Mumps and Flu Vaccine Awareness

Recently I read an article that had me wondering what are they thinking, anyway. As a consumer health researcher for over 35 years, I can see a clear childhood diseases history trail in the rear view mirror, as they would say. 

One issue that doesn’t seem to sit right with me is the fact that as a young child in the 1940s, who went to both public and parochial schools, I never remember a child dying from any of the childhood communicable diseases, and we lived in a large city. 

Furthermore, I remember parents holding ‘measles parties’ where they would take their children to the house of a child with measles so their child could contract the disease; get it over with early in life; and acquire natural, life-long immunity. It was a given back then: children got childhood diseases, and we survived. Just ask anyone who is 60 years or older how it was done.

((AND i REMEMBER THAT SO WELL, BUT DESPITE ALL MY MOM'S ATTEMPTS, I NEVER DID ACTUALLY 'CATCH' THE MUMPS BUT I SEEM TO TEST AS IF I HAD THEM......BUT I CAUGHT EVERYTHING ELSE, AND I SURVIVED--ALEXIS))

What happened to change that childhood ‘tradition’ of dealing with communicable childhood diseases to the current fear mongering one where parents are mentally bludgeoned to get their children vaccinated against a host of childhood diseases, which, in fact, may be Nature’s way of improving and strengthening the immune system in children, who are not living in squalor or are nutritionally deficient, to acquire innate or “natural immunity.” Vaccines provide accelerated artificial responses, which vaccinologists consider “acquired immunity” that needs to be boostered every so often with more doses of these vaccines.

Granted, in Third World countries where sanitation is lacking; water is not safe, potable, and plentiful; and food and nutrition are compromised, childhood communicable infectious diseases can be devastating. Resources should be expended for improving the essentials of daily living, and then life would improve for everyone except Big Pharma, which would not make billions of dollars from vaccines that cause adverse events and even death. See Fact: Vaccinations are Killing Our Kids. In addition, such vaccination programs are contributory, if not causal, factors for many of the epidemic levels of chronic childhood medical conditions that were unknown or ‘rare’ before vaccines were introduced.

The article that prompted my writing this was discussing “Extra doses of mumps vaccine during outbreaks still in question” wherein this was stated:  Administering additional doses of vaccine may not be the optimal solution to a mumps outbreak, according to study data published online. [1

................................That remark revolved around this issue:

CDC researchers reported data on 2,503 sixth- through 12th-grade students from three schools in an Orthodox Jewish community in Orange County, N.Y., where a mumps outbreak occurred in 2009. All of the students had documented two doses of mumps- containing vaccine. A total of 320 vaccinated children developed mumps. [2

What really struck me about the mumps vaccine issue is my remembering that the mumps vaccine manufactured by Merck & Company was reported to be not effective, and two qui tam plaintiffs filed a civil action on behalf of the federal government, Civil Action No. 10-4374, U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania filed August 27, 2010. Part of the filings 

The original 95 percent efficacy rate for Merck’s mumps vaccine was based upon the 1967 filing for governmental approval

Can you imagine that? And, Merck has been contending that its MMRII vaccine was 95 percent ‘effective’ (efficacy level) since at least the year 2000. Furthermore, the complaint charges that Merck listed that false information in the FDA-approved vaccine package inserts which the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Vaccine Program relied upon as accurate information to promote this vaccine to health agencies. The information for the mumps component was not scientifically accurate, nor was Merck able to produce that 95 percent effectiveness level using the accepted vaccine certification practices upon which the FDA relied.
