The truth about smallpox.

First of all, it is worth while noting that Edward Jenner, the inventor of the smallpox vaccine, tried out the vaccine on his 10 month old son. He gave his son over 22 vaccinations. His son remained mentally retarded until his death from tuberculosis at the age of 21. Jenner refused to vaccinate his second child."

"One of the worst smallpox epidemics of all time took place in England between 1870-72, nearly two decades after compulsory smallpox vaccines were introduced. The people of Leicaster England refused to have any more vaccines and relied on better sanitation and quarentine. Interestingly enough, there was only one death from small pox in Leicaster during that epidemic. In contrast, citizens in other communities who had been vaccinated, died in vast number.[1] Doctors and drug companies may not like to admit the fact that better living conditions, surveillance, and quarentine got rid of the smallpox -not the vaccine."

"Dr. Matthew J. Rodermund, M.D., of Wisconsin, USA, for years offered $10,000 to anyone who could prove scientifically that smallpox is contagious. ""In fact, Dr. Rodermund created a sensation by smearing his body with the exudates of smallpox sores in order to demonstrate to his medical colleagues that a healthy body could not be infected with the disease. He was arrested and quarentined in jail, but not before he had come into contact with many people. Not a single case of smallpox developed through this exposure..." [2,3]
"Dr. Charles A.A.Campbell, M.D., of San Antonio, USA, who was for years in charge of an isolation hospital made exhaustive experiments in order to demonstrate that smallpox is contagious, but found that this is not the case."

So who is the real enemy and just how much of a threat is smallpox to a healthy immune system? I remember that before the anthrax scare began, USA Today had a headline that health officials were concerned that anthrax might be used by bioterrorists. It was only three days later that the first cases of anthrax sprung up. Later on after examining the spores, it was found to be U.S. military grade anthrax!..?! So does the anouncement of a smallpox threat and the Bush administration's push for more vaccine development imply an inevitable
bioterrorist attack? [designer smallpox made in the USA]?
When the anthrax scare was on I noticed that some news footage used certain affects and camera techniques to make it all look more scarey than it really was, like a bad horror movie. The real terror-inducer is the mainstream media. So let us not give in to this delusional media-hyped fear syndrone and also explore the truth about alternative forms of dealing with viruses and disease.

Dubya says it's not about the oil?

Yeah, right...

The US State Department stressed at the meeting on the future of a post-Hussein Iraq that oil was "issue number one," according to The Guardian which said it had been given details of the meeting.

Deborah Orin is a good reporter. Nobody tells her what to write.

The NY Post created a meme today - Axis of Weasels. Good for them!
