- DTP Vaccine Increases Mortality in Young Infants 5 to 10-Fold Compared to Unvaccinated Infants
For many years, public health advocates have vainly urged the CDC and WHO to conduct studies comparing vaccinated vs. unvaccinated populations to measure overall health outcomes. Now a team of Scandinavian scientists has conducted such a study and the results are alarming. That study, funded in part by the Danish government and lead by Dr. Soren Wengel Mogensen, was published in January in EBioMedicine. Mogensen and his team of scientists found that African children inoculated with the DTP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis) vaccine, during the early 1980s had a 5-10 times greater mortality than their unvaccinated peers. The data suggest that, while the vaccine protects against infection from those three bacteria, it makes children more susceptible to dying from other causes.

Doctors now give the tetanus shot (given as the combined Dtap) to patients for everything from dog bites to kitchen knife wounds. It is a common practice that many don’t question if they even need the shot. What are the risks? Does the injection even help prevent it? These are the questions we should all be asking when we are being told to have any kind of vaccine.

Shortly after the varicella shot was rolled out, the Centers for Disease Control initiated a surveillance study to assess the effects of this vaccine in a community with little mobility, Antelope Valley, CA. In this town, people were born, raised and passed on with few folks moving in or out. It was the perfect petri dish to see what the vaccine was doing.

The shingles vaccine Merck Pharmaceuticals has been marketing since 2006 now comes with a warning that it could cause eye damage. February 17, 2016, the FDA approved a label change to Merck’s Zostamax vaccine prescribing information. The change to the label added “Eye Disorders: necrotizing retinitis.” Merck consequently faces Shingles Vaccine Lawsuits over this dubious vaccine.

Infantile spasms are a type of epileptic disorder in young children characterized by flexor (34 percent), extensor (22 percent), and mixed flexor-extensor (42 percent) seizures that tend to occur in clusters or flurries (Kellaway et al., 1979). The earliest manifestations of infantile spasms can be subtle and are easily missed, making it difficult to identify the precise age at onset.

Over the past ten years the incidence of pertussis in the United States (U.S.) has risen steadily, with 2012 seeing the highest case number since 1955. There has also been a shift over the same time period in the age group reporting the largest number of cases (aside from infants), from adolescents to 7–11 year olds.

This permits evaluation of a continuing natural experiment in which the frequency and severity of whooping cough can be compared those of adverse events following injections of pertussis vaccine.

A paediatrician was responsible for diagnosing the specific type of adverse reaction.

Since mid-2011, a substantial rise in pertussis cases has been reported in the state of Washington. In response to this increase, the Washington State Secretary of Health declared a pertussis epidemic on April 3, 2012. By June 16, the reported number of cases in Washington in 2012 had reached 2,520 (37.5 cases per 100,000 residents), a 1,300% increase compared with the same period in 2011 and the highest number of cases reported in any year since 1942.

It is established that subclinical Bordetella pertussis colonization of the nasopharynx persists in highly vaccinated populations, and B. pertussis toxin is a potent adjuvant that, when co-administered with neural antigens, induces neuropathology in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, the principle animal model of multiple sclerosis. Building on these observations with supporting epidemiologic and biologic evidence, we propose that, contrary to conventional wisdom that subclinical pertussis infections are innocuous to hosts, B. pertussis colonization is an important cause of multiple sclerosis.

The DTaP vaccine insert, in plain text, lists autism, sudden infant death, apnea, seizures up to gran mal, neuropathy AND MORE as adverse events. Interesting it is that the standard vaccine side effects – triggering allergies and other normal stuff is not even listed and in their own words “what they listed was prioritized for frequency and severity”. So Autism and other horrible brain damage are being reported so much that the normal adverse stuff vaccines used to be known for are not even listed.

Infantile spasms, in combination with an electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern of hypsarrhythmia and psychomotor retardation or regression, is referred to as West syndrome. Approximately 80 percent of infants with infantile spasms have, at some time, a characteristic EEG pattern of hypsarrhythmia, whereas this pattern is seen in only ~4 percent of cases with other types of epilepsy (Jeavons and Bower, 1964). The hypsarrhythmic EEG pattern usually disappears with maturation, and ~50 percent of cases may have normal EEGs by age 8 years, although ~65 percent of children with infantile spasms will go on to have other types of seizures (Glaze and Zion, 1985).
