| ASSAULT ON THE SPECIES III |
| Rubella Rubella is a harmless malaise, about as serious as the common cold, except when contracted by a woman in the earlier stages of pregnancy, when it can lead to foetal defects. Before the vaccine was introduced the large majority of the population had natural immunity. The vaccine denied the women the chance of this and increased the risk of developing rubella during pregnancy. In the British Medical Journal, Nov. 16 1987, a report noted thirty two women who, when pregnant, contracted rubella; all the women had been vaccinated or screened and found to be �immune�. Nineteen chose to have their babies; one child was born with a defect. Hilary Butler, of the Immunisation Awareness Society, commented: �The reality is that most babies survive rubella "defect-free".� Trials on the vaccine in the USA have shown a failure rate of ninety three percent. 14 Dr Beverly Allan of the Austin Hospital, Melbourne noted a failure rate of army recruits of eighty percent.15 If there has been an inadequate immune-response to the vaccine, as often happens, according to the Journal of Infant Diseases16 there is a pronounced danger that the person will become a rubella carrier and may develop arthritis and an enlarged thyroid. �In some hospitals all employees, except physicians, are required to receive the rubella vaccine. This may be because doctors are the least likely of all hospital personnel to submit to these shots�.13 According to an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association, ninety percent of the obstetricians and around seventy percent of paediatricians refused the vaccine due to fear of �unforeseen vaccine reactions�. Plague - Declined without vaccination Scarlet Fever - Declined without vaccination Cholera - �Certain vaccines, such as that given for cholera, are known to be of no value...� GP magazine July 1991 - after countless shots had been sold. Influenza According to Dr J Seal, of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases: �any and all flu vaccines are capable of causing Guillane-Barre.� In 1976 over 500 people in the US were paralysed by the disease, with thirty dying, after being injected with the vaccine, which is concocted from material taken from influenza victims and then cultivated on mashed chick embryos. The Post Office dropped its influenza vaccine programme after it showed no improvement in absenteeism. Six hundred elderly vaccinated people in Birmingham showed over double the respiratory disease than a non-vaccinated group. 18 Three people, including a 26-year-old man, died in Chesterfield within 48 hours of being jabbed. 19 Diphtheria In the thirties, due to the number of cases of diphtheria occurring in vaccinated individuals, it was necessary to introduce the practice of re-diagnosis. Trouble-makers, like the Medical Officer for Wath-On-Dearne, did not help, with comments like: �Where they have done the most immunising they are getting the most diphtheria.� 20 In 1927, the Ministry of Health, came up with the idea of using the �guinea pig test� to lessen the embarrassment: patients with obvious diphtheria had to be shown to be harbouring, in the nose or throat, diphtheria bacilli strong enough to kill a guinea-pig. As up to forty percent of diphtheria patients have none of this bacterium and as the rest may well not have sufficiently powerful bugs to kill a guinea-pig and as the guinea-pig test is totally unreliable, the wheeze had the very welcome effect of the re-diagnosing of vaccinated diphtheria victims as �tonsillitis� or �sore throat�. Another helping hand was provided by the Schick Test: a diphtheria test developed by the enterprising Bela Schick and then banned in Schick's native Austria due to parents whining that it had killed their offspring. Having had his test banned in Europe, he: �...brought it to America where he knew the unscrupulous medical and drug trusts dominate the healing field. A lush harvest was promised and the customary pressure technique was turned on and the exploitable public was again used and abused...The Schick Test and diphtheria antitoxin continue to take their toll of lives while our elected officials and public protectors (?) look the other way.� 21 Having had the dangerous, totally fraudulent and frequently-lethal test laundered by the US drug boys, Schick was able to import it back to the welcoming re-diagnosers in Europe, where, allied to the guinea-pig test it did sterling work for the cause. In Birmingham seventy percent of cases were re-diagnosed. �Out of 441 sent in as diphtheria in 1933, 285 were finally diagnosed as tonsillitis.� 22 Dr J H Parish, of the vaccine-makers, Wellcome Research Laboratories, suggested that �apparent� diphtheria should be known as �Tonsillitis in Schick-negative carriers.� 23 To counter the problem of the diphtheria antitoxin being lethal, the re-diagnosers were again engaged; this time to come up with a revised version of the diphtheria child-death-rate graph. Prior to the introduction of antitoxin in 1895, diphtheria diagnosis was on clinical symptoms alone: i.e. those who had died of diphtheria were recorded as having died of diphtheria. As of 1895, the diagnosis was based on throat swabs. As so many diphtheria victims did not exhibit the required bacteria, they were adjudged to have died of something else and the graph shows a clear reduction in deaths from diphtheria after the introduction of antitoxin in 1895. As an extra boost to the diphtheria industry, healthy people sometimes exhibited diphtheria bacteria in their nose/throat; these people had, of course, �survived diphtheria� due to the efforts of the dedicated doctors. �As a result of this change of view, cases of mild sore throat are now classes as diphtheria - cases which would, in any case, recover, whatever the treatment; and the fatality of diphtheria will be reduced accordingly.� 24 Germany began compulsory diphtheria vaccination in 1939. When the vaccine saturation was complete there were 150,000 cases of the disease.25 French resistance to the vaccine was ended by the German occupation, leading to 47,000 cases of the illness.21 Norway refused the vaccine and had 50 cases.
