Hi Folks
Do you have that vaccination mark on your arm like I do. Did you ever wonder why they
vaccinated you? Is it still a good idea today? Today you will add some thoughts to your
knowledge of vaccines.

The What's, Why's, and What To Do About Vaccines
(taken from Dr. Lendon Smith's writing.)
*How Were Vaccines Developed?*
At the turn of the century maverick doctors (were there other
kinds?) took purulent material from patients and made vaccines'
(autogenous bacterial vaccines which were then injected into those
patients. It seemed to help those with recurrent bacterial
infections like pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, and kidney
infections. The shots seemed to help the - infection-prone body
how to defend it self. They are still in use today, and are
generally effective but do not produce a permanent immunity due to
the germs causing these chronic infections.
*Why Were Vaccines Developed?*
Research scientists felt that if the viruses of the usual childhood
diseases could be cultured, they could be given to children,
produce a mild disease, but also confirm a permanent immunity; They
were trying to imitate the body's reaction to the real infections.
So the race was on.
*What Kinds of Vaccines Were Made?*
Diphtheria and tetanus vaccines came out in the 1920's and l93O's.
Tetanus shots held lockjaw at bay during World War II. Of all the
millions of U.S. soldiers only twelve came down with tetanus. It
was determined that some of them were so scared they had paid a
buddy to go through the shot line for them. Encouraged by the
success of eradicating tetanus, it seemed a natural step to make
vaccines for all diseases, whether toxin, germ, or virus.
How Did The Vaccine For Polio Come To Be?*
A widespread polio epidemic in the late 1940's and early 1950's was
motivation to provide a vaccine. The oral polio was a live virus,
albeit attenuated.The shot of the dead virus was protective. (A few
injectees got polio affecting the muscles where the shot was given
because the virus was still active enough to cause the disease.)
*When and How Often Were The Vaccines Administered?*
So the routine recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics by
the time I started practice (1951) was to give the
diphtheria/pertussis (whooping cough)/tetanus shot at the second,
fourth, and sixth month of age check-ups. The polio drops were
added at the second and sixth month visits. We also vaccinated
against smallpox at about twelve months of age. In 1960 the measles
shot was added to our list, and then rubella (three~day or German measles), and also
mumps.
Recently the hepatitis B and the hemophilus influenza shots have
been added to all these. Boosters of all these were given after
two to five years. The whooping cough shot is not given after age
five, as it seems to cause frequent untoward reactions. A couple
of decades ago vaccination teams from WHO verified that smallpox
is no longer on this planet, so we have stopped giving that one.
*Do The Vaccines Work?*
There is plenty of good evidence in the peer-review medical
literature that these vaccines are hurting rather than helping the immune system.
*What Can A Person Do In Place of Vaccines?*
My findings are that if the child is provided with a good immune
system, including vitamin C, Echinacea, carotenoids, and abundant
fruits and vegetables, h/she will be able to get the childhood
diseases at the appropriate age, and forever be immune. The
vaccines cannot provide that reassurance,

*Shameless Promotion By Our Sponsor: Sunrise International:
Distributors of Noni juice Product
Systems*
The word about Noni Juice is getting out. Rosie O'Donnell asked
that people write in to her show if they had any suggestions for
one of her staff who has a case of tendonitis that was so severe
that she was in a motororized chair. She got many responses -
five of them suggesting Noni Juice. And 'yes' this staff member
is taking it, and 'yes' she said the pain is much less and it is
helping her. Today on the show we learned that 14 other people
wrote in and said if you find an answer let us know. Morinda is
sending a case of Noni Juice to each of these fourteen people.
You don't have to have something serious like tendonitis, cancer,
arthritis or diabetes or any other big disease to benefit from
Noni. How would you like to have your poor eyesight, extra
weight, skin rashes, or sleep problems suddenly disappear?
One of our subscribers - a kinesiologist - has shared with us his
testimony of what Noni Juice has done for him and his family. Many
of his patients are also using the Noni Juice and he will be
preparing a report on this to be ready next July.
