember hearing about Alzheimer's 25 years ago? What happened? When did they start giving flu shots? It's all in the documentation. Dr. Fudenberg claimed that the problem was due to the mercury and aluminum in every flu shot (and most childhood shots as well). The gradual mercury and aluminum buildup in the brain causes cognitive dysfunction. Flu shots contain 25 micrograms of mercury. One microgram is considered toxic. (NVIC International Vaccine Conference, Arlington, VA September, 1997. Hugh Fudenberg, MD, is Founder and Director of Research, Neuro lmmuno Therapeutic Research Foundation.) The Johns Hopkins newsletter, l998, also predicted that Alzheimer's could quadruple in coming years.

ANTHRAX VACCINE sold by BioPort. Documented research shows that the anthrax vaccine is contaminated and in fact it doesn't work. It just destroys your immune system. Everyone gets panicky about anthrax. Have you ever been around a cow or a horse or on a farm? Anthrax is on every farm that exists in the world. So if you have ever been around a cow or a horse and you don't have anthrax, you have a natural immunity to it. So, why worry about being vaccinated? The best and the greatest safeguard you've got in the world is building a strong body and keeping it pure and clean. God said, "My spirit will not dwell in an unclean house."

VACCINE INGREDIENTS The list of ingredients which are the base substances in most vaccinations will make your blood start to boil. Mercury and aluminum, pus and sores of diseased animals. horse serum, calf serum, fecal matter, urine, and macerated cancer cells! Formaldehyde (embalming fluid), a preservative for the vaccine, a known carcinogen; a synthetic phenol, also a carcinogen, that may cause paralysis, convulsions, coma, necrosis and gangrene; Simian monkey virus No. 40 in polio vaccines. These are the major base ingredients that are used to formulate every vaccine. This is what they're putting in you when you get a flu shot and when your children get their vaccinations.

Why would anyone want to put this into their blood?

MERCURY POISONING By age two, American children have received 237 micrograms of mercury through vaccines alone, which far exceeds the EPA safe levels of 1/l0th of a microgram per kilogram per day. It is particularly toxic to infants. At birth they are given Hepatitis B containing 12 micrograms of mercury, 30 times safe levels. At four months, DPT containing 50 micrograms of mercury, 60 times safe levels. At six months, Hepatitis B and polio with 65.2 micrograms of mercury, 78 times above safe levels, and at 15 months another 50 micrograms, 4l times above the safe level. These figures are calculated for an infant's average weight in kilograms for each age. These one-day blasts of mercury are called bolus doses. There has never been any research conducted on the toxicity of such doses. My son is not vaccinated and he will never be. I will fight to the death before I allow it to happen if I have to take him to some foreign island in the South Pacific.

AUTISM is related to mercury poisoning. Mercury is found in every vaccine. Mercury is a potent neurotoxin and infants and young children are very vulnerable to the impacts of mercury because it can affect the developing brain. Dr. Candice Pert, internationally recognized pharmacologist, said that there has been an increase in autism of 500% to 600% in the last ten years. Compared to 20 years ago, there is an increase of 1,000%! And the disease is appearing in certain new forms such as regressive forms of autism where the children are initially fine, but regress when they're about a year and a half old, around the time they get the vaccines. Many mothers believe that the vaccines are responsible.

Editor's Note. WASHINGTON, March 27, 2003/U.S. Newswire. A new study of mercury in childhood vaccines demonstrates that the doses are in excess of the Federal Safety Guidelines and show alarming evidence for a link between these excessive doses of mercury from thimerosal-containing vaccines and neurodevelopment disorders such as autism and speech disorders as well as heart disease. Those are the findings of the study published in the current issue of the peer-reviewed Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons authored by Mark Geier, MD, PhD, President of the Genetic Centers of America and David Geier. The authors also conclude that the U.S. should ban the use of thimerosal in all vaccines. The authors point to exploding rates of autism since introduction of thimerosal in vaccines.

TRAVEL VACCINES I have travelled to just about every country in the world. I haven't been vaccinated yet, and I've never brought a disease back from any of those countries. There are some countries that say they require a vaccination in order to go there, but folks, it's a lie. For example: three years ago, you couldn't get a visa to go to Pakistan as an American unless you were vaccinated, but no vaccination is required from the land of Saudi Arabia , so we flew to Oman and got a visa from Oman to Pakistan.

Your body is a temple of God and when you vaccinate it, you have just violated it with the worst sin on the planet.

How can you be a vessel when you put that deadly poison inside God's temple?

TOXINS IN COSMETICS AND BODY CARE PRODUCTS

Your skin is the largest absorbing organ of the entire body. What you put on your skin will be on it all day long absorbing and going into your blood stream. Folks, if you're not going to eat it, then don't wear it.

Do you brush your teeth with a toothpaste from the drug store? It's cheap, only $l.49. Then you spend the rest of your life going to the dentist paying thousands of dollars, and you wonder why you get flu, head colds, head congestion, failing eyesight and polyps in the nose. A major ingredient in a common standard toothpaste is sodium laurel sulfate which was created for degreasing engines on automobiles. It's a deadly toxic substance. Every single common toothpaste, shampoo, bar soap, shaving foam, after-shave, and lipstick contains sodium laurel sulfate. It is a very cheap material that is the base for most of the other ingredients. Researchers have linked sodium laurel sulfate with major allergies in children.

Another chief ingredient in skin and hair products is propylene glycol. Every single agent in these hair conditioners and other products are deadly chemicals with severe side effects. It's the same thing with shampoo. Sodium laurel sulfate is at the top of the list, and then propylene glycol, and yellow #5, SD&C Red artificial colourings. These are all known allergens. How many people go to the doctor every year and have allergy shots because they have allergies and they don't know why.

Allergies are not a disease. Allergies are nothing more than your body saying, "I'm saturated with all these chemicals! Would you please just take me out and shoot me. I can't deal with it anymore". So it has a reaction. It hopes that you will just stop putting this crap on and into your body. Detoxify your body and your allergies are history.

Diaper ointment contains benzyl alcohol, paraffin, glycerol and propylene glycol. Are these not petrochemicals? Has anybody ever had anti-freeze on their hands? It burns like crazy. Propylene glycol is cheap. It's a stabilizer, a preservative, and it takes up anywhere from 50 to 60% of the ingredient volume! That's what's in your diaper ointment.

Don't put chemicals on your children. Love your children enough to either give them something pure or don't give them anything more than water. Don't let your body get chemicalized and the receptor sites impeded so that you can't replicate healthy living cells.

Become label readers. Start educating yourselves. We don't need chemicals, and we don't need drugs. We need what God created when he created this Earth. He gave us all the tools that we need to sustain life and protect us from these marauding diseases and viruses that have been created by man for money.


ESSENTIAL OIL PRODUCTS ARE EDIBLE I made a hand and body lotion, and every single one of the ingredients can be eaten. You may not like the taste of it, but it may be the healthiest thing that you ingest all day. I use milk protein and phospholipids and amino acids and methionine with amino acids, gluco-proteins and essential oils, lavender, clary sage, lemon, and jasmine, herbal extracts and vitamins in my aroma silk conditioner. You could eat every single item there individually or collectively. I made Tender Tush for our children and for my son Jacob. In reality, I made it for mommies to prevent stretch marks. Women don't have to have stretch marks just because they have babies. When my son was born the first thing I did was cover his little body with frankincense oil and the entire umbilical cord with myrtle oil.

LONGEVITY IN TRADITIONAL CULTURES

Old people in certain primitive countries like Hunza Land, Azerbaijan and Vilcabamba in Equador, were able to live to l40 and l60 years of age because they knew a few secrets. These people don't vaccinate their children. They don't take flu vaccines. They don't run to the doctor and the hospital every time the wind blows sideways. They do the things that they were taught by their ancestors. If they start feeling a little sick, they go off some food. Ever watch a dog when he gets sick? What does he do? He quits eating and he goes and starts eating grass. But what do we do when we get sick? Go to the hospital and get treated with jello and ice cream and 7-Up with seven teaspoons of sugar.

I visited these cultures and met people 100, 140, 160 years of age without a single thing wrong with them, still able to read the newspaper without glasses. All the people I met in these countries were farmers. They work and labour in the fields, chopping wood, milking cows, scrubbing clothes, moving the lymphatic fluid. They're still farming the old way, with a hand scythe, with horses or donkeys or oxen and they don't use chemicals. Chemicals are what's killing all of us. They're exercising, not a half-hour a day at the gym, but all day long, and the exercise stimulates the production of Human Growth Hormone. These people never had colds or coughs in their entire lives. Their eyes are bright, their skin is clear. They go mountain climbing at 130.

There are no secrets but there are lost and forgotten ways of life. In every country that I have visited, these old people all practiced fasting every year in the springtime for 30 days. It's not a total fast. They fast from daylight until dark and then they drink juices or eat fruit or vegetable soup during the evening.

During fasting, Human Growth Hormone secretes more than at any other time of your life. The only exception is during strength training where your body will produce even more Human Growth Hormone. Human growth hormone is the modulator for the immune system to keep you healthy and vital.


The other thing that is really critical is they eat foods that contain phos-phatidylserine compounds that are found in soy and foods that are high in Vitamin C.

The Inner Mongolian people actually have the longest history of continual longevity. One thousand years ago, their life expectancy was 120 years. Today their life expectancy is 120 years. It is the only country left in the world where the life expectancy has not declined with the introduction of the American diet. In Hunza Land, their life expectancy has dropped from 160 years to under l00 years. When I was there last year, all of the old people that I had met years ago were all dead. There are no more old people in Hunza Land and never will be ever again. The children had runny noses and were drinking soda pop. The great-great- great grandparents had never tasted soda pop in their lives. They wouldn't touch it, and it tore their hearts out to see their grandchildren and great-grandchildren eating these things they knew would kill them.

* * * ESSENTIAL OILS:

NATURAL IMMUNE BOOSTERS WITH ANTI-INFECTIOUS PROPERTIES

Essential oils were man's first medicine and they were used thousands of years ago. For many years, I believed that herbs were man's first medicine, but recent discoveries from Egyptian and Chinese scrolls show that oils were actually our first medicine. Herbs evolved as medicine when the peasants and slaves observed royalty using the oils with great success. Since they were restricted from using the oils, they started boiling and steeping the herbs and making teas and poultices.

Open your Bible to the book of Exodus and read about essential oils. Throughout the Bible it talks of these various oils and how they were used to protect the people. Hyssop is anti-viral and was used for cleansing the lepers and healing leprosy. Over 40 biblical references are written on hyssop alone. The garments smelled of myrrh and aloe which was sandalwood, not aloe vera. These oils contained anti-viral, anti-fungal and immune stimulating properties.

STIMULATING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM Breathing an essential oil is very effective and can stimulate the immune system. Less volatile oils with heavier molecular weights like myrrh and frankincense remain much longer in the nasal cavity. Many oils, particularly those containing sesquiterpenes and phenols that are high in oxygen, will increase the oxygen around the pituitary and pineal glands as much as 28%.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY Essential oils like methyl salicylate found in birch and wintergreen are highly anti-inflammatory.Thymol found in thyme bulgaris is 20 times stronger than phenol. Phenol carries one oxygen molecule and is found in many of the oils, but methyl salicylate carries two more.

ESSENTIAL OILS ARE ANTIBACTERIAL, ANTIFUNGAL AND ANTIVIRAL The essential oil works solely as the plant's immune defense-mechanism. They fight infection; they are antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral. Because essential oils have such a strong action against bacteria, viruses and fungus, they are highly effective against the viruses that are facing us today. Research in universities around the world has never found a virus that can mutate in the presence of certain essential oils, particularly oils high in limonene and phenols. Grapefruit has the highest amount of limonenes. Also orange, tangerines, mandarin, lemon and white fir. Limonene which is a very potent anti-viral is now being studied at the University of Wisconsin as a cancer fighting agent by Dr. Michael Gould. Results show that it reversed breast cancer and reduced tumour growth by as much as 40% in laboratory animals. (Haag, J.D. and Gould, M.N. 1994. Mammary carcinoma regression induced by perillyl alcohol, a hydroxylated analog of limonene. Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol. 34:477-483.)

HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE The anterior pituitary secretes two hormones that are very important for immune function: TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) and HGH (Human Growth Hormone). Deprivation of oxygen reduces the secretion of TSH and HGH by the anterior pituitary and increases depression. TSH and HGH play a joint role in modulating the immune function, which is very critical.

Lavender Oil Our lavender field in St. Mary's produces the greatest lavender oil in the world. Lavender oil contains phenols which contain oxygen molecules which increases the Human Growth Hormone outlets in the anterior pituitary. All you have to do is just breathe it. Very, very simple.

Peppermint oil contains phenols. All you have to do is breathe it to increase the secretion of Human Growth Hormone. Human Growth Hormone is produced by the anterior pituitary, is converted in the liver to IGF-l and then goes to the pancreas to support immune function. Peppermint oil also contains sesquiterpenes which increase oxygen activity in the brain. European research shows that sesquiterpenes increase brain oxygen by as much as 21 to 28%.

Lemon oil is anti-infectious and anti-bacterial and has Vitamin P-like action for circulation. It is calming to the nerves and stomach. It is good for diabetes because it helps regulate pancreatic function and insulin production. It is a great disinfectant and should be in the medicine cabinets in all hospitals. It can be used for respiratory infections, insufficient liver function and digestive conditions.

Thyme Oil is a mono-terpene and is very, very high in thymol which contains oxygen molecules that increase oxygen output in the brain. It's anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral and has a wide spectrum of action against fungus and virus. It's a uterine tonic and cardiotonic. Thymol can be used for sinus, osteoarthritis, bronchitis, cystitis, vaginitis, acne, cardiac fatigue, just simple little things.

Cloves have the highest known anti-oxidant properties.

Longevity oil I created this because of its anti-oxidant properties. People in countries that have great longevity eat foods high in anti-oxidants. This oil blend contains thyme, a powerful anti-oxidant which prevents degeneration in the brain, eyes and heart according to research in Scotland and Austria.

Longevity kit - This kit contains ingredients that are essential to supporting Human Growth Hormone output, conversion and assimilation, maintenance of proteins and the activity of enzymes in the body.

Wolfberry Juice is a natural anti-oxidant that has preserved the longevity of people in Inner Mongolia who today have maintained the most consistent life expectancy free of disease. The Natural Science Institute in Beijing, China began a study in 1982 and researchers who went there did not find cancer, arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, MS, or any degenerative disease amongst the people in the villages where Wolfberry was consumed on a daily basis. Wolfberry contains 15% protein by weight and three times as much vitamin C as oranges.

Berry Young Juice One ounce is equivalent to 1/4 to 1/2 a pound of berries. When I went to Inner Mongolia to do my research, people who ate between one-quarter to one-half a pound of Wolfberries daily were disease free and had never experienced disease in eleven generations that we could research.

Ultra Young - is a spray for the bucal cavity with the Wolfberry Lycium Polysaccharide which stimulates the production of Human Growth Hormone.


CORTISOL gets rid of waste. The common factor that allows people to live to be 150 years old disease-free is cortisol and the foods that produce cortisol. But when you're under stress, the cortisol levels increase, and when cortisol is too high it blocks the HGH receptors and therefore depresses the immune function. Three cups of coffee a day will raise your cortisol levels to a high point for 18 hours and suppress your immune system during that time. Seven teaspoons of sugar will increase your cortisol levels by 300 to 400 times. The latest research in the U.S. shows that the average child consumes 40 tsp. of sugar per day. One can of soda pop contains seven to 12 tsp. sugar. Chocolate does the same thing in any form. One 30 mg. tablet of Prozac will double your cortisol levels. Vaccines increase cortisol. Phos-phatidylserine, a compound found in vitamin C in citrus and fruits high in vitamin C works as a natural cortisol blocker.

HOW TO USE THE OILS MOST EFFECTIVELY There are multiple ways. You can diffuse them in the air and inhale them. But the simplest and most effective way is to put one to two drops on the bottom of your feet. morning and night when you get out of bed, after your shower and before you go to bed. You don't need more than three drops of any one of those oils on the bottom of your feet. Peppermint oil can be diffused or you can rub a drop in your nose. Peppermint oil is fantastic for reducing fevers. Nothing that you can find in a pharmacy will break a fever quicker than peppermint oil. Peppermint oil has also been studied as a weight loss control mechanism. It smells good and it's yummy. Breathing peppermint will decrease the desire to eat, because it creates a sensation of being full.

DETOX The chemicals that we put into our bodies interfere with the conversion of cholesterol into hormones. Our research has shown that essential oils, particularly the phenol and thymol families, will literally digest the petrochemicals and clean up those receptor sites so that the hormone can fit into the receptor site and carry out its normal function. Thyme, mountain savory, oregano, lavender, peppermint and lemon oil are very high in phenols.

***SPECIAL NEWS BULLETIN*** ORGANIC FOOD STANDARDS GUTTED WITH ONE STROKE OF THE PRESIDENT'S PEN

In a week when news of the war eclipsed all other news, a small inconspicuous article reported a HUGE change in organic food laws. The article reports that in February, 2003, United States Congress voted to gut the nation's organic food standards, NO LONGER REQUIRING that organic livestock be given feed that is 100% organic.

How could this happen? It took one request by Tom Hensley, vice-president of Fieldale Farms, a large poultry grower in Georgia who found the all-vegetable diet to be "extremely burdensome for chicken producers". He complained that organic grain was too expensive.

The new law allows producers to give their animals conventional feed with antibiotics and pesticides and STILL LABEL THE MEAT ORGANIC.

President Bush signed the measure into law. No discussion, no debate, no consumer input, all for the sake of one large poultry grower wanting to take advantage of the higher prices he could charge for the "organic" label without actually providing anything organic.

College mumps outbreak casts doubt on effectiveness of current 2 shots

By Linda A. Johnson

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Most of the college students who got the mumps in a big outbreak in 2006 had received the recommended two vaccine shots, according to a study that raises questions about whether a new vaccine or another booster shot is needed.
The outbreak was the biggest in the United States since shortly before states began requiring a second shot for youngsters in 1990.
Nearly 6,600 people became sick with the mumps, mostly in eight Midwestern states, and the hardest-hit group was college students ages 18 to 24. Of those in that group who knew whether they had been vaccinated, 84 percent had had two mumps shots, according to the study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state health departments.
That "two-dose vaccine failure" startled public-health experts, who hadn't expected immunity to wane so soon, if at all.
The mumps virus involved was a relatively new strain in the U.S., not the one targeted by the vaccine, although there's evidence from outbreaks elsewhere that the shots work well against the new strain.
The researchers, reporting in today's issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, note that the virus likely came from travelers or students from the United Kingdom, where mumps shots are voluntary and there was a much larger mumps outbreak of the same strain. Many countries don't vaccinate against mumps, so future cases brought from overseas are likely.
"If there's another outbreak, we would evaluate the potential benefit of a third dose to control the outbreak," said researcher Dr. Jane Seward, deputy director of the CDC's viral diseases division.
Mumps is spread by respiratory secretions and saliva among people in close contact, making college students particularly susceptible.
Mumps causes fever and swollen salivary glands in the cheeks. Before the vaccine, complications such as deafness, viral meningitis and testicle inflammation, which can cause sterility, were common, and there were a couple million U.S. cases a year.
Dr. John Bradley, a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics committee on infectious diseases, said his group is talking about possible changes to the vaccine recommendations schedule with CDC and other health agencies. Now two shots are advised, one at 12 to 15 months and the other at age 4 to 6.

Childhood Vaccinations Hoax - Not Effective and at Worst, Harmful
Friday, February 08, 2008 by: Heidi Stevenso

(NaturalNews) It's taken as an article of faith that vaccinations have improved our lifespan. We take our children to the doctor for their injections without question. We think of ourselves as bad parents if we don't. It's simply one of those things that we don't question, as if it's obvious. It's gone so far now that, as has been so well documented on NaturalNews, parents are threatened with prison, and their children are forced to get vaccinations at gunpoint (http://www.NaturalNews.com/021572.html) . Medical tyranny in Texas turns teenage girls into HPV vaccination profit centers.

The reality, as documented by the American Medical Association's own journal (JAMA) in the January 1999 issue, is that there is no connection between death from infectious diseases and vaccinations; that's right, "none".

First, let's look at the dates for when vaccinations were first introduced in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control:

* Measles (one of the Ms of the MMR vaccination): 1963

* Mumps (the other M of the MMR vaccination): 1967

* Chickenpox: 1995

* Diphtheria (the D of the DPT vaccination): First licensed in 1921, but not widely used until the 1930's

* Pertussis (whooping cough, the P of the DPT vaccination): First developed in the 1930's, widely used by the mid-1940's

* Tetanus (the T of the DPT vaccination): First used as a childhood vaccine in the 1940's.

* Rubella (German measles, the R of the MMR vaccination): 1969

There are several others, of course, but they are either too recent to take into account or not truly associated with childhood illnesses, such as smallpox and polio, which are more appropriately considered epidemic diseases.

The JAMA Study

The number of deaths from nine different infectious diseases, in some cases, groups of diseases, were tallied. They are:

* Pneumonia and influenza

* Tuberculosis

* Diphtheria

* Pertussis

* Measles

* Typhoid fever

* Dysentery

* Syphilis

* AIDS

All but AIDS were chosen because they were the most common cause of death by infectious diseases in the first half of the 20th century, with the exception of polio, for which data are not available for all years covered by the study.

Graphs showing numbers of deaths by age, by infectious disease deaths as a whole, by specific infectious diseases, and by all disease causes are shown plotted by time, from 1900 through 1996.

Results of the JAMA Study

With the exception of 1918, when the influenza epidemic struck, the rate of deaths from infectious diseases show a fairly smooth rate of decrease from 1900 through 1980, at which point a slight rate of increase develops. This link shows the associated JAMA graph: ((http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/fu...) .

Deaths graphed by groups of diseases show some variations, but interestingly, the most significant improvements are in typhus and dysentery ((http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/fu...) . Both of these diseases show almost no deaths after 1960. Interestingly, there is no vaccination for dysentery and most people are not vaccinated for typhus.

Tuberculosis rates show a curve similar to the overall infectious disease rate. The death rate from pneumonia and influenza from 1970 through 1996 shows a general increase, in spite of the ongoing vaccinations for influenza and the introduction of pneumonia vaccines in 1977 and 1983.

Diphtheria shows its greatest decrease of deaths prior to 1920. There was a spike in diphtheria deaths during the early 1920's, shortly after the vaccination was introduced, and then the rate of decrease continued as before the vaccination's introduction. Whooping cough (pertussis) and measles showed the same general trend of decrease during the 20th century.

Finally, take a look at the chart for death rates from all disease causes ((http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/fu...) . From 1900 through the 1920's, the infectious disease rate goes down at an impressive pace. This is a time during which there were no vaccinations against childhood diseases. The rate of decrease of deaths from 1940 through 1960 continues at about the same pace. Then, it starts to level out, in spite of the fact that the vast majority of children are vaccinated during this time.

Now, take a look at the same graph showing the death rates from all causes. This should make you nervous. The rate of death from all disease decreases slightly from 1900 through 1920. However, after this, when vaccinations start to be introduced, the death rate from noninfectious causes starts to increase. It isn't a huge amount, but it's definitely there. Most significantly, the increase in death rate from noninfectious causes starts when vaccinations are introduced.

What Can Explain the Reduction in Infectious Disease Rates?

Since it's obvious from the AMA's own documentation that vaccinations have little or no effect on the outcome of infectious disease deaths, then there must be other issues at play. If one looks at the history of the 20th century in the U.S. then it isn't too difficult to see what has changed. This was the era of improved overall hygiene and adequate food.

It was when clean and abundant water became the norm. It was when systems to clean wastes from public water supplies became standard. It was when septic and sewer systems to separate people from disease-producing wastes were introduced. It was a time of relative plenty, when people grew larger because of adequate food. In other words, it was a time of relative wealth and public works for good water and sewage treatment.

This is the most likely reason behind the decrease in infectious diseases, not the medical system's vaunted vaccinations.

Why Are We Vaccinating Against Childhood Diseases?

This is the multi-billion dollar question. Parents usually have their children vaccinated because the idea of not doing it simply doesn't occur. We have been thoroughly indoctrinated with the concept of “deadly” childhood diseases. Yet, there is no documentation showing that death rates from these diseases have been improved by vaccinations. As the data from the AMA itself shows, there is every reason to believe that these vaccinations are not effective, that we need to look to other reasons for the decrease in these disease deaths.

Even more significantly, the AMA's own data shows a possible link between an increase in death coinciding with vaccinations. Whether this is a cause-and-effect link is not proven at this time. However, with the AMA's record of not looking into the effects of vaccinations - of not even requiring that after-effects be reported - it's clear that the allopathic (standard) medical system is not going to sort this out. That leaves us with no option but to assume the worst - that childhood vaccinations not only do little or no good, but they may be doing great harm.

The question, of course, is “Why?” As with any corporate-controlled business (and make no mistake, the medical industry is big business) the answer always goes back to the same thing: money. Filthy lucre. There are millions and billions of dollars, pounds, euros, and other currencies to be made by both the pharmaceutical firms and the doctors themselves.

The Bottom Line

For the medical industry, the bottom line is the bottom line. For each of us and for our children, the bottom line is completely different. It's the quality of our lives. In the end, the only ones who must live with the results of vaccinations are the children and adults whose bodies have been pierced by the needles injecting them.

Addendum

This article focused on the most common childhood vaccines, the ones noted for childhood diseases and also the ones that have existed for the greatest amount of time. However, readers may find the following information about when vaccines have been introduced to be of interest:

* Anthrax: November 20, 2002

* Hepatitis A: HAVRIXR vaccine in 1995, VAQTAR vaccine in 1996

* Hepatitis B: First in 1982; in 1986 a recombinant DNA vaccine issued; in 1989 a second recombinant DNA vaccine issued

* Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b, not a true influenza virus, but a bacterium): First licensed in 1985, but a “new improved” form licensed in 1987

* HPV (Human papillomavirus): June 8, 2006

* Influenza: First introduced in 1945; ongoing updates developed year after year in attempt to keep up with viral changes

* Meningococcus: First in 1974 against one of five major subtypes; others introduced 1981 and 2005 for original subtype and three others; no vaccine exists for fifth subtype (B), which is the cause of 65% of meningitis cases under age 2

* Pneumonia: 1977 for 14 types of bacterial pneumonia; 1983 “improved” vaccine for 23 types of bacteria; a specific vaccine aimed at children under age 2 developed in 2000

* Polio: Jonas Salk killed virus vaccine in 1955; live vaccine in 1961; “enhanced formulation” introduced in 1988. Note that the death rate from polio had already decreased dramatically, to a tiny fraction of where it had been at the beginning of the century, before the vaccine's introduction.

* Rotavirus: February 2006

* Zoster (shingles): May 26, 2006
