Vaccine madness: New mumps jab cultured from dog kidneys linked to canine allergies








(NaturalNews) An unlicensed vaccine being quietly shipped into the U.K.
from the Czech Republic is sparking controversy as it may be linked to
causing severe allergic reactions. Medi-Mumps, a single mumps vaccine cultured from dog kidney cells,
is being touted by some as an alternative to the controversial
combination measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine, but others have
major concerns about both its source and its potential for triggering
severe canine allergies.

Christina England from VacTruth.com reports that Medi-Mumps will be
available in private U.K. health clinics beginning in June, and that it
is intended for children that are allergic to eggs -- many vaccines
are produced using eggs cultures -- and for children whose parents are
opposed to MMR. Though not officially approved for use, Medi-Mumps will
be an option for parents who request it as part of a single vaccine
regimen of immunization.

But children with dog allergies will still have to steer clear of the
Medi-Mumps vaccine, which could trigger the same type of severe allergic
reactions that a typical egg-cultured vaccine sometimes triggers in
children with egg allergies. In fact, based on egg-cultured vaccines'
reputation of potentially triggering new egg allergies, it is likely
that the dog-based vaccine will also trigger new canine allergies in
some children.

Is Medi-Mumps just a repackaged version of the now-banned Pavivac mumps vaccine?

Back
in 2002, the Committee on the Safety of Medicines, an independent U.K.
advisory committee that evaluates the quality, efficacy and safety of
medicines, rejected a single mumps vaccine known as Pavivac because of
serious safety concerns. Just like Medi-Mumps, Pavivac was made from
dog kidney cells in the Czech Republic, but was considered potentially
hazardous with not enough evidence to back up claims that it was safe
and effective.

Now it appears as though Pavivac has simply been repackaged and
rebranded as Medi-Mumps, which similarly lacks proper safety data
showing that it is effective with minimal risk. And yet parents opting
for single vaccines for their children will likely be presented with
Medi-Mumps as a viable alternative to MMR, even though it could cause
the very same harm as MMR.


Ethical and moral issues involved with making vaccines out of dogs.

That
creating vaccines with dog kidneys is even considered valid medical
practice by anyone is heinous enough, let alone the safety issues
presented by their use. Using chicken eggs to culture vaccines is one
thing, as no animal has to die in order to make this happen. But dogs
presumably have to be bred and killed in order to have their kidneys
harvested for the creation of Medi-Mumps vaccines.

Parents' best bet at this point is to avoid both the Medi-Mumps and MMR vaccines
for the safety of their children. Neither vaccine has been proven safe
or effective, and both are linked to potentially irreversible side
effects.
