At what cost?
Until COVID very few people questioned the vaccine narrative. I certainly didn’t. Looking back, I find that quite incredible. The vaccine narrative should have been questioned for one simple reason. If it sounds too good to be true, it likely isn’t true.
By that I mean vaccines were always sold as a panacea. A cure for everything with no downside. Even after vaccine manufacturers begged for legal liability protection over vaccine injuries no one questioned their safety. Big pharma admitted their products were harming many people, yet the narrative never changed until now. COVID opened a door that vax advocates like Neil Stone are desperately trying to close.
Neil Stone is one of the more aggressive vax advocates on X. He touts the benefits of vaccinations and denies any downside. I don’t know if Neil Stone believes the things he says. He claims to have treated multiple Tetanus patients. The UK has less than 10 tetanus cases per year and more than 329,000 doctors. It is unlikely that Neil Stone has ever seen a case of Tetanus. But maybe he has and maybe he is not a liar. It is possible he believes everything he has written. That doesn’t mean he is right though.
With respect to measles he does not appear to be correct at all. A new study shows that the measles vaccine is not safer than measles. Just not in the way that you might expect.
A 20 yr Japanese study of 100 000 people showed those who had measles had –
• 20% less cardiovascular deaths
• 66% less lymphoma
• 50 % less ovarian
I call this the law of unintended consequences. I see it all the time at work. Many times, we solve a problem only to find our solution has other detrimental effects. Sometimes the side effects are worse than the original problem. That in a nutshell is the problem with the vaccine narrative. It is based on 2 assumptions.
- If disease prevalence gets better, it is due to the vaccine.
- Any side effects are inconsequential.
No one has ever proven the second assumption largely because no one has bothered to look. No one has done a double-blind placebo study of any vaccine. We don’t even know that a single vaccine is safe, so how do we know giving multiple vaccines at the same time is safe? The answer is that we don’t know if what we are doing to children is safe.
Vaccines have been credited with eradicating many diseases. That might even be true; but at what cost?
