The current issues of ‘homeopathy 4 everyone’ (April 2016) carries several articles on homeoprophylaxis, the use of homeopathic remedies for the prevention of mostly infectious diseases promoted by homeopathy as a safe and effective alternative to immunizations. They are worth reading – but watch your blood pressure! Here I will give you a flavour by citing from one of these articles:
“…As I have been teaching about Homeoprophylaxis (“HP”) throughout the United States and in Europe, some things have become unmistakably clear. One is the ever increasing desire of people to know that there is a nontoxic alternative when it comes to disease prevention. Another is a profound misunderstanding or, perhaps better said, a lack of education among many regarding HP…
The effectiveness of HP is being shown fairly consistently to be about 90%1, which is comparable to any vaccine. With this in mind, too, those who utilize homeoprophylaxis work to help their clients understand fundamentally that disease is generally not to be feared—that disease-causing pathogens are a necessary part of our environment and that the body generally becomes healthier once it has been exposed to a disease and has worked its way through it…
My passion regarding spreading the word and helping people learn about homeoprophylaxis led to my becoming the co-founder/director of the first international conference of its type in the world—Homeoprophylaxis: A Worldwide Choice, which took place in Dallas, Texas, USA in October, 2015. Isaac Golden was our keynote speaker…
Frequently seen is the protocol Isaac Golden utilizes. This is a once monthly method, where one single remedy/nosode is introduced at potency. If following, for example, a pediatric regimen that lists several nosodes, it will be the next month that either a larger dose of that same nosode is taken, or the next nosode is introduced. For pediatric HP, this is cycled through until all nosodes in the protocol are taken, the higher potency being started after the lower potency is completed. A booklet is provided to the clientele to keep track of these…
Ultimately, homeoprophylaxis has been in use since the days of Hahnemann. What is apparent when one considers the entire picture, noting the meticulous studies that have been and are yet being done as well as the current increasing demand of people worldwide— perhaps especially parents— for a nontoxic alternative for disease prevention, it truly makes sense to be promoting homeoprophylaxis. Our children are the most vulnerable in our society and deserve our utmost attention and concern. Not every practitioner needs to utilize HP. However, because there are many who do, support of this should be encouraged. It is an alternative people deserve to know about so that they can make an educated choice, and health for our society, especially our children, can be promoted.”
END OF QUOTE
By now, you are probably wondering who wrote this article. It was Cathy Lemmon, BA, C.HP, D.Psc, Co-Founder/Director of Homeoprophylaxis: A Worldwide Choice for Disease Prevention, she is also working on future conferences for the promotion of HP. She has studied HP with Isaac Golden of Australia and Ravi Roy and Carola Lage-Roy of Germany. She also has certificates in homeopathic treatment of vaccine injury as well as, through the ARHF in the Netherlands, treatment of epidemics and trauma. She completed studies at the School of Homeopathy and is completing specialized homeopathic studies through Gesundes Bewußtsein in Germany as well as post-graduate work in homeopathy through the College of Practical Homeopathy in London.
With all these ‘qualifications’, she has obviously escaped any education in real science and evidence-based medicine; if not she would know that her views are not just wrong but also dangerous. To Be clear:
- Homeoprophylaxis is not biologically plausible.
- There is no evidence that it works.
- The concept misleads people to think that conventional immunizations are superfluous.
- This has the potential to kill thousands.

If only Isaac Golden’s claims could be assessed by a court or something ans we could find out if they have any merit.
Oh, look! https://luckylosing.com/tag/isaac-golden/
why are they not fined for advertising and promoting this fake vaccine to replace scientifically and clinically proven vaccines?
I’m not saying that this alternative is the best or if is safe, BUT pharmaceutical companies and health care authorities, not only should be fined, but taken to court, BECAUSE, the current vaccines, have not been “clinically” proven safe either, in fact, there are thousands of scientific studies, that demonstrate that the current vaccines are not safe.
Yes! And the studies that are done are funded by the pharmaceutical companies themselves so where can we find REAL information on this?
Maybe you think the public should foot the bill for clinical trials?
The NIH used to be the source of clinical trials in USA until
the Reagan era when the political powers decided those who gain the most from these studies should fund them. Why should those who gain the most provide any unbiased, pure scientific information when much of it could result in their gains being reduced or eliminated. No brainer to me that those with the least to gain should be the source of this information.
I can’t comment on the NIH funding medicine trials in the past, but they certainly do still fund trials of quackery – they have spent billions on it with virtually nothing to show for it but negative trials.
But good luck trying to get the public to pay for trials directly – they already do indirectly, of course, through the prices pharmaceutical companies charge for their products.
Vaccines are extensively studied and their safety tested by many other than pharmaceutical manufacturers. As one example, governmental institutions in the Nordic countries carry out extensive surveillance, testing and research which is totally independent from manufacturers and other interests.
This information is rather easy to assemble.
The false information and blatant lies going on about vaccine research and we see examples of here in this discussion is abhorring and destructive.
Give me an example of one double blinded placebo studie done on vaccines! Oh righ… they don’t excist!
Because the fact is that when they tested vaccines they didnt use a true placebo but rather another vaccine or an aluminum adjuvent as the placebo, the reason was that it would be unethical. So this is not really acceptable atleast for me as an safety study… what I want as a citizen of the world is that they atleast test the vaccinated with the unvaccinated groups in every single vaccine!
Am I wrong?
Heres an interesting video about homeo prophylaxis, and theis person in the video explanes why they havent excepted the safety studies that actually do excist!
People do your research, don’t blindly believe what people say!
“Am I wrong? ”
Yes!
Edzart, specifically what part is Angel wrong about? Is there a double blind placebo study on vaccines?

@Angel and Kandace
For some (technical) reason I haven’t been able to upload part three of the reference list. Papers 201 through 258 are the oldest examples of the genre (dating back to the 1960s).
It would be so nice if anti-vaxxers could inform themselves of the realities before posting rumours and unevidenced nonsense in comments.
@Frank Odds
The problem with the studies you provided (and didn’t read) is that they don’t use a TRUE placebo.
Here is a quote from the first study. Note the final sentance:
Vaccine or placebo were administered as 0.5-mL intramuscular injections on Day 1 and at Months 2 and 6. Each dose of the qHPV vaccine contained HPV6/11/16/18 L1 viral-like particles 20/40/40/20 µg, respectively, and 225 µg aluminum (as aluminum hydroxyphosphate sulfate adjuvant). The placebo doses contained the adjuvant alone.
The adjuvant is what contains substances such as aluminum or mercury, which is what those who are speculative about vaccine safety are usually concerned about. Since both the test and control groups receive the adjuvant, the safety of the adjuvant, and therefore the vaccine as a whole, is not being tested.
Bullshit!
Since vaccines are labeled as biologics and not drugs, there is NO requirement by the FDA for vaccines to be tested for safety in double blind, inert (saline) placebo-controlled trials — the gold standard of safety testing.
Vaccine safety testing is done by the very same pharmaceutical company that is trying to get their vaccine FDA approved. Merck, Sanofi, Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline are the big four vaccine manufacturers. These four vaccine makers have been indicted over 110 times for criminal conduct and have collectively paid fines in excess of $33 billion for: falsifying data, bribing doctors, and lying to the public. Merck has been dragging out a court case for the last nine years for falsifying data on their MMR vaccine and is also currently being accused of fraud and deceit related to their HPV vaccine, Gardasil.
So how is the FDA and CDC allowing these pharmaceutical companies to safety test their vaccines? Some vaccines have been FDA approved and added to the CDC childhood vaccine schedule when there wasn’t even a comparative group. So no real safety testing was done.
When a comparative group was used, the new vaccine group was tested against a group that received another vaccine or a non-antigen injection of neurotoxic ingredients such as an aluminum containing compound and/or mercury containing thimerosal, which can only do harm! (How is this even legal to intentionally harm children in these studies?)
Vaccine makers deceive us by calling this type of study a placebo study, but clearly it is not. A true placebo study is when a control group receives no treatment or is given an inert or inactive substance such as saline or sugar pill. In fact, no childhood vaccine has ever gone through double-blind saline placebo testing before it was FDA approved and added to the CDC schedule.
Safety testing a new vaccine against an injection of toxins is akin to testing the safety of getting hit by a baseball bat versus getting hit by a hammer. It provides no absolute indication of safety while the cause of injuries and deaths would be hidden. Might this be the exact reason why the comparative groups pharma uses to assess vaccine safety are injected with neurotoxins and not a harmless, inert substance like saline?
In addition, many of the ingredients in vaccines are known carcinogens, yet vaccines aren’t safety tested for carcinogenicity, mutagenicity or impairment of fertility, which it explicitly states in vaccine package inserts under section 13.1.
What’s more, many vaccines aren’t tested long enough to detect chronic conditions, which can onset many months after a vaccine has been administered. The two Hep B vaccines were FDA approved after just four and five days of testing. The three Hib (haemophilus influenzae type b) vaccines were FDA approved after just 3, 30 and 31 days of testing. Merck’s MMR II vaccine trials lasted just 42 days and had only 834 subjects before FDA approval to be injected into hundreds of millions of people. Even after knowing about these extremely short testing periods, the CDC still added these vaccines to the childhood schedule.
While the above so far has discussed individual vaccine testing, no safety testing has been done on the practice of injecting multiple combinations of different vaccines into an infant, child or adult in a single doctor’s visit, yet this is common practice that is taught to nurses and pediatricians.

You’ll need to do far better than link to a couple of articles that do not show what you might like them to show.
Tricia
That’s not proof. That’s a couple of homeopaths claiming it works. You appear to be happy to accept their unevidenced assertions. You should not be.
As HP is being given to normal individuals before infection then according to homeopathy it should induce symptoms of the disease, as it doesn’t it thus ‘proves’ homeopathy doesn’t work.
It also throws away any allegiance of homeopaths to their much vaunted individualisation which they claim invalidates most of the negative clinical trials.
This part of homeopathy shows it to clearly be a scam and a dangerous practice which should be outlawed.
“why are they not fined for advertising and promoting this fake vaccine to replace scientifically and clinically proven vaccines?” Where do you get such studies? I would love to hear this… because those studies just do not exist. You are uninformed and follow a mainstream mass conception. Thát’s dangarous. As are toxic vaccines.
Please take a look at this link for a start.
The Cochrane database lists 52 systematic reviews of vaccine clinical trials (that’s reviews of multiple studies of the type you say ‘just do not exist’)
A search of Medline for the keywords ‘vaccine’ and ‘clinical trial’ produced 11,826 hits, indicating the true scope of the studies you claim ‘just do not exist’.
Happy to fulfil your ‘love to hear this’ request.
This write up does nothing to show any proof that homeoprophylaxis is false. Instead, he attacks her education and calls her a quack with no foundation to this writing to back himself up.
To be clear…
Homeoprophylaxis is not biologically plausible. How so? You did not back this up with anything whatsoever. Prove your thesis.
There is no evidence that it works. Really? Have you even looked, or are you just being mainstream and whining about something that is undermining the $$ you get from giving ‘real’ vaccines with dangerous adjuvents in them.. hmmm..
And if you HAVE looked, where is that evidence that it DOESN’T work? The writer of this article is leaving this article incomplete without said evidence.
The last two of your ‘to be clear’ are opinions with no backup. Homeoprophylaxis has been around for over 100 years, it is NOT NEW. There should be something for you to express yourself better here. And no, I am no anti-vaxxer, but someone who likes truth in reporting. You can do better than this!
what a comment!
yes I have looked
and no, we do not have to prove that anything does not work in medicine – it is the other way round.
why don’t you familiarise yourself with the basics before commenting nonsense?
It’s not like that in a court of law…which is what all $$$pharmaceutical companies$$$ hide behind. They’re always innocent until proven guilty. You can only prove their drugs work in a lab and stupid “double blind” placebo controlled studies. Have you ever taken an experimental psychology course or quantitive/qualitive statistics and analysis course? It can’t really be done… it’s not translatable to real life. There’s physics, entropy, and energy in everything. It transfers…to cellular levels. That’s how this works
congratulations!
you have just realised that healthcare is not a court of law and functions differently
Quote: “Have you ever taken an experimental psychology course or quantitive/qualitive statistics and analysis course?” well, yes, I took the latter. Actually I am a computational biologist and that is a hell lot more stats than just one course. Actually I *work* in that field at a university and have published peer reviewed papers. I have seen hundreds of studies. You are correct, RCTs don’t really reflect real life. They reflect ideal conditions. In that sense, results (especially effect sizes) in RCTs tend to get smaller in real life conditions. I have never seen an effect in a real life setting that was not detectable in an RCT. If such happens, something went really wrong with your observational study design.
And no, homeopathy does not translate into entropy, energy and everything. In fact it violates these very theories to the core. And no, Judy, homeopathy does NOT work.
@Judy
Thank you for this erudite explanation. It will surely augment and enhance understanding of medicine.
I personally prefer the cosmic energy transmitted by crystal healers
Oh man I just need to get off this page. Obviously Edzard, with all of his “education”, has not had any mentors coaching his soft skills. Edzard, familiarize yourself with the basics of communicating to a blog audience and establishing common ground. You are doing nothing but make people sink their heals into their established beliefs. And yes, the medical field has many thought filters and disfunctional paradigms. Thankfully a paradigm shift is occurring in the field. But, I’ve yet to meet another Dr. who has read Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.

What $$ are they then? And have you any clue about Prof Ernst?
But ‘vaccines with dangerous adjuvents in them’… You did not back this up with anything whatsoever. Prove your thesis.
LOL! But if you believe homeoprophylaxis ‘works’, please feel free to present your evidence.
I never said I believed in homeoprophylaxis, or even in anti-vaxxing. I am neither. And, I never knew what the former was until just before I came to this site. I was suggesting that he back up his claim that it is false, period. I came for info – not propaganda – either way.
What do you mean, you don’t have to prove that anything doesn’t work in medicine? Are you nuts? Then what in the world are trials for, if not to prove (or disprove) what is being tested?
“… back up his claim that it is false…”
it is false because there is no evidence to support it – is that so difficult to understand?
@jesusknight
“What do you mean, you don’t have to prove that anything doesn’t work in medicine? Are you nuts? Then what in the world are trials for, if not to prove (or disprove) what is being tested?”
The way the scientific process works, as you clearly understand, is for someone to do experiments to investigate their hypothesis. (Experiments are ideally designed to disprove the hypothesis.) That’s the way we try to distinguish reality from nonsense. But please note, it is for the proposer of a hypothesis to do the experiments (and to do them well): anyone can suggest an idea then say “prove I’m wrong!”
That’s why your initial comment provoked a strong negative reaction: you’re asking other folk to prove someone’s belief/theory is wrong, and that’s not how things work in science. If you make a claim (e.g. that homeoprophylaxis works) you need to supply the evidence to back up the claim. In the case of homeoprophylaxis there is zero supportive evidence.
You asked a perfectly fair question, which I hope I’ve now answered.
jesusknoght said
I never said you did. I said if you believe…
Frank and Edzard have answered the rest of your comment.
Well, jesusknight, Hahnemann himself propagated Belladonna as homeoprophylaxis against scarlet fever. This was a HUGE hype in the 19th century – that is until JW Begbie looked into the mortality – which did NOT drop. That is a very robust proof that homeoprophylaxis does not work.
Aside that quote: “And if you HAVE looked, where is that evidence that it DOESN’T work?” It doesn’t work like this. YOU have to prove it works.
Anothher thing, jesusknight. If you think about undermining $$ one gets from vaccines, well. Boiron (one of the biggest manufacturers of homeopathic drugs) has a profit margin of 20%, i.o.w. exactly as a normal pharma company. It has a far better profit/risk ratio because there is no risky research expenses involved. In fact, some stakeholders of pharmaceutical companies hold stakes in homeopathic companies. Homeopathy works *exactly* as the normal pharma industry, or as Natalie Grams put it: Globuli are not brushed down from biologically raised trees.
The worth of Boiron stocks has been increasing almost relentlessly for years. There was a small setback in 2012 when they had to pay millions of dollars to settle a class-action lawsuit in the US because they couldn’t prove homeopathy works! After that their stocks have been increasing in worth at a far greater rate than big pharma.
Have a look at Bloomberg Markets for Boiron stocks Choose a five year diagram and try entering some pharma-companies in the comparison field. For example Merk ( MRK:US), Pfizer (PFE:US) and Glaxo (GSK:US).
You will see that Big Homeo seems to be a very much more lucrative business. Not the least considering the only bulk raw materials they need is water and sugar and their R/D consists mostly of paying homeopaths to write up biased made-for-marketing studies in homeopathy journals.
Edzar, dear – step back & take a broad look at your training in medicine and the wellness movement that is growing by leaps & bounds. Most of the world uses homeopathy and other nontoxic ways to promote true health & wellness. Homeopathy is used successfully with animals – so the healing affect is certainly not a placebo. This world can be seen from the FEAR perception or the LOVE perception. Your entire training was fear-based as can be felt through your raised blood pressure comment. The majority of your colleagues die quite young and the FDA admits that iatrogenic causes (just following doctors’ advice) are responsible for most deaths in the USA and that this generation will not outlive their parents. Vaccines are the lynchpin of these statistics and of the epidemic proportions of all manner of disease, dysfunction, early death, & destruction of the family & society.
There are no secrets from people who CHOOSE to use their Divinely provided brain. The US govt allowed Nazi scientists to continue their immoral & corrupt science thru pHARMa that also originated in Nazi germany. When you don’t discern what is evil & stand up against it – you get swallowed up by it and become not so different.
As long as you’re alive – you have the opportunity to seek humility, wisdom, & love…the truth always wins – are you so sure that your fear-based stance has more than a speck of truth?
Wake up! Stop adding to the anguish of countless families! Check out the wisdom of the cells & the biology of belief.

For Frank – we don’t live in the dark ages – when you begin to humbly seek the truth & go through the discomfort of confronting your erroneous & quite immature beliefs – the way you address another human being will become more human & refined. I know. You’re not there yet. Take a look at the mind valley website as well as other sites like my high vibrational life.
Why shouldn’t you aim to get what you truly desire – but you first need to learn. Don’t sabotage your own self. There’s much more to life than belittling others with your sad state of ignorance.
Sara,
you may believe and hold for truth whatever you want, e.g. that the sun rises in the west. If you see – after years of observation – that the sun never rose in the west, it is pretty safe to assume that your believe does NOT reflect the truth.
The same goes for homeopathy. It has been thoroughly debunked. Your statement that we do not live in the dark ages is correct. Homeopathy in fact *is* a cult that came straight out of the dark ages.
Jesus.
What a load of complete and utter bollocks. Makes a Bryan Hubbard WDDTY column seem rational by comparison.
You carry on believing, sweetikins. We’ll carry on living in the real world.

none of this is reliable evidence
maybe you should read this: http://edzardernst.com/2012/11/what-is-and-what-isnt-clinical-evidence-and-why-is-the-distinction-important/
We’ve been using HP as a family for 2 years now, right after my youngest was born. Every time I give my children the nosodes they always show a reaction, which means HP is working. The proof is in the pudding.
no, the placebo is in the pudding; the proof is in science.
The overly dilute nosodes (or whatever else) does nothing. Try giving the pudding without the nosodes a few times and you will get the same results. If you are rational enough and not too much of a wishful thinker, the striking similarity in outcomes might help you understand why there is no difference (because there is nothing in the preparations) and that you have spent too much money in something that does not exist.
@E
Of course you don’t have to vaccinate all your children, only those you wish to keep!
You can of course continue to rely on shaken water and feel smugly superior in your selfish flower-decorated bubble depending on everyone else around you keeping polio, measles or whatever ugly bugs away from your pure unvaccinated little snowflakes. But if and when disaster hits, you will be faced with your ignorant choice based on lies and denial. Perhaps then you will want to read Roald Dahl’s account of the time he lost his seven year old daughter to measles. This was in 1962, a few years before the measles vaccine became available:
http://www.roalddahl.com/roald-dahl/timeline/1960s/november-1962
That’s an extremely sad story Roald Dahl shared. As tragic as this story is, it has nothing to do with the conversation. His poor daughter had absolutely nothing on her side to help her immune system fight the measles. The discussion, I thought, was about using vaccines or HP to protect against infectious disease. I realize after reading the comments that followed my own that I think there’s a misunderstanding of how HP works. It seems that people have a misconception that HP claims to be a vaccine, in which there’s never been such a claim. Instead of creating an immunity, it actually teaches your immune system how to fight the infectious disease if you ever come in contact with it.
It’s very sad how people that have gotten on this conversation find it necessary to bash each other’s beliefs and intellect, but in the end we are our own people who need to decide what’s best for ourselves. My simple comment about “the proof is in the pudding” was not at all me trying to be smug or trying to confuse anyone, I was only trying to simply state that sometimes you just need to see it for yourself. It’s just an old turn of phrase, it has nothing to do with pudding in this case, which I think one person was confused that it had. In this case the phrase simply means “seeing is believing”. That being said, the commenter that corrected this old phrase to “the proof is in the science”, although I admit it just doesn’t have the same ring to it as the original, but is also true. When scientists conduct studies to prove or disprove, “seeing is believing” aka “the proof is in the pudding”.
Smite me… You seem to be a very reasonable person. Who on earth convinced you that homeopathy “teaches your immune system how to fight the infectious disease”? This is a sugar-coated fraud. Homeopathy does nothing and this has been established through robust evidence and properly controlled observations that transcend belief-based conclusions. What you are experiencing is random chance and coincidences…
…and the very well-established fact that humans have a very strong immune system to begin with!
Please, do not make the mistake to trust the health of your infants and children in “homeopathy and its kindred delusions”. This is an urge!
You say there is no evidence to prove that homeoprophylaxis works. That is only because you don’t want to see it. Entire countries have used it (having been issued from those countries versions of the CDC) to completely irradicate diseases! Yet another article written by someone so heavily brainwashed by pharmaceutical companies. Stop spreading your nonsense. I’m not interested in debating with people so will not be responding to ANY responses. Just thought you should know this person is talking utter crap and will no doubt take down this post as it is not in their interest to have the truth out there.
that’s what I call a well-argued position!!!
“This has the potential to kill thousands.” unlike conventional vaccines which has killed/ maimed thousands
unless you can provide evidence for your statement, we will have to assume that it was a deliberate stupidity to defame the already infamous anti-vax movement.
Gosh! What a rabid conversation.
Years ago I looked up the 1918 flu epidemic and homeopathic interventions. My recollection is that the % of deaths in the population following medical advice was much higher than the population using homeopathy.
On a personal side, I suppose the effects I experience using homeopathics might have something to do with some placebo effect, however when I have a cold and I take a homeopathic remedy for a specific symptom what happens to me is that that symptom goes away and another shows up. I take a remedy for the next symptom which then goes away and another shows up. This goes on for a few days and then I wake up feeling well i.e. no symptoms.
I’m thinking that IF my recovery is due to a placebo effect (and If I am correct that the placebo affects the brain and brings health or a change in symptoms due to my brain thinking in am getting well) I would go from feeling a symptom to being symptom free (as that is my goal) without the shifting symptoms that I experience in between waking up with a scratchy threat and waking up well later.
I suppose Docs will say that colds go away, no matter what, in some number of days. This is true as our systems are continuously working to keep us healthy and balanced at all times. However in the past 30 years if I get a cold away from home and my homeopathics it sure takes a lot more Kleenex and days of feeling sick for me to finally awaken feeling well again.
This may not specifically address homeoprophylaxis, however for those of us who live our lives aiming for wellness, (and having no reason to visit a doctors office more than once a year for our annual checkup) for those of us who use no pharmicudical drugs, but do use the health support of time tested herbs and homeopathic remedies and flower essence remedies the results of our healthy living can not be catagorized as nothing more than mind over body. I don’t know enough about the potential effects of the remedies I use to be able to predict what specific effect they will have, so my mind can’t choose what placebo effect to create.
As a final thought, I do check on and have seem that “natural” remedies can have side effects and interactions with other substances, however I have never seen a natural remedy with the kind of listing of dangerous side effects that we can see any day in commercials for miracle drugs. It makes sense for me to always use/try the most natural way to regain health.
Gosh! What a rabid comment.
https://edzardernst.com/2017/02/homeopaths-love-it-the-epidemiological-evidence-suggesting-that-homeopathy-works/
Taking supplements or herbs to boost ones immune system and shorten the duration of a cold is very different from what is being discussed here.. Of course a healthy person is less apt to contract a cold. There are many illnesses the body can naturally fight. The common cold is an example of this. It is the BIG diseases that the body alone can not fight, the diseases that have wiped out many people over the centuries that are the concern. I have been searching for REAL scientific evidence from an unbiased source to prove homeoprophylaxis works and I am unable to find such research. I would LOVE to see evidence and would love an alternative to modern vaccines. I believe in the effectiveness of vaccination I just wish there were purer vaccines available to us. Still I continue to get vaccinated to prevent the potential spread of a disease that could kill many.
“I just wish there were purer vaccines available to us”. I wonder what you mean by ‘purity’ in the context of vaccines, Denise.
Here us a little a little something on Edzard Ernst, at the bottom are other articles on this person, always check the background folks, looks like he, like most of these pushers of mainstream science, they all have their dodgey background. You watch, eventually a money trail from some mainstream entity will be found between him and them.
http://chiropracticlive.com/why-should-anyone-believe-what-professor-edzard-ernst-says-after-he-put-his-name-to-a-bbc-programme-he-now-describes-as-deception/
thank you – what exactly are you accusing me of?
I’m a CHRISTian and commanded to test everything in an age where information has increased as prophesied in the Old Testament. Many lies and the love of money is the root of every kind of evil, is one explanation GOD gives us.
This is why I distrust Big Pharma and their “studies.”
“Immune” from lawsuits.
Short window for lawsuits.
Sealed documents.
Loophole in sueing them closed by SCOTUS by saying vaccines are unavoidably unsafe.
Studies are not done to test multiple vaccines by different manufacturers, and this is a guess, because adverse results would be blamed on the other guy.
CDC has a monetary stake in many vaccines so there is s conflict of interest.
The history of vaccines is dubious at best giving credit where none is due. Before a comment is made on that I will offer an analogy. Just like when doctors began washing their hands outcomes for patients improved, it was the improvements in clean water, better sewage and plumbing that reduced infectious diseases that vaccines got the credit for. That is a historic fact, but men lie about history also.
Science – who should I trust. Dr Paul Thomas who wrote the Vaccine Friendly Plan, not anti vaccination at all, had a study done on his patients. By far the healthiest with the fewest visits are his completely unvaccinated patients I believe with 1 artistic in 700+, 2nd the partially vaccinated and lastly those vaccinated according to the CDC schedule – same dismal autism rate as stated by the very same CDC, I believe currently 1 in 50. Poor kids and parents. By the way he truly believes in informed consent and not bullying you into vaccinations with half the story because he has looked at the science.
HP like it or not it is more in line with how people, who have life long immunity, got viruses historically, either orally or inhaled. Vaccinations come with lots of things, adjuvants, otherwise never part of how viruses historically were spread. And if it ever happened in history when did populations ever get 2 or more viruses at the same time?
Hope this helps someone. Please consider these things.
why don’t you show us some good evidence that HP works?
Hi Edzard,
I’m not GOD so I don’t know everything but where is the evidence of its failings? There are many for vaccines. I’m certain you know them.
Thanks for reading my post. I agree there should be evidence but who decides what is evidence or what kind of testing or trials. If the vaccine manufacturers lie in their testing, and they have, and the reporting they do they cut their legs out from under themselves. You don’t get sued to the tune of over 40 billion for nothing. For example no true inert placebo but instead using another vaccine to skew results. They also use short test periods in line with the small windows from vaccine to injury. How long would it take to test the current CDC schedule with all the doses? They may have convinced you and many others but just another lie I hope is fully exposed soon. I hope Del Bigtree is successful in his attempt to have a real debate with the pharna giants and top pro vaxers. I don’t think they’ll do it though and chance the exposure.
Maybe it’s because I am tired playing dad to my granddaughter and doing things more naturally to get my parents off the meds that have hurt them, even stopping my mom’s heart and putting her in the ER, but I believe you cited a source, assessed it and gave no evidence for your assertions. No need to give them to me while I was not pro vaccine nor antivax I like most trusted the sources that I no longer trust. The 30+ billion law suits for lying to the Fed government in addition to other facts that have come to light are enough. HP is at least if not more safe since the virus is more attenuated and void of adjuvants. Boosters reveal no lifelong immunity in vaccines. And you loose the life long benefits of the natural course of getting and getting over viruses.
Frank is right, GOD hates murder but also injury and requires restitution. The vaccine manufacturers have murdered and injured hundreds of thousands with real restitution not possible for the vast majority.
Why do I mention GOD so much? Because HE made all this possible, no I don’t blame HIM for it for HE did not force anyone to do evil, and as HE says, vengeance is mine. Justice won’t be had here but will be served in eternity. Thanks for your post but I couldn’t disagree with you more.
That’s 100 lawsuits for every citizen of the US, isn’t it?
Pardon me I left out the word dollar.
I can only reply to what you said, not what you think you said. There is a difference between what ought to be and what is, but I don’t think you understand the distinction.
@Joe
The 30+ billion dollars you quote is irrelevant to anything, Joe. That’s just the figure that optimistic (greedy?) plaintiffs are trying to claim through courts of law. And courts of law have not proved to be reliable or even relevant when it comes to judging matters of science. Their decisions are based on verbal disputes, not dependable evidence.
“when did populations ever get 2 or more viruses at the same time”
Quite frequently. Hep B, Hep C, Hep E, CMV, HIV, EBV, varicella-zoster, HSV, HPV frequently coexist with each other and with other viral infections, for instance.
“HP like it or not it is more in line with how people, who have life long immunity, got viruses historically, either orally or inhaled.”
There are many other routes for acquiring virus infections. I don’t follow your reasoning here at all. It seems to be in line with magical thinking.
“Science – who should I trust”
You could start with your family doctor.
“the healthiest with the fewest visits are his completely unvaccinated patients”
The uptake of medical services is not a good measure of health. Parents who do not take their children to be vaccinated are less likely to take up other health checks and screening visits, and less likely to pick up on health problems generally.
“I’m a CHRISTian and commanded to test everything”
Testing everything rather than accepting dogma is the first prerequisite of scientific enquiry.
“Studies are not done to test multiple vaccines by different manufacturers, and this is a guess, because adverse results would be blamed on the other guy”
Yes they are. Don’t guess: check your facts.
“an age where information has increased as prophesied in the Old Testament
I don’t understand what you mean by this, though I would be interested if you could give the reference.
“Just like when doctors began washing their hands outcomes for patients improved, it was the improvements in clean water, better sewage and plumbing that reduced infectious diseases that vaccines got the credit for.”
Ignaz Semmelweiss started the practice of hand-washing based on careful observation of outcomes in a maternity unit. He was rewarded by incarceration in an insane asylum and an early death, probably from being beaten up. However, hand-washing can prevent the transmission of a great many infections (including very common problems such as staphylococcal food poisoning, flu and the common cold) and there is a lot of room for improvement here.
It is certainly true that improved sanitation (together with an understanding of microbial causes of disease) has had a major impact on public health, and this is generally credited appropriately. On the other hand it has much less of a role to play in the case of measles, hepatitis B, smallpox and many others.
“same dismal autism rate as stated by the very same CDC, I believe currently 1 in 50”
Again I’m not clear what you are saying here. There is no evidence whatsoever of a connection between autism and vaccination, and the apparent increase is due to improved diagnosis.
“Immune” from lawsuits.
Short window for lawsuits.
Sealed documents.
Loophole in sueing them closed by SCOTUS by saying vaccines are unavoidably unsafe.
CDC has a monetary stake in many vaccines so there is s conflict of interest.
It is rather hard for me to comment on all that, which only applies to one country, but not one I am particularly familiar with.
“I will offer an analogy.”
I find it rather hard to construe the paragraph that follows as being an analogy. Are you saying that the reduction in some infections as a result of vaccination is analagous to the reduction of others as a result of sanitation?
“men lie about history”
Very true. One big advantage of science over the humanities is that individual opinions count for nothing – the only arbiter of truth is Nature.
Thank you Dr Julian for your response. Be quick to listen slow to speak…James 1:19 Saw you post a few days ago and paused to think and question. Yes you could get a mosquito bite, cut your foot on dirty ground, drink infected water and have someone sneeze in your face but in the vast majority of cases the news, CDC and WHO highlight a single virus. I found a “top 10” list of worldwide virus outbreaks but none were multiple viruses. I asked some people ages 47 to 85 (not very scientific I know) but 1 in 12 said they heard one time of a person who was host to more than one virus and none given true informed consent about all the components of the vaccines they or their kids were administered. The vast, vast majority are single viruses otherwise that would be a great selling point for the pharmaceutical companies and the CDC, or highly unlikely.
These issues will all be resolved by GOD’s justice with the evil punished. More important is your salvation and anyone who reads posts like this one. Logically dogma is “completely” appropriate if it’s true and only then. GOD will make that clear as well. The problem: GOD is true and every man a liar.
the only arbiter of truth is Nature.
The only arbiter of truth is GOD. Men study HIS creation, nature, and only some come close to the truth and others outright lie and there are those in between. The rest struggle with who is truly credible, with respect to medicine and science I fit in this group. You may have guessed I filter everything through the Bible…. By no means! Let God be true though every one were a liar, as it is written, “That you may be justified in your words, and prevail when you are judged.” (Romans 3:4, ESV) The word of GOD calls me to sober thinking nothing magical here believe it or not.
“Witch” doctors, pun intended, should I listen to:
The Dr that diagnosed my wife’s lupus offered us conventional medical intervention, which her sister also with lupus has followed, the result being always sick, in pain and overweight after 10 years of conventional medicine, which we declined to pursue natural alternatives. She then told us my wife she could no longer be her patient. I understand that is not how doctors are supposed to “practice” medicine, oh well. We would have signed a waiver so she could at least monitor my wife. With no medical supervision but some direction from a Dr we met briefly, after a year and a few months we found that Dr again who was not quick to pull out the Rx pad and started her own practice. She checked my wife and in her words her lupus came back zero. As a side note every time my sisters-in-law visits and eats as we do taking the natural remedies my wife does before she leaves she is pain free and puts her cane aside – how magical.
Or the Medicaid Dr who on our first visit with our granddaughter was ready to put her on a schedule to get her caught up on vaccinations, who at birth only got vitamin K. We declined and heard an echo, she can’t be my patient… you know the rest. A gift from GOD, 15 months, sick 3 times, taken care of naturally by us, her new Dr, one who does vaccinate and gets it, said we did the right things to get her well.
A doc friend of mine who accepts that as part of the medical community he is required to be vaccinated shared with me that they won’t know for years what the vaccine he just got will do. Do I trust him, not my regular physician, or you or someone else. He said this to me as a friend so I believe him. Would he say the same to his patients? Wish I had thought to ask that years ago back in NY. Or the Dr…that’s enough. There is no science for each of those episodes and more where a Dr shot the medical community in the foot.
While I accept dogma from GOD, if you mean man, I agree I am not quick to accept their dogma. Vaccine injury does not ask your level of education, income or any other demographic. So many in the anti-vax movement are from a variety of demographics. That being said those who do not vax tend to be more educated and of higher income brackets who test first then decide about the need for medical attention. You statement about the uptake of medical services could be right but also could be wrong! You would need more information to support your statement and not blanket non-vaxers with information you could not possibly know. An example of how our testing methods fall short.
Information / reference – Daniel 12 please read in context. Applicable to all information because all truth belongs to GOD.
Because there is no temptation except that which is common to man 1 Cor 10:13 and The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jer 17:9. In other words if there were a person completely honest in a particular field, do you think that person could assert with confidence that every person in his field was as he claims to be – no, not at all. Therefore anything in creation that has a human hand on it also has hearts with varying degrees of integrity and evil as GOD describes. No one can claim any advantage because letters or titles on a name do not , never has and never will confer integrity with it.
I am sure we all could say more but my post is not intended to be a bible. There is a bible verse for that as well which states: When words are many, sin is unavoidable, but he who restrains his lips is wise. I appreciate the fact that you at least made me pause, ask questions, (as I stated test) and think though my personal experiences and learning have me not agreeing with you.
@Joe
From your comment I’m guessing that the god you think is the source of all things true is the one worshipped by Christians. Please will you tell us how you came to choose this particular god? Did you first also consider the gods of Islam and Judaism (they’re supposed to be the same as the Christian god but they offer quite different versions of ‘truth’). Did you consider the gods of the Hindu and Sikh religions or the views of god expressed in Jainism and Buddhism.
All of these religions believe they have the truth, yet the truths all seem to differ. So please tell us what criteria you used to come down in favour of the Christian god. I’m sure if you’re using your god as a debating point you’ll have more to offer than “it’s what I was brought up to believe”.
Dear Professor Frank Odds
There is only ONE God; all around you and inside you, for goodness sake!
Cheers
if you say so!
but why then did mankind fight each other incessantly since we began to worship, because we did not appreciate those who were praying to another god than we did?
“did not appreciate those who were praying to another god”
Or indeed praying to the same god but in a different way (Catholics vs. Church of England, Catholics vs. Hugenots, Calvinists vs. Lutherans, Arians vs. Athanasians, Sunni vs. Shiite…).
CORRECT!
Hi Frank,
Thx for reading my post. I’m no theologian. Just a born again believer walking in love and obedience to my GOD endeavoring to be prepared to give an answer for the hope that is within me with gentleness and respect. Yes I am a born again CHRISTian called to know, serve and love my GOD and test everything, the two are not mutually exclusive.
While I am asked to have faith like a child, innocent and trusting, GOD, the CHRISTian GOD, doesn’t ask me to park my brain outside. For example I believe that if my GOD did not exist there is no amount of futile physical, mental or emotional exertion I can do that can create HIM, not to mention at that point HE would be a created god. On the other hand no amount of unbelief from all of mankind throughout all our earthly history can force HIM out of or to never have existed. Even men of science and all mankind in general are left with two options: matter is eternal, we came from matter and created a non existent god or GOD is eternal, created man and all things and man desires to know HIM or act as if HE doesn’t exist. Maybe I’m just a very rational crazy person.
I am hispanic and could easily question why I should follow a dead Jewish guy who I am a few 1000 years removed from. As I tell everyone the only reason to believe anything is because it’s true. I was brought up Catholic but not by parents strong in the faith, my mom far more believing than my dad. As I grew I questioned more even playing Devil’s advocate opposite CHRISTians who had no or poorly articulated their answers. Near the end of my time as a catholic I would just go to church stare at the image of JESUS on the cross in church as I listened to the priest’s message and wonder.
I met a former Pentecostal who shared some amazing, interesting and strange experiences with me who was going to a Catholic Church. Interesting how you can start with the truth and make up the rest which is what we believe the Catholic and Pentecostal denominations have done. We married and long story short found ourselves in an independent church where in one sermon the pastor said “don’t take it from me, read or for yourself.” I’ve read my entire bible and come away believing it’s true, convinced! Or you could believe the natural progression of science where now some like GOD denying Lawrence Krauss explain a universe out of nothing: https://youtu.be/46sKeycH3bE
Please carefully listen to his explanation, test. I have one closer to the truth but won’t share it right now that as a thinking person I did not get or hear from another teacher.
We all have the same evidence, even in the vaccine/HP debate but when we argue do we argue from all points in other words the truth.
I did not see reply buttons for Dr Julian, Edward or Gregg so I will answer here. Hope you read their responses.
Gregg: If you were being sarcastic I get it but if not the HOLY SPIRIT only resides in believers but GOD has given everyone a conscience.
Edzard and Dr Julian: If it is as atheists say then you have your answer: mankind or manselfish following the imaginations of his mind, idols created in the image of man. If GOD exists though I believe some believers took part in these wars, you have two possible answers. 1-see above. It is logically possible for there to be a GOD and unholy men do as above while a holy GOD is keeping account of those who truly follow HIM as well as those who don’t. 2-the worst possible answer for unbelievers that GOD called men to war against unbelievers. The reason unbelievers reject this is because individuals can’t conceive of anyone holier than themselves and can’t fathom standing before a holy GOD who knows the secrets of the heart. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living GOD. Contemplate that-honoring father and mother while no: murder, adultery, stealing, lying, coveting etc. Not that I believe that happened after CHRIST ascended where the vast majority of these conflicts took place. JESUS warmed Peter, those who live by the sword die by it.
In case you wonder if I really test listen to Krauss and see if my assessment is correct. He redefines some terms. How convenient. He says something about particles that is conflicting. If he is correct about jumping in and out of existence then they have a power we know nothing about but I am sure he can define. Are those particles time traveling or realm traveling? In the full interview if I used the wrong link he says there is no evidence for GOD in creation. If he was looking how would he know if he found it if everything is scientifically explained. Think about it!
Forgot this at the risk of another analogy: does the vaccine GOD exist regardless of men on opposite sides of the argument. Of course they are independent of each other.
Hi Joe,
Thanks for the response. We obviously have a fundamentally different view of the world we live in. I don’t see the hand of any loving, interventionist god anywhere. From your comment you see both nature and God as the only arbiters of ‘truth’: however, nowhere do you define exactly what you mean by God (or, for that matter, ‘truth’: you use the word in a different sense from meaning ‘objectively determined fact’). Without precise definitions, anything is entirely beyond discussion. (My ‘loving, interventionist’ adjectives begin to define what most Christians seem to think about their god but it’s still a long way from anything precise enough to debate rationally.)
I’m not surprised that you find Lawrence Krauss difficult or impossible to believe. Like most present-day physics, his explanation of a universe (or cosmos) originating from nothing flies in the face of everyday human experience. One useful starting point is to recognize Krauss’s very precise (physical) definition of ‘nothing’.
You say “We all have the same evidence, even in the vaccine/HP debate but when we argue do we argue from all points in other words the truth.” I find this somewhat weird, and certainly don’t accept the first (comprehensible) part. There’s a world of difference between verifiable evidence and supposition; opponents of vaccination seem to work entirely with the latter.
I’d like to suggest you read Steven Novella’s The skeptics’ guide to the universe, which is a very good account of how easily we humans deceive ourselves, but I fear you’re too far gone in the world you’ve created for your beliefs to be shaken up by any suggestion of self-delusion. So I’ll just close by saying “good luck to you, Joe”.
Hi Frank,
Thank you for responding. Most people believe all religions are fundamentally the same and superficially different but the opposite is true. Though I was catholic I now consider myself CHRISTian. In the same way men disagree about just about everything, vaccines vs HP for example, the same is true for world-views. JESUS said make disciples not denominations, the results of both men’s disagreements and at worst desiring to be in a sense a god, btw the error of men.
We stand in awe of nature for all we say it provides yet fear its destructive power. We talk about good and bad bacteria but both are required in the proper balance in our bodies. There are other examples but our description of GOD is the most important. Statements or questions about HIS character are always one sided making GOD an idol, of our imagination, a straw man to debunk. The GOD I serve is not only loving but holy, just and even wrathful.
The primary reason for suffering is sin. Which sins should GOD prohibit, only the big sins which are evident in the question of global sufferings or the innocent victim or all sins including the “white lie.” If HE dealt with every sin because HE is holy, sinless, HE would also deal with every individual, me included. Justice is good but perfect justice will be decided by GOD. We however want justice here and sometimes we get it. Unfortunately the vaccine manufacturers are the only entity immune from it, man’s decision. So what about suffering imposed by the pharmaceutical giants?
By GOD I mean the CHRISTian GOD, all knowing and powerful as well as other attributes. Why? This goes to the meaning of what is evidence. By the way here is Krauss saying science can redefine words: https://youtu.be/SK35bv3M7yg. I was understanding him just fine. Do you think particles popping in and out of existence, his description, would be proof of GOD for him, not on your life. With respect to nature for example it’s either evolution or creation, we all have the same evidence interpreted differently, incorrectly or lied about which can happen on both sides. Yes I am supposed to test CHRISTians also. I believe but can’t prove GOD’s order of creation was intentional to not fit with evolution. GOD’s word tells us the wisdom of the world is as foolishness to GOD. A truth claim to be accepted or rejected. I will be talking more about truth when I respond to Edzard. What of dating methods that are thrown out if they show a young earth because you need an old earth for evolution? Btw all dating methods are handicapped by assumptions.
Faith is perfectly rational. Unfortunately when science is GOD and all explanations can only be scientific a Krauss, and all who believe that way, can say they can’t prove there is no GOD as Krauss has stated but don’t mean it. For then rationally they should say GOD is a plausible explanation until proven otherwise. Yes I listen carefully to him. Did you pause when you wrote flies in the face of everyday human experience since that is what CHRISTians believe about GOD and HIS miracles: creation out of nothing (truly nothing which in a debate with Dinesh D’Souza, Krauss says truly nothing), parting the Red Sea, conception without intimacy, resurrecting a body etc.
What I mean about all the evidence is the good, bad and ugly. The idea behind vaccines sounds reasonable. If I use Krauss’s truth claim, nothing is 100% in science then I can’t claim they never work and the vaccine pushers can’t say they do either. But who gets to define work. Have you ever asked yourself how do they determine the efficacy of a vaccine? They would have to know every person who has been vaccinated, whether or not they’ve been exposed to the wild strain to test and verify if the vaccine strain protected them. Impossible, so they need to guess and it will always be in their favor. Or what of the people who catch the vaccine strain through shedding, I am certain you’ve heard of that, is that reported accurately? Too long so finally there is: immunity for manufacturers, vaccine court, sealed cases, most cases thrown out, the inept VAERS with only 1% of reporting because vaccines supposedly don’t cause injury. If this guy is lying they should sue him and put him in jail, https://youtu.be/ApH3y9aXiMc. Hope you listen to the whole video. Suffice to say if you or anyone could prove similar for HP they would be even but that smoking gun isn’t there. Vaccines are found wanting for much and destroy lives in other ways also. This is what I mean by all the evidence. There will be more in my post to Edzard. Hope you consider these things.
@“Joe”
Doesn’t it say somewhere in the code of christian religious ethics (the bible), that you are not allowed to tell lies? Ignorantly propagating dangerous antivaccine untruths is not going to be taken lightly at the gates of heaven!
@Joe
Since this blog is concerned with pseudo-medicine and not religion, I’m not going to react to most of your comment, even though the border between the two is often very blurry.
But on the subject of vaccination, you said: “Have you ever asked yourself how do they determine the efficacy of a vaccine? They would have to know every person who has been vaccinated, whether or not they’ve been exposed to the wild strain to test and verify if the vaccine strain protected them. Impossible, so they need to guess and it will always be in their favor.”
That’s exactly what happens, Joe. In the UK. conditions like measles, polio, rubella and mumps are notifiable diseases which means that, by law, doctors have to notify a (defined) authority of every case that occurs. In the USA, the CDC or State Health Board is the place where notifiable diseases are reported. Until 2000, when measles was almost eradicated in the USA, measles was a legally notifiable disease across the USA, and it still is, in some states. (I’m not going to take the time to look up the other vaccine-related diseases in the USA: many or most have been notifiable in the past: it’s only the success of the vaccination programs that took them off the list.
So we know (in the UK and many other countries) all the cases of notifiable diseases. We know exactly what proportion of infants have received vaccines against these diseases. And we can see the effects very clearly. So I suggest you take a look at this and stop pushing the total nonsense you’re pushing against vaccination, because you’re contributing to killing people, Joe and God says very clearly in the bible that you shouldn’t be doing that.
I hope you don’t thin you are to only one to receive serious threats;
some of us still do have the integrity to use their name.
@Joe: thank you for your post! It is amazing and such a blessing to know that I’m not the only one here that the Lord, Jesus has chosen to proselytize the masses….I am of course the most humble, most important and spiritually advanced but having troops like you to call on is important! I, like you, recognize my overwhelming superiority to the majority of lessers the Lord has inexplicably filled the planet with. I’m sure we’ll meet one day in heaven. Well I know I’ll be there, I’m just guessing about you…but I can put in a good word if you’d like, I have pull.
Hi Michael,
I hope and pray we both find ourselves in GOD’s presence but please take care of the posts you write. Please reread your post in light of (please read in context) Philippians 2:3-7 and Romans 14:4. Fight the good fight!
@Joe: the Old Testament is history become myth….the New Testament is myth become history.
God is and will forever be just the voice in your head, irrespective of your arrogance, self-righteousness and powers of self-delusion. You should consider looking into humility-training, you’ll begin to recognize you’re not all that special and the grand designer really has no particular interest in whether you live or die. Just like the rest of us, and just as it should be.
Hi Michael,
Thank you for your response. I gave you the benefit of the doubt because followers of CHRIST are not all in the same place but thank you for the revelation that my first impression was correct. I said nothing arrogant by asking someone I thought was CHRISTian to show more humility in their post, it’s biblical. You also seem to describe the post you wrote that I responded to. I also stand behind my posts since I don’t need to know it all but enough, especially what is public record on the lies of big pharma and the vaccine manufacturers. Hope you consider these things.
You are explicitly holding health professionals to a higher standard of evidence than yourself and then you contradict their advice. What are we supposed to make of that?
Yes they are to be held to a higher standard. They are saying a product is safe and effective that they needed immunity from lawsuits for yet that has killed and injured thousands. I have no such products. Any other product would have been allowed to fail out of the market if it were a car, cell phone, food item even pet food.
I worked for a pet food distributor that was required to recall over a million $ in pet food due to ecoli but vaccines kill people and they have a blanket called safe and effective. How backwards is that? Please keep in mind I did not cause all the news that is a matter of public record. All they did was keep saying they’re safe when they knew otherwise. Btw that was a very small part of a national recall. I knew enough about that also but not everything. I was the accountant required to track the product, refunds to customers and reimbursement from the manufacturer. Why did they not get away with it but vaccine manufacturers just keep going to the bank. Not to mention the CDC pushing vaccines they have $hares in. Quite the conflict of interest.
“but vaccines kill people”
“the CDC pushing vaccines they have $hares in”
Saying something you believe to be true does not make it true, Joe
At the top of the page, it says “Please remember: if you make a claim in a comment, support it with evidence”
I see no evidence and that which is claimed without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
A higher standard of EVIDENCE. Can’t you read?
you have to check out this article about isaac golden, omg!!

With a criminal record of multiple counts of child sexual abuse and violence I am surprised that he is even allowed to stand for political office, or to treat potentially vulnerable adults and children. In the UK he would fail the mandatory background checks required in order to work with these groups.

“By now, you are probably wondering who wrote this article. It was Cathy Lemmon, BA, C.HP, D.Psc, Co-Founder/Director of Homeoprophylaxis: A Worldwide Choice for Disease Prevention, she is also working on future conferences for the promotion of HP. She has studied HP with Isaac Golden of Australia and Ravi Roy and Carola Lage-Roy of Germany. She also has certificates in homeopathic treatment of vaccine injury as well as, through the ARHF in the Netherlands, treatment of epidemics and trauma. She completed studies at the School of Homeopathy and is completing specialized homeopathic studies through Gesundes Bewußtsein in Germany as well as post-graduate work in homeopathy through the College of Practical Homeopathy in London.
With all these ‘qualifications’, she has obviously escaped any education in real science and evidence-based medicine; if not she would know that her views are not just wrong but also dangerous. To Be clear:
Homeoprophylaxis is not biologically plausible.
There is no evidence that it works.
The concept misleads people to think that conventional immunizations are superfluous.
This has the potential to kill thousands.”
If you are trained in this topic and have expertise and can cite the studies supporting your claims, please present this evidence. Your apparent unqualified opinion lacks references. And one of the major issues you’re missing is the high risk of vaccine injury verses the safety of Homeoprophylaxis. Here is an example of how well it works, in what time frame: https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/homeopathy/homeoprophylaxis-in-india/
Kerri
What bit of the “MD, PhD, FMedSci, FRSB, FRCP, FRCPEd” after Edzard’s name at the top of the page did you miss?
A link to a blog post on a quack website is NOT evidence. Those graphs are taken from self-published books. Not one properly-conducted study is linked to.
Ah, “vaccine injury”. The siren-call of the charlatan. Care to elaborate on this? With decent evidence?
Ah.
No.
You won’t be able to.
“Vaccine injury” is a fake diagnosis attached to anything the quacks want to use to bilk their marks out of money.
A fake treatment for a fake diagnosis.
Run along now, Kerri.
This isn’t evidence, it is advertising. Eight out of ten owners may say that their cats prefer it, but you need something a bit more concrete when it comes to people’s health.
