The "wisdom" of a fool ...

I used to give Bill Gates the benefit of the doubt in regards to his statements about vaccines and reducing population growth - no longer.  

I used to believe what he implied - that when children don't die because they get vaccinated then couples will have fewer children. Though I think that logic is pretty flimsy because I don't think that is what drives family size regardless of what Bill Gates thinks. 

What I find so bizarre about this is his decision to back expensive high-tech healthcare (like vaccines) rather than invest his billions in providing clean water and cheap energy to the poor - as these drive health outcomes far better (in my opinion) than vaccines. If you're going to die from drinking unsanitary water a measles vaccine isn't going to help you. It does not make sense to start at the top of the pyramid of complex interventions - first you need to build the foundation with the basics. 

Cheap energy means people don't need to cook over an open fire fueled by dung - breathing the smoke is a driver of respiratory illness. Cheap energy also means people have access to refrigeration so food does not spoil. 

Besides - many of the expensive high tech vaccines require a cold-chain in order to be effective. This increases their complexity in delivery to places of the world where doing so is logistically challenging - another reason to start with the basics of clean water and cheap energy. 

Part of what is so strange is that BG believes (or at least publically says he believes) in the theory of global warming/climate change being driven by CO2 - hence his desire to reduce world population, 'cause people do nasty things like breathe! How this doesn't apply to him I'll never understand - just to all those poor brown peeps. Go figure. Oddly enough, The Gates Foundation Trust invests in energy companies like BP. 

But these high tech vaccines and the cold chain they require also need energy - to produce them and to keep them cold. The same energy that also creates CO2 that he says needs to be reduced to zero. The planes he and his family jet around in likewise produce loads of CO2, but nevermind - the rules for the rich and elite are quite different.  

With mandatory vaccination a favorite strategy of vaccine proponents (you know, an idea so good people will only "agree" to it by force) one can only speculate what population controllers might try in an effort to impose controls over who does or does not make a baby. 

There have already been worries that some ingredients in vaccines might cause infertility (especially Gardasil - there have been reports of premature ovarian failure following the administration of this vaccine). 

There have been multiple vaccine-related scandals where concerns were raised that the vaccine may have also contained beta-HCG, a hormone needed to maintain a pregnancy. One of the consistent patterns is that these allegations always involved population groups that were poor and people of color and where consent was non-existent. 

The theory of using a vaccine against beta-Hcg (the beta sub-unit of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) as a means of "birth control" has been around since the early 1990's. 

So I can only speculate that perhaps BG would be willing to vaccinate people against giving birth. You see, a vaccine against beta-Hcg would not stop a woman from getting conceiving, but it would interfere with implantation or the continuation of life for a newly conceived person - and as even Horton the Who knows "a person is a person no matter how small". Horton is smarter, and wiser, than Bill Gates. 

Since we do not have a long-term study comparing health outcomes (death being a "health outcome" believe it or not!) between vaccinated vs unvaccinated we really do not know if vaccines are truly safe. We do know that conventional medical care, even inadvertently, contributes to the death of those who seek medical help - and vaccines are a cornerstone of conventional medicine, though they consistently get a free pass in regards to any question of involvement in bad outcomes. Yet there is reason to question their safety - it is just that this evidence is simply ignored because it does not fit the approved paradigm.  

Smart isn't always wise. Sometimes "smart" people are arrogant - pretending to be wise, yet they are fools (1 Corinthians 1:25 & 1 Corinthians 3:19-20). We all deserve to be free of being controlled by arrogant overlords - we deserve the freedom to determine what medical interventions, including vaccines, we will or will not take. 

12 links - click and learn

While I aim to provide brief snips of original content there is also no need to reinvent the wheel. Below are links to a 12 part series much of which contains a reasonable summary of some of the issues involved in vaccination and why so many think and believe that there should be far greater freedom in regards to acceptance/declination of this medical procedure (among others). 

The links to every part of the series is available at the end of each post (a considerate touch on the part of the creator) I am including all of them here as the primary topic of each article is in the link - you can read one or all and jump around if you want to.

Huh? Less flu vac/less flu?!

A news report from our northern neighbors (Ontario, Canada) reveals an intriguing bit of information - this year only 40% of local residents have received a flu vaccine (so far), yet there has been a 94% drop in reported flu cases compared with last year. The writer did not report what percentage of the same population received a flu vaccine last year. And to be fair (ie: scientific) there are many variables that affect prevalence of an infectious illness like influenza - so there is no way to know (short of an actual double-blind randomized controlled trial) if this is an anomaly unrelated to amount of flu vaccine distributed or if perhaps receipt of flu vaccine actually makes people more vulnerable to URI's (Upper Respiratory Infections) or ILI (Influenza Like Illness) like this study suggests. Yet another study from Japan also implies that Vit D3 may reduce risk of contacting flu. 

But this sort of information (less flu in a population with a low rate of vaccination) begs the question - why? It implies that perhaps it is not the vaccine that is responsible for this outcome. 

The writer of course makes the obligatory knee-jerk statement advising one and all to get a flu vaccine regardless of the contradictory facts previously disclosed earlier in the article. I won't make such a blanket recommendation - but instead encourage all to do their own research and decide to receive or decline vaccination (of any kind) in conjunction with a trusted healthcare provider once he or she decides they have sufficient information to make an informed decision and that this decision is freely made - not coerced, nor manipulated nor contingent upon any other action. 

Some common sense strategies to reduce risk: 
- With hands being a primary vector of infection hand-washing is a great way to reduce risk of acquiring an infection or of spreading one. I am not a big fan of alcohol-based hand cleansers for a variety of reasons, but they are a reasonable option if soap and water are not available. 
- Plenty of rest 
- Good nutrition 
- Vit D3 (one alternative explanation for the increase in illness in winter is less exposure
to sunlight and subsequent lower levels of Vit D circulating in our bodies). It would be 
prudent to talk with your healthcare provider about this and consider having your levels 
checked.

Random Ramblings ...

Forced vaccination has been justified in the name of the "greater good" - at best a Machiavellian mindset that the ends justifies the means. Any harm that might be done by vaccination (because those who advocate forced vaccination rarely acknowledge that harm is done by vaccines) is over-ridden by the good of avoiding short-term infectious illness that seldom causes death or long-term adverse sequelae while resulting in long-term immunity (instead of the short-term risk reduction provided by vaccination - resulting in the "need" for repeated vaccination). 

Ultimately the issue of forced vaccination results from a naturalistic man (ie: human) centered worldview. What I find so bizarre about this is this type of thinking justifies abortion for the sake of individual freedom yet will also justify forcibly vaccinating masses of people, thus violating their personal autonomy and bodily integrity (interestingly, abortion does this to the unborn baby, and frequently enough to the woman herself). 

Just as odd is a man-centered worldview generally believes in evolution, not God-caused creation as described in the Bible. If one believes in evolution (where "creation" happened spontaneously from chaotic randomness) why would you want vaccination, forced or otherwise? Any death from an infectious illness would be the result of "natural selection"! 

The theory of herd immunity is also used as a justification for mandatory vaccination, and yet there is reason to question its efficacy. Pertussis is rapidly becoming a case-study for the questionable foundation of herd immunity as it keeps happening in highly vaccinated populations - populations that have achieved "herd immunity"! 

There are many adults who are not "UTD" (Up To Date) on their vaccinations - and yet there are neither frequent, nor severe outbreaks of "vaccine preventable" diseases in groups who are technically "under-vaccinated". 

(Source: https://www.facebook.com/toni.green.771/posts/1214301301918854) 

With vaccines being a source of ginormous growth and profit for the pharmaceutical industry (little risk, lots of reward as they are essentially liability free since 1986) there is tremendous conflict of interest embedded in those who are setting vaccine policy - lawmakers and others who work in or around the vaccine industry whore around in a fascist brothel. They have been pimping out children for years but now are no longer satisfied with the sickening profits that have been reaped with this group and have now moved on to adults. 

To whatever extent vaccines work there is no justification for forcing or manipulating or coercing people to use them. We are designed to live in freedom - including the freedom to decide what vaccines, if any, to receive. 

A little levity ... to make a point

Most are familiar with the phrase "If you didn't laugh, you'd cry" - today's post is sponsored by that thought. While it may provide a chuckle it effectively illustrates the reality that VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) is widely believed to underreport vaccine related adverse events - so there is reason to believe that there are far more unintended and undesired effects of vaccines but we don't.really.know. 

Better, more reliable information would require studies comparing vaccinated with unvaccinated over the long term (ie: years) in order to capture an accurate picture of both the desired and undesired consequences of vaccination so people can decide if they want to accept or decline this intervention with a better information about the risk/benefit ratio. 

There is another interesting comparison in the meme - guns don't just take lives, they save them. But this too, is underreported as it does not fit the narrative favored by the MSM (much like the risks of vaccination do not fit the narrative or paradigm of those who favor vaccination so they go unstudied and unreported). 

I wish I had written this ...

The following link will take you to a long post on another site - but it is rich with theories and concepts that are worth considering. 

It deconstructs why vaccination may not be the best strategy for life-long health. The current paradigm of frequent vaccination from birth is based on comparing a newborn's immune system to an adults and deciding it is defective because it is different. The need for repeated frequent exposure to a vaccine is necessary because a baby's immune system is not yet able to respond the way an adult's does. This is not bad or wrong and in fact is evidence of design.

As always - you as a parent, or as an adult should determine what medical intervention (vaccination or otherwise) that you will accept or decline - and your freedom to do so should not be influenced by coercion or manipulation. I hope some day we return to an era of greater freedom where this is so.
