UNBELIEVABLY, I have just received yet another text to come for ‘my’ flu and covid vaccinations. When I called a friend, she said she’d had another text message too. This is in spite of neither of us ever going for these jabs and having opted out. Now, we can’t be bothered to go through the rigmarole of opting out and just ignore the texts.
As the NHS seems determined to take no notice of the fast-growing evidence of harms and brain damage that can be caused by vaccines, I thought I would take a look at its recommended vaccine schedule.
It’s a frightening list, starting just after birth. For babies of eight weeks, the so-called six-in-one vaccination, the rotavirus vaccination and the menB vaccination (meningococcal group B bacteria) are all indicated. The six-in-one supposedly offers protection against diphtheria, hepatitis B, haemophilus influenzae type B, polio, tetanus and whooping cough.
At 12 weeks, babies can be given the six-in-one again, plus second doses of the MenB and rotavirus vaccinations.
At 16 weeks, the six-in-one vax is given once more, this time with the addition of the Pneumococcal vaccination.
And then at a year, the notorious MMR – measles, mumps and rubella – is injected. The NHS website advises: ‘Through immunisation, you have the power to protect your children from 17 dangerous diseases before the age of two.’
The NHS hasn’t finished jabbing children yet, by any means. At three years, four months (a very precise age) pre-school children can be given the MMR plus the now four-in-one pre-school booster. For this jab, hepatitis B and influenza have disappeared from the list but diphtheria, polio, tetanus and whooping cough remain.
From two to 15 years, the children’s flu vaccination is recommended annually until year 11, the final year of compulsory school education.
Lastly, at ages 12 to 13, the HPV (human papillomavirus vaccine) plus the three-in-one teenage booster (tetanus, polio and diphtheria) may be given.
Oxford University, and possibly other universities, are now telling students to make sure they have the MMR, HPV and MenACWY shots before they arrive to start their course. This last shot supposedly protects against meningitis and sepsis. Universities and colleges can’t insist that incoming students have all these jabs as a condition of acceptance, but you can be pretty sure that anybody who holds out will be made to feel a pariah and accused of putting others at risk.
So far, none of these jabs aimed at babies and young people is compulsory but there is immense, continuing pressure to have the full complement before reaching adulthood.
Then, unless you are pregnant, when you will be advised to have the flu, pertussis and Covid-19 jabs, you are let off the hook until age 65, when the badgering starts again.
From 65 you are advised to have the flu jab every year plus the shingles and pneumococcal shots. At ages 75 to 79, you can have the shot against RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), and at 75+, the covid jab spring and winter.
I sometimes wonder how I have survived as a perfectly healthy person into my 80s without ever having any of these jabs. Well, not quite; I did have the diphtheria shot as a baby, but until I read these latest NHS vaccine lists I had no idea it was still being offered. When did anybody last have diphtheria? What is it, anyway?
Despite this jabbing onslaught, our children and young people are far from well. Autism is greatly on the increase, and teenagers are suffering from crippling anxiety, depression and a variety of problems such as eating disorders, body dysmorphia and ADHD; none of which seemed to exist when I was a teenager. Or if they did, they were extremely rare.
Jane Wills, who writes on these pages, described how her son became severely autistic 20 years ago, soon after having the MMR and meningitis C shots. He has never recovered. In her most recent article, Jane also pointed out how Andrew Wakefield has been systematically demonised since suggesting a possible link between the combined MMR and serious diseases.
She wrote: ‘Doctors have lived in fear and trembling since Dr Andrew Wakefield raised concerns about the potential links between the MMR and severe bowel disease and autism in 1998. This was enough to have him persecuted, prosecuted, defrocked and driven out of the land.’
The demonisation continues. A double-page spread in the Daily Mail on October 23 was headlined: ‘Return of Andrew Wakefield, the anti-vax ‘supervillain’: Struck off for false claims the MMR jab caused autism, he reinvented himself in the US as a heroic medical martyr. Now he’s back in the UK spreading his dangerous creed’.
A far-reaching, closely researched paper by the McCullough Foundation, published on October 27, and to which Wakefield was one of the contributors, suggested that the early combined childhood vaccines – the six-in-one for instance – may be the greatest avoidable risk for the development of autistic spectrum disorder. This research was either rubbished or completely ignored in the mainstream media. Along with Wakefield, Dr Peter McCullough is usually called out as an anti-vaxxer activist by the mainstream and therefore vilified as spreading dangerous misinformation when both should be lauded as heroes.
Now, although I have personal experience of the relentless pressure for older people to have these multiple jabs, quite honestly until I looked at the NHS website, I had no idea that babies and young children were subjected to quite so many jabs at a very early age. In America, I’m told that youngsters are given up to 72 vaccines by the age of 18.
I am sure that the number and intensity of these childhood vaccines in the UK has increased enormously since my grandchildren, now all in their 20s, were babies. I am also sure that if those of us who have done our research don’t do all we can to protest, they will go on increasing.
Surely, it stands to reason that injecting noxious substances containing aluminium and mercury into tiny undeveloped bodies must have some effect, and that this cumulative effect, when the blood-brain barrier is still porous, has at least the possibility of causing lasting brain damage and more than likely physical damage as well.
Today’s young people are the most injected in history – as well as perhaps the most neurotic and troubled. I would be extremely surprised if there was not a connection with the barrage of completely unnecessary vaccines being injected into their growing bodies.
Perhaps one day the truth will out, as it eventually was with thalidomide. We can only hope.
