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.”

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:

THE M-M-R VACCINE WEARS OFF / DOES NOT WORK????

I was just looking the frequently ask questions from the NHS about the MMR (MUMPS, MEASLES, RUBELLA) VACCINE and I REALLY have to ask HOW F#CKING STUPID DO THEY THINK WE ARE???? The logic being used is absolutely ABSURD!!!! BELOW ARE A FEW HIGHLIGHTS OF THE STUPIDITY!!!!

How long does protection from MMR last?

It seems to be very long lasting. Virtually everyone (more than 99%) will be protected against measles and rubella for more than 20 years after two doses of MMR.

Protection against mumps after two doses of MMR is a little lower (90-95%) and appears to gradually decline. Mumps in vaccinated people is, however, much less likely to lead to complications such as meningitis or orchitis (painful swelling of the testes) and vaccinated people are less likely to require admission to hospital.

WTF??? MUMPS IS A SELF LIMITED DISEASE AND IS MILDER THE YOUNGER YOU ARE! THE SAME GOES FOR MEASLES! Natural measles gives you life long protection BUT if you notice they claim the MMR protects for over 20 years. I call bullshit on this and think many of the recent outbreaks are from the vaccine wearing off. Yet another reason to seek out the childhood diseases and have them over and done with! Natural immunity is the ONLY immunity!
Take a look at their contradictions on the NHS website and notice that the UK has ONLY the MMR since 1988!!!! Prior to this MUMPS was NOT seen as a big deal, funny how that changes when you can push a vaccine...  ADDING TO THE INSULT IS THE CONTINUED DENIAL OF VACCINE INJURY, I MEAN REALLY WTF... :-( :-( :-(

$$$VACCINES ARE A BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY$$$

One of the BIGGEST LIES used to push vaccines is that vaccine manufacturers make little or no money and that lack of revenue and profit has caused vaccine shortages. HERE IS WHAT THE VACCINE MAKERS MADE IN 2012. Even if they made far less in other years this is billions of dollars in revenue!!!!!!!!! Next time anyone says there is no money in vaccines ask the how billions of dollars in revenue is NOT a lot of money. This is a product, they are trying to sell it, and lets face it FEAR SELLS!!!!! BTW, The vaccines market will be worth $57.8 BILLION by 2019!

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.

This is EVIL! I think I am gonna be SICK!

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION! They are now openly advocating the promotion of vaccines through fear!


"One promising tactic is "social marketing" that promotes immunization based on emotion, rather than medicine's traditional reliance on scientific evidence and authority".


"Once physicians overcome parents' hesitancy, advancing the schedule of dosing may further improve vaccine protection, according to two studies.

In one retrospective cohort study, reducing the interval between doses increased the number of children who got the full immunization regimen"


Novel Strategies to Keep Kids on Vaccination Track

By Crystal Phend, Staff Writer, MedPage Today
Published: May 05, 2009
Reviewed by Robert Jasmer, MD; Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, May 5 -- Childhood immunization may be a victim of its own success, requiring guerilla tactics to get kids in for vaccination and keep them coming back, advocates say.

Vaccination has virtually eliminated some diseases, such as measles, that once killed thousands of children each year, said Matthew M. Davis, M.D., of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and Samir S. Shah, M.D., of Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

But the very rarity of these diseases today makes it easier for parents to dismiss the risk -- and give greater weight to the potential adverse effects of vaccination, they wrote in the May issue of Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine.

Their editorial highlighted several studies in a vaccination-themed journal issue designed to "set the stage for the next phase" in the fight against vaccine-preventable infections.

Action Points

Explain to interested patients that part of the hesitation of parents to vaccinate their children is because of lack of perceived risk of vaccine-preventable disease due to virtual elimination of these diseases.


Note that all the vaccines scheduled for age 2 months can be given at 6 weeks.

One promising tactic is "social marketing" that promotes immunization based on emotion, rather than medicine's traditional reliance on scientific evidence and authority.

The authors say it can counter publicity from antivaccination forces who blame vaccinations for heartbreaking stories of children who develop autism or other problems.

Other strategies highlighted in the journal included:


Advancing the schedule of dosing to encourage parents to bring children in sooner


Pediatric office-based immunization of adults who have contact with young children

A reminder/recall system at pediatric practices to track immunization among high-risk children and help ensure they receive immunizations during times of vaccine shortage

Effective communication, to improve uptake of new vaccines-especially those with cultural sensitivities, such as the human papillomavirus vaccine

Sustained routine vaccination to maintain progress against disparities in vaccine-preventable diseases among American Indian and Alaskan Native children

Social Marketing to Fight Antivaccination Publicity

While unconventional, emotion-based marketing gets at the roots of "immunization hesitancy," according to researchers led by Douglas J. Opel, M.D., of Seattle Children's Hospital and the University of Washington in Seattle.

For example, they noted that heartbreaking individual stories of autism -- purportedly linked to vaccinations -- can be more compelling in swaying public opinion against vaccination than careful scientific studies of large populations of children.

"Multiple studies have found that a compelling story about a single victim is far more likely to move an audience to action than is the use of data," Dr. Opel's group wrote.

So to fight fire with fire, their group described an approach planned by the Washington State Department of Health to increase the state's immunization rate, currently 46th among the states for the standard, 15-dose series.

The social marketing campaign will focus on parents who are expecting or have a child under 24 months old and are unsure whether to immunize their youngsters, or are intentionally delaying immunizations for nonmedical reasons.

Because concerned parents may value empathy, openness, and perceived honesty over medical expertise, the campaign will publicize the experience of a parent whose hesitation to vaccinate led to a child's serious illness with a vaccine-preventable disease.

If possible, it will also include "a recognizable, respected public figure who has personal life experience with vaccine-preventable disease and is willing to advocate for immunization."

Bringing children back sooner for repeat doses

Once physicians overcome parents' hesitancy, advancing the schedule of dosing may further improve vaccine protection, according to two studies.

In one retrospective cohort study, reducing the interval between doses increased the number of children who got the full immunization regimen, and Daniel Bronson-Lowe, Ph.D., and Shoana M. Anderson, M.P.H., both of Arizona Department of Health Services in Phoenix, reported.

They reviewed the Arizona immunization registry for more than 45,000 children who got their initial diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine (DTaP) dose during a statewide pertussis outbreak.

Despite concerns over increasing the number of well-child visits and disrupting other vaccination schedules, reducing the DTaP interval to less than the standard eight weeks improved immunization rates compared with standard dosing as follows:

34% higher likelihood of all three DTaP doses (95% confidence interval 32% to 35%)

27% higher likelihood of all three doses of inactivated polio vaccine (95% CI 25% to 29%)

37% higher likelihood of all three doses of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (95% CI 35% to 39%)

In an editorial, Dr. Shah noted some of the increase in completion rate may have been attributed to parents who saw the risks of nonvaccination more clearly during the outbreak.

But he said noted that that other vaccines typically given at 2 months can be administered at 6 weeks as well.

Indeed, a second retrospective cohort study found that starting pneumococcal conjugate vaccination at 6 weeks of age rather than the standard 2 months could be expected to prevent even more disease.

Katherine A. Poehling, M.D., M.P.H., of Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C., and colleagues studied rates of pneumococcus before pneumococcal conjugate vaccine introduction in eight states.

They projected that earlier administration would reduce invasive pneumococcal disease in infants between 6 weeks and 2 months of age by 39.9% if the vaccine efficacy was 50%, and reduce the incidence by 56.0% and 72.1% at efficacies of 70% and 90%.

"As research for new and more effective vaccines continues, medical personnel must optimize the way they use existing vaccines," Drs. Davis and Shah concluded.

Drs. Davis and Shah reported no conflicts of interest.

One of Dr. Opel's co-authors reported owning a social marketing consulting firm, Social Marketing Services, Inc.

Dr. Bronson-Lowe and Anderson's study was supported by a grant from the CDC. They reported no conflicts of interest.

Dr. Poehling's study was supported by awards from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and by research funds from Roche and Wyeth to one of the co-authors. They reported no conflicts of interest.

Emergency measures are being implemented to halt UK measles outbreak

When will they stop injecting children with this poison?

*****

Emergency measures are being implemented to halt a measles outbreak.

Health chiefs in London have ordered NHS trusts to offer MMR jabs in quick succession amid a surge in measles.

There have been over 200 cases in south east London in the first five months of this year. It comes after a record 1,000 were recorded nationally in 2007.

The Health Protection Agency said it hoped that offering the two jabs within months instead of two years apart would help stem the rise.

Similar steps were taken when there was a high concentration of cases in north London last year.

MEASLES

Measles is a highly infectious virus. It starts with a fever and conjunctivitis before a rash develops

The rash often lasts about a week and other complications can include pneumonia and diarrhoea

The MMR jab is used to immunise children against the disease

Before the triple vaccine was introduced in the late 1980s, there were 20 deaths a year on average in the UK

But since the early 1990s there has just been one in total

It is not known exactly what has caused the rise in cases, but take-up of MMR has struggled to recover from being linked to autism in the 1990s.

At least 95% of children need to have the triple-jab to create herd immunity to stop the disease spreading, but London in particular has struggled to reach that.

About three quarters of children across London have had the first jab which is given to babies at 13 months of age.

The second jab, offered to capture the one in 10 who do not get immunity by the first vaccination, is normally given before children start school.

But the Health Protection Agency has told the six trusts in south east London - Lewisham, Lambeth, Southwark, Bexley, Bromley and Greenwich - to give the second jab one to three months after the first.

Concern

HPA disease control expert Diana McInnes said: "The increase in measles cases is of concern and we know that large numbers of children are still not fully protected.

"In south east London we are encouraging parents to give the second MMR between one to three months after the first dose to protect their children.

"Children's immune systems have a huge capacity and overloading them with the vaccination is not an issue.

"Our main focus is to remind people that they need two doses of the MMR vaccine to be fully protected."

Health officials in Lewisham, which has had some of the highest rates of infection, is running special clinics to get every child under five immunised.

Parents of children between five and 16 who have not had the second jab are also being urged to go to their GP to get the jab.

A Lewisham PCT spokesman warned: "The disease is still spreading, particularly among school-age children."

CDC lies about MEASLES outbreak

More proof the CDC is spinning this outbreak out of control in an effort to scare people into the MMR vaccine. When will the madness end?

Deja Vu: Spinning Measles

by Barbara Loe Fisher


Last week, CDC officials began spinning the significance of 64 cases of measles reported during the past four months in contrast to the 37 to 508 cases of measles reported annually between 1996 and 2006 in the U.S.. One-quarter (14) of the 64 children and adults who got measles in the past four months were hospitalized but there were no deaths.

A CDC press release and Fact Sheet revealed that nearly half of the 64 measles cases occurred in those too young to be vaccinated or whose vaccination status was not known. Only one fifth (14) of the cases were American children whose parents claimed a religious or personal belief exemption. This fact didn't stop CDC officials from trying to blame the measles "outbreaks" on the exemption-takers by stating "These cases and outbreaks resulted primarily from failure to vaccinate, many because of religious or personal belief exemption."

In addition, the CDC made the following undocumented statement: "Before the measles vaccination program, about 3- 4 million persons in the U.S. were infected each year, of whom 400 to 500 died, 48,000 were hospitalized, and another 1,000 developed chronic disability from measles encephalitis." A quick look at the MMWR historical tables shows that the highest number of measles cases reported since 1945 in the U.S. was 763,094 cases reported in 1958.

What is the real story behind the hyping of 64 cases of measles and attempting to demonize parents who have taken religious or personal belief exemptions to vaccination? Are government health officials trying to deflect attention from the reality that even with a 95-100 percent measles vaccine uptake for children entering kindergarten in two- thirds of the states and a 92 to 95 percent vaccine uptake in all but four states, two doses of measles vaccine does not prevent measles from circulating in the population? Are they softening up the public for a future announcement insisting that a third dose of MMR vaccine must be mandated to "eradicate" measles?

After the first measles vaccine was licensed in 1963 and began to be used on a mass basis in the U.S., health officials estimated the herd immunity threshold was as low as 55 percent vaccine coverage in a population receiving one dose of measles vaccine. (free registration to Medscape required, or click here to view the Abstract in Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal. 25(12):1093- 1101, December 2006) When that belief failed to "eradicate"measles, in 1971 the herd immunity estimate was raised to more than 90 percent coverage and the 1977 Childhood Immunization Initiative was launched with an aggressive enforcement of mandatory vaccination laws. However, by 1989 it was obvious that even with a 95 percent plus vaccination rate for children entering kindergarten in most states, measles was still circulating with about 55,000 cases reported between 1989 and 1991.

Without conducting a thorough investigation to find out why there were measles increases between 1989 and 1991 in a highly vaccinated population or why the measles being seen was unusually virulent, CDC officials announced that all children must get a second dose of measles vaccine. But measles infections persisted and, in 1995, the National Vaccine Information Center reported on informed consent violations and child deaths in a large worldwide high titer measles vaccine experiment in which a very potent experimental measles vaccine was given to children under six months old to try to over- ride maternal antibodies. By 1998, eight distinct genetic groups of wild type measles were identified worldwide in vaccinated and unvaccinated populations.

By 2006, vaccine developers had raised the estimated herd immunity coverage rate for measles eradication to between 93 to 95 percent but obviously even that extremely high coverage rate in most states is not enough to do the job. So what comes next? Will the CDC call for the National Guard to go door-to-door armed with syringes containing measles vaccine to make sure there is not one unvaccinated person in the country?

Measles vaccine, which is part of the combination live virus MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccine can cause brain inflammation and permanent brain damage. There have been nearly 45,000 reports of health problems associated with MMR vaccination made to the federal Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) . However, there is gross underreporting to VAERS and it is estimated that, for example, fewer than 4 percent of all cases of thrombocytopenia (potentially fatal blood disorder) following MMR vaccination are ever reported to VAERS.

In 1997, Andrew Wakefield, M.D. and his colleagues published findings indicating that the MMR vaccine may contribute to the development of inflammatory bowel disease and autism in a subset of children, a scientific debate that continues today.

Parents contact the National Vaccine Information Center every week to file MMR vaccine reaction reports in the NVIC Vaccine Reaction Registry and describe how their children are suffering high fevers, seizures, brain inflammation and regression into autism after MMR vaccination. To view some of these reaction reports, go to the International Memorial for Vaccine Victims .

The CDC's one-size-fits-all, no-exceptions MMR vaccine policies allow almost no contraindications to MMR vaccine use. According to the CDC, a child can be sick at the time of vaccination or recovering from an illness; have a fever; be taking antibiotics; have a history of allergies; or have experienced a seizure or regression after a previous MMR shot and still be eligible for more MMR vaccine.

With oppressive "no missed opportunities" vaccination policies in place, it is no wonder more parents are filing religious and personal belief exemptions to vaccination. Some have no other choice, especially if their children have experienced previous serious health problems following vaccination and they cannot find a doctor to write a medical exemption. Others want to choose less toxic alternatives to vaccination to maintain health and wellness.

Non-medical vaccine exemptions for religious and personal beliefs are all that stand between the people and tyranny when doctors inside and outside of government take an extreme, utilitarian approach to infectious disease control and write off vaccine casualties as acceptable losses. Today, 1 in every 6 highly vaccinated American child is learning disabled, 1 in 9 is asthmatic and 1 in 100 to 150 develops autism while measles and other childhood diseases persist no matter how many doses are given or how high the vaccine coverage rate.

It is time for parents and legislators to take a hard look at whether trying to eradicate many diseases with forced use of multiple vaccines is a fundamentally flawed policy that has failed to achieve better individual or public health. It is time for vaccines, which are pharmaceutical products made and sold by corporations for profit, to be subject to the law of supply and demand rather than be financially subsidized and forced by government on the people.

More kids fainting after shots, CDC reports, Sadly they think that's just fine!

Only the CDC would have the nerve to say that fainting after a vaccine is "not in itself dangerous" Do these morons think we are that stupid?

More kids fainting after shots, CDC reports

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An unprecedented number of U.S. youngsters are fainting after getting shots, especially teenage girls, and doctors need to keep an eye on them, federal health experts cautioned on Thursday.

At least 463 people fainted after getting vaccinated during an 18-month period from 2005 to 2007, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.

Such fainting is not uncommon and not in itself dangerous -- but some of the patients hit their heads on the floor and at least one had a car accident, the CDC said in its weekly report on death and disease.

One 15-year-old boy died after hitting his head.

More cases may have been reported lately because of new vaccines -- notably against meningitis and the HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer -- now recommended for adolescents and older children.

Very young children and babies get a battery of vaccinations in the United States, but vaccinations of older children and teens were not as routine until recent years.

"A girl aged 13 years fainted within 10 minutes of receiving HPV and MCV4 (meningitis) vaccinations," the CDC report reads.

"She fell backward and hit her head on the carpeted floor of the clinic." She fractured her skull and had bleeding on the brain but recovered.

"Providers should strongly consider observing patients for 15 minutes after they are vaccinated," the CDC recommended.

Measles in U.S. at Highest Level Since 2001

36 out of 64 were not vaccinated--a little over half. 14 vax status unknown, one had proof of vaccination. What about the other 13? How is 36 "most?

Also, anyone reading this free to point me in the direction of the measles because the CDC is really playing up the scare tactics on this one. As most people know I am a film maker with a long life ahead of me and if I thought for one second they would be as bad as the CDC is trying to say I would not be so willing to catch them as part of my anti vaccine documentary now would I?

Measles in U.S. at Highest Level Since 2001
By DENISE GRADY

Measles outbreaks in at least seven states are expected to produce more cases in 2008 than in any other recent year, federal health officials said Thursday, warning that measles is highly contagious and can cause severe illness and even death.

Most of the cases have occurred in people who were never vaccinated.

There were 64 cases from January through April 25, more than in all of 2006 and the highest number during that four-month period since 2001. None have yet proved fatal, but officials said they expected the total to keep rising.

"We haven't seen the end of this," said Dr. Anne Schuchat, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Fourteen patients, or 22 percent, have been hospitalized, mostly for pneumonia.

The largest outbreak, 22 cases, is under way in New York City, mainly in the Borough Park section of Brooklyn, where it was most likely introduced by travelers from other countries, including Israel and Belgium.

"There may be more cases," said Dr. Jane R. Zucker, assistant commissioner for the Bureau of Immunization in the city's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Dr. Zucker said the New York outbreak was still being investigated.

As in New York, the other outbreaks are occurring because travelers bring the measles virus in from other countries — worldwide there are 20 million cases a year — and spread it to unvaccinated people. The unvaccinated include babies under a year old, who are too young to receive the vaccine, and children and young adults from families who refuse vaccination for personal or religious reasons.

The disease can then keep spreading. Dr. Schuchat said doctors were finding clusters with as many as five generations of transmission. She said many of today's parents, doctors and nurses were unfamiliar with measles and not on the lookout for it.

In 17 cases, patients were infected in clinics and doctors' offices, including a year-old baby who contracted the disease in a pediatrician's office during a routine visit — for a measles shot.

Health officials are warning doctors and nurses to take special precautions to avoid spreading the disease in clinics. Children with fevers and rashes should not sit in waiting rooms, and other children should not be brought into an examining room that a child suspected of having measles has just left, because the virus can linger and remain infectious for about two hours.

In the current outbreak, 13 patients were under a year old and therefore too young to have been vaccinated, and 7 others were 12 to 15 months old, with parents who had not yet taken them for their first vaccination, which is due at 1 year. Sixteen others, who were older, came from families that refused vaccination. Fourteen more had what officials described as "unknown or undocumented vaccination status." Only one person had proof of having received the standard two doses of measles vaccine.

In one family in Washington State, eight siblings came down with measles, and three of them had signs of pneumonia, a serious complication. These cases were reported after April 25 and so are in addition to the 64 described by the disease centers on Thursday.

The eight siblings are believed to have contracted measles at a religious conference attended by about 2,000 people from 5 countries and 19 states. None of the eight had been vaccinated. Forty-eight states allow exemptions from vaccine requirements for religious reasons, and 21 for personal beliefs, the C.D.C. said.

Growing numbers of parents in the United States and other countries have begun refusing to vaccinate their children because of unproven fears that vaccines cause autism or other illnesses. Health officials blame the trend for the resurgence of measles in many regions. Israel, Switzerland, Austria, Ireland and Britain have had large outbreaks recently, linked to pockets of people who shun vaccination.

Given the outbreaks overseas, travelers need to be immunized, Dr. Schuchat emphasized, acknowledging that many people do not think of Europe or Israel as places where they have to worry about catching infectious diseases. Babies who are going to be taken on trips can be given a measles shot at 6 months instead of 1 year, officials said.

People who have not been immunized and have been exposed to measles can often be protected with a vaccination or treatment with immune globulin, but the treatment must be given soon after the exposure. Health departments are supposed to track all the contacts of infected people and advise them about what to do, officials said.

Counting the Washington occurrence, 10 states have measles cases, though only seven have three or more, the disease centers' definition of an outbreak. Besides New York City, the highest numbers are in Pima County in southern Arizona, with 15, and San Diego, with 11. The San Diego and Arizona cases have been traced to travelers from Switzerland. Cases in other states have come from Italy, India and probably China.

The remaining states with cases are Hawaii, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

"I think it's important for states who aren't on that list to have their alerts up," Dr. Schuchat said. "We know there are unimmunized people out there, and measles is extremely infectious. Not being on the list shouldn't be reassuring."

Before 1963, when the vaccine became available in this country, there were three million to four million cases of measles annually. The disease killed 400 to 500 children a year and put 48,000 in the hospital.

The vaccine wiped out transmission here by 2000, but the disease can easily be imported because there are so many cases overseas. Worldwide, measles still kills 242,000 children a year.

A report on the outbreaks is online at cdc.gov.

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.

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.

Why Vaccine Choice Should Concern You

Why Vaccine Choice Should Concern You

By Rev. Kathy Rateliff; CCD, CCCE, SM
Author & trainer, Titus 2 Birthing Curriculums http://www.geocities.com/titus2birthing

Every state in America has exemptions written into their immunization policy that allow parents to choose whether to vaccinate their children and themselves. Those exemptions may include medical, religious and/or philosophical reasons for delaying or refusing immunizations. Additionally, the US Supreme Court has provided legal support for those choosing a religious exemption.

Unfortunately, most parents are never told they have an option and, for many of them, it never occurs to them to look at the issue. Many parents are unaware of the possible side effects of immunizations, toxic substances included in the immunizations, contraindications for various immunizations, or what after effects may appear. Additional concerns may include: how the immune system works, what effects immunizations have on the immature immune systems of babies, at what age the immune system is mature and how that maturing occurs, how reliable immunization efficacy and safety studies are, and how decisions about what vaccines to recommend are made.

Every time I hear a parent express remorse for vaccinating because they didn't have all the facts or because their child was one of the unlucky ones to suffer a serious side effect, it makes me mad that more parents aren't being informed about their choice. I do not believe anyone should live in fear - either of vaccine side effects or disease side effects and complications. Part of my motivation on this web site and in much of my writing and workshop presentations is to provide as much information as I can to as many people as I can.

I often talk to parents who are reluctant to immunize, but feel that they have no options. These parents deserve to be told that they have options, what they are, and how to take advantage of those options. One way of accomplishing this task is to provide parents some ideas about how to find out what the law in their state says and how to fulfill the legal requirements of whatever exemption they may choose to use.

Another way of accomplishing this is to help parents who are willing to take the harder road of vaccine refusal and help them learn what rights they have. Many parents are given erroneous information when they decide to take a religious or philosophical exemption. They may be told that they have to fill out an approved form when there is no such form. They may be told they must submit their religious exemption on church letterhead or with their pastor's signature when they law does not require it. They may be told that they can't take the exemption unless they belong to a specific faith group or if they have ever vaccinated this child or any other child in their home. Generally, none of these things are true, although some states may offer pre-printed immunization exemption wavers if asked.

Some parents who have chosen to vaccinate in the past decide after education to refuse some or all of the vaccines or to pick and choose which vaccines their children will get. Many parents believe it's "an all or nothing" deal. Current religious and philosophical immunization exemptions allow parents to choose to refuse some immunizations while accepting others. These exemptions also allow parents to delay immunizations for a time and allow their children's immune system to mature before joining the ranks of the immunized.

Additionally, as pharmaceutical companies work to create more and more vaccines, the number of shots children are likely to receive increases every couple of years. Guidelines on approved vaccines may change to target a different population to increase the number of possible recipients. So, parents may be confronted with decisions for their own health and that of their aging parents. The possible number of immunizations a person could receive over a lifetime may surpass 100, including original doses, boosters, new recommendations, and annual immunizations like the flu shot.

Most parents don't realize how experimental some of these vaccines are. Most parents would not choose to enroll their children in a treatment that is not adequately tested. They assume these vaccines are proven safe and effective. The controversy over side effects and removal of some vaccines from the recommendation list in the last two years proves that parents aren't getting the whole story. Couple that with the ridicule and pressure that many parents get when they decide to either refuse or delay vaccines, and the support they get from most of the medical community is sadly lacking.

So why is there such furor over the right to choose? Surely if the medical community and the government believe that all vaccines are 100% safe and 100% effective in stopping all incidences of a specific disease in the immunized individual, the only person at risk is the person who is not immunized. Right?? Wrong!! The medical community and the government admit that there are side effects to vaccines, although they would have you to believe that these almost never happen. They also admit that some individuals who have been immunized contract the very disease they have been immunized against. In fact, most of the individuals who contract a "vaccine preventable disease" during an outbreak have been immunized.

As a parent, I am aware of the risk I take in not vaccinating my children or myself! I've researched the data, checked out the risks of both the disease and the vaccine, prayed about it, talked it over with my husband and my children, discussed the issue with more than one family doctor, and finally reached a decision I can live with. We have even had a "where the rubber meets the road" experience where our children have contracted a "vaccine preventable disease." We've also had experience with vaccine side effects from the years before we decided not to vaccinate. I have a much easier time living with the way we experienced the disease than with the way we live with the aftermath of vaccine damage!

And, that really is the final issue! If after all is said and done, can I live with the consequences of my decision? Yes, some people die from disease and some die from the vaccines. Some people sustain life-long damage from the disease and many more sustain life-long damage from the vaccine. As a parent, and as a health-care professional, I have to decide if I can live with the decision I have made when I or my child becomes ill with any of the diseases that currently have vaccines.

Each parent should have the same right to choose. Medical professionals should respect a parent's right to choose and not treat them like they have no brain or like they are trying to hurt their child. Each parent should be provided with both sides of the issue and encouraged to do their own research. Each individual who makes an informed choice to refuse should get the same courtesy given to the individual who decides to vaccinate. And, each individual seeking information on how to claim an exemption should be given accurate information instead of rhetoric and, in some cases, outright lies.

If you decide to fully immunize your child according to the recommended schedule, it's important to realize everyone deserves the right to choose. Whatever consequences, good or bad, occur because of your decision are yours. You, and your child, will be the ones to live with the consequences. Neither your doctor, the pharmaceutical companies, the CDC, the policy makers at the FDA or the officials at your state and local health departments will have to live with the outcome of your choice. Therefore, the choice needs to lie with those who will most experience the benefits and risks of whatever choice made.

There is a quote from World War II in Nazi Germany that seems appropriate here.

In Germany, they came first for the communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists but I didn't speak up because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time nobody was left to speak up. --Martin Niemoeller, Dachau, 1944

The right to choose whether the risks of immunization outweigh benefits must be preserved. Regardless of what choice you make, you have determined which benefits and risks you find most important. Education provides the best and most reliable medium of making choices for you and your family. Make your choice and let others make theirs. Preserve the right to choose by supporting legislation that protects exemptions in all 50 states.

Marketing Poison To Children

I am outraged that these people have the nerve to try and market vaccines to "tweens" Only in America could people create such a stupid marketing term for children, then use it to sell everything from cancer causing "fast food" to cancer and injury inducing vaccines.

I would say more but this sickens me, and when I 1st saw it on several email list the other day I actually thought it was a hoax, I mean I know big pharma and the government is evil but I never thought they would stoop quite this low. What angers / sickens me the most is the fact I actually gave these monster credit for being "human".
