There is a universal principle referred to as “atrophy of disuse”
which, as far as can be determined, applies to all physiologic processes
of the human body. Although a normal full-term infant comes into the
world with virtually all of the brain cells (neurons) that it will ever
have, the brain continues to grow from increasing numbers of glial
(connective tissue) cells and dendrite branching extensions that
continue throughout life with mental activity. As an example, the story
is told of two sisters who were identical twins and entered a nunnery,
one gravitating into administrative work, the other into menial labor.
With the passage of years the former remained mentally alert and
bright, while the latter lapsed into Alzheimer’s disease from brain
atrophy.

As a brief review of Part 1, the human newborn comes into the world
with temporary protection from residual maternal antibodies. Otherwise
the infant’s immune system is rudimentary, requiring a series of
challenges to become fully functional, which is around three years of
age. Although the so-called minor childhood diseases of earlier times
were looked upon as nuisances (chickenpox and mumps) or potentially
dangerous (measles and rubella), they may have evolved as
friends-in-disguise by challenging and therefore uniquely activating and
strengthening both epithelial and endothelial tissues, their
respective organs, and lymph nodes. Those natural diseases also had the
advantage of conferring permanent immunity, which is not necessarily
the case with vaccines as attested to with revaccination every few
years and higher percentages of infectious disease among those
vaccinated.

Concerning the dangers of measles, aside from hygiene and sanitation,
this largely involves personal disciplines in terms of diet, nutrition,
and other health habits in which restriction/avoidance of sugar plays a
prominent role along with abundant dietary sources (fresh fruits and
vegetables) containing vitamins C and A. Nutrient deficiency may be an
underlying reason that flu epidemics tend to occur over holidays, when
people are inclined to overindulge in sweet treats and alcoholic
beverages, which metabolize like sugar in the body.
There is an experimental basis for demonstrating sugar’s paralyzing
effects on the immune system. As demonstrated by Professor Emanuel
Cheraskin at the Alabama University Medical School, blood samples were
drawn from students before and after drinking a single soft drink
(soda). White cells were siphoned from the blood samples and the white
cells inoculated with staphylococcus microorganisms. After a period of
incubation, the number of staphylococcus phagocytized (engulfed) by the
white cells were counted under a microscope. The numbers of engulfed
staphylococcus were reduced by more than half following consumption of
the soft drink, indicating that the white cells were significantly
paralyzed and crippled by that sugar-containing beverage. [1]

Also pertinent was a study conducted in Afghanistan in which 200
children with measles were divided into two groups, one of which
received aspirin and Tylenol® to lower fever, the other not receiving
aspirin or Tylenol®. The children receiving antipyretics had more
prolonged illnesses, more diarrhea, ear infections, respiratory
complications such as pneumonia and bronchitis, and higher death rates.
[2]

Concerning the chickenpox (varicella) vaccine, articles by Gary Goldman
seriously question the advisability of universal varicella vaccination
as related to increasing subsequent occurrences of herpes zoster
(shingles or zona). [3-4]
The differing functions of the Th1 cellular and Th2 humoral immune systems were summarized in a review article by P. Kidd:
<blockquote>“The Th1 cells are hypothesized to lead the attack against
intracellular pathogens such as viruses, raise the classic delayed-type
to viral and bacterial antigens, and fight cancer cells. The Th2 cells
are believed to emphasize protection against extracellular pathogens.
On the negative side, the Th1 pathway is often portrayed as being the
more aggressive of the two, and when it is overreactive, can generate
organ-specific autoimmune disease (e.g. arthritis, multiple sclerosis,
type 1 diabetes). The Th2 pathway is seen as underlying allergy and
related IgE disease.” [5]</blockquote>Regarding vaccines and their
propensity toward fostering allergies, Imani and Kehoe found a
previously unrecognized side effect of the MMR vaccine by incubating it
with a line of human plasma cells, which resulted in increased
expression of allergy-related IgE antibodies accompanied by a
corresponding decrease in protective IgG antibodies. Based on these
findings, the authors concluded that viral vaccines might be playing a
role in the increasing incidence of asthma and other allergic diseases.
[6]

Much the same also holds true for a causal relationship between
vaccines and the rising incidence of juvenile diabetes. In 1998 John
Classen, MD, gave a presentation at a conference held by the American
College of Medicine in which he reviewed 32 published articles, five
authored by himself, indicating a causal relationship between vaccines
and the rising incidence of insulin-dependant diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
Nations represented in the papers included New Zealand, Canada, the
United Kingdom, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, the USA, and Holland. Single
vaccines were used including haemophilus influenza, hepatitis B,
pertussis, BCG, and smallpox.

A prototype study was conducted in Finland by Classen and reported in
the British Medical Journal. [7] In this study, from all children born
in Finland between October 1, 1985 and August 31, 1987, approximately
116,000 were randomized as test subjects to receive four doses of
haemophilus vaccine starting at three months of age, or one dose
starting at 24 months. Additionally, 125,000 unvaccinated children
served as controls. Each group was followed until age 10 years for
development of IDDM. The incidence at seven years for those receiving
four doses, those receiving one dose, and those receiving none was 261,
237, and 207 respectively with relative risks of 1.2, 1.14, and 1 for
those children receiving no vaccine.
In virtually all of the reports from other countries the results were
very similar, indicating a slight but consistent increase in IDDM
following each of the five single vaccines listed above. Classen
interpreted these results as indicating that it was not the type of
vaccination that mattered so much as the immunologic impact of
vaccination itself. Typically there was a 3 to 5 year delay between
vaccines and onset of IDDM.

Quotations by Classen during the 1998 conference included:
“Vaccinating every child against every disease is fundamentally unsound.”
“There is a 3.78-fold increased risk of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in children from today’s vaccines.”
“All autoimmune diseases are increasing in incidence. General immune
(over) stimulation from vaccines is a cause of autoimmunity.“
Genetic Exchanges in the World Around Us

Barbara
McClintock, the 1983 Nobel Laureate “Corn Lady,” was the first to
discover genetic mobility in the so-called jumping genes in the 1930s.
For over 50 years she pursued solitary research with corn, uncovering
some of nature’s innermost secrets about life. McClintock studied
maize, a form of Indian corn, where distribution of red kernels and
yellow kernels is genetically determined. What she first perceived was
that some of the genes were moving from one place to another on the
cell’s chromosomes (the floating threads on which genes are lined like
beads on a string). She then saw patterns in the movements, with sharply
differing results in the colored kernels, and realized that some
genes, once moved into position, switched other genes on or off. It
followed that while most genes were workers, others were controllers or
managers of genes.
According to an article in World Medicine [8] scientists at the
University of Geneva made the startling discovery that biological
substances entering directly into the bloodstream may truly become a
part of us, even a part of our genetic material. The article stated in
part:
<blockquote>“When Japanese bacteriologists discovered that bacteria of
one species transferred their own highly specific antibiotic resistance
to bacteria of an entirely different species, they seemed to hit on a
unique if not startling phenomenon. Dr. Maurice Stroun and Dr.
Phillippe Anker, with colleagues in the Plant Physiology Department at
the University of Geneva, have now accumulated a wealth of evidence that
the transfer of genetic information is not confined to bacteria but
also can occur between bacteria and higher plants and animals.
“Dr. Stroun and colleagues did most of their research in plants but
have now turned to animals. In their latest experiments they used the
isolated auricles of frogs’ hearts, [9] from which they dipped RNA
extracted from the frog auricles into a bacterial suspension, resulting
in a high percentage interlinkage of frog RNA with bacterial DNA.”</blockquote>The article concluded that the implications of this work on “transcession”
are enormous and reflect something that may be commonly taking place
in human bodies. From the standpoint of future generations, the
possibility that vaccines may be bringing about genetic hybridization in
our children may represent far and away the greatest hazard of today’s
childhood vaccine programs.
A Case On Point

During June
2011 a great number of German E.coli infections (3,406) and 39 deaths
have occurred with suspicions that organically grown bean sprouts are
the source of contamination. The findings have vacillated from yes, it
was the sprouts to no, it was not the sprouts to now as of this
writing, it IS the sprouts.
However, the real issue may be more than bean sprouts, if they truly
are the source of contamination and not a scapegoat. It seems the
medical profession did not recognize that they were dealing with a rare
strain of E.coli, O104:H4.
<blockquote>“What most predominantly differentiates O104 from O157 is
its adoption of numerous traits not typically found congregated in one
strain: Not only does it produce the noxious Shiga toxin of the virulent
enterohemorrhagic strains, it also possesses defensive
enteroaggregative traits –a combined mouthful of properties much more
difficult to tolerate physically than verbally.”
“When people come into a hospital with bloody diarrhea, they would
normally assume it’s O157 and not give antibiotics to the patients,” he
said. “In this case, because it wasn’t O157, the physicians might have
thought it was okay to give antibiotics, not knowing that O104 would
produce the Shiga toxin.”
“This potential misunderstanding over antibiotics might at least
partially explain the high rate of HUS [hemolytic-uremic syndrome] among
the ill. Girón [Jorge Girón, Ph.D., E. coli researcher and associate
professor of microbiology at the University of Florida's Emerging
Pathogens Institute] said this outbreak may necessitate new screening
procedures at hospitals to account for O104 alongside O157, ensuring patients don’t receive antibiotics that could exacerbate their illness or kill them.” [Emphasis added] [11]</blockquote>The
above may be the classic example needed to illustrate the unknowns
involved in vaccine pharmacology and morphology, and medicine’s
inability or unwillingness to address that aspect of vaccinology.
Are Vaccines Sowing the Seeds of Genetic Change?

As
reviewed above, the first six months of an infant’s life is a period
of heightened vulnerability because of the infant’s immature and
rapidly growing nervous system and highly immature immune system. It is
during this time-period that 19 or 20 vaccines are routinely
administered, according to officially recommended schedules,
irrespective of whether the infant was born prematurely, a condition
that apparently predisposes preterm infants to a series of vaccine
adverse reactions. [12]
A very revealing study reported in Virus Research tends to support the
hypothesis of genetic exchange associated with viral vaccines. In the
study of 24 passages of a nuclear polyhedrosis virus through cell
cultures, there were both insertions and deletions in the virus, [10]
suggesting that the virus freely exchanged genetic material with the
tissues in which it was cultured [similar to transcession discussed
above].

Considering that today’s vaccines have been incubated in cell cultures
of aborted fetuses, monkey kidneys, and other animal tissues, this
should give any thinking person pause to consider the possible
implications involved in manufacturing, injecting, and receiving
vaccines.
