Herd Immunity
[back]
Medical lies
[The Medical lie 'Herd immunity' is trotted out by vaccinators to promote high vaccination levels for increased 'protection', but the real reasons are--- avoiding having many healthy unvaccinated kids to show them up (High vaccination drive), and more kids vaccinated means more money, it's a Cash Cow (see Money incentive, bribery). It is easy to prove it's junk science with the numerous fully vaccinated populations coming down with the disease, see below and Failures (vaccine).]

[2014 May] Vaccines Exposed: Herd Immunity Is Just Another Word For Cash Cow! According to the current Illinois General State Aid fiscal schedule, Illinois schools receive $6,119 per student from the state. Ten percent of this amount equates to roughly $612. So if a school has 2,000 students, for instance, and it maintains at least a 90 percent vaccination rate, it will receive $12,238,000 from the state per year. But if the vaccination rate falls below 90 percent at the same school, a whopping $1,223,800 will be shaved off this amount

[2012 Feb] The Deadly Impossibility Of Herd Immunity Through Vaccination, by Dr. Russell Blaylock Vaccine-induced herd immunity is a lie used to frighten doctors, public-health officials, other medical personnel, and the public into accepting vaccinations..... Neil Z. Miller, in his latest book The Vaccine Information Manual, provides compelling evidence that herd immunity is a myth.

Sumner-Burstyn: Immunisation choice challenges the herd mentality
Quotes
The validity of herd immunity undergirds all compulsory vaccination
policies. The theory of herd immunity posits that when a sufficiently high
threshold of people in a community is immune to a specific disease, it creates a
protective effect, a barrier of sorts. Society achieves herd immunity when this
protective cordon prevents a resurgence of the disease and, as a result,
protects vulnerable individuals who cannot receive vaccines (or whose vaccines
failed).
After the conference, I approached James Colgrove, PhD, an
expert in the history and ethics of public health from Columbia University. I
complimented him on his 2006 book State of Immunity and asked for
clarification. His book reveals that the term “herd immunity” first appeared in
1923. He describes data limitations and the difficulty in validating the theory
empirically. He quotes one official saying, in 1932, that herd immunity was “a
mere hypothesis.” I asked Colgrove for subsequent evidence-based research
upholding the soundness of herd immunity. He mentioned epidemiological studies
on measles in the 1960s and 1970s that provided corroboration. I challenged
him.
As explained to me by pediatrician Larry Palevsky, the
original basis for herd immunity had nothing to do with vaccines. When
sufficiently high numbers of people contracted the wild form of the disease and
secured lifelong natural immunity, statisticians observed a protective effect in
the community as described above. Policymakers eager to promote vaccines
sought ammunition to increase vaccine uptake. Researchers assumed that
vaccine-induced immunity would operate in the same manner as natural immunity
and presumed that vaccines therefore would also create herd immunity. I am not
a scientist but I know that vaccine-induced immunity is not remotely the same
thing as natural immunity. Natural immunity is the gold standard.
Vaccine-induced immunity is qualitatively different; for starters, vaccines do
not always work and their protection wanes over time. Colgrove admitted as
much, and I just stood there for a moment, stunned. We clearly need more
inquiry into this critically important subject. However, it does not take
scientific brilliance to understand this key point: discredit herd immunity and
the house of cards supporting vaccine mandates comes tumbling down.
One of the grand lies of the vaccine program is the concept of "herd immunity." It is based on the idea that if a certain percentage of the population is immunized against an infectious disease, epidemics can be prevented. The exact percentage changes, mainly, in my opinion, to suit the vaccine manufacturers. In the beginning it was 68 percent, but now some are calling for 95 to 100 percent immunization to reach these goals. We are constantly told, and many doctors believe, that herd immunity has prevented epidemics from occurring in modern America. Unfortunately, there is very little evidence of this for a number of reasons. .....vaccines for most Americans declined to non-protective levels within 5 to 10 years of the vaccines. This means that for the vast majority of Americans, as well as others in the developed world, herd immunity doesn't exist and hasn't for over 60 years.
Vaccine Safety Manual by Neil Z. Miller. (Preface)The belief in herd immunity leads to many delusions. One of them is that when the number of immune people in a community drops below a certain point, it will make the next epidemic come sooner. In 1976 in Britain the vaccination rate for whooping cough dropped from 76% to 42%, because there had been publicity of bad side effects from the vaccine. The medicrats expected that the drop in the vaccination rate would make the next whooping cough epidemic come sooner, as well as expecting it to be worse. The whooping cough bacteria paid no attention to human theories, and the disease followed the usual timing of its natural cycle of virulence. Medicrats expressed surprise that the epidemic did not come sooner. There were also fewer cases and fewer deaths during this epidemic. The much lower vaccination rate of 42% made no difference to the long term decline of whooping cough, which had been happening for a hundred years. [2005] Raising A Vaccine Free Child by WENDY LYDALL
"In October, 1972. a seminar on rubella was held at the Department of Pathology, University Department, Austin Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Dr. Beverly Allen, a medical virologist, gave overwhelming evidence against the effectiveness of the vaccine. So stunned was she with her investigations that it caused her, like a growing number of scientists, to question the whole area related to herd immunizations. Dr. Allen described two trials: the first trial concerned army recruits who were selected because of their lack of immunity as determined by blood tests. These men were given Cendevax, an attenuated rubella virus that is supposed to protect. They were then sent to a camp which usually has an annual epidemic of rubella. This occurred three to four months after they were vaccinated, and 80% of the so-called immune recruits became infected with rubella virus. A further trial shortly after this took place at an institution for mentally retarded people with similar effects. Additional disturbing evidence was sent to us by a Melbourne GP who was in the United Kingdom at the time that Chief Health Officer Sir Henry Yellowlees, had released a press statement (February 26, 1976) informing doctors that, in spite of high vaccination figures, there had been no detectable reduction in the number of babies born with birth defects."--Dr Archie Kalokerinos & Glen Dettman "Does Rubella Vaccination Protect?," Australian Nurses Journal, reprinted in The Dangers of Immunisation p54
"The reason vaccinations are promoted with such intensity is to prevent people from realising that vaccines do not protect and also in the event of an outbreak or an epidemic the vaccinated are as much at risk of becoming infected as the unvaccinated. The truth can be kept hidden if people's vaccination status remains unknown and if everyone is vaccinated, making a comparison with unvaccinated people impossible. This is also the real reason for the relentless push to vaccinate as many children as possible."-- Dr Buchwald (The Decline of Tuberculosis despite "Protective" Vaccination by Dr. Gerhard Buchwald M.D. p101)
Peter Flegg says, "The only reason
more children do not die of measles in the UK is that herd immunity is still
sufficiently high to protect those who cannot or have not been fully immunised."
That is not entirely correct in my
opinion.
A site called Measles Initiative
says that (7), "Measles is a leading killer of children in many developing
countries for several reasons. Children are already compromised with poor living
conditions, they are infected at very young ages when their immune systems are
not strong, malnutrition is rampant in many homes, and many families do not have
access to medical care to treat measles and its complications. Measles, itself,
does not kill children. Instead, complications from measles attack the child's
already weak immune system. Measles attacks the body, inside and out. It is
similar to HIV in the sense that when it knocks down the immune system, the
child becomes susceptible to the myriad of diseases that fester in poor living
conditions."

have the same living conditions as children in Africa? ----Hilary Butler

Examples of fully vaccinated being unprotected
“The largest measles epidemic in North America in the last decade, occurred in 2011 in Quebec, Canada, where rates of 1- and 2-dose vaccine coverage among children 3 years of age were 95%-97% and 90%, respectively, with 3%-5% unvaccinated.”
“Among adolescents, 22% had received 2 vaccine doses. Outbreak investigation showed this proportion to have been an underestimate; active case finding identified 130% more cases among 2-dose recipients.”

Unexpectedly limited durability of immunity following acellular pertussis
vaccination in preadolescents in a North American outbreak.
CONCLUSIONS:
Our data suggests that the current schedule of acellular pertussis vaccine doses
is insufficient to prevent outbreaks of pertussis. We noted a markedly increased
rate of disease from ages 8-12 years, proportionate to the interval since the
last scheduled vaccine. Stable rates of testing ruled out selection bias. The
possibility of earlier or more numerous booster doses of acellular pertussis
vaccine either as part of routine immunization or for outbreak control should be
entertained.

Acellular pertussis vaccination enhances B. parapertussis colonization
An acellular whooping cough vaccine actually enhances the colonization of Bordetella parapertussis in mice; pointing towards a rise in B. parapertussis incidence resulting from acellular vaccination, which may have contributed to the observed increase in whooping cough over the last decade.

Data Reveals Measles Outbreaks Have Nothing to Do With Non-Vaccination Trends
Article excerpts: If the measles outbreaks in California, and particularly in and around Orange County, as well as New York City are because of non-vaccinators, then why aren’t we seeing outbreaks of everything not being vaccinated for? Why just measles and why all of a sudden, when the number of people opting out of vaccinations has actually steadily dropped in the last few years – after an initial wave of people not doing it?
Non-vaccinators in NY are .1-1% of the population. In California we are talking 1.1-2%. Why aren’t we seeing increases in outbreaks in Vermont, Michigan and Oregon where the rate is over 6%? Correlation (or worse yet, public perception of correlation), is not causation: whether it’s vaccines and autism, or whether it’s a tiny number of people not vaccinating, and a few places having measles outbreaks.
What does the data show on measles in the states where opting out of vaccination trends the highest? There was an instance in Oregon last year, and one this year with a 6% rate of opting out in the state. A child in Washington County, Oregon who developed measles on an overseas trip and exposed hundreds of people in the Portland area. Add to that one case in Oregon this year where a child contracted measles from a vaccinated adult.
Cases of Autism Dwarf Risk from Measles, by Heidi Stevenson
2,000,000 plus cases of autism ASD diagnosis are currently estimated to exist in the US. What are the economic aspects to this, and as well the impact of hardship for families that need to care for and provide for these children, and individuals? Top it off insurance is not paying for clearly working and successful biomedical treatment, nor other things that are needed to truly help recover children with ASD. Why is that? it is because to do so would be to direct admit that vaccines were the cause. Why? Because all to obviously these children would not be healing and recovering if it were anything other than the vaccines. they are detoxing the vaccines and providing needed supplements, dietary changes, and protocols that work with the amazing self healing body, given the right means. Pharma thinks none of that can happen without them and their exclusive control, and will not let it happen. Profit and control of all information, is their continued game.
