Multiple Vaccinations
International Medical Veritas Association





According to the Institute of Medicine (IOM) over the past 2 decades,
the pediatric immunization schedule has grown more complicated. In 1980,
infants received immunizations against 4 diseases; today that number has risen
to 11 diseases. The National Vaccine Information Center indicates that between
1964 and 1992 the U.S. added six new vaccines to the mandatory vaccination
program which already includes multiple vaccines, such as the DPT
(diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus) and MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccines.
Currently, CDC recommends vaccination against 11 vaccine preventable diseases.
One hundred years ago, children received 1 vaccine (the smallpox vaccine). Forty
years ago, children received 5 vaccines routinely (diphtheria, pertussis,
tetanus, polio, and smallpox vaccines) and as many as 8 shots by 2 years of age.
Today, children receive 11 vaccines routinely and as many as 20 shots by 2 years
of age. (See Table 1)



Because some of these vaccines have to be administered more than
once, a child may receive up to 23 shots by the time he or she is 2 years of
age. Depending on the timing, a child might receive up to five shots during one
visit to the doctor. And now with the recent CDC recommendations for childhood
flu shots the number of vaccines rises to 12 and the possible numbers of
injections received by 2 years of age increases by another three shots, some of
which contain full strength thimerosal. Recent national surveys found that 23%
of parents questioned the number of shots recommended for their children, and
25% were concerned that vaccines might weaken the immune system.[i] The
Institute of Medicine agrees stating that "approximately one quarter of parents
believe that infants receive too many vaccines than are good for them."

· In 1900, children received the smallpox vaccine.

The most recent increases in the childhood vaccine schedule are just
the beginning of a series of planned vaccines the pharmaceutical companies have
in store for our children. According to Dr. Thomas Saari, spokesperson for the
AAP, many more vaccines are in the works. In an interview in 2004 he said, "We
project over the next ten years that we'll add one to two new vaccines a
year."[iii] Dr. Andrew Wakefield recently said, "The next few years are likely
to see the introduction of ever greater numbers of vaccines and the possibility
of using combination vaccines containing up to 16 different infectious diseases,
is already being discussed in the US."[iv] In England, the British Health
Ministry has just announced the introduction of a new five in one shot, without
offering extensive proof of its safety.[v]

Health and medical officials assure the public that the practice of
administering as many as nine vaccines in a single day is completely safe. "This
is a mistake." According to Dr. Wakefield, "Everyone accepts that no medical
intervention is without some risk. Instead of issuing blanket assurances, public
health officials should explain and quantify the risks within the context and
limitations of the safety studies that have been performed. Parents understand
risk. Instinctively, they weigh risk every time they send their children to an
adventure playground, or consent to their participation in a contact sport."



Dr. Russell Blaylock, a prominent neurosurgeon in the United States
is one of the first to warn against the dangers of too many vaccines given
simultaneously. He says, "Vaccine complications increase dramatically when given
close together. To give the immune system time to settle down, vaccines should
be separated by six months in children and perhaps longer in adults." He
continues, "The number of vaccinations that can be given safely in a lifetime is
not unlimited. Many of these vaccinations need to be abandoned."

An unlimited number of vaccines cannot be given safely,
and the more vaccines given, the greater the risk of substantial harm.
Dr.
Russell Blaylock[vi]

Some physicians and scientists are now starting to point to the
scheduling of multiple vaccines as possibly playing an important role in many
emerging illnesses yet parents and physicians are still being assured of their
safety. For instance, autoimmune illnesses, chronic allergies and other
conditions are rising at alarming rates. According to the CDC, asthma has
increased 52% in persons between the ages of 5 and 34, and rates of death due to
asthma have risen 42% in the period between 1982 and 1992.[vii] A more recent
study by the CDC indicates that asthma has doubled during the last 20 years and
is now the most common disorder in children and adolescents.

The incidence of childhood asthma, diabetes, and
autoimmune diseases has doubled during the past 20 years;
Attention Deficit Disorder has tripled, Autism has increased 600%.
What part have vaccines played?

Stanley Monteith, M.D.

"A critical point, which is never mentioned by those advocating
mandatory vaccination of children is that children's health has declined
significantly since 1960 when vaccines began to be widely used. According to the
National Health Interview Survey conducted annually by the National Center for
Health Statistics since 1957, a shocking 31% of U.S. children today have a
chronic health problem, 18% of children require special health care or related
services and 6.7% of children have a significant disability due to a chronic
physical or mental condition. Respiratory allergies, asthma and learning
disabilities are the most common of these," wrote Philip Incao, M.D. He
continued, "Since vaccinations have a lasting effect on the immune system, and
since it is known that many vaccines shift the balance of the immune system away
from its acutely-reacting "Th1" side and toward its chronically-reacting "Th2"
side it is a very plausible scenario that vaccines are contributing greatly to
the large-scale and unprecedented increase in chronic conditions such as
allergies, asthma, diabetes and a wide range of neurological dysfunctions
including learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder, seizures and autism
in U.S. children today." [viii]

"A single vaccine given to a six-pound newborn is the equivalent of
giving a 180 lb. adult 30 vaccinations on the same day. Include in this the
toxic effects of high levels of mercury, aluminum and formaldehyde contained in
some vaccines, and the synergist toxicity is increased to unknown levels.
Further, it is known that infants do not produce significant levels of bile or
have adult renal capacity for several months after birth. Bilary transport is
the major biochemical route by which mercury is removed from the body, and
infants cannot do this very well. They also do not possess the renal (kidney)
capacity to remove aluminum. Additionally, mercury is a well-known inhibitor of
kidney function," wrote Dr. Boyd Haley.[ix] In the article Mercury Rising, Dr.
Gregory V. Stajich says, "Vaccines are the only class of medication that are
given to neonates without making dosing adjustments based on their weight."[x]
This is a serious oversight and with this alone we can begin to see why we have
a medical disaster in the making when doctors and medical authorities are
recommending a ten-pound baby be injected with not one but up to what could now
be ten vaccines at a single visit. There is not a doctor or nurse alive who
would accept what a child receives adjusted up to their body weight.

In reality there are no long-term studies on the non-specific
negative long-term effects on health of early multiple vaccinations.

The key question, when reviewing the safety of multiple vaccinations
is whether the studies used, as the foundational basis for injecting babies
repeatedly on the same day, hold the necessary scientific rigor to be used with
confidence. There are gapping flaws in these studies, riddled as they are with
conflicts of interest, which seriously compromise the positions taken by the
world's medical organizations. Dr. Wakefield reminds us, "Vaccines are a
multi-billion pound business and drug companies, with their powerful political
connections, are perceived by many as pursuing vaccine development in the
private, and not the public interest". "During the 1990s, medical school faculty
entered into other lucrative financial arrangements with drug companies, as did
their parent institutions. One of the results has been a growing pro-industry
bias in medical research - exactly where such bias doesn't belong," wrote Dr.
Marcia Angell in her recent book The Truth about Drug Companies. Dr. Angell
talks about the fantastic wealth, power and profit the pharmaceuticals wield. It
is in their, and all who are connected to their interests, to favor increases in
the numbers of vaccines given to children, whether safe or not.

According to the Washington Post, "One of every dozen U.S. children
and teenagers -- 5.2 million -- has a physical or mental disability, according
to new figures from the 2000 Census. The figures covered children ages 5 to 20.
For people of all ages, the census counted 50 million disabled nationally, and
more than 740,000 in the Washington area. Specialists say the census numbers
probably understate the disability rate by not including people with mild
problems."[xi]

It is not a far fetched idea that vaccines, which
have been increasing in number, and given simultaneously
are at the heart of medical catastrophe.

The greatest oversight of the studies used by medical authorities to
assure the public of the safety of multiple vaccinations is their lack of
allowance for time. None of the studies used to determine the safety of multiple
injections have sufficient time frames factored into their research
designs.[xii] The vast majority of published studies of vaccine reactions
included a follow-up of up to only 48 hours. This conveniently excludes about
90% of reactions to vaccination. A group of vaccines administered can strongly
damage a few within days, but other kids show collateral damages weeks or months
afterwards. When it comes to the complicated effects of vaccines on the immune
and nervous systems it takes time for the toxins in vaccines to do their damage.
Yes it is true that some infants react within minutes or hours and die in their
cribs or in their parent's arms. But the greater and more common effects are
slow in their oncoming manifestation. Most vaccine reactions are delayed, many
starting only 2-3 weeks after vaccination thus most of the studies used by the
vaccine researchers to establish safety do not reflect on the realities of the
long term dangers. For medical officials not to measure these effects in their
research designs undermines our entire confidence and security in the childhood
immunization schedule. More and more doctors are joining in worrying that the
present course set by medical officials will succeed in completely destroying
confidence in the public health systems.

Current vaccine programs call for repeated, multiple vaccines during
infancy,
at a time when the immune system is immature and underdeveloped.
Most harm from vaccine programs is probably indirect,
not having immediate side effects, but lowering the body's
resistance through subtle immune malfunction.

Dr. Harold Buttram[xiii]

The CDC says that simultaneously applied vaccines carry no great risk
for adverse side effects. On this issue they present a case that does not stand
up to scrutiny. Even the AMA admits that the IOM examined studies looking at
multiple vaccinations and their potential to cause allergic diseases that
suggested that "certain vaccines increase the risk of developing allergic
disorders."[xiv] It makes medical sense to assume that the risks of each vaccine
are compounded in the face of other vaccines when given simultaneously together.

Children that have received multiple vaccines are at risk for autism,
attention
deficit disorder (ADD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
It is now estimated that at least two million children in the United
States have these disorders,
and by 1995 there were over 1.5 million children taking Ritalin as a
treatment for these disorders.

Dr. Garth Nicolson & Dr. Nancy Nicolson

Institute for Molecular Medicine

The IOM says, "A review of the possible biological mechanisms for any
adverse effects of multiple immunizations on immune function does not support
the hypothesis that the infant immune system is inherently incapable of handling
the number of vaccines presented during routine immunization scheduling."[xv]
Yet, "Since the beginning of laboratory investigation of vaccines, researchers
have known that immune system dysfunction can follow vaccination," says Dr.
Harrold Buttram. One of the most important clues to the nature of immune
malfunction following vaccines appeared in a report from Vienna entitled,
Abnormal T-lymphocyte Subpopulations in Healthy Subjects after Tetanus Booster
Immunizations.[xvi] The studies were conducted to determine the effects of
booster vaccination with tentanus toxoid on the ratio of the
helper-to-suppressor T-lymphocytes of healthy adults. Indirect
immunofluroescence evaluations of T- lymphocyte from blood samples taken before
and after booster vaccination revealed a temporary drop, in each subject, in the
helper/suppressor ratio after vaccination. The largest drop occurred three to
fourteen days post vaccination, with four of the eleven subjects demonstrating
ratios of 1.0 or less. The report pointed out that similar drops in
helper/suppressor ratios, to less than 1.0, are characteristic of acquired
immune syndrome (AIDS).[xvii] Though little follow research has been funded in
this direction, medical reason could conclude that the more vaccines given in a
single day the greater the immune suppression and the greater the possibility
for adverse reactions.

And that's exactly what other studies tend to suggest. The
tolerability of multiple vaccinations in travel medicine, for example, indicates
that the above reasoning is correct. Dr. Borner, Muhlberger, and Jelinek at the
Department of Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine at the University of
Munich, Germany, in a study of 1,183 healthy travelers, found that in travelers
with double vaccinations, side effects occurred in 36.7% of vaccinees, triple
vaccinations in 40.3%, in more than three vaccinations, 50.0%.[xviii] These
researchers reported that, "Results showed an increase of the overall frequency
of side effects with an increasing number of simultaneously applied vaccines."
It seems the CDC has a short memory for in the early eighties they themselves
checked over 700 Peace Corps volunteers who had received the human diploid cell
rabies vaccine (HDCV) and found that one-half responded in an immunologically
weak way to the vaccine. According to Dr. Buttram, the CDC postulated that a
weakened immune system response to HDCV (and thus death to one unfortunate Peace
Corps volunteer after rabies exposure) resulted from immunological "interference
with a host response by multiple immunizations."[xix]

They are giving more and more vaccinations to children
in one session, but they seem to be saying there is no
evidence that this will overwhelm a child's immune system.
There is no evidence because they have not looked for it.[xx]

Dr. Andrew Wakefield

Dr. Russell Blaylock states, "The timing of the vaccinations
determines the clinical picture. Multiple vaccinations are being given to
children at one office visit-as many as 9 at a time. This combined
antigen-adjuvant overload produces intense brain microglial activation."[xxi]
The time of life that children are hit with multiple numbers of vaccines is
critical. The present vaccine schedule in many countries starts at birth and
continues at regular intervals through the first and second years of life with
increasing numbers of shots administered on the same days because of the
increasing number of vaccines added to the basic childhood immunization
schedule. "It should be obvious that this period of early infancy is one of
extreme susceptibility, with effects far greater than would result in later life
when various organ systems are more developed and stabilized," wrote Dr. Buttram

Receiving multiple vaccines in a short period of time can cause
immune suppression, and such individuals may be at much higher risk
for opportunistic infections than a similar un-immunized population.
Dr.
Garth Nicolson & Dr. Nancy Nicolson

A doctor or health official would be lying if they said that the
typical array of vaccines given together does not collectively consist of many
toxic compounds. For instance if we added the basic chemicals used in a common
list of vaccines given together we have a list of the following compounds:

DTaP
Each dose (0.5 mL) contains 0.625 mg aluminum; 25 Diphtheria toxoid;
10 tetanus toxoid; 25 m g pertussis toxin; 25 m g filamentous hemagglutinin; 8 m
g pertacin; 2.5 mg
2-phenoxyethanol; 4.5 mg sodium chloride; and 0.1 mg formaldehyde.

Hepatitis B
(Comvax)
Each dose (0.5 mL) contains 0.25 mg aluminum; 10 m g of hepatitis B
antigen; 4.5 mg sodium chloride; 0.49 mg disodium phosphate dihydrate; and 0.35
mg sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate.

Haemophilus
Influenzae (Hib)
Each dose (0.5 mL of 0.4% sodium chloride solution) contains 10 m g
of purified Haemophilus capsular polysaccharide.

Inactivated
Polio Vaccine
(IPV)
Each 0.5 mL dose contains 40 D antigen units of type 1, 8 D antigen
units of type 2, and 32 D antigen units of type 3 poliovirus. Also present are
0.5% of 2-phenoxyethanol and 0.02% of formaldehyde (Preservatives), 5 mg
neomycin, 200 mg streptomycin, and 25 mg polymyxin.

Pneumococcal
vaccine
(Prevnar)
Each dose (0.5 mL of vaccine) contains a mixture of purified
polysaccharides of 23most prevalent or invasive pneumococcal types of
Streptococcus pneumonia dissolved in isotonic saline solution containing 0.25%
phenol as preservative.

Until recently in the United States, and still in many parts of the world,
several of these vaccines contained strong doses of thimerosal, a highly toxic
mercury preservative, besides the above list of other toxic and potentially
damaging chemical substances. The presence of thimerosal, even with only trace
amounts present, threatens the safety of vaccines. The damaging effects of the
mercury in thimerosal (proven by itself to destroy neurons) increases
dramatically its effects when mixed with other chemicals especially aluminum.
[xxiii]

Conveniently the CDC, AMA, and IOM information bulletins about the
safety of multiple vaccine shots do not mention this list. There are no specific
studies that measure the long-term effects of such a chemical cocktail. The
nature of individual toxins usually covers a wide spectrum of collateral damages
but when mixed together it's anyone's guess to what the ill effects will be.
Since there are no long-term studies we must look to the open population and
ascertain what is actually happening to the children subjected to vaccines given
simultaneously. What we run into is autism, which has grown in leaps and bounds
as the basic vaccine schedule has expanded. Also we see deterioration in the
general health of children as mentioned above, measured, by the increasing
incidents of childhood cancer, asthma and diabetes.

"Few published studies on vaccine effects include before-and-after
studies of immune parameters or brain function studies such as
electroencephalograms, or long-term safety monitoring. Inadequate consideration
has been given to the additive or synergistic adverse effects of multiple
simultaneous vaccines, although in the case of toxic chemicals, two compounds
together may be 10 times more toxic than either separately, or 3 compounds 100
times more toxic," says Dr. Buttram.[xxiv] What is most obviously dangerous
about multiple vaccines is the clear and immanent danger of mercury, in the form
of thimerosal, which when given in higher and higher doses because of multiple
shots, clearly passes federal safety guidelines for safety. The higher the
amount administered the more overloaded the body becomes because of its limited
ability to eliminate mercury. Medical authorities have never factored into their
safety studies the most recent revelations that indicate that children vary
greatly in their capacity to eliminate mercury from the body because of genetic
dispositions.

Many "vaccine adjuvants contain surface-active agents, but the
immunological roles played by these components have been essentially ignored,"
reports Dr. Y.W. Yang who did studies that demonstrated that vaccine adjuvants
have apoptotic and necrotic effects.[xxv] Dr. Russell Blaylock confirms this
saying, "Several things can activate microglia, including pesticides, MSG,
viruses, mycroplasma, bacteria, stress, aluminum, mercury, and immune
adjuvants."[xxvi] "In the case of multiple vaccinations over a short period of
time, something worse happens: the adjuvants activate the nervous system's
special immune cells, the microglia. Microlglia cells are dispersed throughout
the nervous system. Normally, they lie dormant. When activated, they can migrate
throughout the brain, secreting very powerful toxins, free radicals and immune
related chemicals (cytokines)" continues Blaylock.

Dr. Neal Halsey of the Institute for Vaccine Safety says, "The risks of
serious consequences following vaccines are many hundreds or thousands of times
less likely than the risks associated with the diseases that the vaccines
protect against."[xxvii] Dr. Philip Incao says something different. "The present
growing distrust of vaccinations by concerned parents nationwide is a grassroots
movement that will not go away, because it springs from a very real source: from
a frequency of acute and chronic adverse effects of vaccinations far greater
than is being officially acknowledged."[xxviii]

Every year, between 12,000 and 14,000 reports of adverse vaccine
reactions are filed with the FDA. These include hospitalizations, permanent
brain damage, and death. The FDA estimates that this figure may represent just
10 percent of the true damage being done.[xxix]

As of the end of 2002, the VAERS system contained 244,424 total
reports of possible reactions to vaccines, including 99,145 emergency room
visits, 5,149 life-threatening reactions, 27,925 hospitalizations, 5,775
disabilities, and 5,309 deaths[xxxi], according to data compiled by Dr. Mark
Geier, a vaccine researcher in Silver Spring, Md. The data represents roughly 1
billion doses of vaccines, according to Geier. Dr. J. Anthony Morris, former
Chief Vaccine Control Officer at the US Federal Drug Administration agrees that
such evidence has great bearing on the entire vaccination question saying,
"There is a great deal of evidence to prove that immunization of children does
more harm than good".[xxxii]

According to Dr. David Kessler, former head of the Food and Drug
Administration, "Only about 10 percent of serious events [adverse drug
reactions] are reported to the FDA."[xxxiii] If we this as a rule of thumb the

The official statistics do not touch upon the tragedy of infants found
dead in their cribs, or other babies thought to be shaken to death by their
parents - outcomes that sometimes were later attributed to adverse vaccine
reactions. These estimates also do not reflect the abominable situation in third
world countries, where immunization is forced on sick and malnourished children
who already have compromised immune systems. People with normal healthy immune
systems are less prone to complications and reactions from vaccines. It used to
be, according to Dr. Russell Baylock, "accepted by most authorities that
vaccines should not be given to individuals with impaired immunity for fear of
triggering immune attacks on the central nervous system such as encephalitis,
nerve injuries (peripheral neuropathy), multiple sclerosis and allergic
encephalomyelitis."[xxxiv] But in practice we know this is hardly the case
anymore and in many clinics around the world when a child is brought in, they
are bombarded with the full spread of vaccines available no matter what the
condition is of their immune system.



Dr. Paul Offit states that, "The young infant is fully capable of
generating protective humoral and cellular immune responses to multiple vaccines
simultaneously."[xxxv] Dr. Wakefield reported recently that a Dr Salisbury in
England stated on television, "Without any medical or scientific basis in fact,
that children could safely be given 1,000 vaccines at once. Dr Salisbury's
transparent confusion of fact with personal opinion reflects a failure to grasp
that for adverse reactions with combination vaccines, the risk of the whole is
likely to be greater than the sum of the parts. This is particularly the case
with live viral vaccines where interference between viruses has the potential to
alter risk profoundly."[xxxvi]Dr. Buttram reminds us, "Any suppression of the
helper T-lymphocytes during this time, even of a transient nature, would
certainly be undesirable. What is known is that an AIDS-like reduced
T-lymphocyte ratio has been described in young children and may be the cause of
transient hypogammagolbulinemia of infancy.[xxxvii] As yet unresolved is the
role of vaccines given in infancy in producing this immunological
disorder."[xxxviii]



"There is plenty of evidence to suggest that over stimulation of the
systemic immune system as by repeated inoculations spaced close together, can
result in chronic activation of brain microglia, the nervous system's immune
mechanism. Gulf War veterans were exposed to as many as 17 inoculations over a
very short period of time. Such over stimulation of the systemic immunity,
either in children receiving a multitude of inoculations to their immune system,
or adults in the military who are subjected to aggressive short term inoculation
programs speeded up as troops prepare for war, can produce deleterious effects
on the nervous system function, including neurodegeneration," states Dr.
Blaylock. After the Persian Gulf War, more than 150,000 veterans came down with
Gulf War illnesses (GWI), chronic fatiguing illnesses similar to CFS or myalgic
encephomyelitis. Dr. William F. Baumzweiger said, "A combination of exposures to
biohazards in the Gulf and multiple vaccinations were among the core causes," of
Gulf War Syndrome (GWS).

Speaking of the common grounds between autism and GWS Dr. Blaylock
says, "Both syndromes manifest an impaired peripheral immune system, a possible
consequence of excessive vaccination itself, neurotoxic vaccine additives
(aluminum and mercury), and immune-suppressive viruses such as the measles
virus. This should serve as a caution to those who would add even more vaccines
to a schedule already too crowded, as well as an indication to reassess the
current schedule."[xxxix]

The most likely sources for the immune disturbances and chronic
bacterial infections found in GWI patients are the multiple
vaccines that were used in a short period during deployment.[xl]
Dr.
Garth Nicolson

Medically the truth is that vaccines are administered simultaneously
for convenience not safety, because medical policymakers realize that the number
of visits to a healthcare provider (for vaccines) is an impediment to receiving
all the recommended shots. The CDC talks about, "two practical factors in favor
of giving a child several vaccinations during the same visit. First, we want to
immunize children as early as possible to give them protection during the
vulnerable early months of their lives. This generally means giving inactivated
vaccines beginning at 2 months and live vaccines at 12 months. The various
vaccine doses thus tend to fall due at the same time. Second, giving several
vaccinations at the same time will mean fewer office visits for vaccinations,
which saves parents both time and money and may be less traumatic for the
child."

"Our beautiful daughter was born in February and died in April.
What was unusual was that on the day that she died, I had taken her
to the military base hospital for her two-month checkup.
The doctor told me that she was just perfect.
Then the doctor said that she needed four shots.
I replied Four! She assured me that it was completely normal
and that it was better to give her all at such an early age.
That evening after feeding her, we laid her down to sleep
and checked on her 45 minutes later. She was dead.
After three weeks we finally got an answer from the autopsy
that it was indeed SIDS. To this day I believe that it was the shots
and no one can convince me otherwise."[xli]

The nation and the world are faced with a crisis in medicine that is
perilously close to an emergency. The childhood immunization program, due to the
vast increase in injections (containing mercury and other toxic agents)
simultaneously given is threatening to be a fiasco for medical science. It is an
unfolding catastrophe without any comparison. The growing chorus of criticism
here and around the world from scientists and doctors is laying bare the dangers
of a system of recommended injections that statistically are proving to be
directly involved with a sharp increase in autism and other related learning
disorders, as well as sharp increases in asthma and diabetes in the young.



The IOM, CDC, AMA, AAP, WHO, UNICEF and the FDA are proving to be
incompetent and untrustworthy in the areas of immunization, and have endangered
the health of the nation and the world. In a disaster of medical ideology over
reality, medical officials, true believers in pharmaceutically based medicine,
show that they know everything better than everybody else, and the arrogance
born of that certainty has led, step by tragic step, to the present situation
where infants are bombarded with toxic chemicals injected one after another in a
brutal attack on their young immune systems. This medical arrogance has locked
the entire medical establishment around the world into a pre-emptive war on the
health of children while slapping contempt on any physician or scientist that is
courageous enough to stand in their way.

My daughter received three vaccines on one day, the DTP, IPV and Hib.
That night she was very finicky and cried all night.
The next night I put my baby down to sleep but all she would do was cry.
Finally she and I fell asleep from exhaustion.
I woke up in the middle of the night and grabbed my baby
and my heart cried out for she was all blue.
She had died in her sleep.
She was rushed to the hospital in a matter of minutes though
and they worked on her for a while but there was
nothing they could do. My angel was gone.

Death and Disease, Mercury Poisoning, A crisis in Medical and Dental Science.
"In reality medicine has come up with many disease categories, diagnostic labels
that simply hide the truth. Autism is actually a deflection, a way of denying
the very simple truth that most of these children have been poisoned by the use
of mercury in medicine and dental products, as well as by a long list of toxins
flooding the environment. Yes there are complicating factors that need to be
discussed in depth, but as the latest information from California shows, as
mercury levels in vaccines are being reduced there, new reports of autism are
declining."

[xxix] A great factor to consider also in counting iatrogenic deaths is
the fact that many iatrogenic death and disease go unreported. The FDA and the
American College of Physicians and Surgeons believe the majority of adverse drug
or surgical events never get reported because doctors are afraid they will get
sued if they report an error. The general rule of thumb presently used though is
between 10% to 20% percent of serious events getting reported but some people
think even less.

[xxx] The U.S. Government's VAERS Database - Since 1990, the U.S.
Government has collected many thousands of reports of vaccine damage. This
database, called the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) is available
for anyone to download. It can be examined more easily at:
http://www.medalerts.org/vaersdb/

[xxxi] The most denied fact in medicine is that sometimes vaccinations are
lethal injections that do kill infants. In the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting
System (VAERS) there were 1,080 total reports of adverse reactions from
hepatitis B vaccine in 1996 in the 0 to 1 age group, with 47 deaths reported.
"Since July 1990, 17,497 cases of hospitalizations, injuries and deaths in
America following hepatitis B vaccination have been reported to VAERS. This
figure includes 146 deaths in individuals after receiving only hepatitis B
vaccine without any other vaccines, including 73 deaths in children under 14
years old. In 1996 there were 872 serious adverse events in children less than
14 years old. In all, there were 38,600 reports to VAERS concerning adverse
events and 753 reports of death, occurring at all ages, shortly after the
administration of Hepatitis B vaccine. The complications in 745 survivors were
considered life threatening. There were 14,476 Emergency Room visits, and 3,115
patients were hospitalized. 914 patients became disabled and 224 developed
jaundice for this vaccine. In 64% of the deaths under 1, the cause of death was
listed as SIDS. Dr. Harris L. Coulter, said of this, "Crib death" was so
infrequent in the pre-vaccination era that it was not even mentioned in the
statistics, but it started to climb in the 1950s with the spread of mass
vaccination against diseases of childhood."

[xxxii] Morris, Anthony. "There is no evidence that any influenza vaccine
thus far developed is effective in preventing or mitigating any attack of
influenza. The producers of these vaccines know that they are worthless, but
they go on selling them anyway." http://www.vaclib.org/basic/quotes.htm

[xxxiii] Remarks by David Kessler, M.D. Medwatch Health Professionals
Meeting May 4, 1993 "Yet even though reports from health professionals are
critical to protecting the public health, the unfortunate fact is that most
practitioners do not think to report adverse events or product problems that
might be associated with medications, devices or other products regulated by the
FDA. One survey found that barely half of physicians were even aware that FDA
had a reporting program. And according to one study, only one percent of
serious events are reported to the Agency. Meanwhile, up to 11 percent of
hospital admissions may be due to drug reactions, one review article concluded."

[xl] Most deployed personnel received 17 or more vaccines, some probably
experimental and administered without proper informed consent, in a two to three
day period during deployment. In a British study funded by the Department of
Defense and published in the British medical Journal Lancet an association was
found between GWS and the multiple vaccines that were administered to British
veterans. In the U.S. there have been GWS signs and symptoms in personnel who
have received the anthrax vaccine. In some cases this has resulted in chronic
illnesses in as many as 7-10% of personnel receiving the vaccine. These chronic
illnesses, including CFS/ME and other illnesses, are very similar to the
diagnosis of GWS.

In 1999 a British study examined a large number of Gulf War exposures in
large cohorts of British Gulf War and non-deployed Gulf-era veterans, and Bosnia
veterans. They found that "Vaccination against biological warfare and multiple
routine vaccinations were associated with the CDC multi-symptom syndrome in the
Gulf War cohort." The French Ministry of Defense (MOD) also found that "multiple
vaccinations given during the war, particularly those for anthrax, botulinum and
plague, seem associated with an excess of (GWS) signs and symptoms."
