“Even without mass vaccination, smallpox would have died out anyway. It was already on its way out.”
—Thomas Mack, M.D., M.P.H CDC Meeting; June 20, 2002
In 1796, a farmer by the name of Edward Jenner thought that if dairymaids contracted cowpox they would be immune to smallpox.542 Jenner removed cowpox infected fluid from a dairymaid named Sara Nelms and injected it into the arm of a healthy eight year-old boy, James Phipps.543 Later the boy was injected with smallpox and then re-inoculated twenty more times.544Phipps never contracted smallpox, but ended up dying at the young age of 20 from tuberculosis.545 This did not stop Jenner, he also inoculated his own son who ended up dying at the age of 21, also from tuberculosis.546 These two experiments are the foundation for which the current vaccination program in the U.S. is based—two human experiments, of which both participants died from tuberculosis. It is a program that is completely unscientific and as George Bernard Shaw puts it, vaccines are a “filthy piece of witchcraft” for which there is no benefit to humanity.547
1807 was the first year that governments began enacting compulsory vaccination.548 The more governments required their citizens to comply with vaccination, the stronger the resistance grew.549 Anti-vaccination groups formed arguing compulsory vaccination violated civil liberties and that no medical procedure should be forced upon an individual.550 Other valid arguments consisted on the fact that vaccines were killing thousands of innocent men, women and children.551 Some countries, such as India found that a vaccine derived from cows and then injected into humans was completely barbaric.552
However, it was the highest vaccinated populations that had the most severe outbreaks. For example, in a 1902 smallpox epidemic in England and Whales, the Report of Registrar General of England reported 2,464 deaths from smallpox.553 821 of those deaths were in the vaccinated and 791 deaths were in the unvaccinated—852 deaths the condition was not stated.554 The way the Registrar General recorded whether or not a person was vaccinated was by the scar that the inoculation left on the individual’s arm.555 Many times these individuals were vaccinated and there was no scar on the arm, meaning the vaccine did not take.556 So if there were no scars on the arm the individual was listed as “Condition Not Stated.”557 If one were to add the conditions not stated to the vaccinated, this would further raise the death toll in the vaccinated to 1,673.
Another example includes a smallpox outbreak in New York City in 1901 and 1902. There was a report circulated by the City Health Department to doctors stating that the majority of smallpox deaths occurred in the vaccinated. The report stated, “Experience in the recent outbreaks in New York City, contrary to the general opinion, has shown that the majority of the cases occurring here are not in the unvaccinated persons, but in those who have been vaccinated successfully some years previously.”558 Another example involved Germany, the best vaccinated country in Europe.559 The U.S. Public Health Report for three years, 1908, 1909 and 1910 reported 917 cases of smallpox.560 Only 143 of these cases were in the unvaccinated.561 The remaining 774 cases occurred in the vaccinated.562 Vaccinated individuals were 541 percent more likely to contract smallpox versus the unvaccinated.
Vaccinated children died at an increased rate compared to the unvaccinated. The Registrar of England (during the time these were the most prominent authorities in the world) reported that during the years 1905 through 1913 more children died from vaccination than from the smallpox disease itself.563 In nearly a ten year period there was a 375 percent increase in deaths among vaccinated children compared to the non-vaccinated.
