Just the facts.
I could share the story of my son's vaccine injury that made me stop and research vaccines.
But I won't. Not in this post.
This post is just going to be facts and research. The facts and research that isn't being shared.
If you are in favor of vaccines (like I was), please at least skim through this post. I have made it only from respectable research and cases specifically for you.
Let's go through some of the most common points to address about vaccines:
Are Vaccines Effective?
Did they really reduce the prevalence of diseases and outbreaks?
Columbia University reports that there were other factors that were much more responsible for the decline in diseases than vaccinations:
“The main influences on the decline in mortality were improved nutrition. . . reduced exposure (from better hygiene). . . and, less certainly, immunization and therapy on the large number of conditions included in the miscellaneous group. Since these three classes were responsible respectively for nearly half, one-sixth, and one-tenth of the fall in the death rate, it is probably that the advancement in nutrition was the major influence.”

The advancement of nutrition.
How many pediatricians are educated and advising on real nutrition?
So does this mean vaccines aren't effective? Not necessarily. But outbreaks among the vaccinated might.
The following are just a few of many, many outbreaks in the last decade that were among the vaccinated (Some of these are news stories so the links may change/be broken after awhile):
Mumps outbreak sweeps Long Beach; affected residents had already been vaccinated
Study: Whooping cough outbreak linked to vaccinated children
12-month old gets measles after vaccination
4/18/14: Mumps cases at NJ college--all were fully vaccinated
17 Cases of Vaccine Failure Outbreaks
There's something else to consider here.
It is not a secret that some vaccines actually cause and spread the disease they are created to prevent. This is called Secondary Transmission.
It is why ICU departments in hospitals have signs stating that recently-vaccinated should not visit ICU patients.
Johns Hopkins' visitor's guidelines used to include guidelines about the recently-vaccinated with a live virus but has since changed the language since this information was widely dispersed in a way that was not favored by them.
Vaccine packet inserts from the manufacturers state that the recently-vaccinated should not be around the immunocompromised for a period of time. The varicella vaccine packet insert states:
“Avoid contact with high-risk individuals susceptible to varicella because of possible transmission of varicella vaccine virus.”
Click here to read my full post on Secondary Transmission for more information on how vaccines spread disease.
This is very important information for everyone to consider, especially those who continue receiving vaccinations. If part of the intent of receiving vaccinations is to protect the immunocompromised, then understanding the period of shedding for each vaccine is the duty of each vaccine recipient.
Vaccine Efficacy Studies Fraudulent
Former Merck Scientists Sue Merck Alleging MMR Vaccine Efficacy Fraud:
“According to the lawsuit, Merck began a sham testing program in the late 1990’s to hide the declining efficacy of the vaccine. The objective of the fraudulent trials was to “report efficacy of 95% or higher regardless of the vaccine’s true efficacy.””
The Hot Question: Do Vaccines Cause Autism?
Research does show us that there are many possible contributing factors to autism. We have more than adequate evidence in the many research articles above that vaccines are one of those factors.
Are There Risks?
Every parent knows there may be a risk. Parents are handed a CDC flyer with a brief sentence about risks.
But those cute little flyers are only telling parents what they want them to know. Rather than the CDC flyer, I encourage parents (and healthcare workers) to read the entire vaccine packet insert from the manufacturer. This is an extensive fold-out paper that is required to accompany vaccines. Most doctors have not even read them. These detail the risks a bit more in-depth despite the bias as they are from the pharmaceutical companies selling the vaccines.
You don't have to ask your doctor for them; you can go right to the FDA's website and read them yourself.
While those won't tell us the full truth, they are a great starting point. They demonstrate the ingredients (are things like formaldehyde, calf blood, egg protein, monkey DNA, antibiotics, and neurotoxins like MSG and heavy metals things we want to inject into our children??), possible side effects, etc.
Alongside the many papers demonstrating the potential of vaccines to trigger autism that we linked above, there are many more showing the list of other risks as well.
And they're no small beans. They're not the 1 in a million chance that the CDC flyer would like to make you think.
One of the issues that isn't being addressed here is the genetic factors that leave one child more likely to have autism triggered by vaccinations than another child.
There is no genetic testing done first to assess for genetic mutations before vaccinating.
There are no standard procedures to measure intestinal permeability or other factors proven to increase a child's likelihood of adverse effects such as autism from vaccines.
Let's look at just a few of the most common vaccine "side effects" as detailed in research and vaccine packet inserts.
Enceophalopathy
Brain swelling. The classic back-arching, blood-curdling scream so many parents hear from their babies after vaccines that doctors say is normal. This is not normal. And sadly, the medical field KNOWS it's a side effect of vaccines. Use of the pertussis vaccine used to be standard lab protocol to induce encephalopathy in lab rats. (Click here for a research article stating that.)
Here are some research links:
From 2016:
From the journal of Pediatrics:
From Yale:
Let's look at some of the other health problems demonstrated in research to be triggered by vaccines:
Type 1 Diabetes
Exposure to HiB immunization is associated with an increased risk of IDDM.
Food Allergies
“Numerous studies have demonstrated that food proteins contained in vaccines/injections induce food allergy. The IOM’s authoritative report has concluded the same. Allergen quantities in vaccines are unregulated. Today kids are more atopic. The vaccine schedule has increased the number of vaccine shots to 30-40 and up to five vaccines are simultaneously administered to children. Vaccines also contain adjuvants such as aluminum compounds and pertussis toxin that bias towards IgE synthesis. Given these conditions, the predictable and observed outcome is a food allergy epidemic.”
Asthma
Study finds increased likelihood of asthma/wheezing after immunizations
Epilepsy
Death
Christopher--died from flu mist
California Infant Dies after 8 Vaccines less than two days after receiving vaccinations.
Other Proven "Side Effects"
Shingles vaccine found to increase likelihood of alopecia and arthritis.
“There were 1000 cases of GBS reported after vaccination in the United States between 1990 and 2005. Death and disability after the event occurred in 32 (3.2%) and 167 (16.7%) subjects, respectively. The highest number of GBS cases was observed in subjects receiving influenza vaccine followed by hepatitis B vaccine.
CONCLUSIONS:
Our results suggest that vaccines other than influenza vaccine can be associated with GBS. Vaccination-related GBS results in death or disability in one fifth of affected individuals.”
Many doctors will say that they've never seen a vaccine reaction. Click here to read one ER nurse's experience that sheds some light onto that and what he sees in the ER all the time with vaccine reactions.
You can also read through endless reports on the Vaccine Adverse Effects Reporting System (VAERS) on https://vaers.hhs.gov/. I remember reading through some reports when I first was researching and many stood out to me, including one of a pre-pubertal teenage boy whose male reproductive organs had literally atrophied after the HPV vaccine. Wow.
These are just a few of many examples. But here's the most important thing to consider.
In 1986, President Reagan signed a bill into law called the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act that required the creation of a special court and tax to fund vaccine injury and death claims. This act through time and Supreme Court rulings has served to provide financial immunity to vaccine manufacturers and doctors from liability for all injuries for the products they make and sell. Vaccines were deemed “unavoidably unsafe” and the government stepped in to protect the industry. (As we can see from the above chart, recommended vaccine doses dramatically increased since then.)
Here's the important part: NCVIA also required that HHS do ongoing safety studies and present their findings to Congress every two years. Attorney Robert Kennedy Jr. & Del Bigtree filed freedom of information requests to see these studies. Their requests were ignored so they sued. The response was that there are no records to release of a single study or congressional briefing in the last 30 years.
Not a single safety study submitted in 30 years.
When the requirement was that one would need to be submitted every two years.
HHS has admittedly violated the NCVIA.
This should give everyone pause.
What Are the Spiritual Considerations?
We need to address the hot button of abortion in this post too. Why?
BECAUSE VACCINES ARE MADE FROM ABORTED BABIES.
24 vaccines to be exact. 10 that are used in the U.S.
There are two particular fetal cell lines that have been heavily used in vaccine development. They are named according to the laboratory facilities where they were developed.
One cell line is known as WI-38, developed at the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia, PA. The other is MRC-5, developed for the Medical Research Council in England. WI-38 was developed by Dr. Leonard Hayflick in 1962, by taking lung cells from an aborted female baby at approximately the end of the third month of pregnancy. Dr. Hayflick’s article published in the journal Experimental Cell Research states that three cell lines, WI-26, WI-38, WI-44 were all developed from aborted babies.
“This fetus was chosen by Dr. Sven Gard, specifically for this purpose. Both parents are known, and unfortunately for the story, they are married to each other, still alive and well, and living in Stockholm, presumably. The abortion was done because they felt they had too many children. There were no familial diseases in the history of either parent, and no history of cancer specifically in the families.”
The origin of the MCR-5 cell line, created in 1966, is documented in the journal Nature by three British researchers working at the National Institute for Medical Research. They wrote:
“We have developed another strain of cells, also derived from foetal lung tissue, taken from a 14-week male foetus removed for psychiatric reasons from a 27 year old woman with a genetically normal family history and no sign of neoplastic disease both at abortion and for at least three years afterward.”
In both of these cell lines it is quite clear that the aborted children were presumed to be healthy, and that there was no life-threatening condition or other medically-indicated reason for the abortion of these two babies.
There is a more recent cell line, PER C6, developed in 1985, which is being used currently in research to develop vaccines to treat Ebola and HIV.
(By the way, it doesn't stop there. Scientists say fetal tissue remains essential for vaccines and developing treatments. Aborted fetal cells are currently and continuously being used to research many diseases.)
It seems there is actually a debate on whether or not vaccines are made from aborted fetal cells. There should be no debate. The manufacturers of vaccines list it directly on their product insert!
For example, for the MMR shot (as found on the packet insert from the manufacturer):
“
M-M-R II is a sterile lyophilized preparation of...(3) MERUVAX® II (Rubella Virus Vaccine Live), the Wistar RA 27/3 strain of live attenuated rubella virus propagated in WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts.”
While most people say that they still don't actually contain DNA of these aborted babies, the manufacturers of these vaccines say otherwise. Directly from the Varivax (chickenpox) vaccine packet insert from the manufacturer:
“The product also contains residual components of MRC-5 cells including DNA and protein.”
A Christian pro-vaccine doctor weighs in on the moral implications of vaccines made with aborted fetal cells:
“As a family physician I strongly believe in the importance and effectiveness of vaccinations in preventing serious illnesses.
I am a doctor and a mother of young children who desires to keep my children safe. But above these callings, I am a Christian, and as such I cannot use a product that was developed from the abortion industry, even if it means great inconvenience or even danger for my family. The evil performed when these babies were killed decades ago is sufficient to make these tainted vaccines morally unacceptable. The passage of time does not diminish a sinful act.
No matter what “good” may be engineered from an evil, the evil act remains evil, and any participation in that evil is immoral. We cannot justify the evil of abortion by saying it provided the “good” of vaccines that protect our children and society. I do not find anywhere in Scripture that says we have a moral obligation or justification to protect ourselves at the expense of another human being. Promoting the greatest good for the greatest number of people at the expense of an innocent person is utilitarianism, and violates the sanctity of human life.”
One of the most highly misunderstood notions among moral theologians and ethicists is that the abortions involved were not done with the intention of creating vaccines.
“In order to sustain 96% of the cells, the live tissue would need to be preserved within 5 minutes of the abortion...Within one minute, the cells would continue to deteriorate, rendering the specimens useless.
”
It was undeniably the intent of the abortionist and the researcher to destroy these babies specifically for vaccine manufacturing.
Is There Another Option?
We can protect our children in ways much safer and much more effective than vaccines.

This is just some of the research I have uncovered in my quest for truth. I pray that God leads you to truth and that you will share truth with others to help stop the destruction of the next generations of His children.
